i remember bbc had an experimental mastodon instance, but they dont seem to post anything anymore. i hope they’ll give an update on the trial, anything they found out good bad unworthy whatsoever.

it’s efficiency for corporation to exploit the poor. when people like elon promotes deregulation = efficiency, they just leave the latter part on purpose.

Nah, they dont give a shit about logic, they only know “own the libs!”.

I get it, Trump says insane shit. But the undeniably truth is that it doesn’t matter, pointing out Trump is bullshiting everyday won’t help (but calling out his bullshit is still needed). Democrats need good policies to energize its own base. Joe Biden already has a very low-level approval rating, they need something new, something can resonate with voters, yet Kamala basically ran the campaign like “i’m just like joe biden”. (or even worse on things like border).

the democrat leadership is to blame. i bet they’ll run further right with republicans next election cycle. nowadays it seems they dont care about policies anymore, all they know is just running around shouting things like “abortion!” “trump bad”.

you dont need to know him and he can be anyone on the internet, it doestnt matter, what he is arguing is still very accurate.

After inauguration it will be everyday post about insane-shit-orange-man-just-said.jpg … Remember 2017-2021

You can actually track mail in ballot, so if there is a failure, there would still be time to fix. It not like that the vote failed and people won’t know.

I mean, at some level people do notice trump is 1000% worse, but those people are not red right? By running to the middle/even right, Kamala basically discouraged her own base, she tried too hard to reach “never trump republicans” instead her own base. But turns out those people are marginal compare to liberal/left base, how stupid they didn’t understand this. TFG has a 90% approval rating (within his own party) why tf are you trying to get republicans.

the whole culture war (like transgender/feminism) is just a scapegoat for economy. they knew people are anxious about economy so they need something to direct all those blames. because all they would do for the economy is the exact oppossite: shit like untax the rich, deregulation, cancelling wellfare program, privatize healthcare, all of which will worsen people’s anxious about economy/future.

i dont know which is worse, he made this up to make himself look good, or he actually did this. in the first case doesnt he think it’s so freaking cringe, it’s a north-korean-crying-at-kim’s-funeral vibe. or the latter case, oh… boy…

to put it a better way, i would say he went down the right wing rabbit hole for last 4 or 5 years on twitter. but i would also argue that fundamentally he is just a horrible selfish human being, but disguised as that he was autistic or something.

nowadays sites usually dont provide rss, so you need something to convert webpage to rss, like rssbrige or rsshub, even rssproxy sometimes. rsshub & rssbrige also have categories/catalogs you can check if anything interests you. i wouldnt suggest follow forums with rss, because they tend to update very frequently essentially overwhelm your feeds, but i followed several cat related just for fun.

i already gave you data for beijing in my first comment, those are up to 2023.

i’m not even talking about rural/un-urbanized area. in cities your numbers are still way higher than reality. even in beijing, making 10k plus a month is like top 20%, needless to say “Salaries range from 7,410 CNY (lowest average)” is a day dream.

those data are somewhat accurate in beijing/shanghai/shenzhen, but in no way does it reflects average salary in the whole country. even in tier1 cities 10k average is only achieveable for white collar working class people. a typical blue colloar worker earn around 4k by contrast. people from tier 2/3/4 cities earn way less.

for years tech bros has been framed as liberal/leftist/team blue supporter. but after years of musk shitposting bullshit and almost not even single one called him out, more and more i have a feeling that they ALL are just magas hiding in the closets, they are not allies at all.

if it’s illegal, just sue his ass already. you dont send warning to ordianry people who breaches the law right? at this point i have to say i’ll be happy if musk would continue the lottery, slapping a giant F word in the DOJ’s face.

because by saying “sad and shameful” they are not saying they oppose the gop rhetoric, they simply dont like the tone. 60% of gop still choose to vote for anti-trans candidate in the same survey.
