Honestly, I'm not mad, its just funny how state/corporate sponsored violence is all okay but a pleb making a joke (its not even a real threat c'mon) is not okay.

I got banned from world for similar. Also got banned for stating a fact: democrat joe Lieberman single-handedly killed the single payer option during the passage of obamacare/aca.

The libs can’t cope.

Edit for the libs:

A senator from Connecticut, the insurance capital of the world, became the industry’s go-to guy. Insurers had spent years investing in Sen. Joe Lieberman, a former Democrat-turned-Independent. During the reform debate, the watchdog group Public Campaign Action Fund, (now called EveryVoice), called Lieberman an “insurance puppet,”noting that insurers had contributed nearly half a million dollars to his campaigns over the years.

The Democrats needed Lieberman’s vote to get reform passed, and insurers knew it. Shortly before the Senate was set to vote on the bill, Lieberman said he would vote for the bill only if the public option was stripped out.

Cope and seethe libs. Your electoralism and ability to be easily fooled by the DNC’s lies but but republicans! have led us to this mess. And yes, it goes without saying the republicans are no better. But who needs enemies when one has backstabbing democrats for friends? But if we vote harder we’ll have the votes! no, you fucking won’t. Another fucking patsy will make sure to torpedo any kind of progressive legislation, anything to the left of neoliberalism. See Manchin, Sinema, and the fucking senate parliamentarian for examples.

Yeah, it would have been a lot better if leftists people simply hadn't voted in the first place. Having a Republican in his seat instead would surely have improved things

It wouldn’t of changed anything. How are you not seeing the logic?

If one protects CEOs aren't they the one advocating violence against the common people?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 week ago

Yes, advocating for the killing of children in the most literal sense

We need to move communities off LW.

Lemmy is way too dominated by those bootlicking batards

I think World just need to accept that they're pissing into the wind at this point, I've never seen a platform so united on something.

Try to praise Spez anywhere on Lemmy

we can't HAIL SPEZ?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

That would be viewed as obvious rage bait on most of the platform.

To be fair, the post is a news report covering the CEO's public mass death threat, not an endorsement of it.

Maybe they misread depose as 'dispose' idk .

Bunch of sensitive cucks.

Well the single minded American people are attacking random McDonald's workers, they're in the clear.

Meh, if you're still on that comm at this point you deserve it

Is there an alternative community for US News? There is [email protected] for USA discussion, [email protected] for world news, but not sure about US news

Maybe [email protected] ? Although that admin is known to be power tripping: https://feddit.org/post/5508290
