"People like" me? Care to clarify? There won't be a "power shift." There will be no uprising. There will be no revolution.

Maybe you can enlighten me on what will happen to people like me. I'd love to make some more FBI reports. Go on, let's find out.

Exactly. :)

think the best we can do given the circumstances is to be careful about how we consume as that can promote apathy and further doomscrolling

Agreed. So many on Lemmy and Reddit just doomscroll all day, all night. Never looking up to see the people around them who are smiling, going on with their lives, enjoying good conversation, hugging, kissing, laughing, etc.

The world isn't perfect. I get that. Especially depending on what country you are in.

But here in the US we have it sooooo good, it is actually rude to complain about how tough things are here, because so many other people have is way worse and actually have real problems.

Here people complain about making 80K a year on their very first jobs from college, and that their mom watches Fox News too much and/or their "all" Lemmy section has more than one post by Universal Monk. Big. Fucking. Deal. lol

I'm not a Trumper. I didn't vote for Trump. I actually voted socialist party, friend.

And yep, I live here in America. Not fantasy at all. I described what was happening outside in my view just as I was writing it.

I know you won't see this because you blocked me, but just in case I am getting in before you block, I wanted to say you made a great post! I upvoted ya.

It's strange to me that you would block me because I think Luigi is a scumbag, but that's totally your right. And I still think he's a scumbag. I also feel that history will prove me right; he is not the hero you all think he is.

But the rest of your post had really great points!

Organizing for what though? What are you protesting?

But if it's the same story, who cares the news source?

Also, you are totally welcome to post articles to this sub, don't just put in the comments.

Post in the main sub, friend. Be the change ya wanna see!

Maybe it's just my instance or something, but every freakin article in this community is by me. So please, feel free to post some of your own.

Thanks! The sub is pretty bare because I just can't find much on Libertarian Socialism. But I have it there so when I do occasionally run across something, I throw it in there. :)

But yeah, I am freakin' loving the DOGE stuff. It's hilarious how may Lemmy people are just hating on it because of Musk and Trump. If Bernie or AOC would have started this thing, Lemmy would have stars in their eyes. Because sooo much money is being wasted by the government.

Well actually...

I'm a Libertarian Socialist. So trust me, I'm all about a lot of Libertarian values. I even created a sub called Libertarian Socialism. !libertariansocialism@sh.itjust.works

But since most people don't know about Libertarian stuff, I just shorthand it and go with Socialist when describing myself.

I actually grew up in the town that started the Libertarian Party here in the US.

But friend, the last US Libertarian Party candidate SUCKED! He had zero charisma.

The US Libertarian Party has a lot of great goals, but they need to work on getting better candidates.

I am socialist.

I don't write the articles, friend. You don't have to read them. Posting something I find interesting doesn't mean I subscribe to all the points of view in an article.

If you find there is something troubling in the article, please reach out to the people who write it.

I guess a block is overdue

Sounds like it is. You should definitely block me. Because I'm not gonna stop posting. I'll post whatever I want, whenever I want, wherever I want.

Thanks, friend! :)
