2. Yes. I know tons of so call lefists that think nothing of calling for violence against those who disagree with them.

It’s more about whether you’re authoritarian.

A lot of ‘antifacists’ i know are the first people to scream at others for ‘being out of line’ on a political issue. They claim to be anti-facist but practice politics like facists by trying to intimidate, harass, demean, and bully anyone who disagrees with them. Because they are the authority in their mind.

In my mind they act just like the fascist Trump people they claim to be against, they just use different sets of words when they are harassing/screaming/threatening people.

Most folks are neutral on a lot of stuff, and it’s perfectly fine to be that way.

nah bro, it’s a black hole bomb that destroys the solar system.

Truth on lemmy gets downvoted. It’s really that simple. Most of our Nukes are the same age as our grandparents at this point. Our ICBMs are running on 5.25" floppy disks from the 70s. All this shit is OLD and desperately needs modernization for safety and security.

But if the headline was 'USA to replace ICE nukes with EV nukes" it would be upvoted and celebrated.

Yeah, let’s just let China take over the world and nuke us when we get uppity.

they are building, fewer, better bombs, to replace the old ones that qualify for AARP/social security.

bingo. they require attention and effort and you might get something out of them…

social media… is designed to require neither… just like reality tv or candy crush… which are junk.

and same with food. a good meal requires attention and effort to make… cup o noodles requires almost none, but has very little nutritional value beyond hitting your salt and fat receptors.

pretty much.

people who have it seem to be convinced everyone else has it. it’s a cognitive bias. just like white folks think racism isn’t real because they don’t experience it.

what’s far scarier is the revisionist history being pushed in many states and school districts.

money now is worth more than money later.

because of inflation, and also because i can use it now. money i am getting in 30 years is no good to me now.

this isn’t that hard of a concept.

the same reason that you’re better off taking the lump sum vs the 30 year pay out if you win the lottery.

money today that i can use today is worth more than money tomorrow.

and money today that i invest now, will be worth a lot more than money tomorrow that i can’t invest and get interest on

it’s not responsible in terms of my company lasting a long time… but it’s responsible in terms of profit.

yeah, but what if the music i listen to isn’t ‘with it’? what will the kids thing of me? as an old?
