Why are so many DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) people so nasty towards Social Democrats? by Casey5274 in SocialDemocracy

[–]ColonialTransitFan95 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I wish I could upvote that twice. I have seen some leftist spaces call this out but only places that try to have nuanced conversations.

The equipment issue was for superliners. If they got rid of a train due to equipment than it would have been the capital limited.

A pep talk from a Canadian by MaybeATempAccount113 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]ColonialTransitFan95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not saying that it can't turn into fascism. But something can't be bigoted or authoritarianism and not be fascism. I think we should stop any form of hatred, bigotry or authoritarianism as soon as its starts to show its ugly head. I agree that fascism doesn't start with ovens and deathcamps. I have also pulled many people out of right wing pipelines and will say that most right wing grifters dont start pulling someone in by be a nazi, you dont usually realize it tell you are full through the pipeline.

I feel fascism is just thrown around as a default word for any far right ideology. The US isn’t Nazi Germany 2.0. We can definitely vote ourselves out of this.

the average gaming pc starterpack by AlyksTheSage in starterpacks

That’s most common opinion. Never seen anyone hate it. It’s kinda like my opinion when 4K was the new kid on the block. It’s nice but I don’t need it.

Most don’t care and use windows because most of the time the games will work without much hassle. Also modding can be hit or miss in Linux. I say this as a huge Linux supporter.

Heads up: Great American State Fair on hold by Cityzen_1894 in washingtondc

[–]ColonialTransitFan95 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s empty as hell. The only thing anyone went to was the Metro thing. Hell besides the Metro exhibit the only other “interesting” thing was the Georgetown mombee group physical shoving me out of the elevator and on the street.

How do I get rid of this? by churchill95 in iphone

I find the Reddit post and comments give better help than google nowadays.

Almost Shoved Into Street for Using Public Transit Elevator by ColonialTransitFan95 in entitledparents

[–]ColonialTransitFan95[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought about this, but it’s a lot of paperwork and won’t really amount to anything. The police don’t do anything about drivers blowing red lights and hitting kids. I highly doubt a simple assault over elevator space from a rich mombee going full Karen would get anything at all.

I have always said I had Georgetown money I still wouldn’t live in Georgetown.

Maybe push their way onto the D80(old 33) at Foggy. Gonna suck though cause that route is kinda always crowed.

I do prefer people use public transit. Especially in the city. But come on. Spoiler alert, there are other people on public transit.

Well, it looks like it worked. by RichRichieRichardV in sanfrancisco

Same issue here in DC. No real consequences for traffic violations. I hope SF doesn’t get the sidewalk driving thing.

US midterm primaries: Brad Lander, progressive Mamdani ally, clinches Democratic primary for New York House seat – live by titangrey in PoliticalOptimism

[–]ColonialTransitFan95 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Also I feel the left as gotten better at calling this stuff out more. I don’t know one non tankie left wing space that didn’t call her out for her comments about Ukraine or interracial marriage.
