If Donald Trump was black, would he have made it this far in politics?
  • This 🔝

    Berlusconi had a similar political appeal. After he exited politics, his party went to the biggest in Italy to insignificant.

    It will be really difficult for someone to pick up the Republican Party and run with the same platform as DJT. Many have tried it (e.g. de santis) but none is able to have the same success.

  • The HOA would like to have a talk about the height of your grass and the color of the planters in front of your house.

  • If lemmy.world became the biggest in the fediverse with a user base that could rival Reddit. Would it become monetized?
  • I assume that 80% of the users are on one or two instances. Maybe the operators of those instances could sell it to a big publishing company, like Condé Nast or something. That way it will be easier to vertically integrate advertisement between traditional print media, online publications, and less formal online gathering places. It’s a win win at the end. The original operators get their bag, and the community keeps going while being supported by a successful business.

  • Here is the salient point on the Wikipedia page that explains why horses don’t produce 1 HP:

    Watt judged that the horse could pull with a force of 180 pounds-force (800 N)

    Basically, Watts made up HP to sell his steam engine to mines and likely made up a number to make the new technology seem better.

    Some things never change.

  • Behind Trump's campaign cash crunch: Small-dollar donor fatigue, major donor hesitation
  • /s

    That’s binenomics for you right there. 4 years ago I was able to donate thousands to Trumps campaign but this year I can only donate tens. My gas and food bills are just too much. That’s why I’m continuing to donate and voting for Trump.

    /s in case it’s not clear.
