Great explanation thank you!

I’m pretty progressive leaning and just joined .world because I had no idea what lemmy was and was tired of reddit but I thought it didn’t matter what one you joined since you can see all the other instances correct? Or am I wrong here, like if I go to All it shows pose from all instances? Have been curious why I have seen so much far left as in comrade leftist post so I guess that adds up if .world is where they mainly hang out. But again I still don’t completely understand lemmy but I enjoy it more than reddit

We lived in Oregon for a while, fairly recently and boy does the PNW have a very racist past. Back when it was the Oregon territory black people could only work there for a certain amount of years and couldn’t own land. In the 1930’s-1950’s Portland had the largest KKK organization west of the Mississippi. Had to look all this up when I saw a guy wearing a confederate flag sweatshirt at Home Depot and then saw one hanging over a driveway way up in the cascades. Portland used to be a very whites only town, wild how it has shifted. But get outside of any of the larger cities and it is thick trump country.

You also have a good chunk of southern Oregon people who are in favor of the state of Jefferson, look that up if you have time to kill lol

This clip is just a bit chilling to hear them say it out loud and welcome it. I get it they’re Russians but we’re cooked unless something happens between now and inauguration. Only posting the link to reddit because I don’t know which video the clip is from and wasn’t going to sift through Russian pundit videos. I periodically check that subreddit in hopes something does happen because as we all know trump is a Russian asset and they only want the downfall of America. He will divide us all. What we can do though is not let them win and we need to not turn against our own people, no matter how much we disagree on politics because the end result will be much worse.

I’ve been peaking back on Reddit to a few sub reddits, r/somethingiswrong2024 is the main one. There’s r/verify2024 and r/houstonwade as well that have some interesting ideas and points brought up about all this. They simply dismissed this snopes report, stating snopes had lost credibility over the past years but not sure how true that is. I don’t know if I was just getting a contact high from the copium over there, I have hope still, I want to believe there is something in the works but ultimately without concrete, indisputable, outright blatant cheating thoroughly documented, there’s not chance of overturning the election. Especially without stirring up the magats nest and causing civil unrest. So do we just stick it out for the next two years and hope we can freely vote and try to gain some sanity back into this country?

The great deception, ya

Okay because I voted early in person and the only think I signed was the sleeve/ envelope that the ballot went in so I wouldn’t think they could find out

Same here. I have to think tho if they really wanted to could the find out who we voted for or does it just check you that voted and your ballot gets mixed in with everyone else’s?

Great list to start and points me in the right direction. We have two toddler and a new baby who came 10 weeks early so he’s in the nicu. Trying to get things for them as well as us and our two dogs. Good to know, thanks for the info
