The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

The trick is to pick the lesser of the two evils.
50 years of that has produced an evil so large we don't even recognize evil any longer.
And not voting will solve that how exactly?
Doesnt hurt, doesnt help. Voting is more an illusion of participation, complete with an "I Voted" participation trophy.
Inaction is worse than picking the lesser of two evils.
My inaction isnt getting Palestinians killed, my inaction hasnt caused the highest spike in homelessness ever seen, my inaction isnt causing a rise in suicides, my inaction isnt causing stagnant wages. If allowing the deaths of brown people is seen as the lesser evil then there is a serious problem with the mental health and empathy of Americans. If the tables were turned and Trump was currently in the WH, liberals would be calling out all the injustices they are currently turning a blind eye to. But the lesser evil they accept year after year, decade after decade, has grown so enormous they can no longer see evil for what it is. They have become the evil they claimed they were voting against
Yes it has.
I have not attributed to the harm being created by the donor class. People that support and defend the donor class have.
What liberals do you see that aren't making a fuss right now? Are you under a rock?
Making a fuss then electing the same rightwing pieces of shit that got us into this situation and dont represent us isnt progress, its surrender
And guess what you complaining here and then your inaction does, and symbolizes? Pretty much this.
My action takes place in my community and those within my circles of influence.
