Especially when all of the Christians think that the band is Satanic lmao

That’s so stupid it’s hilarious. That’s the kind of lyric I would write if I was making fun of Christian music.

The white genocide claim is something that Elon Musk and Donald Trump have been promoting. He even asked the president of South Africa about it when he came to the White House, and he told Trump it wasn’t a thing, but of course Trump didn’t believe him. In fact, he’s offering amnesty to white African immigrants as refugees (something which is denied if you have different color of skin).

Yeah, I agree with you, but Democrat “right-lite” (or whatever you want to call them) are still getting their shots.

Last time I checked, most Democrats are pro-vaccine and very pro-capitalist.

Afaik it’s not permanent.

Okay, don’t search for the word “binary”. Search for the word “they”.
Yes, really.

I kinda wish that they had pointed it out, but they didn’t.
- Comment on Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages 1 month ago:
What’s the stunt? All they did was use they/them pronouns when talking about their mascot. People made the inference from there and ran with it, and y’all are too lazy to do a web search and read the announcement.

This would make life harder for me since I have this installed on my system.
- Comment on Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages 1 month ago:
It’s a terrible PR move if you don’t say anything about it. They didn’t say “Hey, look! Our mascot is non-binary!” All they did was use they/them pronouns.
- Comment on Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages 1 month ago:
It isn’t, though. They never said that the mascot was non-binary.
- Comment on Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages 1 month ago:
Well, if I was creating a mascot, and I didn’t want to think about their gender orientation… they/them pronouns are what I would use. Mozilla actually didn’t announce the mascot’s gender. People just saw they/them pronouns and made the inference from there.

I think everything labeled “plant butter” is vegan, whereas “margarine” can contain both plant and animal fats. I don’t think that’s regulated, but I think that’s how those terms are used in practice. I always check the labels just to be sure, of course.

From what I understand, it’s observing, not ignoring. I suppose you could look at it as ignoring, because you aren’t really listening to it, but you also aren’t supposed to force it to be quiet, either. You’re just giving it space and not allowing it to interrupt your meditation.

Naw, you bought into an urban myth. Why would prisoners put up with such an inconvenience just to signal homosexuality? Especially when you already had signals used outside of prison like having an earring in the right ear, that system of handkerchiefs they used in the '70s, and so forth. It would be like signaling your sexual preference by walking around with your shoelaces untied.
Children in poor families often inherit clothing from siblings when they grow out of them. That pair of pants was too small on your brother, but it’s still too big on you. What was originally an inconvenience becomes fashionable because everybody in your neighborhood was doing it. This is so common that it’s caught on and now people are doing it on purpose.
Something similar happened with soul food. Enslaved people were given food that used to be thrown away. They found a way to make it taste good, and it became a cultural marker.

Thankfully I saw this before the deletion, so I can still call you out for having the reading comprehension of… well, an average Lemmy user tbh
Ooh, yeah, lookit you, you got me. Why do you think I deleted it?

I’d like to hear more about #3 and #4. They seem to be a software company. Of course, that doesn’t mean that they can’t also be an advertising company (see Google).
