Jon Stewart examines the choice undecided voters are facing in the 2024 election: Kamala Harris, who has an impressive résumé and specific policy plans, versus Donald Trump, whose vision, consistency on issues, anti-labor ethos, and militaristic posturing are at odds with the caricature his followers have created for him.

    Can you please, please, stop posting the same political content over all fkn communities on this platform. What the actual point of the entire fediverse being one tiny jerk circle?

      Can you please stop posting the same political comments every time? Everyone knows you’ll only post anti democratic comments and your little circle jerk is getting old

      It seems like you don’t quite understand how federated services work.

      Here’s a quick primer on how you can improve your federated internet experience.

      • You can block individual users
        • That will remove posts by them from your feed.
        • All future and historical posts by them will also be removed from your vision.
      • If you feel like a community as a whole is allowing behaviour you disagree with you can block that entire community
        • You also have the option of creating your own space with a similar theme, a space that you can police in exactly the way you prefer. ( for example “Video No Politics” )
      • In the possible case of disliking the content and/or moderation of an entire instance…you guessed it, you can block that also.
        • Creating your own instance is also a possibility, it can be a bit involved but is certainly possible.
        • Then you have all the control, you can invite your friends, success.

      You could also continue to complain about things you can easily fix, that is also an option.

      “Their upvote ratio is too damn high”, is an instant classic btw.

      Given your replies so far you seem to be looking for something a bit less echo-chambery (or as i suspect a chamber where the echoes are more to your liking)

      Luckily this is entirely possible and relatively easily achievable, have fun.

        Yes, lemme block Videos@lemmy.world, Pictures@lemmy.world, Memes@lemmy.world, actually, anything lemme just block @, cuz I don’t see any other way out of this.

        It’s easier to whitelist 3 active communities than selectively block anything. Those would be a german meme community, a europe community, and a world-news community. Everywhere else top upvotes posts are “trump bad”.

        I’ve been blocking US-news infestation in all subs for like a month now. I keep having 10% of my “All” tab filled with “trump bad” posts that have a 100/1 upvote ratio. I already blocked the guy who posted this vid. Before even commenting.

        posted this vid into this community. Let’s see what happens. But, FYI, the video runs exactly like the one posted here.

        I, unfortunately, even think the jokes are pretty funny.

        I understand in both cases it’s quotes takes out of context.
