Summary

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez urged countering the Trump administration’s policies by resisting at every turn, arguing that its incompetence makes it vulnerable.

Her remarks followed chaos caused by a rescinded executive order that temporarily shut down Medicaid portals nationwide.

She encouraged activists to take offline action, citing ongoing mobilization efforts.

Her strategy focuses on making governance difficult for Trump, calling his administration “dangerous and cruel” but also “shockingly dim.”

    It isn’t chump and his taintsuckers you gotta worry about.

    It’s the army of Federalist Society lawyers and policy experts around him. They’ve spent decades figuring out the removed in the armor of our governmental system. Figuring out how to dismantle it piece by piece.

    Edit - wtf is that removed about? Wait…oh. bot thinks I did a racism.

      Fucken hell, that’s the correct fucking way to define a gap in armor. Bullshit. I really want to try a bunch of slurs out and see what sets it off.

          Jebus. I still haven’t figured out if .ml is government funded or true believers. Very strange to me.

            It’s the home instance of the founders of Lemmy, who are communists. I don’t know their views on authoritarian communism like Stalin or Mao, but people who thought these were good leaders are the “tankies” you may have heard of. There are a lot of them on .ml.

          There was as guy running around with a list of smaller, worthwhile instances.

          I ended up on lemmy.zip more recently after starting on kbin, then moving to .world.

          lemm.ee seems to be gaining popularity.

          sh.itjust.works is also pretty well represented, its users seem normal enough afaik.

          lemmy.dbzer0 is an anarchist instance, their admin is super knowledgeable and seems like a cool guy.

          lemmy.blåhaj.zone is a radically inclusive, safe instance. They’re virulently anti-bigotry and anything perceived as “anti-marginalized” groups will likely be removed/banned.

          There are hundreds of instances, 569 as of writing this. Some are niche and focused on specific hobbies or uses and a bunch of others are general purpose. It’s worth clicking around and sorting a few different ways to find a server you like. Remember you can export your settings and import them into an account on another instances so moving is relatively painless.

        I just signed up with the first one that worked, and it still took a while to actually get it created.
