FrictionFiction@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•People whose parents have become fascist, how are you dealing with it?17·8 days agothank you, that means a lot. But don’t give up hope. There’s lots of nations in Western Europe that have programs that allow for immigration and permanent residency. There’s also programs to immigrate to Canada, depending on what type of work you’re in. And if all else fails, There’s good lives to be lived in South America and Central America. You’re not trapped. It may take you five or 10 years, but you can do it. Don’t let the empire crush you in its gears.
FrictionFiction@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•People whose parents have become fascist, how are you dealing with it?421·8 days agoMan, I feel you buddy. I really feel for you. My parents are middle of the road Democrats. They think they’re leftists but in reality they’re just Mitt Romney Bill Clinton types. and although they are not fascists, they are certain that positive change is just around the corner, none of this is too bad, the pendulum will swing back fully in the other direction in just a couple of years, just you wait.
They don’t seem to recognize that the pendulum has been dismantled and that the people in charge don’t give a shit on both sides. they get viscerally, angry, and upset when I try to point out to them that best case scenario America will take a generation to fix. And it’ll only get fixed if it’s filled with decent people, governed by decent people. And we all know that is not the case. So in reality, America will probably not get fixed in my lifetime. Maybe in my kids lifetime. My parents cannot understand that concept they think the good times are just around the corner.
I keep them at arms length I let them engage with my children and beyond that, it’s how’s the weather.
But I’ve also decided that because I don’t feel America can be fixed In a timeline, I find a reasonable as a relates to the raising of my children. I am leaving America.
i’ve already begun the process and my family and I will be moving near other family in a different country. Maybe my children will come back to these shores but aside from a few funerals I don’t think I’ll be back here.
good luck, buddy. We all need it.

Why the hell would they ever fucking do that when they can just hire one person and work them 10 times as hard for five days a week and leave the rest of us unemployed. It makes zero economic sense. AI is not here to solvethe world‘s problems. It’s here to solve the wage problems and it is well on its way.

FrictionFiction@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Red Dead Redemption 2 was amazing.English4·2 months agoit’s the best game I ever played. I waited years to play it and I played it two years ago, on pc. Amazing. Outrageously good. when I finished playing it, I deleted it off my computer and I set up a block on Reddit before I left Reddit permanently, so that I don’t see any mention of it. I just wanted to forget that I never played it and forget the story so that I could have that feeling of playing it for first time. I think in a year maybe two I’ll be ready to play it again. I can’t wait to forget more about it, so I can experience it again.
