The Democrats handed him power on a golden platter.
I watched it but mostly to witness the oath and was sickened the whole time. How much of the audience was like me I wonder.
More proof that biden fucked up by running. People don't want this but given the options they'll fuck shit up, I guess.
I actually unplugged the TVs in the gym
Why the fuck were they on that channel?
My local gym had all the tvs near the treadmills set to various political news entertainment stations (fox, CNN, etc.).
I typically sat in front of fox and let the ragebait fuel my running. It's interesting how emotions can make you exercise better.
Man I listened to RATM for my entire run yesterday and I knocked a full minute off my 5k time because it got me so fired up. Definitely related to everything in the news.
Thats the only excuse (maybe) for any TV playing fox news
He didn't say it on which channel it was.
Any channel that gives a platform to a fascist is not a channel that should be on
Probably watched online instead
So the numbers are actually quite a bit lower. All news agencies fluff their numbers, until tax time.
Don't worry, trump will lie about this too
Is that a malnourished child's hand?
I instinctively looked to see if there was a child hand stuck in his teeth.
There's a reason he was called the Short Fingered Vulgarian

We watched just to see if we needed to throw the bug-out bag in the car and go.
Hey just a word of advice, if shit hits the fan unless there is an immediate threat its generally better to stay in place. Even if folks dont know you they may know of ypur car, house, general sounds and what not which will possibly make them more likely to offer aid if needed. Also folks are gonna be a lot more wary of outsiders in times of trouble.
Noted!
Did you throw the bug-out bag in the car and go? You can't leave us hanging like that
Nah, I wouldn't be on Lemmy if we had ;)
Go where?
As a German, I can say that some more left-leaning like-minded friends would be very welcome here.
We're strongly considering West Europe. We have a few contacts there that might alleviate the move. I've been holding out because I don't believe in running from Nazis, and I'm still conflicted about it. I know that any meaningful action I could take would land me in jail forever, or worse, and I don't want my kids to get the boxcars. It might be better for my family to just immigrate.
I'd love to immigrate to South America, but it looks like it's a bit more difficult for us than West Europe, interestingly.
I can understand if you don't want to give up your homeland. I would only leave Germany as an absolute last resort either. Then i would probably try to flee up north to the Scandinavian countries.
But I have to say, looking at the situation in the States, without wanting to sound overly dramatic, there is a good chance to think it's already reached the point of no return and best is to gtfo now. I mean, at least from the outside perspective, it looks really really bad.
Thanks, the outside perspective is useful for breaking out of being the frog in the boiling pot. I'll look into it more seriously.
I don't speak German, can I still come?
Of course! And i think German is not that difficult anyway. Since English is a Germanic language, it's relatively easy for many people who already know it to learn some German.
I'm afraid the main problem would be the housing crisis. e.g. i've been without my own place for over 2 years. Have to sleep on a couch at a relative's small appartement. I basically occupy the living room.
I hope this problem can be solved over the next years. Of course, the right-wingers promise exactly that. And their solution is “get everyone out who is not like us”.

Nice try, fed boy
Anyone else not only not watch, but actively avoided any possibility of even catching a glimpse of it?
I tried. It was the Nazi salute that broke through for me. I just couldn't ignore it... I didn't actually see it until watching the rerun of Monday's Daily Show last night, but I saw the still shots.
I only found out about Nazi Space Karen's antics cuz of the memes.
I would rather smear human shit in my eyes than watch it.
Actually watching it would be the equivalent
I tried, but couldn't avoid seeing a specific two seconds of it...
If I hear his droning groggly voice going off about some fake shit, I usually snap and tell whoever to shut that shit off. It’s unbearable. The guy sounds how I imagine anyone would after a 40+ years of Quarter Pounders and Diet Coke, he’s probably way over his fair share in carbon emissions from his diet alone.
I thought I could tolerate reading quotes of him but it’s a mess every time. Whatever schools he attended failed him greatly.
I feel like I'm being mansplained to by the stupidest man in existence. Which works since apparently Trump's executive order makes me a woman now.
No, it makes you non-binary. We're neither male nor female at conception.

I saw that shit on Disney plus.
Immediately cancelled my sub.
Kids can have Bluey from the warships on the ocean 🦜☠️.
I'd like to support content creators. They work hard, deliver their dream. And early on, a large delivery network is desirable! But if that provider enshitifies beyond my threshold, they are dead to me.
So set sail!
I saw that shit on Disney plus.
What, and I mean this will all my soul, the actual fuck?
I don't give a single wet shit who the president is, why in the chocolate covered fuck is a streaming media content platform pushing that shit? Really glad I never gave them any money, and the subscription we had always a friend's.
They also live streamed the debates, so this isn't unusual for Disney. I think they have some live channels as well, so it probably falls under that portion of the service.
Hulu advertised this today. Like... What the fuck? How much did the oompa loopa pay you, Disney? They know we don't want to watch this.

The fact that it’s streaming on Disney+, while not surprising, is disgusting.
