Thats my friend! He’s really like that all the time and is genuinely compassionate and wholesome in every aspect of his life.

He volunteers on a local community radio show each week called The Pedestrian Show where he advocates for better biking infrastructure in the city. He’s like actually involved in city council meetings and breaks down the proposed development plans on the radio in simple terms so people can understand what’s happening in the city without reading 50 pages of legalese.

Also, he’s really good at ping pong haha.

It doesn’t seem to be what’s happening here, but I’ve seen wooded areas clear cut for large scale solar farms before. That’s completely missing the point of green energy IMO and I can see why some would oppose it.

From reading about PieFed’s moderation tools linked elsewhere in this thread, seems like the solution to that is already built in more explicitly for them.

like this?

Ahh. My miskate, apologies for misunderstanding you!

Edit: and extra apologies for my confrontational tone at your, in retrospect, very benign comment.

Have a great day!

Do you think it’s some kind of gachya that I believe organizing workforces, community activism, and direct action will do more good for people than simply voting once every couple of years? Did I indicate to you at any point that people shouldn’t vote for the less fascist party/candidates? The point is not “Don’t vote”, it’s “Meaningful political change will never come if voting is people’s only method for enacting said change.”

We agree on that. I don’t, however, expect the US democratic party to represent me and my interests. They represent the ruling class just like nearly every major political party around the world. Electoral politics isn’t going to change that.

They don’t have to be “literally the same” for controlled opposition to prevent meaningful change.
