I’ve noticed a lot of people are the “sit back and watch your neighbors be executed and sent to camps” crowd.

Unfortunately there’s also a lot in the “I would but not alone” crowd.

It’s why left-wing organized groups get alphabetted at the drop of a hat.

Heck, I have about 10 phones in my own house, there’s about 20-25 at my in-laws.

Me because I keep old gadgets

In-laws because they have 8 children, and instead of the trash they just toss old phones into a box for anyone who breaks the new one.

I haven’t really been keeping up with nuclear news, so that’s actually a surprise to me that so many reactors are in-progress!

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the narrative of some is “nuclear is evil” instead of “China is beating us on energy, BUILD MORE TO BEAT THEM!” But oil lobbies really do have their claws into every facet of government… Quadruple down on fossil fuels and smear campaigns, money machine go brrr.

no Democrat is likely to do that

Honestly this is what pisses me off.

When an opponent who literally wants you or yours dead hands you a gun, shoot them with it. Because if you don’t shoot, they will.

Republicans have handed democrats so many tools over the years they could easily wield against Republicans… But they don’t.

They take the “high road.”

The Moral High Road is Filled With Corpses.

Fun fact! This is also how we know when certain asteroids smashed into the earth, because the impact deposits a layer of minerals and elements not found super common in the crust.

Also, sensing equipment that uses or detects radiation as part of its function has to be made of non-radioactive materials in order to not interfere. And since hairless apes started cracking atoms open, all steel is ever so slightly radioactive. They need special preparations to make steel without any isotopes present. This also means pre-1945 steel fetches a higher price in some instances.

That’s the whole point of things like this.

Make it seem super scary, turn public opinion against anything nuclear.

Usually you see articles like this pop up whenever there are renewed discussions for nuclear power plants. Not sure if this is one of those, or just clickbait.

Okay this might sound like conspiracy theory bullshit… But is there any major country preparing to construct nuclear power plants, or is there a looming decision about nuclear power over fossil fuels coming soon?

Because this is the exact kind of news article you see get pushed whenever someone starts making nuclear power seem like the viable option that it is.

Anything that makes it seem like it’s seconds from ending all life on the planet as we know it.

Anything to demonize it.

Anything to turn public perception negative.

My mother keeps sending stuff over Facebook, my sister keeps inviting me to supposedly important events over Facebook, my work wants me to use twitter, and my brother in law keeps sending tiktock videos.

I remind all of them that I don’t use social media, and my Facebook account is only up for the 2 times a year I need it to get ahold of otherwise-unreachable people. If you want something, send me a text or email and be direct.

some suggest that herders need to start acquiring private land and operating like other businesses

Yes, why don’t these poor farmers who have nowhere else to go simply BUY large plots of land?

Let them eat cake.

Here’s a crazy idea: no PERSON is involved in cutting off the mic.

They’re on timers.

X you have 45 seconds to answer. timer clicks down and auto shuts off

Boom.

Nobody has to worry about biased moderation because they wouldn’t let cheeto ramble weirdly for ten minutes.

And more importantly we won’t have to deal with a fucking child doing the "I STILL TALKING AND LOUDER SO MY POINT IS BEST LALALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU* on stage while 30% of the country cheers.

Yes, that is part of the joke.

My grandparents didn’t even update their will when my sister and I were born.

You cannot “pre-emptively” defend yourself, an attack to head off a suspected attack is still an attack.

Other than that semantic nitpick, personally I’m there with you… However, you cannot seriously be pointing this out without also recognizing that Israel is very much the initial offender in any conflict that arises as direct result of their actions in gaza.

If I let a bully sucker punch me so I have an excuse to beat up all the people around them, and then someone else close by hits me, I can’t honestly say I am the one who is defending myself.

6 months probation??? What kind of world do we live in where such drastic punishments are forced upon such good people! Cruel and unusual!

Surely this poor man has suffered enough for trying to overthrow the government to install a fascist dictator!

From my understanding, it’s how many processes it’s running?,

Could be open tabs, but my Firefox always has at least (3) even when I’ve just opened it.

I would bet that you’re all guys

Weirdly sexist take…

Every time I get downvoted, I move an inch closer to the exit door of this community.

Lol OK bye.

Nobody gives a shit and complaining about down votes is the quickest way to get them.

Guess what! Outside of a few custom instances that for some reason want to be reddit, the fediverse doesn’t track your total karma.

Unless you’re going back to keep track of your comments for some weird reason, the only time you see a down voted comment is when you get replies.

I could have hundreds of net down votes by now, but I don’t know because luckily my instance doesn’t track votes.

The point is, it’s a little number next to an arrow. Who gives a shit.

A lot of MAGAts would gladly shoot themselves in the foot if they were certain the bullet hurts “the libs”
