You’re free to be wrong.

As are you.

Have a pleasant day! (no sarcasm)

I agree I think it’s fucking horrible and I think Chuck Schumer and everyone on any side of the political aisle that upheld this should be in a jail cell too.

Are you having a stroke? I don’t follow your point and/or syntax.

I was making reference to this.

Wait. If how can there be any “nuance” if you can’t compare the two parties? Is a comparison of apples with oranges flawed because of the “nuance”?

I never said you can’t compare. I’m saying this comparison is devoid of any content. The establishment dems suck for many reasons. None of which you can find here.

You can have your own interpretation but don’t assume that this was OP’s intent.

I think I will.

[edit] the point that everyone is emphasizing is the Republicans is setting the US on fire. The Dems have put on rallies to stop it. The posts that are saying “both sides” are just insane to me, but whatever. [/edit]

Two parties in a two party system is no case of “apples and oranges”. That’s as close to a fair comuarison as yo’'re gonna get

stroke much?

seriously, this isn’t a “fair comparison” because it doesn’t address any sort of nuance nor is it supposed to. It’s supposed to make people go: “yeah the dems suck too” rather than understand anything about what’s going on.

If you claim to be on the same page then whatever, we can just agree on our core points leave it at that.

Nobody said the Dems were perfect OR not bad through the chain.

I can’t deal with US politics right now and this thread.

I’m fucking Canadian and people upvoting this both sides nonsense is getting my blood boiling.

I thought this enlightened centrist shit was over with but people are bringing it up like they’re some next-level IQ genius. When in reality they’re trying their to push people to the right (whether they understand it or not).

What are you talking about the initial argument is completely insane to be begin with. I think Biden came into office and reduce child poverty or hunger or something by half as his first action.

We’re gonna compare that to Trump destroying the economy, removing due process, open up national parks to logging, letting DOGE cut departments with corruption, invading other countries?

Correct, but still not even close to the same thing. More of this “balanced” stuff.

Anywho on the plus side, he’s getting wrecked in the polls vs AOC who’s looking to take his place though.

I used to be a Bill Maher fan (like in my teens) his smugness was really off-putting though so I ignored them.

Religulous would have been more fun if he wasn’t such a prick in it. His outro was annoying AF.

Bill Burr said he was on the side of the student protestors calling for an end to the Palestinian genocide. Then Bill Maher said (I’m paraphrasing) that it’s the same as being pro-Hamas. Fuck Bill Maher.

Oh shit. Actually I completely forgot about that. I really didn’t like his takes on that …

I think he was arguing that it was going to be hugely costly to the developer to keep games running after the fact and how difficult it was going to be. I really wanted to give him a fair shake but it really did feel full of straw man stuff because the stopkillinggames stuff wasn’t really about that.

Oh I dunno, I avoid a lot of drama and just watch his takes on YouTube. Didn’t realize Lemmy really hated this guy (deserved or not).

It’s a shame he reacted that way to you, not cool just deleting the discussion.

[edit] to the downvoters *to this current comment *… on the original post it’s fine but for this specific one go fuck yourself, have a horrible day [/edit]

That’s rather rude and untrue … the programming language isn’t at all nice! /s

ducks and runs away

I’m British, so I just call it rocket.
