science@lemmy.world•Most gun owners use lead ammunition, yet half don’t practice hygiene behaviors after shootingEnglish
45·2 days agoSince a few people in the thread seem to think lead ammunition is illegal in the US, it’s not. It’s only illegal for shooting waterfowl nationwide, and entirely banned in the state of California.

4·2 days agoLead ammunition is ONLY illegal statewide in California, and nationwide for waterfowl ONLY. You can still purchase and use lead bird shot for birds other than waterfowl. I can go down to Fleet Farm and get leaded ammo right now no problem.

6·3 days agoYou can 1000% still get lead birdshot and it is 100% legal to use in most states, with the exceptions being for a statewide ban in California, and waterfowl where it is illegal to use nationwide.
Edit: Spelling

You don’t get all the cool stuff without the dystopia. Let’s have some media literacy y’all.

politics @lemmy.world•“Voters are sick of the 2-party system. A new poll shows they’re open to big changes”
1·2 months agoWell I’m here to tell you democrats are right of center at best. There is no party in the US, even the DSA, that would be considered left. Leftism begins at anti capitalism and they all support the status quo. Maybe instead of trying to pull leftists to the center, dems grow a spine and finally work with leftists.
Either we’re too big a voting bloc to ignore that we lose elections for dems because we don’t vote for them, or we’re such a small minority that dems don’t need us to win elections. But too many people, especially dems, like to blame us for when they lose but then refuse to cooperate and blame us that they didn’t win.
This whole “let’s not divide the left vote” is simply another uneducated talking point that does nothing but keep the pendulum swinging.

politics @lemmy.world•GOP Senator Admits Blanche Is Pretty Bad as He Votes to Confirm Him
36·2 months ago“Everybody has this view that they are as pure as the driven snow and it’s the other side that has a problem. I think we both have a problem, folks. If you want to talk about weaponization, take a look at the Biden administration, take a look at the Obama administration,” Tillis said.
“The bottom line is, nobody is clean here, and until we start recognizing this behavior as bad, we’re just going to one-up it. Maybe it’s a little bit more intense in this administration than the last one, and that a little bit more intense the prior administration, and so on and so forth, but folks, we’ve got to end this stuff. We do,” Tillis continued.
“I’m gonna support Mr. Blanche’s nomination, but what I hope I see out of him is a bending of the curve of this absurdity.”
Motherfucker YOU are the absurdity!

politics @lemmy.world•GOP midterm strategy: Make it a "hate election"
1·3 months agoThis will be the Dems strategy in 28 as well. They did the same thing with Biden in 2020 who said “Nothing would fundamentally change…” if elected. Hate wins elections in this country and if you can keep both sides hating each other and win over a few million people every 4 years to your side to hate the other side more, you’re the winner.

politics @lemmy.world•GOP midterm strategy: Make it a "hate election"
1·3 months agoIt’s not like that was a far fetched idea for the Dems for her to message that way and expect it to win, though. I remember Joe Biden saying “Nothing will fundamentally change…” when he ran in 2020 and he managed to get enough people who hate Trump more than they hated a shitty messaging strategy to turn up and hand them the reigns of power only to spectacularly fall on their faces yet again.
I would wager they do the same in 28, provided there is another election, and sadly the American people will eat it up only to elect another milquetoast candidate who will be ousted in 4 years but an authoritarian worse than Trump.
I am American before anyone comes at me saying I don’t know what I’m talking about.

You think democrats and liberals oppose this?
