Already spreading the stolen election narrative in case he loses.

Mononoke is probably the “best” in my book but my personal favorite will always be Nausicaa. Although I just found out it predates the founding of studio Ghibli by one year.

The narrative keeps being “there’s a significant % of the population that’s attracted to the populist extreme right and we need to appease them” as if that will make them come back into the fold.

We don’t want the nation to go into debt to pay for our tax cuts. We want the poor to go into debt.

Love it. Always good to see an anime where the protagonist isn’t either an insane powerbeast chased by 20 women or a depressing sad sack inexplicably also chased by 20 women.

Typical. You should know it’s not the length of the Furby that matters.

At least it’s email, it’s relatively easy to adjust your DNS and move to a different provider. But it is pretty insane that the US govt is willing to weaponize the country’s leading businesses against its allies.

Before you all kill me, this is just like my unpopular opinion man, but Futurama… The first season, well maybe the first two, were amazing, clever scifi parody but the premise wore thin and it became schmaltzy and unfunny. It became more about the characters and less about the world and it suffered for it.

I mean “should have been dropped” might be a bit strong.

The answer to the question “what if God of War wore high heels and fetish lingerie?”

I dunno but I love it. Let your freak flag fly. Thinking everything is cringe, is cringe.

Just to say this is 100% correct. Do not do this.

That’s fair, I also believe that anyone that disagrees with me on something must be monumentally stupid.

Shh, this is Lemmy, AI bad sir.

Let’s not only go back to increasing reliance on fossil fuels but also increasing reliance on some unstable geopolitical actors. A double whammy.

I don’t think we here in Europe are in the same boat as Canada. Meloni couldn’t wait to get a photo op sitting next to Trump with a huge smile and as far as I can tell it had no negative impact on her image. “Brand America” is certainly damaged in mainstream groups but I don’t see any calls to boycott the US in my country. I saw a bit of it on the news about Germany but that also seems to have disappeared quickly.

Honestly I think “social” media is even worse than the bombs. But yeah, those too.

No, Bernie is not 100% pure and thus must be cast into the pit of despair. We will continue to sit in our ivory tower and judge all. And if that makes us 100% irrelevant then that just shows how pure we are.

I don’t think these letters are aimed at the government. They’re aim is to promote the right-wing elements in these countries, giving them another cudgel to beat the government with. “You see, Americans support us, they want to help us get rid of all the unfair benefits for foreigners”

We care about America out of necessity. America has pushed its tentacles into Europe for the last 90 years. That reliance was carefully crafted by the US.

Some of us have been arguing against reliance on and acceptance of the “American way” all this time, but the idea of a champion of freedom and democracy leading the world was a comforting lie for many (including Americans themselves) and while it lasted it did bring some form of stability.

And just to be clear; Americans may not think about Europe but they barely think about their own country either. I’m not saying European citizens are as informed as they should be but at least 50% of Americans are just so proudly pigignorant of their own history and government that it’s hard for an outsider to understand.

The human race is not ready for the technology we have. Maybe it’s time we bomb ourselves back a couple of millennia and try again.
