DoE gets in the way of funneling the money to the
churchescorporations.
Let’s not kid ourselves, the churches will get some money for taking the poor kids, but the goal is to privatize education so that corporations can profit from schooling even more than they already have.
it took me a full minute to parse this headline
yo dawg
Fascism 101: it’s only cool if I do it, because I’m supposed to be in charge and you’re not
I still can’t fucking believe that this verbally incontinent, senile, silver-spoon-deep-throating, walrus-looking, absolute shitbag is the guy we’re fucking up the entire system and body of law to protect, and 50% of the nation is seeing all of this and thinking, “yep, that’s my president.” It’s fucking incredible that a Burger King can operate with our per capita of knuckle-draggers, let alone a country.
oh god damn it.
whelp, there goes Season 3 of Good Omens.
He posted a picture on his stream of the error message “There’s a problem here” over the Biden/Harris campaign page, so at very least he’s trolling instead of taking his job seriously. Twitter is his private platform so whatever, but it’s another reminder that Musk will not be impartial and is actually pouring millions into the Trump campaign, so if you’re still there now would be a good time to leave.
It’s not even “he hurts the ‘right people’” anymore, because Trump’s policies hurt everyone. It’s"he hurts the ‘right people’" more than he hurts me. I will give myself a cold to give you a fever.
conveniently making room for the one candidate who probably does love a genocide
A very common position among the lemmy crowd, unfortunately. I really don’t expect much to change either, just swap Harris for Biden in the hit pieces.
Charitable to think that Trump would agree to a debate with Harris.
“They” is the “not us” of the fascist binary. We belong at the top of the power pyramid but “they” stole it from us. “They” are using the power that “they” shouldn’t have against us. We have to fight back, and we are justified in using any means necessary to put “them” back in “their” place.
And instead we got a guarantee of actual fascism in America. This was a stupid, selfish move.
If you’re planning to take out an aspiring despot, you better be damn sure of your shot
Fuck that. Biden should make them regret this decision. If his candidacy is as DOA as everyone is pretending it is, then there’s no incentive to play by the rules. Move fast and break stuff and get some shit done for a change.
Also,
Biden, under intense pressure after his disastrous debate performance against Trump last week
They just had to get it in there. Not a mention of Trump making shit up the whole time, or the raving lunatic shit he’s saying on the campaign trail. 90 minutes of Biden being low energy and it’s all over. “The other guy is too old, maybe we can do a little fascism. That will be OK, right?”
And gave a bunch of “objective” news outlets a good excuse to write a bunch of “DEMS IN PANIC AFTER BIDEN’S UNFORGIVABLE SHIT SHOW” articles they are for some reason eager to write
Corpo media want Trump, simple as. Not only do they get the tax breaks and regulation abatement for their parent companies, but the last Trump term was cocaine for news media consumption, as we were all bombarded with new disaster scenarios every week. News companies do not care about the people or “the good of the nation.” They care about line go up.
wtf is going on at NYT, ffs. is all the money in fact-phobic reactionary hackery these days?
the search function is now hidden under six pages of Netflix exclusives and is pay-per-use
What happens is likely to be violence against trans people, immigrants, and minorities who will be scapegoats for breaking the social safety net.
