Ladies, gentlemen, and others, this is what we call a "pump and dump". Anyone that understands the markets at even a high level could see this coming from a mile away. A bunch of rich people just made a fuck load of money today.

Hey, if you think it's that easy, just stop them yourself. You sound like you're full of balls, so just do it.
We are now waiting for your useless fucking "country" to try to annex us...
So your doing EXACTLY what you're blaming US citizens if doing, which is doing nothing and wait until the bad thing happens.
You can piss and moan that someone should have stood up and stopped all of this from happening, but assassinating the richest man in the World and the (leading up to the election) former POTUS and leading candidate for the Republican party that had secret service security, isn't just something that anyone can pull off. You could be the champion of the the world if you yourself make the sacrifice you think someone else should have made, so buck up chief, let's see what you got.
How DARE you have hope for the future? Disgusting.
You have to get older, but you don't have to grow up. Do the fun shit in life that hurts nobody. This place hasn't been so that great over the last decade, so you got to find joys in this life.
I'm mid thirties and when the opportunity presents itself, I'll look a fool for my own and other's entertainment. Have a laugh, enjoy yourself, don't negatively affect others with your fun, and don't worry about what other people think of you.
Not shilling for Dyson, but I've had two over the past 10 years, and we only sold the first one because we wanted to get some money for it before it maybe stopped working, and we bought a new one on Black Friday. Nothing ever broke, maintenance is easy, the ball really is easy to steer, and they are effective. My only gripe is that with our carpet pile, the suction is too much and I had to modify a little to make it run better. I don't know if it's a design flaw, because my carpet isn't that thick, but I was able to find forum posts with people having the same issue. It could also just be a, we got the wrong model, situation.
My next vacuum, hopefully years down the road, will be a Miele. I just need to start setting cash to the side to it hurts less when I need to do it.
Are you asking if the stricter EU laws around social media in the EU could affect how something like lemmy.world could exist there vs the US?
This is the Arrested Development banana scene.
It's one banana, how much could it cost, $10?
Did people cross the line for Bernie or did people show up for Bernie?
I just think the dem party is poison right now, with very little to suggest that that will change any time soon.
I think as long as it's the "Democratic" party, in name only, these people won't cross the line. Maybe if a far left party were to emerge and the Democratic party was more publicly viewed as the conservative party they are, some people might switch. That I think would unfortunately benefit the Republican party shirt term unless that new party gained traction extremely quickly.
I hope that you're right. I have a hard time believing that a large chunk of these people will change their political alignment because their current ruler and his ilk insult them. If we make the assumption that elections continue relatively normal in 3.5 years and Trump hasn't found a way onto the ticket, I think these people will vote for the next Republican candidate because even though they've been burned, the next guy is different, but he still hates the browns, so they'll continue shooting themselves and everyone else in the foot.
I think best case with the insult victims is they don't vote out of apathy, because I don't think many of them will ever vote for a Democrat.
Obviously he knows that they weren't paid, he's just saying it because the word will spread and his idiot followers will eat that up, because they're fucking morons.
For anyone that thinks he might be telling the truth, who do they think are paying these thousands of people, and how much? To get random people to mobilize, I'm guessing it would take an average of $50-100 per person to make it worth their time. That's a lot of money for one protest let alone all of them.
It takes 2 seconds of critical thinking to understand that he's either blow smoke or he's so dumb that he thinks it's true.
Every. Single. One.
