@Radical_EgoCom I've literally been trying to get away from this conversation for a while now. Take it easy.

@Radical_EgoCom I was literally responding to your silly answer. Work it out from there. Grow up and stop being a debate-bro.

@Radical_EgoCom You can work it out for yourself.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden Dude, I think you're misunderstanding a fair bit here. It's just a turn of phrase.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden You're not really saying much of anything to be fair. You waffle a bit and pretend that's an answer.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden It's an expression, but never-mind.

Keep doing what you're doing, and I'm sure Marxists will continue to be a formidable force in US politics and not get shunted by AIpac money for standing against genocide.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden I don't see how that 'answer' assuages anyone's concerns other than your own.

You're not beating the "Marxists would rather win an argument online, rather than actually fight for systemic change" allegations.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden Not really, but I don't think you could.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden Obviously Harris is better than Trump, and all things considered, I actually quite like Harris.

The broader left (I don't care about the specific leftist groups just left unity) seemed to gain much more momentum under Trump than under Obama. Whether that'll happen again under another Trump? Tough to say.

My question always comes down to, "And then what?" because the bit after voting for the lesser of two evils never seems to come.

@Radical_EgoCom @Faithslayer202 @holden The issue is that Democrats know that this very debate is an effective sheep-dogging technique.

I get that alliances with liberals is necessary, but then what? Like seriously, what's the plan? And why does no-one every follow through on that part?

Or is the plan just to maintain a close race between liberal capitalists and crypto-fascists every four years? Cos I see a pattern emerging.

Just look at what happened to Cory Bush.

Just been trying out Bridgy Fed on HesDSL's website and it works really quite well. You can follow him at @hexdsl.com

I've just realised I'm turning into the Michael Caine character from Children of Men (2006).

Deleted the Reddit account today. Too much AI generated nonsense, too US-centric - especially with the election, mis-info everywhere. Just can't be arsed with that sorry excuse for a forum.

@lukito It's a solid UI. It gives your brain plenty of visual hooks, rather than just a bare list.

@pixelfed @loops Is it possible to sign up for the beta?

Yeah, the artefacting on YouTube is definitely getting worse. Not that I really mind, but I wonder what it means.

Are they nerfing Firefox? Are they cutting costs? Is it because I'm adblocking?

@Tesseks It's a good distro IMHO. I've used it a lot in the past and it was really useful and helpful in getting me onto Linux full time.

If you want some light #politics banter with me and Drew, which doesn't involve the discussion of you-know-what then the first 90 minutes of the Dagoth Hour is it.

@ryanhoulihan I don't really mind people being heterosexual, but do they have to shove it down our throats?

@trechnex
99% of elections is vibes. The left in the west seem absolutely insistent on refusing to learn this.
