If an influencer reads an Associated Press article, is that social media?

I'd always narrate what I was building with legos.

There is also the Whig party for reference. They were one of the two parties until they refused to take a meaningful stance on slavery. They were the 'bipartisanship states rights solves it' party versus the 'pro-slavery' party.

There is no longer a Whig party and the slavery party went to war over a decade or so after the anti slavery parry formed.

So there's that alternative to Party switch.

Damned turtles refuting conventional knowledge of space and time.

Only northern hemispheres exist.

Good thing we tackled that polio issue.

You have no idea the effect your words have on a globally accessible service.

The size and reach of Lemmy is nothing like what you are supposing here.

Mainstream media dominates the political discussion amongst the electorate. Viewing Lemmy comments as anything close to being electorally influential or as mainstream is going to leave you with some warped perspectives I think.

Imagine having 3 not lead to 1.

They already banned a swathe of pro-palestinian political streamers in the run up to the US election, so this is likely retroactive reasoning.

Sounds like there was a wave of bannings too, judging by the comments.

There will be plenty of topics to come that will provide similar outlets considering what is pending.

I always thought it'd be interesting if one senator were elected only by the most populous municipality in each state.

She was never anywhere close to the left to abandon it, but there is a fairly loose definition of what constitutes 'the left', especially in online spaces.

What she did represent was a chance to be a change, but solidified in reinforcing the status quo, which has been resoundingly unpopular.

The Cheney roadshow and advertising the border policy drafted by hyperconservatives didn't help. Sidelining Walz didn't either, especially since he was the stronger message on proven policy.

But really it was the most unsurprising course of action the Democratic Party could've taken, so I can't say that bait and switch sentiment should be felt by anyone else but newcomers to American politics.
