Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

Was. Newsom is a Democrat.

Yes it was. California had a Republican in charge the people liked and kept around. Only really because he was an actor.

If Schwarzenegger was a random nobody, he wouldn’t have won the recall.

Reminder that even Democrats banned it and “commie hellhole” California had its governor veto it.

So this was proposed by the Wichita mayor under the guise that RCV was too complicated for people to understand, and likely kelly signed the ban because of fear she might lose her minor majority. Total fucking bullshit politics as usual.

Sounds like them. Capitulating to Republicans because of fear.

Yes, I’m just saying making Republicans do extra work is good.

Did she veto it?

“You don’t understand, the people working on the Death Star just had a job to do and to follow its orders. It’s not any one of their fault that it blew up planets. RIP the brave workers on the Death Star I and Death Star II.”

Small niche where the user is active, big international service that everyone uses that has zero connections to them.

Gee I wonder why people are talking about lemmy.world

“Tankies are a serious threat to domestic and international politics. Please ignore that only 1% of all people know what that is. Also let us actively keep a terrorist and retroactively remove their comments before it became news, because the FBI made us.”

Holy shit, that is just pure racism. Good way to prove their point, you dingus.

I mean lemmy.world aims to be Reddit 2, and reddit had jailbait, fatpeoplehate, the_donald, keeps Gamergate subreddits open, r/conspiracy, and so many more horrid things kept up because it made more clicks.

So why wouldn’t lemmy.world keep an active terrorist on board? Think of the potential money to be made.

While Kansas has a Democratic governor, I wouldn’t call it a blue state.

Ah so the one time it happened it doesn’t count.

If you want my personal opinion, it depends on how you want lemmy.

.ml is held by Marxist-Leninists. Most users there aren’t, but if you care about that, its either for you or isn’t for you.

.world is held by centrist liberals. Most users don’t care about that, but if it matters to you, there ya go.

My instance is for anarchists. There’s ones for queer people. Or people who speak German. Or Italian. Or French. Some are made for being NSFW, some are made to shitpost, some are isolated by choice or massively de-federated.

But most instances don’t care who you are or why you’re on it, just don’t break the rules.

So far lemmy.cafe lemmy.zip sopuli.xyz all seem fine, I don’t recall a constant issue with the userbase.

When you refuse to listen to reason, yes you deserve it.

• Blocked the right to vote for one sex
• Blocked the right to vote for non-whites
• Polls taxes blocked the right to vote for non-whites and the poor
• Excluded Natives from voting
• The first vote for the president had less than 1% of Americans vote, Washington running unopposed for his terms
• Voter ID laws are a tax on the poor
• Gerrymandering where the politicians choose the voters.
• Electoral college
• No time off for voting, meaning the working poor aren’t likely to vote
• Voting by mail blocked by most states, the ones that the EC weighs unequally
• Parties have sued to keep people and other parties off ballots
• Parties have argued before court to not legally require fair primaries, as there’s no legal basis for it

Yeah, democracy.

Gov. Mark Gordon (Republican) signed HB 165 on March 18.

West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey (Republican) signed SB 490 the March 19.

Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly (Democrat) signed SB 6 into law on April 1.

North Dakota Gov. Kelly Armstrong (Republican) signed HB 1297 on April 15.

Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (Republican) signed HB 1706 which became law on April 17.

5/6 are Republican shitheads however.

Holy shit the jokes just write themselves. It’ll be amazing if .world doesn’t try to censor this.

Man I am just glad I never made an account there.

STAR voting

Your STAR voting video doesn’t exist on my end, America here if that matters for copyright/prohibition.

Democrats in office: “They can’t do anything major, they have to abide by decorum and rules. …Yes the rules are made up with zero consequence if they’re broken, but we have to abide!”

Democrats when in minority: “They can’t do anything, they don’t have the votes.”

Republicans in office: FULL EVIL ALL TIME

Republicans when in minority: GUMMING THE SYSTEM, SABOTAGE EVERYTHING

And most voters cant see this and think the Democrats are the good guys when they just approve of anything Republicans want, not even trying to meet halfway.

No. They haven’t fillibustered anything, only vote yes on what Trump wants.
