I mean, am I misunderstanding the word and misapplying it? Or are all self-proclaimed modern liberals incorrect in thinking they are a liberal? What would be the better terminology? Progressives?

I can’t think of a single modern day liberal that would…but alright.

I mean if you went out and interviewed a “liberal” I’d bet money that they would be against the prison Industrial complex and against rampant unregulated capitalism.

I mean. Heck, if you have a terminal illness I don’t see the downsides really.

Hey, I was you about 6 months ago. Same views, and then I was called a dirty imperialist just because I wasn’t left enough. Like, these ML people are out for blood. They want a revolution and it’s acceptable if people have to die to achieve it.

Gummies are incredibly easy to make. I just made a batch 2 days ago that are sitting in my counter drying before I put a powdered sugar on the outside of them and stick them in the freezer. I use moulds so that I know EXACTLY how much I’m dosing. And the best part? I’m not destroying my lungs by any means.

Hey, so the 15 million thing isn’t true. That was the number before all of the votes came in. She actually gained votes in battleground states, but lost them in non-battleground states (states that didn’t really matter). Just a heads up. We need to be using facts here (not trying to attack, just trying to get that information out).

Yeah. It’s photoshopped. Good catch mate.

It most certainly should not.

Aaaaaaaaaaaand that’s exactly why the opening scene of Juon: Black Ghost/White Ghost made me scream like a child. The dread that rises up when something doesn’t feel right. There’s no build up to a scare…it just slams into you full force. Only movie I ever screamed while watching. Only happened once…but good God. We had to pause the movie and laugh for about 10 minutes as both me and my sibling both screamed.

Hey! It’s me! The CIA!

I used to do a shit ton of yardwork on edibles. Made it so much more chill.

… Always has been.

No, but thank you though.

Yeah, sorta.

• 311 is a shit show. You have to pretty much get involved with your local government officials to get literally anything done, otherwise you can just live with your pothole.
• City officials have had a hard on for a minor league baseball stadium for fucking YEARS. They asked Richmond citizens for their vote on it, and every single time people said fuck no. It’s $110 million that could have been used to repair crumbling infrastructure, provide support programs, add additional affordable housing, repair our busted streets…noooo, why do that when we can go to a fucking minor league baseball game. Good idea Stoney. It’s getting built by 2026. That’ll for sure bring in money Stoney. Wonder what sort of kick back he’s getting as he’s only been pushing it for like 5 years.
• City officials also hard a hard on for a casino to bring in additional “needed money” that they planned to throw in absolutely terrible locations. No one wanted it. I think we had to vote it down like half a dozen times. Petersburg, a crumbling ruin struggling town is now voting to add it. Just what it needs.
• Look up the history of Jackson Ward.
• Shcokoe Bottome still has buildings were destroyed in the flood back 30 years ago that have yet to be revitalized (but a fucking stadium is fine, right?)

Thats just off the top of my head. Love it here though. Just…lots of annoyances.

I’m sorry, but is that an ominous clown looking down from the Heavens?

You fix it pretty easily by just getting the lenses entirely replaced. If you have vision insurance, you can do it entirely for free

Weird can be good…sometimes, depending on the context.

Just realized the lemmy.ml is entirely leftist. ML apparent stands for Marxist-Lenonist.

Time to block a second entire instance. fml.

I get what you’re saying, it’s capitalism vs socialism, not Democracy vs socialism, however my issue is that they don’t even like our Democracy. I got banned for even supporting it.

They were slamming how terrible our liberal politicians were, so I made a few comments about it and I got banned for defending them. It’s frustrating…but whatever…

Leftist admins when you say anything remotely supportive of Democracy instead of circlejerking the leftist next to you.
