That usually happens when people don't want what you're selling.

Conservatives are on a mission to dismantle the US government and replace it with Trump's vision in c/[email protected]

Because it's not really his vision. He's just the anointed one.

I think Trump sped it up, but the same people hiding in their snake holes were working on getting here for years. When Trump goes, they all need to go with him, or they'll just anoint someone else.

How Restarting Student Loan Payments Could Change Millions of Lives — And The Economy in c/[email protected]

Some of us that was our only option. I'm sorry I wanted to go to college. I was also 17 and nobody in my family had ever done anything like college before. I was denied federal loans and didn't know any better. I'm not the OP though and I'm happy for those who can get their loans forgiven. It is what it is for me though. I've been steadily paying the past 15 years.

You all got to stop paying? Sallie Mae dumped a shit ton of late payment fees on me for 6mo I wasn't working over the pandemic and two years later I'm just about back to where I was back then in payments. Shit sucks. Good for you all though if anyone else can at least get out from under this. I'll be paying until I'm 50.

Cornell West is a fraud paid for by the right wing. Please don't fall for his bullshit. I'm glad Sanders sees it.

It's not bad though. Zoom is great. Apparently their leadership sucks, but as a product its always done what I needed it to do without issue.

Aren't Gen Z boys largely voting R? I don't think it works quite like you are suggesting. That presumes the party will just die out, but that's been predicted since like the 1980s and that just hasn't happened.

Lemmy probably feels like Reddit when it first started, all warm cuddly and friendly to newcomers eager to discuss and collaborate around central topics. in c/[email protected]

Yeah it's more or less the same as current Reddit, just a smaller community. Bots and bad actors unfortunately exist in a way they simply didn't 10-15 years ago.

I'd say less so. There wasn't much by way of disinformation campaigns and bots back when Reddit first started so the posts and comments felt more genuine and organic. Even with Kbin/Lemmy being much smaller, there's still a ton of weird shit that gets posted here or comments that feel really suspicious. It would be nice for that kind of environment to make its way back, but it seems those days are over.
