A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

The debt is going to come calling, and I'm sure you'll blame Republicans, and I'm sure they'll blame you.
Perhaps I'll have my place self-sustaining by then, perhaps not. But I'll be sure to keep plenty of popcorn stocked.
The debt will never come calling if calling on the debt means destabilizing the world economy. I'm sure you'd like to see that, but virtually every single player in that debt doesn't.
So take your cryptic misinformation and go hide in a cabin in the woods. Meanwhile, the adults who understand that shit doesn't get done by itself will be picking up the mess that political pacifists like you leave when you cower behind the notion that both sides are the same.
Telling me I'd like to watch it all burn, and then calling me a political pacifist in the next breath? Come on, now, you can do better.
The debt isn't an abstract thing that can be unilaterally printed away. It has real-world consequences, real-world resources that can't be ignored, and that the US isn't even in a position to come out on top of once it comes calling.
I'm glad you're fighting that political fight. It keeps you occupied, and keeps them occupied. Like a pair of dysfunctional lovers, you deserve each other. I'm watching, and I'm learning. I know how to take advantage of the mistakes you make, and ones they make, and use them to my own personal advantage, as well as to the advantage of other moderate folks that I'm perfectly willing to give business preference to, and reach out for, and go the extra mile for.
..just.. ..keep fighting, bud. It'll end soon enough. ..and certainly, you will win. Perhaps not like you think, though.
Wow, I don't think I've seen an edgier comment on the whole of lemmy.
You sound like you've got a lot to lose.
Yeah. You're actively expressing both of those views at the same time by thinking yourself higher than the society you live in.
Anyway, the debt isn't a tangible thing like you seem to think. And you clearly have no idea what you're talking about, and I won't take on the responsibility of teaching you how to use a search engine, so I guess this is where the edgy comment chain ends.
Have fun in your cabin in the woods, brother. The rest of us understand what it means to live in a functional society. It's not worth engaging any further with someone as far gone as you are ✌️
Enjoy your battle.
