They all said they'd leave if he won. I'm waiting for them to do just that.

"NEW YORK WILL BE DESTROYED JUST LIKE PORTLAND!!!!!!!!!!"

Logs into all the public webcams in Portland and sees that everything is fine and, oh my, what a beautiful city.

Buys a plane ticket to Portland just in case the webcams were fake news. Oh yes, oh my, what a beautiful city.

I know it's a tangent, but oregon has one of the best Webcam setups I've ever seen. Tripcheck

Wow. Thank you for sharing!

You should see the racists from my shit hole county. In northeast Pennsylvania. Legit going out of their minds. And saying shit like their 20k a year income could ever afford them a life in NYC. Like sit down Tony. No one cares what you and your 41bmi has to say. Maybe take care of your health before you open your mouth.

Sadly, they aren't all old. The alt-right recruitment drive that's been running for the last decade or so has borne a lot of fruit.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 21 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

Yup.

Starting to think GenZ/Alpha aren't going to save us. Not the men anyway. They're buying into that dogshit hook, line, and sinker.

Young men need mentors and someone to help them un-weave the confusion that media sows. Give them someone who listens, can relate, and sets an example; so they stop running to extremists voices who are more than willing to accept them and talk to (at) them

Listen, teach, be an example for other young men. Nobody should be in this alone and we can't allow young people to slip through the cracks, because someone will be waiting to "help them", for better or worse

[–] phx@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Not just young men. I'm in the 40+ range and Canadian yet still have at least one friend who's getting his info from something like Fox and numerous relatives who seem to have succumbed to the brain-worm since Covid

Millennials are the last generation to not be raised by an algorithm, and also seemingly the only generation that doesn't get more conservative as they age, so I guess it's up to us to save the planet.

Tbf, Gen Z just has a more "doomer" mindset, they don't care anymore, they'd happily vote for a far-right, or even a socialist or a communist. I mean 60% of Americans have a positive view of Socialism. Its not really Gen Z being right wing, they are tired of the current system and is deparate for change, ANY change. So... lets hope they don't choose change into the wrong direction.

I hope what we take most from this is that 2026, 2028 is NOT "too early" or "too high stakes" for an ACTUAL progressive campaign. The DNC has used that argument 3x with Trump and lost said elections twice (only winning 2020 because Trump bombed w/ Covid-19). I'm certain we'll hear it again in the next two national elections.

Having a competent populist leftist politician is not a detraction. Quite the opposite. NO to Gruesome Newsom

[–] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 20 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

If AoC wins the primary I'll vote for her.

If Newsom wins the primary I'll vote for him.

I'll be donating to AoC's campaign though.

[–] Fourth@mander.xyz 3 points 14 hours ago

That's definitely the praxis here.

Republicans are scared shitless that people will get another taste of socialism like they did with the wildly popular FDR..

Every 60 seconds in New York, a minute passes.

New Yokers with beards are just New Yorkers without beards with beards.

Unfortunately, it's not just old or white people. Just look at the young GOP Nazi club or all the latinos that voted for Trump
