Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Well, where are they, exactly?
Hiding from guillotines.
I think it's time to make an American version of the guillotine where we replace the sharp blade with a giant rock, and keep everything else the same.
It seems appropriate
Given the seeming plummet of intelligence in the US we should name it the Ungabunga. The fact that cavemen didn't live in caves and weren't dumb is the other half of the reason.
People never lived in caves? Excuse me, what?
Maybe they’re conflating the word cavemen with neanderthals.
I mean, archaeologists would argue that both did, there's simply less found evidence of neanderthals doing it, but it is there. Fires, butchered animal bones, clearly intentional burials, art, the only evidence they haven't found is a sign on a nail saying "home sweet home".
Yeah, caves seem pretty awesome to live in honestly. Compared to outside.
Right? Safety, radiant warmth, no wind or rain, no effort to build, it's ridiculous to say that people wouldn't use caves.
That's the common interpretation though. Not in science of course.
The American version is calling up Israel for a bombing run.
Contributing millions to dark pacs, which bankroll media outlets either directly or through ad money.
Although now I’m sure they’re also buying shitcoins in closed door meetings at maralago as well.
