You can read c/autism and post comments there without joining anything at all.

I’m surprised it’s asking you for an ‘invite’, though. Never seen that. I’d suggest sending a note to the listed moderator. Just click ‘send message’ on their page.

Lemmy is kinda confusing, but it’s worth the hassle. (:

There are damned few heroes, and no, Cory Booker isn’t one of them.

I liked him before he came to Congress, but in office he’s been a blah, one of many worthless Dems, and dead wrong on numerous issues — including Gaza.

I’ll give him kudos for the longwinded speech, without even any snark, but it only added up to a day’s delay. To actually be effective, he should’ve yielded the floor to another Democrat who’d filibuster, and then another. Where are the rest of the Dems? For that matter, where was Booker until Monday night?

It’s all good. I was just joshing ya. (: Solidarity.

It’s not a daily reminder unless you post it every day.

Please don’t post it every day.

If political violence is out of the question, Americans would be British.

This is my #1 long-running frustration with Lemmy, and what you’ve suggested would be the solution. In the software’s innards, personal blocks should be ignored in the communities a user mods.

I don’t want to bother with creating an alt, then switching back and forth several times daily, which means … I can’t block anyone.

Sad to see so much anti-Semitism in the world. /s

Can dems stop banning guns?

Fear of Democrats banning guns is a long-time Republican and NRA talking point, but bogus. I sometimes hear Democrats (ie, ordinary people who vote blue) call for banning guns. The number of elected Democrats in any office, though, who propose banning guns, is very near zero, and that number becomes vanishingly smaller for higher officials, such as members of the US Congress.

We’re in for the fight of our lives trying to rescue America, and I am willing to accept almost anyone as an ally, but the barebones minimum is that people who voted for Trump FUCKING DO HAVE TO FUCKING ADMIT THEY WERE FUCKING WRONG.

We’ll probably never know the truth. But even with no slam-dunk evidence, the allegations should be, to say the least, disturbing, especially for the genuine patriots in the MAGA camp.

A good comedy always ends with a big laugh like that, thanks.

$880 billion in Medicaid cuts and $230 billion in cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).

That’s going to kill people, but Elon Musk’ϟ tax bill will go down.

I ain’t doubting you 'cuz what do I know, but making wage theft only a civil, not criminal offense, is just another example of a system stacked for the wealthy and against real people.

Company steals millions of dollars. Years later, the company agrees to give the money back, while admitting no wrongdoing. Nobody’s penalized. Nobody’s arrested. Nobody’s prosecuted.

Why do only companies, not ordinary thieves, get to steal stuff, keep it for years, then grudgingly give it back without penalty, without arrest, without prosecution?

The only article I read said that Musk had called Morgenson a slur for someone of limited intellect, or something like that.

A small example of the big problem of mainstream media’s sanewashing.

Not everything, only the bullshit.

Exactly. It’s not true, whether you like the conclusion or don’t.

Bullshit article.

The Democratic Party is the Washington Generals. They’re part of the show, but they’re not there to win.

Factcheck: Everyone hasn’t told @iriyan@lemmy.ml that they’re flat out wrong about TV ads. I haven’t had my turn yet.

@iriyan@lemmy.ml, you are flat out wrong about TV ads for alcoholic beverages in the USA. I’m cheerfully hoisting an adult beverage soon as I’ve posted this, “as seen on TV.”
