Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

And out of 300 million people, those are the 2 choices somehow.
Man idk why you're being downvoted.
The situation is not good. Pretending it's fine is what we did V Hillary.
I noticed the debate had the lowest viewership of any debate in history. It makes me wonder how many people out here telling off people who were concerned actually watched the debate.
I'm not saying we need to pull him out. I'm not saying we don't. I'm just saying we need to fucking come together. We need to stop blindly following our nearest internet silos and take stock in the open market of ideas. We need to be less dismissive. Now more than ever.
Can we fucking stop the infighting?
That doesn't work for the ones with the money pulling the strings of the right. So, no. It'd be great but it's not going to happen.
Not with that attitude, it doesn't.
Did you watch the debate? If so, on which platform?
Your point still stands but only like half the population is of age to run for president so really it's like 150 million or less. Still a fuck ton of people.
