Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I'm in VA. For a bit it seems like we would be a future blue state. Now we have a porn ban and Marijuana legalization, which was passed by democrats, has been effectively stalled. Possession is legal, and you can grow a small amount for personal use, but our republican governor blocked the creation of a legal market.

Republicans can get fucked. I hope that this obvious not listening to their constituents costs them in the future, but I'm really not sure. People need to vote, and not just for president.

It won't, they don't stand for anything outside of "Libs Mad" so as long as "Libs Mad", they'll keep voting
