I tried using the official app as I had a relapse - I gave it a serious shot, but it is just soooooo behind the UI in Apollo. It so many little things it gets wrong, but overall It’s just not fun to use…

I think this is the reason I like Voyager so much, it’s beginning to look a lot like Apollo ❤️

Look around, Helen. American politics can’t get much worse, so if it’s a bloodsport they want, it’s a bloodsport they’ll get.

If you think the answer is to be as morally bankrupt as you think your opponent is, you are ignoring your own supposed values.

edit: How very, very convenient that you don’t even live in the US and so you’ll never be directly affected by Mitch McConnell’s actions and have the luxury of finger-wagging at those of us mired in his shit, all the way from the other side of the fucking ocean. How very convenient indeed.

Your are right. But American politics have a way of being everyone’s business and influence a lot of people - people from the EU included. I see this influence on our political system, and it is not pretty. The idea about not playing by any rules is just sad; if you have no compass you are truly lost and don’t really work for anything.

Side note: I am amazed that you think my nationality excludes me from having an opinion on this. It highlights the problem with a community called ‘politics’ on lemmy.****world only about American politics - and apparently only for Americans.

I am not going to reply to everybody. But most of the comments - yours too - underline my point.

For me, politics is about creating something better together. Alienating others in the way that’s being expressed here achieves absolutely nothing. It creates no improvement, only more hatred and division.

One big problem with American politics is the polarization between the individuals who should be collaborating. You too are part of the problem with this approach and almost every comment in this thread is just fuel for the fire for someone else.

Most of the comments here are examples of what’s wrong with American politics. How can you, despite your political views, watch this video and be so spiteful?

I dislike, disapprove and disagree with the man on every level. But I do not enjoy watching this.

Even though I despise the man, this is not enjoyable to watch.

Besides that, it point to a central problem with American politics - the politicians are WAY to old 👴🏻

Doing weird stuff have given him a lot of free media attention- maybe it’s just become a habit and it’s about to backfire? 🤞🏻

You are giving Elon way to much credit - I really doubt that he is playing 4D chess here. But let’s see 😅

Critical-constructive thinking (as described by Wolfgang Klafki <3). Boy would the world be a better place if everyone could think for them self, and not only criticise but also ‘build something’ better.

I find the size quite pleasing. Sure there are more posts and stuff to see, but here it’s possible to actually have a conversation with someone and not have your comment buried in 3k other comments.

But that being said, I would like to see Reddit crash and burn, so business practices like that doesn’t become more common.

And you are right - decentralisation is the future.

New explosion or the pillars giving up?

This was really enlightening. Do you have some articles that elaborate? ☺️

Wow! I’m going to add some of these to my RSS feed. Didn’t know that was possible. Thank you

Best comment - even though I like their brush with the suction cup mere 🤗

I know life is really heard for the North Korean people, but sometimes I wonder; what would happen if the world just collectively decided to ignore the country all together? These launches feels like a toddler screaming for attention - explosive attention, I know, but it works - yet another article about NK.

I undrstand your reasoning. But you can’t ignore that there are a number of standards, not only security-related but also legal and political, that Ukraine must meet in order to be admitted to the defense alliance. It would likely require a series of reform requirements that need to be fulfilled.

Ukraine itself acknowledges that it is not realistic to become a member as long as the Russian invasion continues.

I would say circlejerking. The Bean meme was very Reddit like, but maybe it is necessary to build an online community to have posts like that?

Nature is both scary and amazing at the same time!

Great read! Thank you for sharing. It’s incredible that they trained two parrots to recall some of the 40 words almost 200 years later. 🧠💥
