One nuance that I think often gets lost is that outside of a very small percentage of cases, if your great great great grandfather fought for the confederate army that isnt a criticism on you or him. Theres every likelihood that he was just another illiterate idiot fed a bunch of rhetoric and told who to fight and be vilified, press ganged or killed if he didnt. Even if he volunteered, look at the lies and dripple being punched out about russia/ukraine and israel/palestine and they had a very narrow information flow. Its ok to have family on the wrong side of history, we cant know what kind of person they were or how they really felt in most cases.

Its also possible that the Chechen war criminal who works for the Russian war criminal known for disinformation campaigns is making shit up.

I dont like defending Elon but this is Giant Douche vs Turd Sandwich.

The music video is also amazing because the words and dancing are both gibberish yet somehow work.

Mini series is such an underrated platform.

It commits the creator to a fixed duration but doesnt force you into the movie trilogy paradigm.

Take Band of Brothers, Terminator salvation and the intro to T2. Put it into a blender, and serve with a light topping of Edge of Tomorrow

I commented on one of my other accounts that I.was looking at the BYD electric sedan because its cheap, fast AF and I can charge it off my home solar.

Apparently I am party to the slaughter of The Uyghur people and I should be ashamed of myself.

That mass shooter one he did wasnt utterly terrible. It felt low budget and raw but I feel like that worked for the subject matter.

But yes, he almost always makes shit.

Im watching it to find out HOW bad it is. Im just slowing down to look at the car accident.

All of fucking Lemmy.

I’m a normie, I dont Linux, I dont communist, I dont vegan, I dont FOSS, I dont care about hiding behind over 9000 proxies for muh privacy.

I used to Reddit for memes, lulz and banter but they killed my preferred app and turned the site to shit so I bounced to the alternative, but in the last year this place is becoming increasingly fuckin negative, I find more actual humor on facebook.

Some of you need to laugh at a fart joke once in a while.

It would take a LOT and over a LONG time and the best he could do is die without me thinking he was a COMPLETE cunt. But he could still drag himself back to “I guess in the end he wasnt all bad”

Its not usually “Truck drivers” its people who have rented a box truck.

Maybe thats why they sold so many microtransactions. “Surely if I spend another $10 it wont be shit”

I saw a down’s syndrome kid do it once when his carer got distracted for a moment.

How much money and status is realistically left?

An old man and convicted felon who is in obvious mental decline with an unstable empire who cheats on you publicly… she could probably do better financially off a book deal and interview tour.

I would absolutely love for Melania to file for divorce like… maybe a week out for election day… Can we organise a go-fund-me? I don’t want to give rich assholes more money but I’d pay to contribute to his total and utter public humiliation.

I thought I told.you that we won’t stop, I thought I told you that we won’t stop.

You dont notify the government directly, you notify the news desks of MSNBC, Fox, ABC and the major newspapers. Do it via express postage envelopes a few days out, include any publicly available info on hijackers, flight numbers and times.

The Government might ignore it as a hoax, but not if they know that the information has come via every major news outlet in the country. They have to act.

You are assuming that the government will run the insurance process competently. The government already is beholden to the voters and public opinion and they are just so efficient and devoid of red tape right? You’re also assuming the government will run the insurance industry as some sort of benevolent not for profit as opposed to a new form of tax. Not to mention what happens when the republicans get in and decide to raise insurance on electric vehicles or manipulate the price of insurance on cars from certain countries as a form of ersatz import tariff, or install political appointment figureheads who can take kickbacks to make certain manufacturers cheaper to insure. Not to mention the formation of a government department of adjusters and estimators to run the whole deal.

The existing system sucks buy I dont see the government having total control and no alternatives being some sort of magical panacea.

So it should be a government controlled monopoly?
