Apparently 70-80% of Americans live from paycheck to paycheck.

This is why safety nets are important. In US you can lose your job, not get unemployment and lose access to doctor.

This. Unfortunately we are living in interesting times, and this administration counts on inaction.

These are also meant to be peaceful protests, despite what some night say, historically peaceful protests are more successful than riots.

Look for example at Ramapo 58 district:

Harris only got a single vote in a district that historically votes for Democrats. What are the odds. But maybe Democrats just lost popularity.

But then look at Senate

Now democratic candidate wins by 94.12% what are the odds?

And this is not a single district, there are many others like that.

Frankly after election there are two things that bugged me in California. There was a proposition that removed mandatory work requirement for inmates comparing it to a modern day slavery. There was no one who was willing to endorse vote against it (I suppose due to optics) yet the proposition failed.

When he visited CA after fires were already put down and made that spectacle with water dam, he also mentioned that he had a good feeling about next election.

I have a feeling that maybe CA voting is also compromised and this was a test for California, as trump winning here would be extremely suspicious, but no one will care about this proposition.

It definitively is, he similar to trump dies not have a filter. He just counts on things being ambiguous enough that won’t affect him.

Maybe not, but there’s some merit to it. Initially it was a highly desirable car, now one is ashamed to be in because owner is a Nazi. Another problem is that there’s much higher risk that someone else will damage it (again, because of the owner).

The news sources (even the “leftist” ones) are all owned by billionaires.

The real war is a class war, the minorities are used to make us fight with each other.

He gets most attention, but apparently 90% off then didn’t even have any conviction and even those who did maybe should be deported to their home country not to a gulag.

And no matter how much they say they are guilty, all deserve a due process. In a democratic country you can’t just let someone decide who gets it and who doesn’t.

Fuck this administration.

Yeah, we’re fucked.

At least it did. Can you access !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com ?

If you want to also access those communities then yeah, if you don’t then doesn’t matter.

There are some servers that defederate from lemmy.world, for example beehaw.org

No, it’s a completely different instance. It was less restrictive and not banned by some communities, for example lemmy.world blocks piracy communities on dbzer0 and is also defederated from beehaw.org
