@lemmy.worldI really hate that we keep thinking the media is "on our side." The Media is all controlled by billion dollar interests. They run interference to keep the 99% fighting themselves and not the actual threat - the billion dollar interests that control the media and their colleagues. The media is just another tool in class warfare.
The only reason I go to the movies is to have some place to take a date. Other than that, I'd rather watch them at home. The movie industry is changing, it's adapt or perish.
It's why I'm here! Reddit and their IPO can suck it. Started looking for a replacement and found Lemmy. I always think of the Koopa kid, though.
Republicans want to privatize every public work. USPS isn't supposed to turn a profit. It's supposed to be a public good that is sold at cost so we all benefit. It used to be subsidized.
Republicans want to turn it into a new industry a la UPS, FedEx, etc, so it'd cost way more to send a letter. The love of money is the root of all evil. It's also the root of the Republican party.
We continue to allow shitbirds to shit on us. These guys rule the world and instead of turning them into candles we continue to let them darken our world.
As a man, I'm okay with this. Take care of others, first. I have been afforded a myriad of privileges simply because my genitals are external. We could do with less men, honestly. I know a lot of misogynistic assholes and the world would have been better if they'd been aborted or castrated.
As a fellow Kentuckian, I agree with this sentiment. A white Republican probably would have won. I don't think abortion mattered like the news thinks it did.
I do think Democrats are grooming Rocky Adkins to run after Beshear. If Beshear does a good job, Adkins can win as a Democrat. He can pull Eastern Kentucky on his name, plus the cities. So Democrats might keep the governorship for a while and that might help break the gridlock in the state. Just my two cents.
