You done’ bidened yourself.
Is there a term for a self-cuck?
Yeah pretty much. We’re 2-3 generations deep into a cultural expectation that “some one else” will deal with all these problems.
The constant threat of this being “the most important election of our lives”, when the party making that argument campaigned as if the outcomes were irrelevant (because from their privileged perspective, the outcomes are irrelevant).
Back during covid a boat got turned a bit sideways in a canal and it seemed like the whole world economy was going to collapse. The system we have is actually incredibly fragile and built largely on trust, both in one another but also in institutions and systems. Not only the US, but western Europe is about to get smacked up-side the head by the 2x4 of failing to maintain a civil society (US at fault within its borders, EU at fault beyond its borders).

What I find interesting is the seeming need to replace it with something similar. Why?
Oh yeah. Why? Yeah… yeah I could never imagine leaving one toxic social media and then trying to find a similar replacement…
This is great! Very cool and it worked when I tried it. Is it foss?
I just… I could never comprehend twitter (or Mastadon, or bluesky for that matter).

It was actually a guy named Greg who came first.
This is a bad take.
I. our system, we have people that are singularly responsible for somethings.
Merrick Garland was one of those people.
You “not buying it” changes nothing about the situation.
