Absolutely disgusting. I don’t know how I can vote for this despicable person again. Appalling. Democrats are supposedly the good party?

Give me one reason to vote for this fascist that isn’t “he’s not Trump.”

P.S. Willem van Spronsen was a hero, and I wish we all could follow his example.

Fuck your imaginary border.

I voted for Biden because I was convinced he wouldn’t be bolstering fascist policy. Why would I be fooled again?

If you’re enabling this system, then you’re part of the problem. You don’t see me treating refugees and immigrants like political pawns.

You are twisted, sick, and deranged.

I already threw my vote away by voting for someone who continued Trump’s fascist border policy. ThRoW yOuR vOtE aWaY wake the fuck up, Biden is just more Trump, and his supporters are just as unhinged and cultlike. All you do is parrot the same tired lies.

Facts. Look at any thread where Biden is rightly criticized for these fascist politicies

@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

70% of the American electorate considers a problem.

See, this is what I mean by “treat them like political pawns.” If 70% of people thought LGBTQ+ people should be put to death, then apparently you’d be alright with that. You are a sick, sad individual

You are a horrible person. You don’t see immigrants and refugees as humans worth saving. Every comment you make reveals your true character. You lack all empathy.

@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

Answer me: If 70% of the population believed we LGBTQ+ people should be put to death, then you’d think that’s alright?

That’s what you’re doing here, but with immigrants. The real problem is you don’t see immigrants as humans. Their lives are expendable to people like you.

LinkOpensChest_wav ,
@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

Because you think if 70% of the population believes we should dehumanize and imprison innocent people, then you’re just fine with that.

YOU SAID IT, not me.

This, but unironically. No point in electing a different fascist. We have to cut the tumor out of the body.

“Securing the border” is just political speak for trampling on the rights and dignity of immigrants. Again, I’m not that naive to be deceived by this crap. I’m way too old and have seen too many lies from politicians.

And I don’t compromise and barter with innocent lives. I’m not that shitty of a human.

Weren’t people in 1980 still burning leaded gasoline, flicking lit cigarettes out of car windows, placing kids unprotected in the backs of station wagons, and serving Big Macs in foam containers?

I’ve worked at several restaurants here in the US, and they all had both sparkling and still water from the fountain

You also might be surprised by how many guests would order sparkling water

LinkOpensChest_wav ,
@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

Most do have it if they have a soda fountain. You might have to ask for it. You’re right that it’s not normalized, so you might have to ask for it, but I always served sparkling water on request, and that’s in a fairly rural town in South Dakota.

Yeah, I’ve noticed it’s gotten really bad. I’m not a sports fan myself, but I’ve tried watching NFL with my brother, and it’s borderline unwatchable due to the sheer amount of ads.

LinkOpensChest_wav ,
@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

I’m gradually getting to the point where I’ll drop Spotify. Shoving ads for podcasts in my face every time I launch the app was bad enough, but now their app has become such a bloated mess that it bugs out whenever my phone is switching between wifi and mobile data. I have more than 1k songs downloaded just so I don’t have to deal with that, and now I have to deal with it because it’s more important to them to show ads and promotions than it is for their app to do what it’s designed to do.

And before anyone says “tHoSe ArEn’T aDs,” showing me recommended artists and podcasts against my will is absolutely a form of advertising. Do you think they’re showing me new releases from Joe down the street? These are paid promotions, aka ads.

Where I live, you get very little over air TV. In fact, I’m not sure there’s anything now.

We don’t pay for TV, but I have a little yo-ho-ho station, check out DVDs from the library, stream, or occasionally watch one of those free Pluto channels if I just want background noise

Makes perfect sense now. I think my brain had a moment

It is a good idea to post a TL;DW when posting a video link.

I have noticed that some users here don’t have time to watch videos. I think on most of the video links I share here, there are always users commenting that it is better to read an article than watching this video. To be honest, I don’t like all this complaining. It is kind of annoying....

That Family Guy scene where Stewie says “mom, mom, mommy, mommy” over and over again and then runs out of the room

‘Sound of Freedom’ Filmmakers: “No Single Interest Group Owns the Issue of Trafficking” (www.hollywoodreporter.com)

Director Alejandro Monteverde and co-writer Rod Barr say they wanted their film — which has been associated with QAnon and become highly polarized even as it’s grossed $172.8 million — to bring an apolitical awareness to an important matter, which "is not a conservative or a liberal issue."

Reported for being disproportionately hostile. There is no reason to attack someone over something as silly as web browsers.

…therefore, the more people who switch to non-chromium browsers, the better.

It’s not that I don’t care. I intend to do whatever I can to help prevent it. But at the end of the day, if people keep supporting platforms like YouTube, then I see the enshittification of the internet as inevitable. We’re literally welcoming it by doing so.

It was, actually. I guess you just attack people without even realizing it. Let me guess: You’re a redditor?

LinkOpensChest_wav ,
@LinkOpensChest_wav@midwest.social avatar

Good point, there are few people as unlikable than redditors, who are so fragile that they need to disparage other people with words like “stupid,” or tell other people they’re “too sensitive.”

On that note, in my experience, 100% of those who call others too sensitive are colosally bad, unempathetic humans.

What happens if you switch the user agent header? Most of these sites that don’t work with Firefox actually do work but are deliberately designing them not to function with Firefox.

For example, I got Bing AI to work by switching it to mimic Edge.
