If you think about it and want to be cynical and game the system intentionally not making white men the protagonist. Will piss off right wingers. They boycot it and create a bunch of press then everyone else rush to your defense and you sell even more copies.

+1 on just sub view. I have two accounts one that has news and politics and one that has none and on my non politics account I see almost none of it other than the stay comment in another sub and because I have the two accounts if it becomes a problem i have no issue just blocking that person. Since I can see their content on the other account.

Can we all just agree that Dude is a gender agnostic term and doesn’t just refer to men. It’s what Bill and Ted would have wanted.

Yeah but who creates most of the service jobs Small business owners and they are not the ones I’m talking about in the capitalist group. The real capitalists just convinced them they are in the capitalist group so they vote with the first group.

I call them the embarrassed millionaires as they vote against themselves on the off chance they make it to the that next tier. The problem men like Howard Pew and John Birch stack the deck against us before most of us were even born.

Remember it was the National Association of Manufacturers and their meeting with James William Fifield Jr in response to FDRs the New Deal that started all this. You can draw a line directly from that meeting to Billy Graham to Ronald Ragan to The Tea Party to Trump.

Also automation is already be coming for those service jobs. Self checkout or order kiosk / mobile ordering anyone at McDonald’s. It turns a service job into a manufacturing job.

The problem is you think of them as one group when there are two white supremacists / religious zealots, and capitalist. The capitalist use the first group to get power to get capital and keep capital for themselves. They want cheap labor while the first group just wants more white babies and less anything else. The second group justs wants cheap labor and zero regulations and they can get cheap labor overseas if there are no regulations so they don’t care about mass deportations.

The only way to do it is run a populist campaign in one of the parties lying the whole way through then switching to an independent party that actually cares about the people and have enough numbers to get a coalition in both houses of congress. Doing all this all together without talking to each other or giving yourself away.

I always expect it’s they don’t have the room. Grandma did a reverse mortgage. So you don’t get the house can’t pay for storage fees. Might as well get rid of it.

Prefer or can only afford great idea i never thought of non the less

Very cool so really host is the root meaning as far as the written record shows.

Honestly I think that only works if society keeps progressing in any form for a generational time scale. Women protecting themselves and enjoying the time left. Seems like a valid course of action as anything else.

Hotel comes from the French word hôtel and that word is is defined as places providing care. Really the h in hotel would be hospitality but really that is not the case.

This is very much on point I have always seen America as as really having four parties masquerading as two. Progressives , corporate Left , Corporate Right, and zealots and bigots.

The problem is the Corporate Left and corporate Right have been edging Progressives and the zealots and bigots on single issues but never following through as they wouldn’t have anything to campaign on. Trump was too stupid to realize this but when he killed Roe (not to be crass but ) he finely let the zealots and bigots cum and they fell in love.

With Progressives that happened with Obama but he just kept edging us never truly giving what we need other than it could be worse. Instead of single-payer Health we got a Republican idea for healthcare.

Every Progressive will tell you that the electoral system is broken but do we ever get Democrats running on election reform. No because both Corporate Left and Corporate Right don’t want that. The country is divided up like cable companies Charter gets the northern states and Comcast gets the southern states. But they didn’t see musk going over their heads with StarLink fucking up the arrangement.

I do like the the moon landing one since I always say the government payed Stanley Kubrick to film the moon landing but he demanded to shoot on location.

I think the real question are there any think-tanks that are willing to fight dirty to get liberal policy like the heritage foundation does for fascism.

The ending of get smart but on nick and night not first run I’m not that old

It goes to their kid’s that don’t have any real skills and they run it into the ground or worse become president of the United States.

This is definitely not uplifting news.

Ah I only used Digg and never heard of reddit till Digg died and never joined most of the big subs. But also reddit was so small back then a small bump is a good kick start. Google trends data correlates with what I saw Digg was more search for in 2008 then by 2011 Digg was dead after the 4.0 debacle in 2010 and reddit took off in 2011.

I was there too i was one of the ones that jumped over. I know its a big internet so maybe we both had different experiences. So maybe you are right and the timing was just a correlation and not causation.
