Pretty sure the blob restraining the powers of president in power is the obstructionist senate, mainly for a democrat president.
Yes I know the EU forced it's will on Apple, that's my exact fucking point.
It's almost as if you don't let capitalism completely rampant and create new age oligarchs then democracy works.
I guess also should watch an almost 2 hour podcast to find out it's easier to call things the blob than Super PACs, lobbyist groups and think thanks. Thanks for the link.
Isn't the far right party getting more votes than ever in Germany?
You can teach people all you want the problem is capitalism is very easy prey to fascism.
No offense but this reads like an edgy teenager's take on politics, was it the blob who prevented the 10 million people who showed for biden to not show up for Harris? Or was it their selfishness, sexism, racism, misguided idiotic leftism (like you see in lemmy comments about how this is revenge for not taking a stance on gaza)
How come the EU can force change on US companies yet the US fails to do so? Is the blob in the Us, just like alien attacks and pandemics and serial killers in movies?
It's the dems fault thinking a PoC woman can succeed as the presidential candidate in the current political climate in America
I just bought a car that consumes a lot more fuel than my previous one, but I won't have kids, so not even cycling vegans can compete with my carbon footprint reduction, only the childless ones.
This is what happens when someone can't put themselves into their user's shoes and then wonder why a product isn't doing as well as it is.
They proclaim the product is great, it's everyone else that's the problem
I knew it, that sick motherfucker switched to Windows 11 voluntarily didn't he?
A ton of parts of what you are driving, all your maga hats, a ton of stuff that's in your house
On the other hand I am going to see Jimmy Carr live for like 30-40 euros.
I think that actually has a value, concerts I find to be meh, it's the same music you listen to anyway just very expensive, worse quality and surrounded by sweat, alcohol and too many people.
I prefer going to a festival and then maybe there is a band like and maybe I discover some new ones.
Well IIRC the ascended where just a previous generation of humans, they still weren't all knowing and all powerful, in fact anubis tricked them into helping him ascend, they were just smarter more advanced humans who managed to figure out becoming eternal by becoming energy based beings.
I used to be in a bad space, getting off the internet more and living life more helps a lot, I am not trying to dismiss your concerns, but I think you will find the real world to be much less extreme than what's on the internet.
I mostly stopped following politics, the amount of injustice make me angry and unable to function, but I came to the realization that I am not the kind of person who is going to devote his quite literally limited time on earth to trying to fix other people's stupidity, I go out and vote in elections, then I live my life, that's it.
Being online and reading people bitching about stuff and saying how bad it's gonna be doesn't really get you anywhere only into a bad space mentally, so why read it? I have curated a homepage on lemmy thats almost completely politics free, what's politics is mostly satire to make me laugh, I feel better, and I focus on being a better me.
