I can still remember how the news in fucking Germany changed. Suddenly, once Biden was in office, we didn’t get US politics in our evening news multiple times per week anymore. The United States became silent again.
Make America Boring Again
I long for the days when I thought government was boring and not worth my time. I know too much now too go all the way back, but it’s refreshing to have someone just quietly running the nation without starting a shitstorm every time their ego gets a little bit bruised.
It was always worth your time. The whole boomer mentality of not talking about politics is how we got into this mess.
But I’m glad you’re with us now. The sane need all the help we can get.

So just like the old subreddit then? Weird how that piece of culture sticks with them.
The difference is that on Reddit I got suspended from the entire site for “report abuse” because I (correctly) reported misinformation in r/conservative and it hurt the snowflake mods’ fee-fees.
In other words, Lemmy is structurally superior because there are no fascist admins with the power to ban you from the entire network.
Lmao, I reported genocidal comments in r/worldnews and was site banned for the same reason.
I had 4 reports total, 2 were acted on and the other 2 were pretty blatant calls to violence.
It’s actually what made me quit Reddit.
I’m pretty old. Biden has been the best president of my lifetime.
He should be viewed as a national hero for beating Donnie in 2020 and making it stick, which was probably harder than it looked. The US President starting a coup has lots of strings to pull.
This guy LOVES a good old fashioned genocide.
I think the middle person is living on the military grade hopium where there’s bound to be a revolution that solves everything, it’s just around the corner too. So why bother trying to get small wins or even slow down the worsening conditions. Revolution will fix everything.
Any day now…
There are only so many ways to get the kind of society that works, and far too many ways for it to go wrong. It’s kind of a crazy idea to think that burning it down and starting over would be beneficial.
The funny thing is that while Trump got constant media attention for personally saying and doing a lot of inappropriate things that past Republican presidents wouldn’t have, he was actually a fairly normal Republican president in terms of the federal government’s major policies during his term. I suppose he wasn’t actually very interested in the unglamorous business of government and left it to other, less unconventional members of his party.
This isn’t true in the slightest. Trump absolutely destroyed federal government policies. What presidency were you watching? Bush didn’t do anything even close to this much damage to the federal government. Not since Reagan. And that’s honestly being generous to Reagan, because he did a lot of federal government damage.
Do you have any specific Trump-era changes in mind?
Yes OK, but apart from all that, what has Biden ever done?

That’s why the cheesemakers are blessed, so that they’ll increase production which will result in lower cheese prices across the board.
