In the era of global fascism, satire is dead. These aren’t bad ideas when you don’t care about anything passed your self image, and no one that matters will stand up to you.

I will have to see if they’re upon max or whatever it’s called now. I no longer have a cable subscription or any way to watch it like that.

They should know by now what a target rich environment for rubes they are. They should, but they don’t. That’s what makes them such good targets.

I haven’t seen any of the episodes in the years. But considering the creator of the show is French. If there ever was going to be one, it would be his lol.

Yep, reliability and popularity. There’s still plenty of space for it. But I think piefed has kind of come in and sucked up all the extra oxygen in the room for the moment.

That and conservatives abhor thinking. They need someone or something to defer to. And LLMs can give them all sorts of moderately intelligent bullshit they’ve come to expect . From their leaders and politicians. But better and faster. With possibly even less accuracy.

Not enough money for big bird. But money to spare for a fascist private jet. Tragic

Something so predictable only a life long Republican would have taken odds against it.

While I would love this personally. I think this is still a bit of a browser support issue Etc. But yes jpeg XL please. Smaller size for similar fidelity as JPEG. Even lossless with transparencies much better sizes than PNG. Though I know there is traction on the PNG side again and they are talking of implementing something other than lzma compression. That’s still the future. Jpeg XL is here and now. Not As tied as webp is to a single company Period and not quite as esoteric as avif is.

Hey if you got any proof of that I’d be willing to see it. I’ve got tons of proof showing he is a weasly dishonest lying manipulator who is out of touch with ethics in general. But you know what they say. Stopped clock right twice a day.

Heh I think that describes most of us on the fediverse and why we are the way we are.

Yep fucking tragic. Though he also isn’t sincere about it. The man holds no significant position other than benefiting himself. As one of his constituents that’s been extremely clear.

LOL as someone with significant autoimmune issues this rings to true.

Absolutely. None of us are immune to propaganda or our own biases.

Fair enough. I can do that as well. Just without all the domain baggage. And if it is something that bothers you. It’s something to look at. Something I saw you actually cop to elsewhere on the topic.

Or Marxism and Marxist-leninist.

Say what you will about Democrats. Outside of the elected ones. Most of them don’t have a strong ideology. Just actually wanting things to improve. But I’m sure of how to go about it. And when you approach them like that. Are plenty likely to be sympathetic and allies.

Yes, Unity cannot be enforced. Unity can only coexist with consent. And those that would violate consent to enforce Unity actually despise both.

Oh God yes Jubilee and that surrounded bs. Though the recent one with Jordan Peterson was somewhat cathartic. Yeah they get some of the most toxic ones.

Yep the majority of them are more like my brother-in-law or my SO. She at least realized back in February the mistake she made. Though I can understand it. As a military daughter who spent her life going from Base to Base as her father moved them around the world. Republican bullshit is sort of ingrained in her family. And she doesn’t actually engage with a lot of the news personally. Instead it gets filtered to her through family.

Brother-in-law came from a privileged bougie family. They own a number of stores in the area. All the fancy tchotchkies as a child. Summers and other regular holidays throughout the year at the lake. Started out from 3rd and thought he made a home run. With a very similar story. Hereditary republicanism. No critical thinking. For One Shining Moment talking about how Democrats and Republicans both suck. On which we could agree. Only to inevitably return back to the Republican talking points. That situation is a whole other shit sandwich unfortunately though.
