Couldn’t that potentially fuck up the surrounding ecosystem?

Meanwhile, the actual devil (Lucifer) couldn’t give to shits about being mocked lol.

If he were real of course.

The amazing thing to me is that they can continuously do shit like this, and yet there will always be “normies” (and even some in the comedy industry themselves) whining about how the left is ruining comedy blah blah…

It’s just insane the automatic benefit of the doubt that the right gets on every fucking issue.

Maybe you’re new to US elections, but these campaigns start almost immediately after the previous election.

It’s an endless fucking nightmare, and unfortunately for us all, this is also urgent.

The incentive should be “do this or you lose your job”

I’m educated properly and it takes me a very long time to sift through the mud to stay informed.

I really don’t have this issue…?

I don’t go on facebook or other social media so I don’t see that bullshit. And I don’t watch news on the TV, be it 24 hour news or any other.

I get most of my news from news.google.com, and then clicking on “full coverage” (or whatever that button says now they’re constantly changing it) so I can get an overview of several sources reporting on the same topic.

I will sometimes learn about news on lemmy, but I will always independently confirm it (takes 15 seconds) before considering it fact.

It’s so fucking easy, I’m sorry. There is no excuse.

Ya know, I agree with the part about it being necessary and needing luck…

But then I realized that you’re the person who posts links to “Civil Religion” in every goddamn thread.

Give it a rest.

If this country ever gets past this (big if), we are going to need a bevy of new laws, if not an entirely new Constitution.

Regarding this topic, either no pardons, or a much stricter review process that does not allow open abuse like this.

A distraction? Are you for real? This is serious shit too.

You really know that you’re representing your constituents, when your bosses tell you not to fucking talk to them.

It is if you educate them properly.

Meanwhile, I just came from a thread about Musk calling for crackdowns on anti-Tesla protests because a woman pointed at a Cyber Truck.

Ok… And? I can demonstrate it, they cannot.

And how apropos for it to happen under the Narcissist-in-Chief.

Assuming we have social sciences in the future, scholars will study this pathology of these people for decades to come.

The information is there. I’ve had no problem keeping informed. It has been a drain on my mental health, but it’s very doable.

Just stay away from bullshit social media, first and foremost.

My only (possibly last?) hope is that, if he begins some kind of invasion, that it’s over whatever line that our military leaders have drawn in the sand in terms of obeying unlawful orders, and they refuse.

I’m not optimistic.

Put simply: Chutzpah has more of a positive connotation, while hubris is almost always negative.

I honestly think it will be this.

It’s because people had the nerve to make them feel stupid by telling them something they didn’t know or were previously wrong about.

They showed us.
