- Comment on [Video] Hasan Piker wonders why he is banned from the UK but Elon Musk is not after inciting race-riots in Belfast 3 days ago:
suddenly it’s about them not what they were protesting.
That’s only how it is being framed by his critics and their fans, who still think there’s something in trying to scrutinize the dog collar.
Every case that I have seen of Hasan, be it showing up at rallies, supporting a candidate, or joining the convoy: his presence is welcomed, seen as valuable and benedicial to the protest, politician, or cause.
Only time I can think where his presence was treated as a liability was the 2024 DNC.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 1 week ago:
For every post and comment where China and the United States comes up there’s at least another companion post and comments talking about it. Just like this thread.
There’s about a dozen users who have been arguing with each other for about three years now. Discourse simply cannot be neutral about this dynamic with how they approach the topic.
And just an FYI; Some of the same folks will also crashout if you oppose Zionism, or insult the Epstein class.
- Comment on Why exactly are nursing aids paid so poorly? 1 week ago:
They’re run out of business if they even start. Otherwise it has to be a non-profit, which is reliant on fundraising and outside funding.
Remember the people running these are the landlords. Owners of commercial properties and the only entities with resource rights to able to develop. You know: the same entities that have been capable for generstions, but unwilling, to construct adequate housing.
This is what they build instead.
The daycare analysis is a bit different: that’s mostly just sheer insurance liability. Childcare centers need so much licensing and insurance, so it’s mostly done by backyard operations and church basements.

Take it up with wikipedia and 1960s era political punditry?

‘Young Turks’ has a more generalized use. It’s even got a disambiguation page on wikipedia.
- Comment on Hasan Piker, Cenk Uygur Denied Entry to UK Over Palestine Support 2 weeks ago:
The people that need to actively attack Hasan in this day and age are almost categorically active supporters of this current status quo.
They’re not even just opponents of the left anymore. They’re just present to wreck any civil spaces to cause infighting.

It kinda boils down to chucking rocks in the river alone vs chucking rocks in the river with friends.

The whole ‘run government like a business’ idea usually entails running it into the ground. It’s just a more diplomatic way to express wanting to remove social services from people.

It’s the racism. You can be interested and entertained by it, but many people prefer not to condone it.

Wandering into spaces just to throw hands is usually the basis for most people getting banned or their comments deleted. The content of their commentary is usually notwithstanding at that point.

It’s my best guess as to why it was brought up in the first place.

Hey, they’re just an r-word and Scandinavia enjoyer, with some light bannings attributed to transphobia and nazism. That’s not at all relevant when they’re out here in the wild trying to forge up some horseshoe theory!

4chan’s founder, moot, had some interactions with Epstein from my understanding of the files.

You’ll scare the racist imperialists with that kind of density. One image of Country Joe waggling his fingers is enough as it is!
- Comment on Hexbear is incapable of understanding hypocrisy 4 weeks ago:
Well, you could play it out a bit from there.
If we tie it back to love of China and Uyghurs we could go with “If there’s a Uyghur genocide in China, then there’s also a Black genocide in America!”
Or maybe “How do you pose a country should respond to violent separatism and terrorist attacks?”
But then it all just pivots into Ukraine and Russia. First to accuse the other of serving Putin wins. (Or loses?)
Which then provokes a call to separate genocides into ones using bombs and bullets and ones that aren’t.
Which then circles on back to Palestine and Israel.
For true ouroubos debatelording.

I guess then if the person decided to block OP after replying to OP, they could effectively lock in their statement without rebuttal from the person they block. Seems… odd.
Especially here since it’s between two users from the same instance but in a lemmy community. So there could be something going on with compatibility there?

Reflecting pool between Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument in Washington D.C. in the gal’dang U S of A.
Last month it was drained to be painted with a blue swimming pool liner.
Because that’s what you do when you’re losing another war in Asia.

A lil’ dab’ll do ya.
The nice thing about flower and marijuana in general is that it is/was rarely refined or broken down to concentrations that you see with things like the coca leaf into cocaine.
Even hash was just a plant matter removal more than chemically concentrating like you see with some of those vape serums.
Like, I love me some coffee and tea, but I’m not fucking with any caffeine pills.
But I digress, glad you’re doing well nonetheless.

For the people I was referencing it was more racial association with people from South and Central America being predominantly Catholic.

A remember a congregation out where I live in Yankeestan fastened a crude structure onto their truckbed and they called it their mobile chapel. They’d drive out to agriculture zones and try to preach to migrants against catholicism.
- Comment on Hee Hee Ho Ho Ha Ha 1 month ago:
Sure. Nothing is really stopping anyone from doing that when judging a content creator. If you’re deep into wondering why he’s got so many defenders and attackers online though: he’s political. People get wrapped up in that.
- Comment on Hee Hee Ho Ho Ha Ha 1 month ago:
There’s not a lesser of two evils argument there, so it makes sense it’d be unconvincing.
This is more of a ‘judge him by his enemies’ type thing.
