  • Saying, but not supporting with facts.

  • Whew, good thing I didn't claim that then.

    Perhaps you have fallen into the common trap of thinking "better than Trump" equates to "objectively good".

  • At the start of his term we were hiding in houses and fighting for toilet paper and by the end of it things were much better.

    Hugely disingenuous to claim that a global pandemic ending was a policy change.

    And while the IRA was a decent piece of legislation, I'd love to hear how it was the "most progressive bill" since the New Deal. Hint: expensive ≠ progessive, especially when tangible results are hard to pin down.

    (Not saying Biden was a bad president, but it's fair to say he was a mediocre one)

  • Can you name some examples?

  • Biden was the best president in my lifetime

    This is impossible unless you're under 18, which is against the TOS of most/all Lemmy instances.

  • Because it was lower under Biden. We have numbers.

    I'm so tired of living in a timeline where we pretend facts don't exist to avoid upsetting the MAGAs.

  • Yeah that's fair. My RAM usage is through the roof lately, but it pretty clearly happened when I switched to a multimonitor setup. I'm much more likely to have a lot of stuff in the background now because it's easier to have a lot open at the same time in the practical sense.

    But I was lucky enough to grab a 64GB kit before prices went into the sky. Believe it or not, I was regularly up against the limit when I had 32GB.

  • "Starting to"? 16GB is just a few tabs open for long enough.

  • Assuming around USD $220 for a 16GB kit of DDR5, it now costs $27.50 more to run Ubuntu.

  • Hassett looks like Rich Evans (RedLetterMedia), if he had a real job.

  • His skin would clear up if he stopped drinking.

  • Is this winning?

  • The sheer amount of vacuum in that orange head surely must be causing issues. I saw what happened to Oceangate. Granted it had more than one vacuum inside.

  • How many more signs are we waiting for?

  • Time for a new supervisor.

  • Yes, and Tucker Carlson. It's kind of a thing.

    The difference is that Beck and Carlson are actually more straightforward with regards to how they lean. Rogan always suggests he's a centrist, sometimes even suggesting he is apolitical, which is patently false.

  • Thanks. I like to be extra careful.

  • Yes, I agree with that about confused young men. However, at the end of the day, if JRE turns them into toxic men, then they're still just toxic men.

    I would hope that doesn't happen. In general I think we as a society need to be kinder to these confused young men before they take that path. It's a more difficult conversation to have and the solution is not very clear.

    Either way, JRE is dangerous because it offers propagandistic suppositions as answers to people with big questions.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Are there previous historical examples of cult-like followings of US political candidates?
