A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Wait, you think the US has had independent media at any time?
It will have even less so, but the only "bad media" will be the ones that doesn't use "trans groomers" and "illegal migrants" in their headlines...
So: start organising to fight fascism immediately. We've been saying this for years: you don't fight fascism at the urns. Unionize, make collective grassroots power, read leftist theory (the only ones who managed to stop fascism in the last century).
Managed to stop fascism? That was a collective effort, but ok. Stop totalitarian dictatorship? Not at all.
