A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.
Rules:
Good, maybe somebody in there hates sex offenders enough to take steps.
Didn’t this state overwhelmingly vote for one?
All those child molesters are going to walk free and there's nothing to be done about it
Justice is defiled
Burn the entire fucking thing to the ground
Did I die and wake up in hell at some point?
Nothing of this makes any fucking sense anymore.
Waitwaitwait
THIS is the bad place!
SkaveRat figured it out...SKAVERAT!? This is a real low point. This one really hurts.
I think about this a lot.
But like, EVERYONE keeps just going with this shit. Am I the only one who heard the story of the emperor’s new clothes? We’re just going along with that I guess.
Also how the fuck does that guy keep appointing child molestors to shit, How the fuck does he possibly know so many of them that it happened multiple times at all? Does that not raise a ton of questions in and of itself? The whole Epstein shit should have been the end of Trump, oh he’s mad, let’s stop talking about it while he installs literal fucking censors in the news.
And his executive orders have zero authority, yet everyone in the US is treating them like legal decrees. You’d think there’d be a lineup of every person implementing them being fined, but nope.
Openly defying the Supreme Court about returning that “deported” guy in El Salvador? Nobody gets in trouble for that I guess. Plus he just gets to declare he’s investigating people and nobody does a thing.
Seriously, the marines in LA and now multiple states to arrest people, an explicit crime, and zero reaction from the public.
And it’s not just the US. Here in Canada we’re somehow winning the measles race while Britain has decided you need daddy Charles’ permission to view swears online. They’re even talking about how that’s not quite far enough! What’s next, you need a guard with a bear fur hat to unzip your pants to be sure you don’t glance at your own genitalia?
Jesus fucking Christ, I get why God drowned the whole planet now and we are long fucking overdue.
God we’re all so fucking fucked I just want to live in the forest and never see another person again.
This collapse was long in the making, crippling education and co-opting media for half a century bred a nation where 40% of the people think a rapist felon traitor is an ideal presidential candidate
There is no fixing this, there will be a civil war within the decade
Lmao you're so close.
Also how the fuck does that guy keep appointing child molestors to shit, How the fuck does he possibly know so many of them that it happened multiple times at all?
It's exactly what us 4 billion people that have access to the Internet think
I got a classic Stoner cousin who once shared an interesting Theory with me while he was high of course. He says we all died in 2012, the Mayans were apparently right after all I guess, and that this existence we have now is just hell or some form of eternal torment. Whether it's hell for all of us or just me or just him I'm not entirely sure. Don't know the metaphysics on that one. But I'll tell you what, his theory makes a little more sense every single day.
Fuck, are you my cousin? Cuz I've had this theory for awhile... also, if so, i feel like you're being kinda derisive about me being high, but if you think im about to be out here just raw doggin' hell you're out your mind
I feel asleep waiting for election results and woke up when it was all red. It felt like I took a bunch of Benadryl
Trump is clearly going to pardon Ghislaine
Only if SCOTUS doesn't overturn her conviction first
The same SCOTUS that works for Trump?
The next time the dems take the office, they’d better do shit for the people so fucking radical it makes this entire admin look like soggy frosted flakes.
fascists don't hold free elections
What the fuck are the DNC going to do? Beg for more money and wag their fingers and the repugnicans while saying 'naughty naughty'?
The DNC failed hard on all fronts with the exception of maybe 3 voices that have STILL accomplished nothing in stopping this shitshow of a fascist parade.
Even IF somehow 2028 a legitimate election, I don't see the DNC putting forth any actual progressive candidates ever. They are more interested in their corporate donors than the well-being of the citizens and it is time they become irrelevant
Which leaves you with what options? One, near as I reckon: fuckall.
Guess it’s time to stop being angry, and just be sad.
It is necessary to recognize the tipping point where working with the system is no longer a useful way to save the system. I vehemently disagreed when those fucking tankies refused to campaign and vote for Harris based on that logic, but now that point is passed.
There are plenty of things you can do, but they no longer have to do with electoral campaigning and a lot of those will be steadily made illegal.
Being vocal against the pedo elites is one of those things. Fascism thrives on unearned legitimacy and this is a threat to that. Keep your neighbors angry, keep pointing out that the emperor has no clothes and that he's not-so-secretly fucking children.
The dems won’t do shit
Correct.
I like your optimism that Democrats will ever get a chance to have this power again. Trump is here to stay. Even if he dies this term, you have Vance to carry the torch. And don't worry doesn't matter how unpopular he is the election will be rigged in his favor anyway. They also find that when they break from the constitution there no consequences. So they will just completely ignore the two term rule. After all what anybody going do about it? Nothing.
100% correct here sadly. Most people won't see this truth until after the next "Election" is decided. Fully rigged and even then there will be ICE at every voting place. It'll just get even more Black Mirror 1984 after that.
I never gave a timeline for it happening.
I completely agree, unfortunately.
The Supreme Court has made it clear they won't do anything to reign in the power of the presidency and Congress won't either.
Next time Dems should not take office. At least not the current old guard. We already know what happens else.
She’s gonna get merked in a suicide. Calling it.
Nah they'll keep her around to name the names they tell her to.
Once she’s pointed the finger at who they want they’ll suicide her to keep her from going back on it.
If she gets out for any reason expect her to disappear to avoid that fate.
Nope, she's going to name a handful of dem adjacent politicans and walk free without a record
If she was going to be suicided it would have already happened
