  • What makes you think modern hysteria about unprecedented times is overstated and things around the world will continue on as normal well into the distant future?

    Jump

  • It's not like everybody woke up one day and "ah shit, everything's fucked! How the hell did that happen. This is unprecedented!" The scale and tools might be new, but that's about it.

    The problem is that "continue on as normal" basically means to continually get progressively worse. Greed and oppression will increase. Division and bigotry will keep growing. Science and logic will be ignored or manipulated by those seeking power. This will ultimately culminate in some sort of horrifically deadly breaking point. Then we reset a little bit and start the cycle all over again and again until the humans go extinct.

    I know that this is an incredibly pessimistic take, but that's my view of current events.

  • Large Majority of Americans Want to End Electoral College

    Jump

  • Is the suggestion here that the only people who support the electoral college are those who don't want the president to represent the majority of the voting population?

    Raimondo: 'Extinguish' Trump for Good, 'Banish Him from American Politics'

    Jump

  • I am not clicking on a Breitbart link.

    Its content has been described as misogynistic, xenophobic, and racist by academics and journalists. The site has published a number of conspiracy theories and intentionally misleading stories.

  • Trump and Vance face criminal charges over Springfield hoax

  • Organization seeks 'immediate arrest' of Trump and Vance over Springfield hoax

    Fixed the title. I read nothing to suggest that Trump or Vance are currently in any danger of being arrested in Springfield, Ohio.

  • Trump Avoids ‘Black Nazi’ Mark Robinson As GOP Cuts His Cash

  • Maybe it's because of their inherent resistance to equality?

  • Trump Media stock scrapes new 52-week low in heavy trading after DJT lockup lifts

    Jump

  • Trading volume accelerated significantly as the lockup lifted. More than 14 million shares changed hands on Thursday and nearly 22 million were exchanged Friday, far exceeding the 30-day average volume of about 8.3 million shares.

  • 'Can't even begin to speculate': Onlookers stunned that worse Mark Robinson story will hit

    Jump

  • Robinson, the controversial candidate with former President Donald Trump's backing

    Robinson accused Martin Luther King, Jr. of being a "communist," called pop star Beyoncé a "devil worshipper" said he missed the days when women could not vote, quoted Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler and referred to gay people as maggots.

    I wish I was still shocked and surprised by this type of reveal.

  • If the logic of copyright/trademark/IP law applied to everything, what's the most peculiar possible implication you can think of for it?

  • Does anyone else here have lupus? Just got diagnosed and I am really scared/upset

    Jump

  • My sister-in-law was diagnosed a couple of years ago. It has only improved the quality of her life by allowing her to work with her doctor on a treatment plan that has mitigated the health issues she used to struggle with.

    She is currently looking at going for a PhD in the field of her chosen career.

  • Pigs Fly; George Will Endorses Harris

    Jump

  • I am so confused.

    George Will

    Who? Has he played a significant role in past elections and I've never noticed?

    and baseball fan

    Why? Why is this part of this story? It makes me want to care even less. Is that the point?

  • Project 2025 Staffer's Viral Video on Abortion Massively Backfires

    Jump

  • All it took was for someone to ask.

    Correction, it takes people listening, which I doubt anybody involved in Project 2025 intends to do. At least not to women.

  • "Trump's embrace of a vile extremist troll is dividing the GOP"

    Jump

  • But they are okay with him being a vile extremist troll?

  • NSFW Tag for drug use?

    Jump

  • I suspect that this may be partially a result of a recent post of mine that some may considered to be in bad taste. So this response is likely to be a bit biased.

    For what it is worth, I considered tagging mine as NSFW but ultimately decided it was not necessary. I thought the image was very clearly a staged representation of drug use. Similar to how the Eric Andre meme is clearly a staged representation of murder. Further, there was no blood nor any indication of physical injury and I liked it to an image of somebody smoking pot or drinking to excess.

    Do I think drug use alone require a NSFW tag? No.

    Should drug coupled with blood, gore, physical injury, exploitation, etc? Possibly.

  • Trump tried to push Harris into more debates. Now he's not sure he'll do another.

    Jump

  • What are your favorite examples of 'media within media' (e.g., shows, stories, or movies inside of other shows or books)?

    Jump

  • I just stated watching The Goes Wrong Show on Amazon. Not sure if I would appreciate more than 1 episode a night, but the first one had me laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.
