      The whole time Trump was in office neoliberals had to admit that profit motive was killing us and the planet. Biden took over and they went back to pretending everything was just fine.

      Short term another dose of Trump obviously sucks. While it’s not what neoliberals wanted it’s what they need to learn their lesson.

      Can’t vote for the bad con man. But, it’s not all bad that he’s won.

          it’s the same thing that legacy media and reddit/facebook/etc. does; they help advance the efforts of people who are unaware that they’ve been propagandized and then give them a platform to help them unknowingly help spreading that propaganda.

          this is the best case scenario for .ee and what i believe is happening; the same is true for .world.
