Seeing as the politics community only allows links to articles, which I think is stupid horseshit. Let’s talk openly about changes we want to see here. I think the whole “this isn’t the place for politics” is a part of the reason we’re in this shit situation. We’ve let the greedy narcissists take over all discussion while we have no where to reasonably talk about policy.
I’ll start with a couple:
End presidential pardon
Raise federal minimum wage to $15
Federal cannabis legalization (buy/sell/grow)
End daylight savings


I’m imagining an admin bot that can be added to a lemmy channel. Something that manages the instance. You set up rules on who can or cant vote/ how votes should come into existence. Then the bot is in the channel, listening and goes through the operations.
The lemvotes API gives us what we would need to manage most of things. Beyond that, as a social experiment, I think we just put it into the hands of the community and see what happens.
