lol for real? Just look at the 2016 and 2020 elections. our two party system will never allow for far left politicians to be elected. The DNC will ensure that only those who are beholden to their corporate overlords get on the ballot.

Corporate democrats aren’t going to make the sacrifices needed to stave off the worst of climate change, they have reelections to worry about.
We’d need to roll back so many modern comforts in order to actually make progress in making sure we don’t destroy the planet and no one is lining up to be the boogie man who takes AC away from millions.
I hate to say it, but most people will only care when climate change personally affects them, just like COVID. Until then it’s heads in the sand all around.
Dropped Netflix and got a Plex share with tens of thousands of movies and TV shows. Costs less than their 4K plan for several streams. Now they’re doing the “you can’t login in more than one location” bullshit? Back to sailing the high seas for me and hopefully many others
Indeed. If Wefwef can reach feature parity with Apollo (and I suppose lemmy with reddit lol) it would be an awesome alternative since it is cross platform
I use private trackers for downloading content I want to keep local backups of but I also subscribe to a Plex share, hard to beat their on demand content library!
Yep, I edited all my posts to “fuck spez” on the way out and deleted my account.
I’d much rather spend time building up the conversation over here where we know the users have far more control.
And now they are easily one of the worst predatory tech companies. Go figure.
Apollo refugee here. Wefwef and Lemmy are very nice :)
The biggest problem is that even if far left politicians get elected locally, it’ll be years before they get into positions where can enact the changes we actually need to stave off the worst effects of the climate catastrophe.
By that point it’ll have been too late for a long, long time. We need people who will act now and they don’t exist.
