I must have joined the wrong one. You’re right. I can tell by the posts. I assume Lemmy has a “normal” version? Ill find it. Thanks.

Hmmm. Reddit is way more left leaning and it’s is the center or center right people that get banned there. But, oh well.

Our Podunk town is quiet, friendly and doing quite well. We don’t want more people to come here, thanks. You act like that’s a problem. Amazingly, people like open spaces, limited noise, no WalMarts, etc. We even own an acre of land! Wow. Imagine that? But, please do insult us as your kind excels at. There are numerous blue cities that are in serious trouble. But, please ignore it. People and legit businesses are fleeing such places. Criminals are coddled, the police are hated, etc. OK then, enjoy the Wild West. This is what you wanted. Maybe you can personally house a few migrants and homeless dudes? Be part of the solution, right?

Communism is a guaranteed way for everyone to end up miserable. Just take a look through history. It isn’t hard to decipher why it’s unpopular.

Me go back to Reddit? Whoa. Reddit is polluted with left wing crazies. No thanks.

Yes, blue states are cesspools of humanity. San Francisco has been destroyed by your precious left wing politics. Stores are leaving , chaining up products, etc. all because a certain faction of society just can’t figure out how to get it right and live like you’re supposed to. Im not a big fan of pickup trucks myself. Not sure where you got that from. But petrol cars must remain available as the electric wet dream of the greenies isn’t going to work and they know it. How’s the slave labor driven lithium mining going for those precious batteries? Uh oh!

Communism sucks. We all know what it is. Are you really still one of those people trying to sell that turd? Show me where communism has worked… provide a link. LOL.

The wealthy do pay a lot of taxes. How about cutting spending instead? Oh…THAT. Never seems to come up though.

Curious also: are you really going to eat rich people? For dinner? Then what? Keep eating your way down until you reach the middle class? Envy and jealousy are a burden, my friend.

I mean about Covid in general. Turned out to be mostly a sham.

Yeah, no. No one is buying into this crap anymore. We got fleeced once. Not again.

Envy and jealousy will get you nowhere in life. Strive to do better. Maybe join the upper classes through hard work and sacrifice?

Facts. Good luck getting them to do anything about it. Nah, we’ll just stick it to the USA taxpayers and working classes. No more petrol cars, power equipment, gas stoves AC, etc. Oh, and you can’t own a single family home either with an acre of land. Nope. We can build a high rise apartment complex there instead. Anything else?

Climate change…. What a farce.

Now we’re up to $900 per US household for this Ukraine stuff. Let’s throw a few more bucks at it to buy flags. Great use of taxpayer dollars. Sure, Jan.

Punished for what? Throwing money and military support towards everyone when they need it? Oh, that. Right. As always, hating the USA is what the cool kids do these days. Until they need taxpayer money or military support. I’d love to see us cut off every ounce of support we give to other nations and see how that works out.

Wrong - it means too much tax has been collected and it should be returned to the people that earned it. I wish my state would have a surplus instead of massive deficits all the time but thats whet democrats do.

Not at all. The state has a budget surplus and has a very friendly business environment. Those are facts. Also, shooting drug smugglers is the right call. What part of this is the problem?

None at all in my upstate, NY area. We ditched them a long time ago. They are useless anyways. There is no pandemic and really wasn’t one ever. We all got fleeced. Never again.

Can’t disagree about the popular news networks. I actually read a few headlines and articles from several, just to entertain myself. I know that they all have a slant. That being said, this Ukraine thing is getting ridiculous now. A gajillion dollars and counting. Where is it all going? Anyone tracking it? Are we SURE golden boy Biden isn’t involved in some “cheesy” stuff here? His track record certainly supports it. What other nations are chipping in here? Or is it the usual: everyone hates the USA until they need money or military support. Hmmmm.

This Zalensky guy seems like a snake too. How rich is he now?

My end? Did we make some sort of pact? Please. Face it: everyone has their favorite sources for stuff and it’s always based on what they agree with. You’re not above this.

When you stop watching The View, MSNBC & The Rachel Madcow show, Ill consider dumping Fox News. :).

Right, because there isn’t possibly any other motives here or objectives. Like the circus guys said: There’s. Sucker born every minute.

Geesh. Ain’t that the truth?
