Yes, it’s the liberals fault! Why aren’t they stopping the people who have power over every part of our government! I realize the media doesn’t talk about when they do protest, but that’s no excuse! Why aren’t there more protests, more often and bring guns! /s
I guess the republicans could stop them at any point in this process, but they don’t. You know, cuz it’s a fucking job he can be fired from.
People day that about every story coming out of the Trump admin. And it’s true, every one of these stories would be a huge scandal in normal times
The thing is America is now an autocratic country. Opposing the oligarchs, especially Trump, now leads to significant personal consequences
This is all setup. Silencing dissenting news doesn’t immediately do anything. It just let’s them do terrible things more easily in the future
Once it gets real ugly, I’ll be leaving. I voted against and protested against this stuff my whole life. It didn’t work. Until it gets to that point though, I make way more here than elsewhere. Might as well bank money while I can
Dude, you know I love ya man, but there’s a reason most of us are here instead of the bad place. This is one of the least suppressed social media outlets, and it still has its issues with who controls the front page of all. The only reason the “No Kings” protest was covered was because millions showed up and their readers were probably in the crowd. It has to get to millions to cover it.
I’m frustrated that so many people sat around and didn’t vote and now that we have a chance to hammer on the outrage constantly so people are angry and motivated to make a change we’re not.
The epstein thing is making cracks in his base. I’m not getting my hopes up, but if you look over at conservative in the bad place, they seem to be turning a little. Being mad at what’s already been done is useless.
I also think you’re not realizing how much the media is behind trump. I don’t know if it’s so they don’t get sued, blackmailed or what, but it’s definitely happening. If you go through the media like I do every day, it’s blatantly obvious that the headline writers are on his side. Most people only read the headlines and they know that. The articles themselves are mostly good, but even ones that I put in the top 3 will *sometimes not explain everything. You have to read 4 or 5 articles to get the full story and most people don’t have time for that shit.
Edit: Actually I do have a clue as to why the media is on trump’s side, he cuts their taxes and mostly makes them a shit ton of money. I put together this list of all of the media owners before the last election, and every single one is either owned by a billionaire or has corporations on their board of directors. https://sh.itjust.works/post/20890256

My point is where is the outrage?
Why isn’t this the cover story on every national news webpage and trending on socials?

Because the media is fucking complicit.

Yes the right has much better messaging then liberals or leftists.
I know you’re just fucking around, but we’re just so freaking tired. We don’t know how this will end either. Right now, it’s not looking good.

Aren’t you the liberal? Why aren’t you protesting this?
I love how you assume I’m not.
What in the chicken fried fuck are you talking about?
We have litterally thousands of comments to evaluate each other by.
Do you have some sort of ‘Lemmy user that doesn’t protest’ program built now?
Actually I’ve been working on a shitlib detector.
Go ahead. Try it out.
I know I’m a liberal and I’m vocal about it so there’s no need to.
Thanks though!
Idk man the radar says shitlib…
