reminded me of r/Gamingcirclejerk

literally the same fucking mods (or close enough) that run gcj run our games comm, what a clown. @Rose@lemmy.zip every joke on gcj besides the others from your fellow hapless libs went over your head, and you should be ashamed for that.

Goosen the golfer is now speaking, he says South Africa needs the United States as an ally for help, mentioning how the US helped the apartheid government in the war in Angola.

I had the displeasure of meeting a different SA golf pro's tour bus driver, who only referred to Tiger Woods as 'that removed' (my slur filter, not the site's). So yeah Goosen definitely dog-whistling here. Least racist SA golf pro.

Remember when the American left completely failed to achieve any concession on healthcare during Covid because they were so afraid of being seen as touting right wing conspiracy theories? Same principles here.

To achieve concessions you need power, and the American left doesn't have any of that. Both electorally and amongst the masses. We had a historical rebellion at that same time and barely got concessions from those (and in many cases the reactionaries got further concessions).

If your analysis of those failures starts with some posts you saw on twitter (and there's plenty of contrary evidence of the 'left' organizing, albeit ineffectively, around health care), you're missing the forest for the trees.

I can't speak for the others but I take it about as serious as I take the 'podcast era', which is not at all

infotainment doesn't foment class consciousness, organizing does. simple as
