Thanks. I’ve been looking for some good alternatives. Already use midwest.social for politics

So 2 reasons for this:

1. He consistently tries to normalize corruption.

2. He craves people’s attention, because of his narcisstic personality disorder.

Make Corruption Great Again

He is a terrible manager.

I still can’t get over how Musk told computer programmers to print out hardcopies of all their source changes, and then fly to Musk’s city to show him the hardcopy. That alone proves Musk is the dumbest CEO of all time.

I don’t know why the Danish PM would waste his time even talking to Traitorapist Trump. The whole world knows Trump is a notorious liar.

[Trump said he wouldn’t feel any responsibility if harm befell the former government officials. ]

I am not going to feel any responsibility or concern if harm befells Traitorapist Trump.

Non Americans think the same thing Americans do. That Traitorapist Trump is a narcisstic buffoon not worth your attention. That he is a notorious Liar who is going to lie 30000+ times in the next 4 years like his average last time. And that he is going to throw food on the wall at the White House an average of 1-2 times per week like his average last time.

Scary part is that the protests within America were not covered, or were barely mentioned.

You can NOT rely on the media to cover the important stuff, or to tell you what is important. This is because (1) the billion owned media wants you do be apathetic so they can get gigantic GOP tax cuts for the rich, and (2) the average journalist does not have any special skill set in letting them know what is important, and (3) journalists and editors are lazy and only cover what other outlets are covering.

You have to work extra hard to understand reality, and things like Lemmy help with that.

Who is? Do you have video of the Israeli PM saying that? Or are you talking about an angry family member of a Hamas kidnap victim? You are acting like this is all one sided and nobody else is to blame.

You know that Egypt could have allowed refuge camps to provide safe zones right but didn’t do that right?

You know that Hamas could have ended it at any time by freeing the kidnap victims right? You know that they started the whole war right?

how the hell does bombing hospitals in Gaza defend Israel

Thats not the purpose of the US sending aid to Israel. Can you prove the exact weapons used were provided by the US? Bombing hospitals does sound like something you should never do, but I think Israel would say certain ones were used as Hamas command centers.

I counter by saying I consider sending billions in support of genocide counts as full-throated support for genocide.

(1) War is not genocide. Genocide is genocide. Although It true that the Israeli PM seems to have dragged out the conflict way too long. Should have taken a few months tops to take over the entire region and establish safe zones.

(2) The US sending aid is not “full throated support for genocide”. You can say that, but no normal person thinks that and most are silently rolling their eyes. Biden in fact did send at least one ultimatum to Israel threatening to cut off aid if they continued doing X.

But hey, maybe I’m wrong and it actually is misinformation to say it’s full-throated support of genocide to send billions in weapons to a country using those weapons to commit genocide. Please let me know what you think!

It’s borderline. The exact point where hyperbole rises to the level of outright misinformation is a grey area. You don’t know whether any specific weapons sent were used in the war at all, let alone used in any alleged intentional killings. And even isolated intentional killings would not be “genocide”, they would be war crimes. Israel has a terrible PM right now but I don’t think the Israeli leaders would be stupid enough to have some secret goal of exterminating all Gazans. Most US military aid is things like anti-missile defense.

I know plenty of genuinely amazing coders who have no idea how an operating system

Such a person cannot be an “amazing coder”.

A huge barrier for some is picking the instance and figuring which community they should follow.

Figuring out which communities on which servers to subscribe to is way more important than figuring out which server to post from.

I literally had never even heard of Misskey and Peertube lol. I have a hard time thinking too mostly unknowns are bigger than Lemmy.

I personally have seen much worse overmoderation than undermoderation.

I can’t even look at the guy because I might see his diaper.

My rule is that I will always change the channel whenever Traitorapist Trump is speaking on TV. I can read a summary later, but mainly to get the tally of lies for that day.

In his last term Traitorapist Trump told 30800 lies. Which is 20-25 lies per day every day.

Trump literally thinks that dishonesty is a virtue. Another 30000+ lies are coming your way.

Jenny, what is your area code?

I have a washer-dryer with an “AI mode” lol.

here should really be more pushback on them rebranding LLMs as AI.

Those would be AI though wouldn’t they?

The pushback I would like to see is the rush of companies to rebrand ordinary computer programs as “AI”.
