  • It's simple. Consumer watch dogs are bad for exploitive profiteering. Musk is dismantling anyone with any oversight of his companies.

    Edit And the reason given for all of it is fraud and bloat, and no evidence supplied and they'll backtrack on every statement.

  • So you are saying Lemmy can't compete because we don't have enough Nazis? Weird take.

    This fallacy that you can have a wide range of viewpoints anymore is dead, and is parroted by folks that miss the days of yelling at people on the Internet. However, Trump has taken his cult far enough Right they are beyond meaningful discussion/debate. You can't debate things that aren't even based in reality, and when you call them on it they dismiss it as hearsay/honest mistake/do your research.

    For example, the media called Musk on his quote of the US sending $50 million worth of condoms to Gaza. His response was nonsense.

    "Some of the things that I say will be incorrect, and should be corrected. So, nobody’s going to bat a thousand. I mean, any – you know, we will make mistakes, but we’ll act quickly to correct any mistakes.”

  • When you and your "buddies" business model is to make money off the destruction of our institutions, and off people's pain, then everything is going according to plan.

  • But collectively they have the charisma of a wet paper bag, and their father's smarts [hahaha]. I also don't think they could solidify control over the whole cult, and without the cult R's are going to move on.

  • Wipe them on my shirt, and dish soap when required. No microfiber cloth.

  • In which regard? Not enough Nazis? Not enough analytics following you around the net building a profile on you?

  • As long as they get a new RV and unlimited trips I think they would make that trade. They aren't actually there to adjudicate the law, they are there to allow King Don and his gutting of our democracy.

  • True, but this also isn't corporate America that needs to chase users to make the graph go up. New users will come or they won't, I think chasing them is a fool's errand.

  • I would run one if it was worth running, but for me none of them reach the default level let alone exceeds it. But I guess everyone is different, and it's open source so anyone can see all the code and make it look however they want. So I guess we just really need someone that does frontend design and wants to make something better.

    I believe, like I saw mentioned above, that that default theme is also set to change with Lemmy 1.0 release.

  • Same here for 99% of the time, Sync for Lemmy is how I see and prefer this type of site.

  • I am almost certainly not the "normal" user, but the default theme is much better usability wise than the "p" version. The one would have me looking for an alternative UI/app.

  • They see trying to make white people the same as everyone else [because we are] as discrimination.

  • As long as it's working for white people. The second someone white [and hetero] is not above someone checking those boxes they have a HUGE problem with the government.

  • But this guy is in charge of the FCC, is he making the argument that they are breaking some broadcasting regulation by allowing non-white men in the media? If not, then he needs to look to another organization to make that case for him as staffing is not in his organization's purview.

    And I understand what he is trying to do, it's the exact same racist argument they used to have the Supreme Court rollback affirmative action. It's all white supremacist arguments, just no "white genocide" in writing, just implied.

  • Where is his authority to tell a public business it has to do anything about its hiring practices?

    Trump's EO basically just undoes anything positive, it doesn't make anything new.

    The FCC was established by the Communications Act of 1934 and is charged with regulating interstate and international communications by radio, television, wire, satellite and cable.

    How does hiring practice have anything to do with what the FCC has power over? The government has departments for that, but it's not the FCC.

  • The hypocrisy that goes into all their messaging is just wild. 1. Kill capital police you are a political prisoner. 2. Your property gets raided by the FBI while your not even present (because your own lawyers negotiated the date/time) and you fuel the narrative they were trying to assassinate you.

    And not to mention all the judges and clerks and courthouse staff he has put at risk and still somehow gets this "tough on crime pro police" messaging in the media without even an asterisk.

  • “Democracy in America is being destroyed by judicial coup"

    • Elon on Twitter

    Coup definition: "a sudden, violent, and unlawful seizure of power from a government."

    So, a federal judge putting the brakes on your dismantling of our government and its checks and balances is a "coup"? OK, does this mean we took the country back and we don't have to worry about Musk or his VP Don anymore?

    And if there is a judiciary in the US destroying our democracy it's the Supreme Court, but oddly he has no issues with them.

    Edit Spelling is my nemesis, and autocorrect is the enemy of my enemy, but I hate them both.

  • This is the 2nd high profile Democrat, as he pardoned that Gov. the other day. He is normalizing corruption, while painting the punishment as "witch hunts". His administration is also working to roll back all bribery and ethics around people in office.

    Draining the swamp indeed! /s

  • Should also be a visit to a cemetery to get a photo at a soldier's grave, and while there also disparage said soldiers as "suckers". Learn to commit white color crimes, which of course aren't crimes at all if your white/wealthy, and should be called out as "political witch hunts". And the most important item of all, is to learn to "deny everything!".
