I dont think the average lemmy user would want a bigger platform in general. They like the atmosphere as it is now and think of bullying people as their right.

More normies woudl chill the overall vibe but you’ll start to see the rose tinters and what ever. Who knows what lemmy would morph into. Im sure capitalism will take its toll, even if its not integrated into the platform.

I havent touched google for what seems like years.

Which is depressing because the sites popularity was based on easy straight forward searching. That got so lost along the way.

Seems to be only r/all… for now.

Try wearing red in crips territory. What youre talking about isnt related to religious freedom as adopted in western cultures.

Got it. Religious freedom as practiced in west is great. Can we move on to more advance topics now?

I dont believe youre a reliable source and dont value youre opinion.

I dont think you were paying much attention. So… theres that.

Decades? 20 years is decades. 30 years is decades. I dont know america 20-30 years ago?

More and more i see trump for what he really is. Hes a bag man. Sure, its lucrative but still contrived. The GOP manipulates him by constantly pushing their agenda on him knowing he will just blindly seek power. Sure he gets fed a bone everytime but he takes all the heat, all the blame, and the GOP can enact their wet dream policy knowing they can walk away from MAGA any day. Its really the lesson Bush taught them. Bush was slaughtered in the media but once he was gone so was all the culpability.

Trump is hand fed. Its almost admirable how devoted the GOP is to implement their agenda that no personal sacrifice from any one person in the party is too much. Too bad, they are evil. Thats the only way this strategy can work.

Sure, the lands not going anywhere but the country I knew is all but gone.

911 was terrible but I never worried about america folding.

Under trump im seriously questioning every day how long this country will survive.

Sci-fi mess up not warning how every damn person would be falling over themselves to be mass surveilled and manipulated.

And defiant children/devious adults will find a work around. The cycle continues.

Quit spiritually attacking them.

Im not really saying that they use science to solve the issue, though. Im just wondering if the people most informed on the issue have done any critical thinking on a new path forward knowing the current path is insurmountable.

Right now, it seems, we are petitioning government and businesses while asking consumers to be conscious.

Maybe its time to start offering options to people who are aware of the issue but dont have means. So maybe they can start taking actions that account for the drastic devastating consequences that are yet to come.

Me, personally, I dont have children. Im hitting mid life but if im honest with myself Im probably way past it. I might see the cataclyism but I dont expect to live through it.

Sorry if you think Im throwing shade. I just dont see how mitigation is possible.

I wont break down all the evidence since I dont want to get in an extended argument but looking at what you posted, given what we know publicly there is room for reasonable doubt.

Here would be my counter arguments without going into detail.

The descripencies in photos released by police during the manhunt.

The bag that was ditched with suspicious reports of its contents.

The improper handling of the weapon.

Not saying these for sure indicate innocence just there is still room for reasonable doubt in the court of public opinion.

I see where youre coming from. Can you tell me the evidence against Luigi?

I just cant believe they never found the person who climbed in the basement window.
