    No, the things I say, and the things people like me say will change things.

    Yeah? And when is this change gonna happen? Lemmy users aren’t gonna look up from their vid games long enough to make any change happen. They’ll bitch about it on Lemmy. They’ll downvote posts they don’t like. They’ll upvote all talk of a revolution.

    But none of them will do it. There will be no change. Look around. lol

      I am sorry you are surrounded by such cynical people with such paucity of vision, but when I look around I see people everywhere fired up to fight for positive change, people who are existentially fed up with the status quo. I see people that don’t want to have to wait decades for a chance at bringing democracy back and are fighting in every way they can to stop the cruel conservative destruction of society and government happening all over the world, the US included (and chiefly responsible).

      I feel for you, what poor luck to have your vision clouded at a moment full of such hope, since this moment I think we both can agree is also full of such sadness and such loss of hope, I can see why you must feel hopeless.

      Take heart in knowing your perspective is warped!

        Yeah? So where were they when the election as going on?

        I’m having a great time and I love watching what is going on.

          If you are doing great, honestly I am happy for you, but what a despicable thing to say so flippantly right now as so many people are suffering and dying.

            How are they suffering and dying? What makes this different than any other time?

                Yes, I am asking you that question, and what does my name have to do with it. I don’t understand
