piefood@feddit.onlinetoUnited States | News & Politics@lemmy.ml•Will Democrats Learn From the Biden Disaster? Probably Not. | The Democratic Party’s propping up an obviously declining Joe Biden is one of the greatest political disasters in American history.English71·4 days agoI wish this was true. I live in a fairly blue area, and I see them IRL all the time. I’ve been called a “mindless Trump drone” for saying that the Democrats should stop running unpopular candidates and unpopular policies. I’ve been told I was a monster for thinking that the Democrats shouldn’t put up rapists as presidents, and that they shouldn’t bomb children.
While I do think the blue cult is amplified online, I think it is, unfortunately, very real as well.
No, it’s democratic if the voters get to decide. If those in charge get to decide, it’s undemocratic, like the DNC.
Here’s a quick guide on how Democracy works. If you read it first, we can both save time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy
I literally just described is as an unfair primary where the DNC had exert influence to get their candidates to win. If you are going to ignore what I wrote, I’m not going to waste my time with you
The Twilight Zone episode was Shatner, the Twilight Zone movie was Lithgow. Both are great and worth a watch
You mean the same Democrats that refuse to have an actual democratic primary? The ones that openly said in court that they rigged things in favor of their preferred candidates? Yes, they are hurting democracy.
Yes, people ended up voting for Hillary and Biden after the DNC tipped the scales in favor of Biden and Hillary. Maybe the DNC should give him an equal opportunity.
It’s almost like they were, until the Democrats put their fingers on the scale. Weird how that turned out.
Not usually. I don’t typically look too much at the instances I’m interacting on to know if they care about reports or not.

Anyways, the point I’m making is that your experience was just being unlucky with the quality of the professors you got and the style of teaching they favored.
I think the problem is that experience is pretty common (at leat for my experience in the US). I only learned to love math later in life because I started getting interested in physics, and then I realized that math wasn’t rote memorization.
I generally tag people who are being shitty. It’s totally fine if they disagree with me about things, or downvote me or whatever. But if they just insult others, or openly lie/mislead, or yell at others without bringing an actual argument, then they start getting tags. After enough tags, they get blocked.
The good news is, you have no tags! :)
piefood@feddit.onlineto politics @lemmy.world•The Biden Scandal Goes Well Beyond the Aging Cover-UpEnglish5·7 days agoI’ve heard it’s where all of the Reddit exiles signed up. I have no idea if it’s true or not, but it sounds plausible. I remember when people pointed out factually inconvenient things about Biden on Reddit, they’d get downvote-bombed.
Remember when they got mad after Trump said “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn’t lose any voters”? They said it was cult-like behavior by his followers.
But when Biden bombs children, or backs a genocide, it’s somehow not cult-like behavior to keep supporting him.

It’s insane to me that this just now came out
No, I don’t. In fact, their wikipedia page shows activity up to 2022
