You’re not wrong but Tesla is probably more of a meme stock at this point. We might not be able to blame Wall Street for this one. There’s a lot of retail investors in Tesla stock because they think Elon is a super brain genius despite all evidence to the contrary.

Biden didn’t support segregation. He worked with segregationists to pass legislation. To call Biden a segregationist an insult to Cornpop. And you don’t want to insult Cornpop. Cornpop was a bad dude.
This is a bit like saying we shouldn’t judge the leaders of the Confederacy by modern standards as if there weren’t slaves and abolitionists and a global movement to end slavery. Trump was notably racist even for the 70’s. He literally refused to rent to black people and there was a whole federal housing discrimination case. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/28/us/politics/donald-trump-housing-race.html
If we can just get the remaining countries to jump on board by the year 2005, we might avoid the worst effects of climate change.
Oh no! What will we do if morbidly obese 70 year-old slobs who are so afraid of cities that they think they need a gun to visit San Francisco start a civil war? How will we ever defeat the sandy vagina brigade that thinks a reality TV host is a big a strong man?
What’s the “Iraq treatment”? The U.S. spending a trillion dollars to create enough instability for something like ISIS to emerge?
It appears the world’s most divorced bozo is at it again.
I’m not super into Biden or anything but The NY Times committing its entire front page and opinion section to one story has really made me cynical about The NY Times.
Right? Who is surprised the openly fascist fascists are fascists? Peter Thiel was a fascist in college. Elon Musk talks about eugenics all the time. It’s not like they’ve kept their political views a secret.
The Republican Party hasn’t had serious policy positions since like 1980. And arguably since 1964 but we don’t talk about how it’s been a John Birch society shitshow for so long, that whole grandparents remember it turning into a conspiracy theory driven shitshow.
I kind of doubt Trump debates Harris. He’s obviously senile and he can just say, “She didn’t win a single primary. I don’t have to debate her.” He’ll probably pull the same shenanigans as in 2020 and get CNN or whoever to have a “town hall” Q&A where everyone in attendance is a Trump supporter.
I get what you’re saying but I like that Lemmy has a left wing bias (with a dash of libertarians). If it was the dominant media site, I’d agree about the echo chamber risk but so much media (in the English speaking world, anyway) is under right wing ownership now. Having a handful of sites that are a refuge from it all is a feature for me, not a bug. It’s an escape from the echo chamber.
