Nah, you are online too much. Lemmy is one huge echo chamber about how Trump is gonna destroy the world, he’s a nazi, etc. Heck, I get accused of being a nazi just because I didn’t vote for Harris. And I didn’t even vote for Trump! lmao
I’ve read people who seriously think he’s going to line up gay people and shoot them or put them in work camps, how he’s gonna end presidential term limits and become a dictator, etc.
By the way, these were the exact same things that happened last time he was president!
He’s a dumbass. But so was Biden. We’ll be fine. I promise. Feel free to save this comment and come at me if I’m wrong.
Thanks, amiko!
Sure, but while being on Lemmy, it’s easy to be bombarded by anti-Trump posts, posts that daily say “We’re losing the war. The capitalists won. World is gonna end within 4 years!” or variations of “I’m so sad. I’m afraid I’m gonna be put into a work camp and miss my mom and dad!” etc.
It’s freakin crazy what Lemmy people say.
Hey, maybe you thought all of that before Lemmy. But I’m old enough to have fucked your grandma when she was hot. I have seen these same reactions EVERY FUCKING ELECTION from opposing sides. Since I’ve been following politics in 1986.
And guess what? Nothing changes. Regardless of who’s in office. Same as it ever was. Just keep on doing and voting what’s best for you, ignore the haters, and carry on.
So you peg me as a young guy who spends too much time on the internet do you? 🙂 I’m almost flattered.
FWIW I started getting alarmed when Reagan got elected. The sinking feeling that America was headed towards tyranny was confirmed when Dubya signed the USA Patriot act into law, Trump v1 confirmed to me that the American public had gone fully stupid (because Trump really isn’t the problem, but rather a symptom) and Trump v2 confirmed to me that the American idiots are going to get exactly what they voted for: full-on fascism driven by the billionnaire tech bros - the real masters of the Trump puppet.
I’ve been watching the American republic go from not great to completely terrible for a good half century.
Anyway, back to Charlemagne Tha fucking God: the U-turn is so complete and so obviously timed that it’s almost comically obvious that he’s an opportunistic little shit, regardless of what you think of Trump. In fact, if I was MAGA, I would despise johnny-come-latelies like him: just look at how Steve Bannon lashed at Musk and his newfound love of everything MAGA…
