Fair, but Trump does have the Proud Boys… LARPing as an elite strike force is the same as battle-hardened legions, right?

I’ve often referred to Trump as Stupid Caesar.

Like Caesar, Trump pushed up against established political norms and found very little pushback. As it turns out, having it be up for debate whether a leader is legally responsible for crimes committed is not a stable foundation for a nation.

The only difference is, Trump did not wait to build up his base not just in the electorate but also among other political figures before pushing as hard as he did. The whole drinking bleach and shining a light to cure Covid probably didn’t help.

Also I’m pretty certain Caesar wasn’t borderline illiterate. If we look up any of Caesar’s speeches recorded by even his most ardent opponents and compare them to Trump’s, there’s a bit of a difference there.

Anyway the point is, both of these men did nothing except expose the flaws in the system, and so long as we do nothing to fix said flaws, is there anything stopping a more competent modern-day Caesar from finishing what Trump started?

Imagine living somewhere where stuffed crust isn’t available. More cheese… yeesssss…

I wonder why I’m fat. Forever to remain a mystery.

Bug report: every comment (and presumably post) is showing as having 1 more upvote than they actually have.

Also, I can’t seem to work out how to tap someone’s name to access their profile. Since this app doesn’t handle links to other Lemmy instances internally (the “here” in your OP opens the browser rather than actually taking me to your post), I wanted to comment on your app’s community by finding it via your profile.

Am I just not hitting the correct pixels? Or are there no profile pages just now?

Also, the community icons are missing from the posts in the feed.

This needs thumbnails on the left as well as marking post read on opening thumbnails, other than that it looks great!

Onboarding looks great and the performance is perhaps the best I’ve ever experienced trying various Lemmy apps.

I swear by this thing, although mine is made by Jordan who appear to have discontinued it. This seems like a good replacement.

This is more environmentally friendly than the disposable ones that come with a toothpick, as you only need to dispose of the tiny horseshoe shape thing when the floss snaps.
