Culvers opened up some restaurants near me in the past few years, and it is so much better than In N Out. I’m glad y’all Midwesterners gassed them up enough for them to expand out this way.

The fries are the worst. They put no seasoning on them and they are never crispy. I don’t get how the place is so popular. I want to like them, because they have great prices, and give fairer wages to employees than almost all other fast food places, but it’s just not very good.

They seem to be doing fine without me, though. I work across the parking lot from one, and it is packed for every single hour they are open.

Its not over yet. I was raised in one of these places. My schooling was a joke. Then I discovered the internet, and all that brainwashing they tried to do in primary school faded pretty quickly.

These kids aren’t going to be that easy to lie to with the way the internet is. Some will fall for the propaganda but many will not.

I feel like the way out is global and cultural in nature,

I agree that it starts with a sense of a global community. Instead of people considering themselves a citizen of their homecountry, they need to switch to the mindset of being a citizen of Earth.

We now have the technology to get past the language barrier, so it is more possible to get people together, talking about our future as a species more than anytime in our history.

One thing that could help is some sort of globally available social media, or forum that automatically translate to the language of the reader. Imagine if a Chinese person could post something in Chinese, but English speakers could read and respond in English, and vice versa.

Even though your day is ruined, you made my day with this perfectly crafted insult. Thanks.

If you are actually arguing that our accomplishments in space aren’t real, in good faith, you are very uneducated on the topic.

If the US made up the moon landing, we have many nations that have the technology to call out the lie. Yet none have, not even supposed ‘enemies’ of the US.

That one seems harder to ‘work out’, than your assumption that we couldn’t go to space with the technology at the time.

People have even simulated the first moon landing using the same Apollo guidance code used in 1969. So there is a lot of evidence for anyone to work that one out.

I think, removing loop holes, and making sure everyone pays there share is a much better fight

That is the whole goal of focusing on ‘taxing the rich’, though. These two are the same thing stated in different ways. The only people who abuse these loopholes are the rich. The working class already pays their share.

Maybe you just have a problem with the wording, I guess? Because you don’t seem to disagree, at all, from the quote above.

Also, ‘debauchery’, in this case just means more people are happier being themselves, and loving who they want to love, more than almost anytime in history.

These kind of people ignore all the regular kind of debauchery, like priests committing sexual abuse against children.

Reddit brought far more right-leaning individuals.

Definitely not going to argue with you there. I switched here to get away from that exact thing, and because I felt much more at home on Lemmy with people like you in the comments(I see you in the comments all of the time <3).

I was sick of seeing brain dead right wing and lib talking points being upvoted to the top of every thread. So it doesn’t surprise me that a lot of the Reddit immigrants are more right leaning.

Still, I am proof that at least some of us left Reddit because we found a home here surrounded by more left-leaning people. I find myself agreeing with a lot more people here than I ever did on Reddit.

Foss loving Linux leftists

I feel so called out right now.

Didn’t Lemmy have almost no content before the reddit migration?

If the Reddit fiasco didn’t happen I would have never even looked into Lemmy. I would imagine at least half, if not the majority, of Lemmy users joined around the same time.

I haven’t looked at Reddit since then, and I most definitely feel like Lemmy is much better than Reddit. I think you are focusing too much on the few Reddit immigrants that complain, and you interact with many of us that don’t complain, more often than not.

It really is.

I guess if I had to pick I’d definitely choose the lifetime of prison, but with the harem, or whatever. It would still get old pretty quick, I imagine. I understand the eventual insanity, for sure.

I definitely feel worse for the women in that situation, but maybe they were allowed to rotate out and leave, at the very least.

I’m confused. I may have missed it, but why are religious beliefs even in this conversation? Did he say that he shot her for Jesus or something?

I agree that this POS should rot, the video just shows a murderer murdering an innocent person.

Edit: I missed the part of the video where the lady says the Jesus stuff. I see what you are saying now.

Bookman’s is awesome. They got them down in AZ.

I feel like the sarcasm was pretty obvious in that comment, but maybe I’m missing something.

Just chiming in to say Panopticon is great. I enjoyed the civility of the discussion here, as well.

He was already winning by every available metric.

I just looked for myself, and NPR/PBS survey has Biden ahead. Many other polls have it basically tied. A few have Trump in the lead by 2-3 points.

I wouldn’t personally call that winning by every available metric, although I would agree with you that it looks like Trump has a slight lead.

Good to know actually. Appreciate the breakdown.

Agreed. Was just stating what the law is.

Yea but what you actually mean by that is:

Agreed. Was just stating what the my local state law is.

Its important, because people should know that their local state laws around this may be different.
