Like I know not everyone is a political commentator and won’t touch politics for fear of ostracizing their audience.

But sometimes seeing most creators not expressing any shock at these unprecedented times makes me think “damn this seems dystopian”.

I imagine what would the world be like if streaming was available during Hitlers rise.

Would people just be living in their bubble of “thanks for watching, hit like and subscribe, and if you use this code on simplisafe you’ll get 20 percent off!” winky face

Idk if I could do it, never talk about it or taking a stand. Its just too big to ignore. At least imo.

What do you guys think? Also lemmy wanted me to add a picture so here’s a picture of my dog.

    For most Americans, their income is their survival.

    Also, I hear all this stuff about everyone but the actual people doing this. Why isn’t anyone holding the Republican politician’s feet to the fire. They’re the only, and I mean only, ones who are able to stop this. They need to step the fuck up.

      The people supporting the Republicans doing this believe the Republicans are doing the right thing.

      You’ll see an occasional post on social media about someone who voted for them but now regret it… but the vast vast majority continue to support them.

      Rich McCormick (R-GA) held a town hall over the weekend, and his constituents definitely tried to hold his feet to the fire. I suspect his peers have learned from his lesson and won’t be holding any constituent outreach until the chaos is safely over.
