Yea, he's had a career as a politician. Maybe he's giving his constituency what they want, but doesn't seem to align with Canadian values in my book

Lol I was quoting Mitch hedberg, "I used to do drugs, I still do, but used to do too"

Yea I can see that, we can live comfortably on earth with Kessler syndrome but some carrington event and already struggling populace would probably set us back a century at least and wed be trapped on earth nearly forever, or until we can solve Kessler syndrome

Used to have nice hair, still does, but used to too.

This is in regards to our brethren down south, poking fun at 2nd amendmenters and their manly façade. Seems like cons all over the globe mostly like to larp as strong men but like if you gotta hide behind a firearm, are you really manly? 🤷‍♂️

Kessler syndrome has entered the chat

We could be architechting our own Great Filter (assuming we've not passed it already, and assuming we can't solve the Kessler syndrome).

Some light reading for those unfamiliar:

Maybe when we get 6g and our avian bird flu boosters we can get 6g access through our minds 🤯

Piggybacking off this comment to repost a comment I've put elsewhere. I'm new to Lemmy and understand its not as dynamic as reddit due to the smaller userbase, but figure some people might not be reading all comments.

With that outta the way:

  • Received a government pension at 31, then raised the retirement age on hard-working Canadians
  • Defined marriage as a union between ‘one man and one woman, to the exclusion of all others’ (in front of his gay parent)
  • Visited and courted far-right extremist groups
  • Said Indigenous Peoples needed to learn the value of hard work more than they needed compensation for residential schools
  • Worked to bring American-style, anti-union laws to Canada
  • Said he’d use the notwithstanding clause, overriding Canadians’ rights
  • Committed to free votes, allowing his MPs to bring forward anti-abortion legislation

Timbit Trump has had a terrible history as MP, I don't want to see him as PM.

That's the beauty, I spun up my own and you can too. It allows for data sovereignty and ownership if you own your own node and once critical mass is reached then its game over for established social media oligarchs. SReddit is issuing warnings and likely only time before they kiss the ring for Cheeto Mussolini and ban and dissenting opinions.

Retirement for the environment

That's awesome! Yes each country, region, municipality should have their own instance. I've spun up a Lemmy instance and going to try and make grassroots in roads by going to local businessses and trying to get them to sign up.

Its a chicken and the egg dilemma. Trying to get users is hard, but if there are businesses that interact with local users then there's something more whole some. Not zucc, musky, or the other broligarchs making pennies on each local interaction. Their power needs to be usurped by the people.
