Ugh, now all I can afford is “not me” to install them. Not experts that’s for sure.

(this is not a joke, not really).

No, I have a lot of experience in liberal organizations and they are not, despite the memes, closer to conservatism than progressivism. It honestly makes me feel like most people on lemmy have never really worked with liberal groups.

The major differences between a liberal and a social democrat or progressive comes down largely to deciding when a market has failed and when to use government intervention, both Liberals and progressives are fine with intervention, only the threshold changea. We want the same things, mostly, but disagree on how to get them.

Conservatives, philosophical Conservatives anyway, won’t typically even consider such a thing, and often do not even want the same things as Liberals or progressives.

This both sides same stuff just hurts progressive causes, because it sours mushy people with little to no real philosophy on voting for liberal parties. Those people flip flop back to Conservatives when they get angry and we lose the progress we’ve made, as is about to happen in Canada.

I know that conflating Liberals and Conservatives is practically lemmys official pass time, but I have to point out they are not the same.

Biden in the US and Trudeau in Canada both deserve a lot more credit than they get, but the mood in western nations is pretty sour.

I think you’re confusing social democracy with democratic socialism. The first is as you say, and has huge overlap with liberalism, left liberalism, and progressive liberalism.

The second is achieving socialism through democratic means, without the need to overthrow government as once was believed to be entirely nessecary.

But then again, terms do change context over time, and by place. So maybe I’m the one who is wrong.

Conservatives have no media literacy and its a global problem.

I did not know that was a thing and I absolutely would buy one. Thank you.

No disk drive is no purchase from me. I even saved up the money to buy one, but I won’t without a disk drive.

Very interesting results, especially with the rise of AI Bot driven interviews who could filter people out over it.

Will this stand up to the death of Chevron deference? Or are we 3 weeks away from a judge throwing the rule out unless congress passes a specific law.

Looks like I’m out of a job.

You’ll enjoy the podcast for sure. Give it a listen.

I like behind the bastards, you get to learn the history of both living and dead ass holes in some good detail.

If I want a laugh at pop culture, the weekly planet is my go to, it’s funny chat about comic books, movies and comic book movies. Plus the back catalogue is huge so chances are they’ve had an episode about something you’ve liked. I just really like laughing at things I’ve enjoyed.

Also check out debunking a murderer. Remember making a murderer on Netflix? Turns out that doc was bullshit, dude totally did those murders. Hear the prosecutors side and all the evidence the Netflix show left out.

Finally, slow burn. A long format episodic deep dive into recent history. Each season covers some important events, like Nixon, tupac and biggie, Bill Clinton, etc. I learned a lot from it.

I would expect that the planets gravity while heading into the sun from outside the solar system would greatly disturb the existing planets and probably throw some of them into new orbits if not out of the solar system entirely.

New fear unlocked.

Mr big brain resorting to threats of violence.

Godwin thinks Trump Hitler comparisons are totally fair because Trump is a fascist looking to install a fascist regime in America. It’s a good read.

No, I’m not.

Pretty much only pirate when something isn’t on QoBuz.

It’s like kissing a peanut.
