maybe my standards are just lower now because I still see idiots cheering trump as he is literally killing them and stealing their money so long as they think he is "owning the libs"

she's talking about mamdani not Trump here
at least she's realized and admits her mistake and changed her voting patterns. a huge portion will never have that self-awareness
Google Sheets. I don't do line item budgeting though. I create my overall plan in Sheets so I know what transfers to set up and that it doesn't exceed my income and I just look at Monarch Money to see how my spending is going. It's $100 a year and a pretty good app.
this goes hard
damn that pastor looks like a literal neanderthal who just melted out of the ice
No. Bible in every backpack, forced morning prayer and flag salute is the law now. rules for thee but not for me
They hate the "system". The system includes our democracy and going out to vote. They don't believe their votes matter so they don't vote, things don't go their way and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
They believe in burning stuff down. Not voting. But even the agitprop kids are a small minority. They're just really loud and destructive.
Honestly they might be better off there.
When you're young you want to rebel against the establishment. They are being told the establishment wants rights for women and gays and men's rights are being taken away. So they are going the opposite direction to be contrarian. Unfortunately young men at that age have very little empathy for anyone else. They have to know what's in it for them.
I don't know about that. there has been a huge slew of foreigners coming in and buying up all their affordable land and housing to make AirBnBs. if that were happening in my area I'd hate foreigners too. especially because most are likely not making any effort to fit in with the community and are just creating wealthy expat enclaves taking advantage of the low yen value.
also if comparing xenophobia have you seen -gestures to the rest of the entire world-
lemmy trends very anti-reddit and in general is very strict about the kinds of views you are allowed to have here. the idea of wanting to go back to reddit is a very big no-no here.
i generally mesh well with about 80% of lemmy ideology but if I ever speak out about that 20% I tend to get downvoted to oblivion
