Joe, you’re a barely sentient potato. Trump LITERALLY told people, fucking repeatedly, that they were going to do mass deportations before he took office. Joe, in between tripping on freebased cat litter or whatever the fuck you’re into these days, did you ever wonder HOW these deportations would have been enforced?

Pity for the the people who made the clearly unforgivable mistake of not being born as Aryan poster child in this fine country. They are being forced from their homes and lives because you voted for a group of ethnostate terrorists. Nothing about this is gentle, humane, or voluntary. You don’t get to suddenly question jack-fucking-shit about their tactics like it’s a new development; they were teabagging the media with details repeatedly for months on end while you glazed over Daddy coming home.

I look forward to the day you grow up, sober up, and then shut the fuck up once you realize you carried water for a fascist takeover.

I stand corrected. And it sat dormant until 2 hours ago. Whatever the reason for that is is irrelevant, but you’re clearly here to fuck with people.

So, from American, I say you’re welcome to move here and enjoy the fall of this empire in real time with us. Until you do that, stfu about how wonderful life would be with a senior citizen with onset dimentia sunsetting before the world’s eyes while he unleashes his own private thug army to destroy people’s lives.

Your account was created 2 hours ago, specifically to jump into here to stir shit up. @all, block and stop feeding the amateur troll.

I didn’t say it was funny. I have PTSD, depression and an anxiety disorder. I’ve been in counseling for these things on and off since 2017.

But to clarify, the knee jerk reaction I referenced comes from my own triggers to certain things. So, that was an actual question; do people experience an instant PTSD-like reaction from their time on corpo social media after they leave it?

Absolutely, reddit was invaded by 4channers and Digg refugees as a foundation. The “culture” of the hivemind there was founded on being a snarky asshole to get internet points. And with that, power is inevitably desired by abusive people. Spez might as well be the posterchild for social media abusers. The mods and admins are just wannabe Spez.

But much like an abusive ex, at some point, people need to stop giving that abuser their energy. Giving it to them means they still have a level of access or influence they don’t deserve, and it’s a cycle of self harm.

Anyways, back to your point: I browse All and prune as I go. I need to make the time to prune again.

Honestly, that’s an interesting thing to consider and I hadn’t done that before. I think my own extremely strong hatred for centralized social media clouds my ability to not have a knee jerk reaction.

Is PTSD from being in a techbro’s walled garden a known phenomenon? LOL

What’s the point of having this community? People that left Reddit after deciding that it’s not a place they can tolerate anymore, joined Lemmy, or mbin, or piefed to get away from the abuse. This smacks of a jilted partner occasionally stalking their ex from the bushes, seeking out validation that the breakup was warranted.

Instead of giving energy and time to the Reddit dumpster fire of the moment, put more time into the fediverse. We all know that corporate social media is never going to get better.

Hubzilla maybe?

So are the gay frogs!!

Is anyone truly ok in this timeline?

He always looks like his crush just caught him with her panties are hanging out of his ass while fucking her dog.

Ahem… I believe you mean BEST KOREA.

Are you sure about that?

I’m winning. I don’t use AI and I’m too broke to shop for anything besides necessities.

I love how you got downvoted with no one giving a counterpoint or any indication as to why they disagree.

Oh well, I upvoted you to counter that laziness.

At the end of the day, every single representative, in both parties, in the House and Senate, are 100% personally insulated from the outcomes of the legislation they vote on. Pelosi doesn’t rely on food stamps, nor does Speaker Johnson have to worry about getting disappeared by freshly employed Jan 6 insurrectionists cosplaying as ICE stormtroopers.

The government serves itself, always.

As long as Step 4 doesn’t happen, then yes. Repeatedly.

Step 1: Become elected GOP cretin

Step 2: Repeatedly screech about a moral panic

Step 3: Legislate some shit law that is full of things that benefits whoever bribed you to get it to the floor

Step 4: Go back to diddling kids until you’re outed publicly

“Modest”?

No, we have better language to use

Useless

Disingenuous

Paid actors

Servants to the ruling class

Inside traders

Purposefully weak

Blatantly dishonest

And the list could go on and on…
