The title of this video is “An Anarchistic Watches West Wing” or something similar. I only watched 20mins but it was good so far. It’s a criticism of the American Capitalist system, American Democracy (power of the president, presidential hero worship), etc. via the way it’s portrayed in the West Wing.

Thanks, you were the only one to tell me! 07 fellow leftist.

And If you don’t mind, I’d like to take a moment to try to start a new tradition:

Each year on your Fediverse cake day, in response to the first person who wishes you happy cake day, you must tell the story of how you came to be here in the Fediverse. Here is mine:

This is my first Cake Day as I started a year ago when I joined Lemmy.world and Kbin and Mastodon all at the same time. I left from Reddit after the AMA with u/spez. I knew at that point he wasn’t relenting on the third-party apps and the loss of access for me personally, but mostly for the deaf and blind community, showed me that the CEO had no intention of putting accessibility over profit. I was an Apollo user and I was looking for an alternative while also browsing Reddit - using them as a resource, as I always had - and I was seeing censorship abound. Reddit was blocking mentions of alternative sites, blocking discussion about Spez, and the subs were rising up. I used those last few months of Apollo to help with the protests (John Oliver in /pics) and watched the proletariat attack the bourgeoisie for the rights of the people.

Then I started going full fediverse, posting Pokémon Cards on Kbin in a lovely group with three people in which I hope to return to some day when life settles. But Lemmy had the quantity and quality I was looking for. I joined .world at first because I didn’t know what was best, but switched to Midwest.social when .world blocked Hexbear. Went from pc to phone when the apps came out. Went from Memmy to Thunder because Thunder supported Hexbears stickers! And here I am, one year later!

I also got it in 3. 🟥🟧🟩

Beehaw is more lib left. Try hexbear.net

And I try not to be all “I’m not ADHD and I do this” on this com, but it’s true.

Common core math calls that “friendly numbers”.

Warren being better than Biden and Biden (or Warren) being the most left-wing president since FDR are not mutually exclusive.

Warren is left of Biden and, if you’re left-leaning, that is better AND the most left since FDR.

You’re right. Sorry!

There’s not a mechanism for it.

Democrats can name anyone as candidate at the convention in August. Biden being the candidate isn’t official yet.

How can you both be wrong? There are 5 months left.

Can they still change their candidate?

Yes, he is not the “official” candidate until the convention in August.

Anyway this is a perfect example to show why a democracy should have more than two parties.

Unfortunately, the way our voting works, it is nearly impossible for a third-party candidate to be viable.

Sure, but didn’t Biden go on a rant of how pro-Israel he is specifically?

How is it not bait and switch or false advertising? They can charge companies for those actions when they do it to customers, why not to applicants?

I’ve been filling out a lot of job apps that way recently. Not even a confirmation email threat they got my app. Those are probably the fake ones.

They can do it because hold all the cards. Honestly, if our government actually wanted to protect us, they would make this illegal.

I have a couple white ones growing in my yard. I’m going to place the seeds intentionally this year because some grow where they get trampled or knocked over. I started with one and I think I have 5 or 6 now, but only two are blooming already.

Edit: I just realized this is the pics comm, is this oc? The picture is beautiful. I love how intricate the flowers are, and it was captured nicely here.

Which is poor gun handling, but I’m not sure you could get your licence taken away for it.
