“Longtime party insiders” whining about him is how you can tell he’s good.

He"s using synecdoche, saying “DNC” when he means “the majority of prominent Democrats.” You’re speaking specifically about the actual DNC. That’s why you’re disagreeing even though you’re both right.

If they do this, it is further confirmation that we are actually living in a fascist state.

Could very well be. I’m using OpenWRT and basically did the bare minimum to get it to work.

At least most cars these days no longer inflict burst fire damage when you touch the metal seatbelt buckle, like they used to.

Yeah, it’s only anecdotal but I feel like hobbyists like us, who do slightly unusual things without nefarious intent, who are the ones who get hit with these sorts of issues the most. For example, I’ve noticed that some websites start throwing captchas at me or even just straight-up refuse to load with 403: unauthorized errors because I have my router set up to load-balance across two Internet connections. (At least, that’s my guess as to why it’s happening.)

My other reply to you was literally entirely composed of a supporting link. Quit being disingenuous.

You are factually incorrect.

Liberalism has always been a right-wing philosophy

Same, minus the state pride (Georgia).

Somewhere in there there’s a step “come up with the most sociopathic business plan possible.”

You’ve only been here for three days so you don’t know, but the user you’re replying to was notorious as an emphatic, outspoken critic of the DNC before the change in leadership. It was at the point where half the stuff he said was easily mistaken for tankie anti-Democrat trolling.

If he, of all people, says it’s better now, I, for one, believe him.

“We’ve tried running two shitlib women with ‘status-quo’ platforms during a time when the public is crying out for economic change, and they both lost. That proves women can’t win, because it couldn’t possibly be about our abject refusal to rein in the billionaires!” — shit liberals say

To be fair, if your son cares it’s only because you/society taught him to care.

Does Lemmy have a !rareinsults community yet?

Yes, I also read it as the attack on Gaza being the thing described as incompatible with Jewish values. I almost downvoted the guy’s comment before I realized he misread it.

The oligarchs can’t win on the merits of their policies, so they desperately resort to identity politics to try to divide us.
