Fair point, what kind of voting system do you guys have? Really wish we had ranked choice.

[-] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Because people are tribalistic and paint with a very wide brush. And we have a FPTP two party system. So like it or not, liberal, left, feminist, etc memes all get lumped together. It's up to us to reign in the crazy on our own side lest we look crazy by proxy. Or replace crazy with venom, or whatever you want to call it that is making young men feel more welcome on right.

It's like that line from the Newsroom. "You know why people hate liberals? Because you lose. If liberals are so smart how come they lose so god damned always?"

I'm on the left and I'm tired of getting my ass kicked because my own party has no strategic or tactical sense, and no unity to rally us. Just infighting and giving the right easy wins and plentiful sticks to beat us with.

No it won't. That's not the point though. You talk as if humans are wholly rational. All I'm pointing out is the left are masters of shooting themselves in the foot with how they message and present themselves.

You catch more flies with honey and all that.

Everything you said is true. And will not get you victory. That's my point. Uncomfortable truths aren't going to get votes. Hope does.

The right may be liars but their message is essentially pining for better times past.

I am pointing out the uncomfortable truth that we are losing young men to the right, and you guys just down vote instead of face the truth. Hypocrisy.

Lol, the mirror of which is, "I can't believe people I insult didn't support my cause!"

Like what's the win for you guys, to get someone who would have voted with you to be demotivated enough to stay home? And if so, isn't that just the same childish attitude?

However, young white men are skewing right. Because the only thing the left says to them is they are privileged pieces of shit that are useless rapists that are trusted less than bears. Winning strategy.

5 days ON THE COUNTER?! And it tasted off, and he consumed it anyway.

This is so stupid that it has to be intentional suicide.

I've used Calibre and stripped DRM off eBooks, definitely recommend.

I read "The police shot the attacker 98 times" with a different interpretation at first lol.

You make it sound like all older people knew. I work in IT and most users, regardless of age, do not know anything about computers. They don't know how to navigate file systems, they don't know where they saved anything, they don't even know what the recycle bin is sometimes.

I once had a user plug a power strip into itself and then didn't understand why there was no power.

Hell, they don't even know how to read. I lost track of how many times I had this conversation:

"There's an error message on my screen."

"What does it say?"

"I don't know."

Credit cards are fine for people who can control their spending. I never pay interest, so I get my rewards for free and am building my credit. If you cannot control your spending habits, you might consider a card with a low limit.
