Self-labeled no less!

They do it so the current president can ask them questions on stuff that would benefit from their knowledge. But Trump would clearly never do that, so this is pretty irrelevant.

This sub is run by a single person who frequently breaks its own rules and who censored you on a self post. It’s not really a general progressive sub so much as Boomer’s personal playground.

But it’s Lemmy, we should just make an alternative community.

At what point was US “control” even attempted for you to reach that conclusion.

Good on the AFP for being willing to put the critical context in the headline instead of just trying to present bland data.

And remember one of their defining features is incompetence. These aren’t technical masterminds, they’re relying on the people they purge to dutifully help set things up for them on the way out. The Musk Youth aren’t in that job because they’re peak performance wunderkinds, they’re there because they’re the right mix of impressionable and sycophantic. No one hires a 19 year old for an important job if they have other options.

FYI, “the Ukraine” was the label Russians (and Risk) used for the region. It’s just Ukraine now.

Wow, so I guess they’re really gonna try.

It’s a matter of numbers. The bosses always pretend they’ll just fire people for defiance, but if whole teams strike they don’t really have a way to pull that off without grievously harming their business. (And while the NCAA is itself a nonprofit, it definitely has business interests.)

It’s not fair, but solidarity and social resistance is going to involve good people taking risks when they could have just gone along instead. That’s the whole meaning of the ‘First they came for’ poem.

Feels like the turnaround on this means they were just itching to do it.

Ahhh, the world once again makes sense. Though while I’m not sure I’ve seen much from HuffPo in a while, I thought it was still filling the role of liberal normie news/blogging/discussion site. Seems like kind of a hard ship to turn right without just destroying it.

You literally entered a comment thread to reply to a post where that was the only question and now you’re confused it’s being asked?

Wait… One of these things is not like the others.

They had to make sure to have quality kneepads… You know why.

Oh, I do know why! You really made fun of them good by implying they do gay stuff.

“Back when you were a teenager” implies some time has passed and you might have grown. Leniency in judgement could also be applied if you’re still a teenager, but then you also shouldn’t be in charge of anything important because we know you don’t think too good. Also, consequences for their actions is how teenagers learn to not keep doing that. Firing racist teenagers for being racist is good.

Also also, this guy is in his mid 20s.

That’s not an answer to why you hold regular people to account for their actions but not the politicians and strategists actually running the campaign.

Also it wasn’t “manipulation”. The genocide actually happened.

The stupid shit was also said only three months ago.

Also never marry outside your race!

Democrats are already going conservative on trans rights and immigration. You at once condemn other minority populations for refusing to accept the Democrats going more conservative while declaring your own personal red lines.

Your final declaration sounds like good principle, but if that were true we were already in the “not everyone has rights” category. It just sounds like you have the core rights that you feel that would be too far and then don’t allow other members of the coalition to have and value their own personal core rights.

Hey, what’s the most famous example of game theory, and what’s the correct move to play if your fellow prisoner is saying they’ll betray you? How would you rate the strategy of the player announcing they’ll betray?

You trot out the term like you’ve unlocked some higher level enlightened objectivity that the unwashed (minority immigrant) masses have failed to comprehend, but then fail to actually apply even the most well known thought exercise. It’s not a synonym for rational thinking or having good foresight. It’s about how multiple actors make choices. For some reason your “game theory” philosophy seems to not consider the candidate as a participant.
