To be honest, I'm not that interested in having a back and forth about greentext in a three month old thread (I did not know it was this old when I first commented), so I'll just leave you with this: you should try to assume good faith when commenting here on Beehaw. You kinda gave ErsatzCoalButter's comment the least charitable interpretation it could've been given.

If you don’t like them that is okay, but you shouldn’t spread lies about people or places just because you personally don’t like them.

I think you're coming down too hard on this comment. A healthy skepticism of things that were derived from 4chan is pretty reasonable, given how at least some boards there reveled in bigotry and toxicity to the point where that was what 4chan was primarily known for. So, I kinda do try to avoid greentext communities because I don't view them as benign, either.

You might want to give a member of a minority currently directly targeted by the regime a little grace, yeah?

Yes, what's done is done, and there's not much point in re-litigating the election at this point. Let's not turn this into another neverending argument about Gaza, because I guarantee that's just going to drive a further wedge between all of us.

yeah, this isn't the worst idea. I've largely resigned myself to getting my news from mostly non-american sources during the Stupid Reich.

In a virtual speech at the World Economic Forum, Trump suggested Canada could become a U.S. state to avoid his proposed tariffs on imports.

The remark elicited gasps from the audience.

yeah, so, rich people, perhaps pushing the "they're eating the dawgs" guy so that you can continue to make late stage capitalism even worse was a bit of a mistake. he's sundowning hard and completely off the rails.

yeah, I read the whole thing. I don't recommend that, like holy absolute fuck

Players of Dragon Age II complained that the companion Anders would always flirt with Hawke (male or female), which made it impossible to avoid queer content

oh no, won't someone please think of the bigots? their feelings are getting hurt!

And they won't stop until it turns into Conservapedia. Can't have all those inconvenient facts contradicting the fascist regime or anything. You'll have your firehose of misinformation and you'll like it. Seriously, I could see January 6th becoming a federal holiday down the line. They'll call it Patriot Day or something.

Fortunately, you apparently can download a compressed version of all of Wikipedia for ~25GB.

this isn't just dropping fact-checking. per the article:

Beyond the end of the facet-checking program, Zuckerberg said the company will be eliminating some content policies around hot-button issues including immigration and gender, and refocus the company's automated moderation systems on what he called "high severity violations" and rely on users to report other violations.

Facebook will also be moving its trust and safety and content moderation team from California to Texas.

This is full bore capitulation to fascism, as capital will always do. soon, zuckerberg's social media sites will be indistinguishable from musk's x. everybody needs to defederate from threads if they haven't already.

being nice is what our oligarchs want you to use to discredit people.

You do realize you're posting in a Beehaw community, right? We do expect you to be(e) nice when engaging with people here. DdCno1 is trying to engage in good faith(and, honestly, getting very understandably frustrated). If you don't want to educate them, that's perfectly fine and valid. If that's the case, then this conversation isn't really going anywhere at this point and it'd be best if you disengaged and moved on.

I have never understood why some men will send unsolicited dick pics to girls they've barely even started talking to. Like, to me, anyway, it's just sending the message "hey, I'm only talking to you because of this". Not to mention just how creepy and invasive unwanted genital pics must be(I can't speak from experience here, I'm a transbian in a committed relationship who hasn't been out all that long).

When I was pretending to be a guy, I was hanging out with a group after watching a movie, and a friend of a friend was sending a dick pic to a girl he had just met. I asked him why, and he looked kinda confused and told me that girls want to see it. The other dudes there looked at me like I had an extra eye or something. fuck me for seeing things from the girl's point of view. we didn't really hang out after that

Seems to be a joke poking fun at the other post. I'm not bothered by this, but if people start making a bunch of these, I'll ask them to stop.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) introduced a bill this week to legally erase transgender people, entitled the “Defining Male and Female Act of 2024.” He claimed that the bill will stop what he called the Biden administration’s attempt to “replace biological sex with dangerous radical gender ideology.”

The bill is a long list of terms and definitions, where words like “father” and “girl” are defined with the words “male” and “female.” Those two words are then defined as “an individual who naturally has, had, will have, or would have, but for a congenital anomaly or intentional or unintentional disruption, the reproductive system that at some point produces, transports and utilizes [sperm or eggs for male or female, respectively] for fertilization.”

 

so much for "free speech". it'd be almost impossible to find someone with thinner skin than The Donald.

 

per Decision Desk, it looks like trump won. I'm starting to see a few outlets like NBC call Pennsylvania for trump, too.

as a trans woman, i'm fucking terrified.

yeah, if you voted for trump this election, after everything over the last ~9 years, you're fucking evil. straight up evil. lots of people, worldwide, are going to suffer because of this as the world falls deeper under the influence of fascism. take care of yourself, take care of your loved ones, form communities, and be prepared to fight for your lives. we're going to need each other if we're going to to make it through this

 

“I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people. Radical left lunatics,” Trump said told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo in an interview on “Sunday Morning Futures.”

“I think it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard, or if really necessary, by the military, because they can’t let that happen,” he added.

 

We all knew that Jill Stein was running as a spoiler, but to have someone on her team openly admit that? They're openly aiding and abetting the rise of fascism in the U.S.

It's not like they couldn't put a stop to blackouts before, as seen with the third-party app fiasco, but Reddit has now made that tactic entirely impossible. Mods will now need to get permission from Reddit admins before they can make a sub private. Makes me wonder if they're about to do something controversial again soon.
