I think your premise is flawed tbh and lemmy is still beta. Every lemmy server has the potential to be its own community. I don’t actually care much about the federation, vegantheoryclub.org is its own thing with its own users we’re small but we have a matrix chat and a discord too. With the new version we’re probably going to turn off the votes. Hexbear existed longer as a stand alone site than it did with federation and has one of the most active communities. So really big picture is that lemmy is the software that can bring back the distributed forums of all and federation is just a side benefit.

Who cares about mods and mod powers, seriously. If you don’t like a community, launch your own server and pay it forward you can run it however you want and attract your own users.

Your belief in lies and propaganda and participation in a system that keeps you doing nothing while you are raped by the wealthy is affecting the rest of the world. Also the bombs you pay for to drop on my family. Maybe you should stand up and do something besides nothing for once in your life, voting this far has gotten the US a fascist country run by the wealthy which is exactly how it was started. I feel bad for you how deeply you fell for lies and stories for children.

Because it doesn’t work. It will never work. There is no amount of voting in America will change the fact that it is and always has been ruled by the rich elites who maintain an socioeconomic system that prevents change.

Before you reply to me directly please understand:

1. The US overthrew democracy in the country I am from
2. The US installed a fascist king with secret police that terrorized my family
3. Once kicked out the US supported a dictator in the neighboring country where the other half of my family lived
4. The US funded both sides of a war between my country and the neighboring one that led to mass civilian deaths, one side directly by giving a dictator weapons and cash and the other side clandestinely thru laundering money by selling drugs in Latin America
5. Once they lost that war turned on the dictator in the neighboring country and invented reasons to illegally invade. Twice
6. Toppled the regime and left a power vacuum that consumed all my family that lived there for literally hundreds of years.
7. Created material conditions in the country my family is from that forced them to leave or die

You Americans are not the good guys, your country and government is evil to its core.

It is almost like you didn’t understand the meme, can’t read, then wrote the absolute dumbest comment in the thread, congratulations moron.

But they did make it worse, their policies led directly to where the US is now.

The economic system in the US guarantees fascism, the rules are made up and votes are don’t matter.

I didn’t vote because I’m not American. They should revolt that is the only answer.

You didn’t have a choice, the economic system in the US concentrates power in the hand of people with money and they are fascists. If it wasn’t 2024 it would be 2028 after 4 years of congressional stalling. The path the US is on is predetermined, they don’t have to fix every election to the vote, they fix a percentage of them over the course of decades to push the policy to the right.

What I learned from the memes I posted is that liberals just want a single party state

LOL I’m thinking the same thing, I looked at it logged on out .ml and its chock full of fantasy thinking

Dear Liberals,

1. I am so glad I can’t see the bullshit from lemmy.world on my server

2. Your economic system guarantees fascism. You can’t vote your way out of it. Capitalist modes of production inevitably concentrate power and lead to fascism. It is unavoidable.

You live in an alternate reality

The consequences seem to have been the democrats have swung further to the right than Ronald Regan and every leftist doesn’t even get a chance to run in that party and the same democratic party sues and uses legal maneuvering to remove all other parties like from the ballots.

Did you already forget how they literally cheated Bernie Sanders out of the primaries?

Edit: Or what about that primary they had after Joe Biden stepped down? Oh right

You literally do not know what capitalism is. Capitalism is not commerce or economy, capitalism is a social relation system that is defined by private ownership of the means of production and prioritizes commodity production for profit by way of wage labor and class antagonism. Maybe you should read more before you state your factually incorrect statements.

❌❌❌

Capitalist economic systems will inevitably lead to oligarchy

I must confess to have stealing this meme from elsewhere and didn’t even notice that lol

I know Americans all are

No

I’m not sure I follow, I just like this scene from Inglorious bastards when they bash in the Nazis head
