"Blasting" is not going to fix the problem

[-] Boddhisatva@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

It could. To quote the movie Uncommon Valor: Most human problems can be solved by an appropriate charge of high explosives.

I think they meant 'peaceblasting'

“Naughty naughty, Mr. President. I’m only giving you one scoop of ice cream for dessert!

awwww but you’re so great and powerful; fine, I’ll give you the whole quart again, especially because you’re so healthy!”

Fascists versus "we didn't know we were fascists"

Man, tagging users can be useful... Did you vote in 2024?

So which of those two previously mentioned categories do you fall into?

[-] AfricanExpansionist@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

I haven't voted since 2006 and it feels great 🤷🏻‍♀️

"I haven't voted since 2006 so my opinion on politics is null and void."

[-] AfricanExpansionist@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 hours ago

OK next time I'll vote third party so that my opinion is valid to you

[-] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 1 points 19 hours ago

Yes, you have. You've given support to the worst of two evils in EVERY election. People like you are the reason that monsters like Bush and HitlerPig were elected.

[-] AfricanExpansionist@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 hours ago

Well no, you see, because I didn't cast a vote. Neither party sought my vote 🤷🏻‍♀️

I hope he sees the CECOT satellite image soon

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
