The people who can stop this are sufficiently privileged that they don’t feel they’ll be affected by Trump, and/or they hate paying taxes more than theyre worried about fascism.
They’re also oblivious to history, both recent (Nazi Germany and the Night of the long knives) and modern day (Putin’s Russia, and the fate of oligarchs who crossed him)
Meanwhile, the Americans have legalized murder in politics.
Yes. That’s the point.
The whole continent just pivoted Right, and thusly endeavours like this one are dead on arrival.
It’s a collective “you”. Europe went all-in on Right- parties, and squaring that with “tax the rich” is challenging.
“Going to be”?
If this is something you want, you shouldn’t be voting for right-wingers, then, should you?
Do they?
Because their actions imply otherwise.
We’ve even had an “Evil must be opposed!” moment.
Gee, maybe you should have spent more time improving the lot of everyday people and less time playing footsie with billionaires?
A lot of neoliberal erstwhile-progressives are about to find out the consequences of selling out their principles for a seat at the rich kids’ table.
Most of Europe’s already found this out, Biden and Trudeau are looking at the same thing, and I expect Starmer will be out on his ass after four years of failing to help the poor and middle class, as he’s so busy right now assuring everyone that he’s not a socialist like Corbyn.
All those gains that were made in the 2010s? We’re at real risk of losing them as corporations try and triangulate their way to maximum revenue.
After Anheueser Busch welched, the right smelled blood in the water.
The progressive left is going to need to fight very hard and make a lot of allies because we’re so very close to snapping back to the 1990s, if not the 1950s.
How much of this is decline at the expense of Windows 11, due to Steam lowering barriers to entry, fatigue with Windows’ hard selling, and/or extending the useful like of hardware that W11 abandoned.
So, money is speech, is pollution speech too?
Ironically, WP for Macintosh was probably the best WYSIWYG word processor in existence, especially since the great Word 5.1->6.0 regression.
Correct. Word’s was page and whitespace only, Wordperfect was nearer to markup, like HTML/XML, you could see bold, italic, font size changes, etc.
Does it work the other way? Can I follow Threads users without being on threads.net myself?
Coincidentally, that’s what using it is like, too. :)
To be fair, that’s a British style of writing. It’s a loaded word in North American journalism, but neutral in the UK.
This would be accurate if they ever cared about neonatal or prenatal health… They don’t.
Infant mortality being sky-high is completely fine. Mothers with no supports, nutrition, or health care? Fine. A baby can die in utero as a result of neglect and they’d say it was God’s will, or rather that it’s God’s will that they not pay taxes for health care.
Ugh…
How did PCs beat out the Amiga, Mac and ST with nonsense like that?
Doesn’t rclone work?
