Thanks for the Italian translation, it was very helpful.

Bene!

The whole lemmy has been essentially about “us vs them” for the last few months. With zero discourse tolerated, only one opinion being allowed: trump bad, republicans fascist.

So, if you worry about polarization, you guys are the biggest echo chamber I’ve seen to date.

And if the other candidate won, the other half would’ve been in the same state of “this is unacceptable”. Solutions?

Cuz lemmy seems to think if their party wins it’s all good and if the other wins it’s the end of the world. While in reality it seems there’s a 50-50 split with each side equally hating the other.

Dafuk are you talking about? Voter turnout is 67% of all eligible voters. It’s highest since it’s ever been. And Trump won the popular vote. At least look at the facts instead of crying “stolen election”.

Trump wins the popular vote and lemmy is still in denial.

“They’re just holes with water”

It’s a rudiment of a society where artificial light was a scarcity, so people worked during the daylight.

But also these days you can easily get a job with a flexible schedule and spend your mornings enjoying the sun, and then work till the late evening.

Lemmy, stop upvoting this BS, you jealous basement dwellers.

Say all you want about unfair pay, but those CEOs work absolutely mad hours and the most insane schedules you can possibly imagine.

Cars, car infrastructure, people preferring to live far out and drive to work – those are choices that can be made individually and collectively in a society-respecting way.

Driving an ICE car is a choice that affects the entire planet. When you do that, you’re doing something immoral no matter what.

Driving electric essentially illuminates the most immoral aspect of the entire driving your car thing. It is a moraly superior choice, and you should feel good about it.

And now that we removed “if we all drive the world will end” from the discussion, we can in a civilized manner discuss and decide how many cars and where do we want.

Oh, sorry, this is lemmy, lemme quickly correct myself: burn every Tesla you see to stick it to the billionaires! Revolution starts today!

Lemmy, open the article. It’s 6k vehicles per year in a continent of half a billion people.

It’s on the rise, as in before it was nobody, and now 0.1% of the farmers bought one. And a 100 lunatics.

It’s still illegal to drive and park in most places due to size, so as a pesky city dweller, I probably still won’t get to see any.

I still do, cuz in the last half a year I probably seen one.

That’s another point lemmy warriors don’t consider. US is getting closer to a civil war no matter which side wins the elections. And, I got some news for you lemmy, you will lose that war and fast.

username checks out

no, half of your country votes for trump. You have absolutely no right to complain about voting not working or calling for violence.

Again, half of your country strongly disagrees with you and you suggest violence? No wonder your democracy is so bleak.

So, what do you do if this guy democratically wins?

What a depressing place to live in!

Dude, you really live in a fucked up place. And I seriously think burning cars isn’t going to help. Your problems go much much deeper.

If you live in a place where police doesn’t obide by the law, you need to rally for serious structural reforms. And for law and order, instead of doing stupid illegal shit and yelling “anarchy! ACAB!”.

Oh, sorry, I’m talking to you like you were an actual stranger. Ofc I know you’re from the default country trying to score regular circle-jerk lemmy points.

I don’t. I want regulations and fines.

But where I live you will get a hefty fine for parking in a bike lane, and after some repeated offenses you’ll be sent for a driver’s re-education with your license being suspended till you’re done. So, I do occasionally see a car being parked in a bike lane. And I don’t wanna burn them. I remember I voted for the right party in the last elections, and that I live in the country where law and order prevail, and that the douche will get what he deserves.

In the meantime drivers around me have the ability to see that my lane is blocked, and I have the ability to signal with my hand that I need to merge. We respectfully resolve me cycling around the parked car and I continue my journey.

It appears to me you live in a place where laws really don’t work, and so you feel desperate enough to justify property damage to those who don’t abide by some laws that you find very important. It’s a very dangerous trope. And it rarely leads to better societies.
