"world news"

Idk I don't exactly find Lemmy a bastion of my interests. It's very clear the community is far smaller. The niche communities of topics im interested are mostly nonexistent and it's largely a sea of memes and references I don't remotely understand or care to. Something about communists or some shit? What? Pass.

Cancel culture is ruining America!

Also

Cancel bud light, barbie, NFL, Nascar, public libraries,....

By "rock Trump world" I think they meant make absolutely no difference to anyone wrapped in right wing propoganda blankets. Tuning in last night it was about how the left is "grasping at straws" going after the poor "janitor"

Anti-Isreal =/= antisemitic.

Israel's current actions are that of mass murder and punishment of otherwise innocent humans to the degree that can and should be considered genocide. I find it disgusting - that doesn't mean I think "The Jews" are to blame. Followers of the Jewish faith and Isrealies are not the same. Putting an Anti-Isreal banner up at a college is absolutely not an anti-semetic attack. The lines are being fair too blurred currently and there should be more distinction.

"Though the commission has the power to set the policy, it can’t enforce it."

...Cool

Yeah and here I thought it was because the positive story and amusing likeable characters.

I think the issue is republican leaders intentionally causing harm to migrant children for their own joy and political gain. They moved them to areas like new york with the goal of overburdening and breaking the system.

It's be the equivalent of me buying 100,000 AR-15 and air dropping them onto a bus full of children; have a republican say wow these guns are a problem and respond, "oh so noooooow guns are a problem CHECKMATE"

Regardless, decades of actively fucking the people, land, and economies of south American countries have indeed caused a humanitarian crisis leading to migrants fleeing for safety and hope. Neither party seems to have much interest in proactively sorting it out. Reap what you sow.

My thoughts exactly. Did I miss the start?

This is for sure the final nail, it's going to collapse just like Facebook and Google did after all that ad stuff. Profiting off a user data is clearly a failed business model and we see that time and time again.

This is still a thing? I thought they crushed it like 10 years ago

Nightly news broadcasts. It certainly was never overwhelmingly factually butat point it was widely regarded as being so and was not so clearly partisan.

They should be required to list lowest possible pay rate.

Stuff like this makes me want to live in Michigan. It doesn't outweigh all the reasons I don't want to live there, but it's a start.

Randomly relocating migrants to other cities with zero communication or planning with pure intention of causing harm to the migrants as well as the people of the arrival city for political gain is indeed a bad thing to do. I must remind people that cruelty and harm is the point of Republican policies. There was no thought that New York has resources so clearly this is a good choice of the health of either the city or the migrant to send buses there; else it would be planned and communicated ahead of time.

Let's use Texas for example. There are big cities in Texas if you weren't aware: Dallas, Houston, Austin - odd that there was no thought of sending migrants to those cities with all their city resources. There are also large other cities between Texas and New York: Oklahoma City, Kansas City, Indianapolis, Charleston, Pittsburgh, etc - it's almost like right wing propoganda incessantly targets New York as a city of Democrats and we must punish them. Cruelty is the point. There is no functional purpose of sending migrants to New York other than cruelty and chaos for political gain.

What's shocking is 100% opposition by Republicans

Idk if shocking is the term I'd use here. Maybe something like, "completely expected lack of ethics from the republican party after decades of consistent actions"

I have the same occasional issue with forgetting words after a TBI, and have worked with people in recover who have it much worse than I. It's an interesting outcome when simple words just cannot be recalled. To fabricate an example; I know what this object is, a tool for writing, it's in my hand, it has ink, but what the hell is it called. (a pen) - it can be for the most mundane and common words.

However; I don't go slackjaw and become completely nonresponsive for 10-20 seconds. This guy needs to be in medical care.

That was my first though.

breaking news: impossibly wealthy people vote for tax cuts and reduction in social services

Ah man this company is being a real cunt and for that reason we should reduce wages.

... What? What is the goal?
