Because most right wing memes are created by professionals. Left wing memes are genuine grass root creations.

The best grass root memes the right can come with is “let’s go Brandon”, which while catchy is about as meaningful as farting into a microphone.

Some of you haven’t read the Wasp v Weird Al comic event and it shows 😤

That’s the beauty of public transport

No, not everything in that list applies to every industry. The car market isn’t a monopoly, but it definitely has issues with government and regulatory capture (and perhaps others, I’m not expert in auto manufacturing). But even without those issues the nature of car making today gives it a high barrier of entry for new comers.

And as others pointed out, the fact it’s not a monopoly leads to more unpopular ideas being scrapped.

Under capitalism it’s always been the case of"what is this worth to you". The difference is in the past if a company overcharges then a competitor could come along and undercut them (so long as the gap was big enough that it made financial sense).

Unfortunately, monopolies, regulatory/government capture, vertical integration, marketing and cartels have gotten so far out of control that consumers are left with little choice but to suck it up. And most governments in the Anglosphere don’t really care.

The connect app allows you to block instances. Not the same as defeding obviously, but it helps.

True, for me it also depends on how the Burger is constructed. Often the lettuce is put on the bottom, I want to get straight to the meat and not have the taste masked by lettuce. But it depends on the burger.

This is what annoys me, a lot of these replies act like there’s a hidden agenda to everything. Saying things like, “They must support white supremacy! It’s a racist dog whistle! They’re a Trump supporter”. Their assessments never have any nuance whatsoever: if you put that on your car, you’re all of the above.

That’s the whole point of a dog whistle, to hide the true meaning behind innocuous symbols and phrases. And if you’re someone who would be targeted by the hate groups using these dog whistles, it pays to be aware of them.

You’re right, there should be nuance, because there are people who use these symbols without it being a dog whistle. But to dismiss any concerns is dangerous, and exactly what the hate groups want.

That’s why they don’t get fired specifically for that, they just get fired.

Agreed, the main reason I use still use Facebook is that it is home to largest communities for by hobbies. The subreddits for those hobbies were practically graveyards and on lemmy it is no better.

Of course, this doesn’t mean it can’t change, but for some things other communities are better right now.
