A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

How many people were there compared to the population of the US? Dude, it was less that 2 percent of the entire U.S. population. 2 percent! lol That means that 98 percent of the population had nothing to do with that protest.

I bet not even the majority of Lemmy showed up for those protests! lolololol

What was accomplished? What changed? What policies changed? Everyone in power then, is in power now.

Nothing changed. That's not to say I'm against protests; I think protesting is awesome. But to think that everyone is on board with Lemmy's ideas is maximum cope. Lemmy is full of people that are too extreme and too nerdy for reddit. Think about that. lol

Hope your day gets better, tho. We can agree to disagree. All is good!
