Yeah, mastodon simply doesn’t have an advertising budget, and having to pick an instance, while trivial, is still enough to stop a lot of people from joining.

Playing you? He’s been openly saying exactly what he thinks about Muslims for a decade.

Genuinely the single worst messaging app I’ve ever used. Worse than Skype, which is crazy because Microsoft owns that too.

AFAIK he always claimed to be a centrist until a few days ago. I don’t think he exactly endorsed Bernie, but he’s said very nice things about him and his policies.

… women forcing their way into women only spaces is misogynist.

Smh. You’re not even denying that they’re women, you just don’t like them

Well… They didn’t say that. So you’ll have to forgive people for thinking it applies to all men.

By percentage, but the total birthrate would (continue to) go down.

And now Trump’s gonna make it harder to immigrate, so the population may actually start nosediving.

Mgtow was not met with indifference. They’ve been consistently criticized since the movement first started, and they quickly evolved into a cabal of Nazi-adjacent freaks. Fuck those guys.

There may be some good that could come from a men’s movement for self actualization and improvement, but mgtow sure as shit wasn’t that

I mean, considering how many incels voted for trump, I think we’re pretty much already there. Many of the young men who voted red this election already have no close relationships with any women their age. Obviously women should exercise their autonomy as they see fit. I don’t expect it to change how anyone votes.

I’ll probably be downvoted for this, but progressives have spent the last several years actively shutting down lines of communication with men, particularly white men. For the best of reasons, sure, but it hasn’t been an effective strategy for winning elections.

Maybe this would sway some group of center-left men who didn’t bother voting, but realistically I expect it will have no effect on the ongoing polarization, or exagerrate it.

It’s very good. Whether it outstays its welcome depends on the individual. If you just beeline the main story it’s not all that long, but if you play it as intended it’s quite a long ride.

I don’t regret playing it at all, fwiw

Old racist votes for old racist.

More at 9.

If this is what it takes to sink Trump’s ship then I’ll fully give up on ever making sense of anything ever again.

Don’t get me wrong, that shit show was a national embarrassment, but it wasn’t surprising.

Whatever. Vote, folks.

Idk, it’s been a looong time since I listened to his show, but I always got the impression that a good performance there just meant smoking a bowl and telling some crude jokes… I think she’ll come across as presidential, which is exactly what that audience doesn’t want

They should try telling their franchisees that…

Probably pooped his pants lol

I won’t lose any sleep over it. Thinking about spraypainting trump on some old pallet wood and selling them on etsy as ‘patriot planks’ for $150 a piece.

Fwiw, I don’t think the knife is directly affiliated with Trump; I think they just bought the ad space. I could be wrong though.

Also, that’s not a combat knife. Thats a cheap no-name pocket knife.

Aaaaaand this pales in comparison to all the firearms you can find with Trump’s face engraved on them.

So the Republicans get a lot of fast food from a lot of places, while the Democrats seem to avoid major chains altogether, and when they do get fast food they go for restaurants that (in my opinion) are the most extremely overpriced and worst value (chipotle, panera).

The Republicans also seem to have a particular fixation in chick fil a, which is not surprising given that they campaign more in the south, CFA is typically a bit cheaper than other fast food, and it’s not maligned by Republicans like it still is by many progressives.

It’s about catering for political campaign events.

Are black Americans more likely to be crypto bros? First I’m hearing of it
