  • All 10 of us here stand united on this most exquisite and elevated of horses!

    It’s like, this isn’t really a successful venture, right? We’re not really thriving like we were in the past, are we? We’re likely never going to get anything like that back either, huh

    It’s always the people with 0 post submissions complaining about this. It’s always someone else’s responsibility to create communities and find the content to fill them and it’s never enough. Just imagine how much more active the Lemmy side of the Fediverse would be if everyone submitted one article, meme, video, or podcast, etc. a day in some niche community of their choosing. But hey, I guess shitting on the opportunity we have to start fresh is a lot easier than committing to contribute to the slow but organic growth of another news aggregate.




  • At this point, refusing to fact-check a debate is just a tacit admission that you want to help the GOP. After all, JD Vance is on record saying he has no problem lying and making up things if he thinks it’s politically advantageous. Tim Walz shouldn’t have to cut into his time correcting the lies of an established liar. Why have journalists involved at all? Seems like it’d be cheaper to hire some bozo off the street to read the questions and only enforce time limits on the Democrat. You don’t need Norah O’Donnell and Margaret Brennan to accomplish that.
