America was designed to be a confederacy ala the EU. Post civil war Federalism was the beginning of the end for the small ‘d’ democracy that the framers intended. Everything since has been duct taped together. Prior to the civil war the Federal Government had very little power. Liberal progressives spent the last 150 years centralizing power in the Fed and are now being hoisted by their own petard. It’s funny actually.

I’m going out on a limb here, but [NPC karma farming opinion]
Trump is a bell weather that the post-WW2 Breton Woods paradigm is over. That’s all he is. We are going to either go through crazy poltico-socioeconomic change or be crushed under the weight of our own inflexibility.
If your problem is proprietary computing getting increasingly bloated, invasive and esoteric then Linux is the solution. You sound like a battered wife making excuses for her husband.
It’s shorter if you just write “I’m stupid”
Reminds me of COVID
Arch is plenty stable

I’m being intentionally simplistic. Of course Dems are in on the grift of hollowing out the country.
This is the truth. Politics that really matter happen at home. Prioritize self-reliance and live in accordance with your values to the best of your ability. It’s literally the best you can hope for which is why it is the singular pursuit of people throughout history. The smart man knows the government does not and will never care about him.
Pretending Democrats aren’t corporatists is just dishonest at this point.
They really are the same though and no this isn’t some demoralization post. People always get pissed on here because they think it’s propaganda or something. There is no meaningful difference between Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell outside of the performatives. It’s a joke.
Neoconservatism ruled the last 40 years but it’s not even a “conservative” doctrine. It’s a bipartisan Zionist foreign policy. Trump is a knee jerk response to Dems alienating people with centrist social opinions, Republicans shipping jobs overseas and both of them sustaining pointless forever wars.
Yes. Even for non-Catholics it’s notable because the Pope has so much influence in Christendom.
Blessed Pascha everyone. Christ is risen!
You cannot be racist against white people 🤣
I’m sure the same kind of person who complains about a radicalized young white generation.
Yes. Men and women are different.

Most of the Lemmy crowd would probably side ideologically with Thomas Jefferson and he called the Federal government the “foreign department”.
