It's a good thing Democrat leaders like Joe and Pelosi have made sure to voice their support for the existence of a "strong Republican Party." It is definitely good to keep them around to do helpful things like this rather than try to stamp them out.
They are shutting down the government to stop money to Ukraine, so in this one particular example it just happens to be kind of good they can do this. Most of the time it isn't.
It really says a lot that the democrats care more about feeding conscripts to artillery than keeping WIC afloat. The CR without the Ukraine aid would have prevented a lot of suffering.
How to spot a lemmy.ml user
Yay, instance based phrenology. Exactly what we needed to recapture that miasmatic feeling I was missing from Reddit.
Church it up however you like Wesley, I call it like I see it.
Do you mind explaining how you see it? What’s the Wesley reference?
Something I’ve noticed is that any instance that doesn’t mandate a tightly enforced line can be quite diverse, for better and worse. .ml basically enforces the line of “don’t be a bigot” which is good, hence my account here. I know very little of .zip, do you/y’all take exception to the lemmy creators having a no slurs rule or something? Is that the generally leftist (by American standards) user base? What’s the issue?
The issue is that you morons come in and say troll shit and then wait two days and then try to make it into a serious conversation like you weren't just being a fucking cunt to begin with goodbye
