The hope that enough people are aghast at what happened and stop supporting him leading to shithead Republicans doing their job (only for the purpose of saving their own cowardly hides) and dumping him. This doesn’t assume it is standalone- combine rampant pedophilia with a terrible economy. Whatever it takes for the awful, awful people who prop up the Republican party to finally say enough.

Whether that happens…

Yeah sure. Im trusting Google with privacy. Eye roll

Go peddle the apologism elsewhere. Besides that, give Google time convincing people like you manifest 3 is fine before they make it even worse so you can’t block ads. Imagine trusting an AD COMPANY to make the internet better.

Head firmly in the sand.

Quite aware of all that and you conveniently sidestepped the issue with Google doing the bulk of that work and dictating the future of the web. It’s the new ie6 which was never a good thing.

If you can’t see that then there’s zero reason to discuss further.

This is just Google and Vivaldi apologism.

Yes… Very much so.

Why do you think it’s so well supported by web standards? Because Google can *make * the web standards when everyone uses their engine. And they don’t do it for good.

So yes, every chrome variant does help Google.

Yeah that’s why the George Floyd protests were so small.

Fuck off with your racist bullshit.

I mean… I take issue with the tax code being that personally. Idgaf if your company loses money or not- you pay taxes. It’s not the problem of society to make sure your company can write off a bad year. If you fail, you fail. American taxpayers shouldn’t be footing the bill for failing businesses or creative businesses.

I’m not saying they can’t be better.

I’m saying people should vote as a civic duty and maybe shouldn’t be complete jackasses who sit at home and let fascism win. Two things can be true at once.

Really lot of stupid takes on here but congrats, this has to rank towards the top.

Outsider but I remember people being unhappy with the Ampel coalition. I can’t imagine anyone is preferring this really though are they?

I haven’t seen any polling numbers lately though compared.

Easier to destroy things overall. That and the American people gave all the power to Republicans knowing they’d be complicit every step of the way. Not really working out.

Imagine being so daft that you aren’t voting as a civic duty, let alone against fascism.

By not doing that you ensure that more drastic measures HAVE to be taken later on. Great job non voters.

Somehow a less than perfect opponent deserves the same amount of vitriol and discussion as outright fascists.

Imagine thinking it’s that black and white. And Lemmy is swarming with those dumbass takes.

I don’t know how you do that. I can’t edit the standard DDG on desktop at all. Didn’t see anything at first glance in about:config either.

Easier to me to just add a new engine.

Maybe all those bitching actually go vote in the primaries? Turnout is always absurdly low.

Turns out that’s even easier than protesting and doing general strikes so why not give it a try?

Simply put, it’s not as easy to build transit or pedestrian infrastructure as roads. That’s it, at least in the USA. There’s an endless money machine for road maintenance and widening and anything car related and there isn’t at all the same for anything else.

So the public transport barely exists anyway and even if you give them a park and ride they won’t use it because public transit sucks and is far less enticing even if bike lanes nuke car lanes.

To add on, the morons do this to areas that don’t even connect other bike lanes. There’s no reason to use it if it doesn’t connect to anything.

Quite frankly Im just happy to read something laying blame at Republicans for once. Why they always get a pass for being the shitstains they are is beyond me.

Yeah I suppose it is worth focusing on the Democrats when all this is clearly due to tacit Republican support every step of the way.

No that’s honestly what a lot of Lemmy people think.

Lot of respect for him. One of the few to call it out, with courage, and in a very unfriendly space.

Tbf, most of us don’t really count ourselves as Ohioans. Cincinnati really stands apart from the state.
