I faced that for an extended time after graduating with a Bachelor's. There were so many jobs asking for impossible experience, or jobs vaguely related to my field at exploitative pay that required a Bachelor's. I did manage to find a decent job (still shit pay) but only because of a connection.

For my college, tuition would not be impossible with an ok job. When I read the headline I read it more as younger people seeing college as a scamthat can't even get you a job after the ordeal of all the schoolwork and money lost.

Despite free speech supposedly legally allowing protests and demonstrations there is still a real risk of being imprisoned.

My point is even "free speech" is not total free speech in the United States for example. There are still compromises in free speech so we may preserve order. Allowing free speech to that extent lets these movements flourish.

No, fuck off with your take. That is free speech taken to a literal extreme. Allowing free speech to this extent encourages fascist and Nazi movements to flourish. Nazis should feel uncomfortable or unable to express these views.

Go ahead and wait for the U.S. to implement a viable system. I'd bet it'll be longer than our lifetimes before that even happens. And that's ignoring what is probably the desire of keeping the status duo of a broken two party system like this.

I can't tell you how much faith I've lost in the average person in America, especially compared to how... ok, I guess, the last election went and how tight, or possibly over this one is.

I can't fathom how fucking stupid anyone would have to be to elect this orange piece of shit that has been upping the dangerous rhetoric constantly. America is broken and it isn't worth fixing, especially not for the morons that somehow get him elected again. I just hope that I can get to a point in my career that I can move elsewhere, maybe Ireland or New Zealand or something, fuck.

So no head?

I'm not sure how never having learned about 86 as I've worked makes me dumb. Besides that, I thought Lemmy wasn't gonna take off? You can delete your account any time you want. You don't make it easy on yourself by acting like a baby.

As someone who's worked a few fast food jobs, no, I'd have no fucking clue what is meant by that. Piss and cry in your edit all you want.

Federation really isn't hard to understand especially when you dive in and start using it. I don't understand anyone who says otherwise.

Somehow this sentiment exists in the selfhosted subreddit and is why the community didn't move to Lemmy. One of the last places I'd expect to let something kinda technical scare them tbh.

Por que no los dos? They'd definitely use this capability to do both.

No. I'm not clueless or surprised. Just disappointed that we're stooping to using AI bots to sow discord like Russia is doing.
