It's incredibly difficult in a media landscape controlled by capitalists, unfortunately. And there's been very little effective action in creating mainstream alternatives to capitalist news media.

The public's memory is immaterial. The public really has no long term power. Decisions are made for us by politicians and businesses.
They're the one's who need to remember that the US has threatened their positions.
Voting with your wallet doesn't make for sustained, long term change. It requires too much work, and it's umder constant attack by marketing.
And the 338 model now has the CPCs firmly in minority territory, with the Liberals potentially able to maintain power with NDP & Green support.
You the People cannot be trusted to keep fascism at bay.
Of course they can't. The founding mythology? The military fluffing? The pervasive propaganda over American exceptionalism?
It's a fascist country. It just doesn't always have a totalitarian government.
It's probably not cheaper than just shooting orphans for sport.
Totally. Sobeys also hasn't thrown up any plexiglass mazes, at least around here. That was the last time I ever stepped foot in a Lowblaws.
Fuck Loblaws, but don't expect Sobeys to be better at properly labeling Canadian products. The number of Canadian made products, by Canadian owned businesses that don't have the little maple leaf tag next to them is very questionable in its own right. American brands selling the same product types have been getting the label, though, which is highly suspect.
Just assume those little stickers have been paid for at any big chain.
Gotta go further south this time. Warching Mar-a-Lago burn will be fun.
Yeah! We should all be handing out swords in these uncertain times!
Most employers don't truly care about productivity or output. They just care about getting to control other people.
I mean, none of these people ever question Tesla's valuation in the first place. Why is the stock losing all of this value?
Maybe it's because Tesla sells a tiny number of units, cannot turn a profit without government subsidies, and produces by most accounts a really meh fleet of vehicles. There was no sane reason for it to be valued equally to the rest of the auto industry combined.
Even at half that value today, the number is beyond unjustifiable.
Welcome! I think you'll find that the clunkiness dissolves into the background pretty quickly. Peoples' biggest stumbling block after signup is often that you can find communities with the same name on different websites, and that kind of offends some folks' sensibilities. Coming from OGFT, though, I think you can already appreciate that Reddit had multiple communities fighting over names anyway.
The admins here have been absolute power houses, so I know they'll be only too quick to provide any help that you need, or answer questions about the site or nuances about the underlying tech. And some of us regulars have been around here for a few years now, and even predate the site, thanks to the way federated services can communicate across site types (I started on Mastodon, for instance, and have been kicking the tires on nodeBB).
It's a fun little experiment in internet anarchism.
