    Yep just keep punching left 😮‍💨

    "First they came for the **socialists**, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
    
    Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
    
    Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
    
    Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

  • I think what you’re supposed to take away from this is actual left wing candidates who are against genocide did well this election. A big part of why Kamala lost is because she did not have high voter turnout from the left. She spent most of her campaign trying to appeal to moderate right-wing voters who did not vote for her. And she also did not get the turn out of the left because of it. She should have been trying to appeal to farther left voters by promoting actual left Wing ideas and not sicking the police on anti genocide protesters.

    But hey it don’t matter, not like we’re ever going to get to vote again anyway






  • As a younger millennial it surprises me how little others seem to get the generation divide here. Personal computers and keyboards were very common for millennials to grow up with in the house, but I think more and more people these days don’t use desktops or laptops that often most people stick with tablets and smartphones. Gen z probably doesn’t have the same keyboard skills as millennials because of that, but on average they are definitely better with tech than we are. Their typing skills are just on phone keyboards lol. Just my 2 cents



  • I think he’s just a hypocrite who will say anything and contradict it when it’s better for him.

    Have you ever seen his trans daughter who he disowned for being trans talk about him? He’s not a good dude. For years when I first heard of him I was tricked too. Look into him some more man. He’s a piece of shit.

    Here’s some reasons:

    Taking credit for other people 's work. I don’t think he actually founded any of the companies he owns besides the boring company. That hasn’t done anything right? Lol

    Having emotional temper tantrums where he tries to ruin people’s lives, for example that diver he called a pedophile for no reason.

    Again his hypocrisy around his political beliefs. For example how he champions “Free speech” but also will censor words like ‘cis’. It’s clear to me and many others that “free speech” to Elon just means people are free to say what Elon wants.

    I use temu too. I see literally the same products on Amazon and temu regularly. Temu is much cheaper but obviously shipping is longer. But yeah there is alot of overlap. I think it’s too important to remember a lot of the stuff they get sold on Amazon is from small third party sellers who buy cheap goods from China from places like timu or Alibaba or wherever and then warehouse and resell them on Amazon for a huge markup.

    I get where y’all are coming from temu does horrible s*** I guess the reason I use it is the same as the other guy said thr price hike in thr us and I don’t think the merchants over here are ethical either. I’m pretty used to being surveilled digitally at this point 🤷
