Fear… At the bottom of it is always fear

Kinda seems like crime spiked during the pandemic, and now it’s actually just getting back to normal.

That bad apple has long since ruined the bunch

Probably selling them to our corrupt government… So we can all be left holding the bag

Huh, I wonder if any of those refugees they keep murdering might have been able to do some work?

I get the sentiment… But what we want is justice… Rape can never be justice… And jokes about raping someone just make you look… gross.

Remember… THEY are the monsters… Not us

People who sell bullets and bombs really want this

Okay, I get this… Hell I FEEL this, even though I only scroll through Lemmy. But let’s say I do want to stay informed, but don’t want it to just be info about the bad stuff: does anyone know of a good source that aggregates all the good stuff people are doing? Like what’s the squad up to? Who’s fighting to take back power from the corporations? Who’s fighting and winning? Who’s inventing ways to stop climate change? That kind of stuff… Not so much the cutsie “I have a crush on my husband” stuff

This is kinda how I feel when liberals keep arguing for Biden. What I hear them saying is “Vote for Biden because at least he’s only making THEIR life miserable… Trump will make MY life miserable! (And I might actually have to start caring!)”

It sucks that people only care about the world’s misery when they are personally threatened, but since that seems to be the way it is, maybe letting Trump make everyone miserable will speed things along a bit/get more people to wake up and fight back?

(Mostly playing devil’s advocate here… I do think we should be trying to stop Trump… Just wish the DNC was trying too)

10-15% of household in the US are “housing insecure”… There’s 127m households… So about 15 million housing insecure families. I think we should go with that. You’re probably right that the 600k is street homeless. Many people are “homeless sheltered” meaning they can couch surf, or the state is putting them in a motel, or whatever.

Oh good… There’s a list… Let’s make sure we get that list for the revolution

Mental health crisis clinician: dementia is not considered a “mental health” issue

Also, we can’t force people to get help just because they are acting wildly “crazy”… Even if it’s clearly psychosis, mania, etc. Even if the cops are getting called everyday because the person keeps trashing stores or harassing people. (And, in my state, the cops aren’t allowed to arrest them either, BECAUSE the behavior is due to mental illness).

There’s some serious issues with our mental health system in the US.

And instead of fighting the rich who are causing all of that, they’re dumb and blame immigrants… Like they’re told to… By the rich

Yes, this is why… But of course the article doesn’t mention that… Which is shocking coming from a media conglomerate owned by a nepo rich white guy /s

Not sure I’ve ever heard Dawkins say religious people shouldn’t be allowed to get married or have kids… Let alone imprisoned or stoned to death

Booooo

Because they’ll be extinct soon? :-(

This is the internet… You might have to throw a /s after your comments, even if it’s obvious

It sucks that we live in a world where it’s impossible to tell if this is real, complete nonsense, or a false flag operation.

Also a vassal state of the US
