  • You mean an organization that seems to primary exist as an opposition to those so-called "adults" meddling in the middle east? A lot of their other broad geopolitical strategies, like funding the Taliban, also has been a great success in the region. I'm sure they will do so much good for the region and won't do more to empower terrorist groups like Hamas for their own personal gain.

  • The SMW kaizo community has several prominent trans contributors and notable members (Shoujo and shovda being probably two of the more public ones, both participating in the relay race at SGDQ 2022, which also had at least two trans creators). I'd include Maddy among the notable member, but that's a relatively recent thing with her release of Super Sonic Saves the World World and Sure Shot (a level of which was in the SGDQ race and was co-created with another amazing member of the community). Unfortunately it wasn't always that way apparently (the SGDQ 2019 relay race did include someone who was later shunned by the community for platforming transphobes apparently).

    Also, the kaizo community and Celeste community have a lot of overlap given they're both tough platforming games for lots of community-made content.

    Its also just small enough that everyone can know most other people who are part of it.

  • Celeste speedruns are fairly competitive from my understanding. I have not watched the top players, but in general the Celeste community seems pretty good from the little indirect interactions I've had with them. But it's solo play and leader boards, not real-time matches (although those probably exist too, but you still don't interact with the other players).

    Curious if that direct combativeness is part of difference. Of course another important difference is the Celeste community is fairly unique given its trans game status. But I don't think that's necessary to build a good community: smw kaizo isn't inherently trans, but the community decided years ago that it wasn't going to tolerate transphobia, for example. But its extremely non-competitive imo.

  • What percent of facebook users would document their content and report their removal to HRW? 1000 reporting to HRW because their comments got removed from facebook seems funny. I certainly wouldn't think to report technology@lemmy.world's mods to a human rights organization if they removed this comment or banned me for posting something pro-palestine on another community.

  • Some 3rd parties have ran ineligible candidates. If they actually won, the electors wouldn't actually cast their votes for them, but the votes are counted and tallied AFAIK. Given these are parties that make the Green Party and Libertarian parties look like first parties, they've just been ignored.
    For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%B3gerCalero

    Notably, Colorado is one of the states that wouldn't let Calero on the ballot because he was ineligible.

  • Courts enforcing plain laws is gamesmanship?

    If the RNC decides to unilaterally change their candidate to Haley or DeSantis or another candidate just because Trump is removed from a swing state ballot, I feel like Trump won't admit defeat and his supporters will just write him in or just not vote. His supporters are already distrustful of organizations like Fox. Winning any elections ever would become much more difficult for a long time.

  • Should we start allowing people under the legal age and non-citizens run for president without first amending the constitution to allow that as well?

    If people want to change that outcome, then they should tell their representatives (the Constitution says Trump needs 2/3rds vote by both houses of Congress to be allowed to run for office in the US now) or amend the constitution. Its simply following the election laws that was accepted by the elected officials.

  • But it's not. There is no question: it's explicitly laid out in the Constitution. Amending the Constitution is a political question. Or just abandoning the Constitution is an option. And of course the Constitution gives Congress the political power to re-add someone to the ballot by a political vote. The Court did what they should (except I think there is legitimate legal question about whether this should only have applied to the final ballot instead of primaries). What is done next is the political part.

  • Didn't he supposedly keep a copy of it by his bed at some point? Seems like a weird book to just keep around for decor. Whether he ever finished it is a separate issue, but I think it's fair to assume he's at least read parts of it.
