. 5% in a swing state is not nothing, could very much make the election in a state like Pennsylvania.

I have grown up pretty much my entire life hearing and thinking that protests are the way to bring about change, but everyone conveniently leaves out the fact that you have to build that political movement too.
People want to show up for a protest and be done, many people don’t want to do the work to be an activist and work for change, and honestly I don’t blame them.
Hell I know people who went to BLM protests, Palestine protests and pro choice protests… But don’t vote, so sorry if I seem overly critical of protesting. I’m just sick of prevalent idea that it’s all you need to do.
No, not really. One of the great america propagandizing myths is that protests are effective. They’re not, they can easily be ignored. What does work is organized strikes and planned disruptions of key targets with protests.
In certain forms, or in conjunction with other forms of activism it can still work. For example tree sit ins to prevent logging.
Occupy wall street, BLM, the protests when Row v Wade were overturned all largely accomplished nothing on their own.
It’s still free, just under a different plan named lite https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/plan/lite/
Yeah it’s annoying and shitty, but it’s not so bad.
I browse all, and I just block communities that I find overly negative.
I like using a forest berry jam mix of Raspberries, Blueberries, Blackberries, Cranberries, and Strawberries.
It’s currently my favorite, but when I was a kid I liked strawberry preserves.
They don’t have to. Bikes need their own space, bus can have their own lanes which increases overall efficiency, and train lines obviously need their own space.
Is lemmy really big enough for trolls?
It just seems so, pointless? Not very effective at reaching a lot of people.
Here I’ll make it simple for you.
If you block trans teens from receiving gender affirming care, some of them will commit suicide.
Also 99% of gender affirming care is hormone treatments alone.
While I agree, the nutters out there would have started death threats daily. I don’t blame him for not wanting that treatment.
But maybe congress could be in a position to change that.
Buy a object like a lamp that has 3 prongs and exposed metal. Before you pet your dog touch the lamp. 3 prongs so thats it’s grounded.
Also when you touch your dog for the first time touch him on his body with you whole hand at once, it’ll spread the shock over a larger area and be less painful.
Plex is private though?
No he doesn’t have talking points. He just spouts whatever bs gets him the most attention true or not
