No worries, happens to me all the time.

You saw people on Lemmy cheerleading genocide?

Honestly, so many companies want to start with getting rid of skilled labor and try using “AI” to write code and so on; I don’t know why the board doesn’t ask the C-suite to replace THEMSELVES with “AI” for an experiment and see how that goes instead…the cost savings would be immense and they would no longer have to deal with outsized egos, to boot.

Oh, why don’t they do this, at least in my view? Oh, probably because all these people sit on each others’ boards and they aren’t about to show what a sham C-suite work is…

A sharpie for hurricanes, an LLM for trade policy. What a fucking world.

Yep. The market is a lot like politics that way.

You might not take an interest in markets, but markets take an interest in YOU.

I keep saying that but a lot of people that just like to be contrarians (I guess?) keep saying that the economy was not really good at all.

Well then.

Uh, progressives did vote third party, claiming that donvict would be no worse, possibly better. That’s no lie. So yes, it was Republicans AND lots of “independents” and even progressives that said so. I watched them do it.

Also, playing the No True Scotsman with progressives…hilarious. You are not the arbiter of who is and who is not a progressive, although I know you’d like to call everyone you disagree with a “centrist”. Have fun with that. If we play the purity game enough, virtually everyone can be declared a “centrist”, but that’s not very constructive is it?

This guy is such a goddamn narcissist. Maybe they should have kept that dumb game show of his on the air, no matter what the ratings might have been (I never watched a full episode since I always knew the guy for being an insufferable asshole).

Um, lots of people said that, including donvict himself.

And when did I say Democrats shouldn’t listen to progressives like me?

Agreed. With donvict and his zero-empathy crew, the terror and misery are going to be brought here and waged against much of the country, in addition to in Gaza. In addition to him being even worse on Gaza.

The galaxy-brained so-called “leftists” (I question how many actually are) would have us believe that allowing donvict into office is just fine, and them abstaining from voting or throwing a vote away on a joke of a third party even makes them righteous.

Rapid unplanned disassembly.

And now craft spirits producer Boston Harbor Distillery, which makes whiskey, rum. gin, liqueurs, and distilled beer, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, seeking to reorganize its business. The Dorchester, Mass.-based debtor filed its petition on March 31 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Massachusetts, listing $500,000 to $1 million in assets and $1 million to $10 million in debts.

Interesting that covid is blamed, but I wonder if donvict continues to impose more and more and more regressive taxes, if we’ll be reading a rash of stories like this.

Also, the comment where someone rails about seeing people wearing masks - it feels like I was transported back to 2020 when the Antima Karens were everywhere it seems…

Huh, weird. I thought peaceful donvict was going to end all this, unlike “Genocide Joe” and Kamala…

🤦‍♂️ 🙄

Uh, what the fuck did these geniuses think would happen? Repeatedly kick every one of our allies in the balls, and…then what? Things continue just status quo in every other aspect?

Yes. But right wing terrorism does not count as terrorism in their book.

It’s weird how upset the hard right gets over property damage. They got very upset over their made-up “fact” that “whole cities were burnt to the ground” by BLM/antifa.

But it’s okay to plan and scheme for, then carry out, a terrorist event at the Capitol to overturn a free and fair election, and possibly lynch the VP and any other politicians that they didn’t like and could get their grubby little hands on. I do notice that property damage that is part of the government seems to get an exception, too.

I’m sure this kind of thing is what occupies the broligarchs’ brains at least 90% of the time…

All this unneeded austerity (when donvict was handed a great economy) is going to end up spilling over into the private sector, which is what these demons want. They are still butthurt over the small gains made by labor during Covid.
