Bad bot. OP is a newbie asking an honest question, and for that they get booted by a bot?
It would make sense to notify a human mod when a post is drowning in downvotes like this one, but it's a mistake to trust the bot to hand out suspensions.
He's never made a mistake in his life, never broken a law, never lost money unless someone else was a crook, never been outsmarted because he's the smartest human ever, never touched a woman who didn't want his touch because he's the sexiest man alive, and never lost an election unless it was stolen from him.
How could he lose an election, when no-one anywhere would vote against him, because he's Donald Trump.
Climate change is largely America's fault, so Kerry's statement seems asinine to me, and quickly erases the already low levels of respect I've had for him.
It's also shit journalism — the article doesn't say what McDonald's posted this sign or enacted this policy. Maybe some McDonald's did, but when there's no attempt at sniffing out a who - what - where - why - when, it's piffle.
Any schmoe anywhere could've made the sign using Microsoft Paint.
The article is a laugh, but it isn't news until someone says where it happened..
I loved Reddit, spent at least an hour a day there and often much more, but I'm loving the Lemmy too. In many ways it's better, and one of those ways is that it's so much smaller — a much higher ratio of thought vs tired memes and dumb jokes and slick burns.
That's the punchline that makes me chuckle when I read how "little impact" the protests and migration have had.
Here's a little secret: Reddit mods can't know for sure which accounts are bots. They can suspect, but they're no easy, reliable proof. Reddit admins, though, know exactly which accounts are bots — they just prefer keeping that info to themselves.
Google tells me BofA's net worth is around $228-billion, so these fines and refunds add up to about 1/10th of 1% of the company's value.
What does the bank get for that money? No charges against anyone involved in at least tens of thousands of felonies, which seem quite similar to many thousands of earlier felonies nobody at the bank was charged with, in 2014 and 2022.
If I committed tens of thousands of felonies, repeatedly, could I get BofA's deal? I'm worth about $5,000, including my life savings and everything I own, so I'd have to pay a $5 fine.

I've been here a month after 15 years at the other place, and it's an improvement.
Sorry you got clusterbombed, though. You asked a fair question, something I wondered too when I first got here.
