That’s sort of what happened last time. Then the people behind the propaganda begun trying to make it global because they realized how easy it was to tell that shit was hitting the fan from the outside. Not sure what will happen this time, it’s not like one can easily tell how many have entrapped themselves in one of their bubbles.

In the future: “Everything they had was repossessed by the jackasses associated to these assholes, but now we have freed them and crowdsourced society into compensating them for the stuff those jackasses enriched themselves with, so it’s all fine now.”

Too latino for him, not enough resources.

You will be enslaved cherishingly.

Will it? What will eventually happen if this gains any sort of popularity is that those people you think it will piss off will simply set up their own “grass roots” alternative the directly competes with them by gaslighting them about their “horrible practices they don’t want you to know”, along with funding “white farmers against bullshit affirmative action racist against whites” types of movements as the cherry on top.

It does, as long as those farmers are giving back and trickling it down, sort to speak. It isn’t the case for everyone, try not to buy from assholes if you can.

Imagine dreaming to fly to space only to be denied having it because you also cared about the rights of indigenous people.

Their claims regarding privacy are really not surprising, it’s very on-brand for the developer’s ideology to eliminate transparency for users in the platform while keeping everything stored and federated in the back end for the ruling elite, which if and when they decide to, become the arbiters of who can and won’t see it. They haven’t even bothered to provide any form of recourse to contest it, you basically have to go looking for people yourself. At least until mod member lists are made private too.

I fully agree with their decision, Lemmy is transient at best. They could still include Mbin, but why include a loaded deck? Actually, decided to check, yep, they did, kudos to them, they really did think it through.

Downvote all you want, still ain’t gonna change that jointhefediverse.net decision (based as fuck) 😂

To some Americans, it is that the US isn’t the pinnacle of democracy but far from it. To others, that the EU isn’t better policy wise than the US, it just has far more competing interests which mean lobbyists have to hand out more than a lump sum of sucking up to people. To some Americans, that your health care system is really shit, to others, that their public health care is increasingly under attack in some EU countries by an industry pouching and locking down medicine through the profits their greed has allowed them to accumulate in countries like the US to such an extent that there are real tradeoffs now to the for-profit alternative.

“It’s not us and the millions of dollars in lobbyists we spend to make sure the health care system is the way it is, it’s the health care system that’s flawed.” The United Healthcare CEO was being investigated. The way they’ve shifted the narrative to say “Hey, we were fighting for you all along, we are the good guys!” is absurd but predictable. Though it took hurting them where it mattered to them - tanking their share price - for them to do it.

In some countries some people prefer to suicide themselves alone in their rooms without warning. In other countries, they prefer to suicide themselves by shooting themselves multiple times in the back and/or throwing themselves off of multiple storey buildings. Who can say? It’s not like countries led by psychopaths who put profit margins above society, including people’s lives, would ever kill people to defend their bottom line.

There’s two barriers to justice in today’s world: The first one is having enough money to hire lawyers. The second one is having enough money to hire bodyguards.

Actually, you didn’t, if we are being pandantic about it. 🙃

This thread appearing on lemmy.world is a case of the pot calling the kettle black.

And we have several pandemic vectors on the rise - again. Well, with one major change, we now have a vaccine denialist in charge of core agencies. Prospects look good for the vulture industries.

Well, depose isn’t actually a type of pat, so I don’t know what you are on about.

You mean basically the same sort of vague threat Trump has thrown around for decades that no one does anything about when it isn’t directed at the rich, just at society in general?

Mitch McConnell was right there behind him, and neither side will see it differently regardless of what that crone says.

Delay, deny, and depose the FBI. The FBI isn’t acting like this during a Trump presidency, this is the most lenient it gets at, during a democratic presidency. With a Trump presidency, Americans should familiarize themselves with current Russian society to know what they should expect for its future. Fuck your messed up police state, Americans, and fuck a constitution that only seems to be propaganda bullshit that is too much for the FBI to live by.

For responding with the catchphrase insurance companies themselves created and live by. This isn’t the suspect’s catchphrase, but apparently even uttering these words back at health insurance companies is too much for them.

Fucking A for some fucking A, this will probably sting them more than the death of their last CEO.
