“Unable to provide effective mechanisms”

Why don’t we replace with unwilling because they sure as shit do. Not. Care.

OK man. Keep yelling at internet strangers telling them they haven’t done enough. Maybe ill read about you in the papers one day doing something worth while. Probably not.

Reading two comments and you know anything about me. Fuck off.

I mean, I get that. Fighting the good fight, etc.

But my point being- not enough people give a flying fuck. I don’t begrudge anyone not wasting more of their life let alone their kids’ lives trying to fight for something that people who are in it clearly don’t think is important enough to fight against.

I’m honestly just tired of it all. Fight so long and people can’t do the bare minimum to vote and you’re telling people who don’t sacrifice even more than they already have that they’re a cuck? Pathetic attitude IMO.

Look at the level of people we’re working with here.

A third of the country voted for fascists and a third didn’t care. What exactly would anyone be fighting for?

Basically this. I will pay for good coverage and news that doesn’t normalize insane bullshit.

I like your last point. The American people long ago fell asleep at the wheel. We either gobble up propaganda and vote for his insanity or don’t think it matters and sit out. Chickens are coming home to roost.

I’d argue the people who thought their smug self righteousness was more important are shit myself.

But hey, now we all get to live in this hell right? Or not live I guess.

I think we should stop using their terms.

Llms spout BULLSHIT half the time. They don’t hallucinate. They confidently state incorrect garbage.

What gets me is there is still people supporting this. I find it hard to imagine how we’ll ever progress given we can’t even agree on the problems to be solved.

Given how it’s amended I’m OK with it not. Seems to me it’d only get worse at this moment.

Anecdotal but Lemmy seems full of germaphobes. It’s whatever but just my observation.

I’ve lived long enough and dealt with this without getting sick so I also don’t really care personally.

Not necessarily. They can fail whenever and it seems they’re piling into more unstable assets like bitcoin vs treasury assets.

I wouldn’t trust it personally but that’s just me.

His name has been in the news too long for that IMO. I think he’ll flounder in the primary.

Mental shortcut to me is the easiest thing to look at.

It’s super easy to just default to something. It requires no thought, introspection, etc. Just a simple, quick answer that may or may not be right but you wouldn’t care.

So much of modern life is people defaulting to a lazy, easy option.

Some. But subscriber rates went up when they disabled sharing.

I’m like you and think some definitely bail but not enough for then to care.

My response concerned the duopoly though. Graphene is still dependent on google regardless. They can’t maintain all of android themselves even if they tried. So it’s the best of a bad situation but does nothing to alleviate the overall problem.

We somehow always top ourselves. Sadly enough.

The similarity to the wall street protests is exactly what comes to mind for me. At a certain point you need actionable goals and them to be clearly known.

If China wasn’t dealing with unknowns in their military due to corruption I think they definitely would. Still might.
