  • Only 32% of Catholic priests say that it's important to try and convince others to accept their religion. Evangelical pastors are at 82%.

    Jump

  • In both situations, it's oppression. There is no other way to look at it. It's no wonder why evangelicals are, by and large, conservatives that support Trump.

  • One California worker dead, hundreds arrested, after cannabis farm raid

    Jump

  • The problem isn't the instance you are on. It's the instance this community is on. I've started to comment less and less on .world because of their "both sides are the same" stance.

  • Sanders Says Billionaire Effort to Crush Mamdani Rooted in Fears of Nationwide Progressive Wave

    Jump

  • The biggest problem, and I do say biggest, that DNC has is that they all have been trying to win votes not by being progressive but chasing after "the center" or left leaning Republicans. They can't do that if they support true progressive candidates.

  • Kash Patel Is Polygraphing FBI Staff to Find Out if They’re Being Mean About Him

    Jump

  • Polygraphs provide authoritarians the excuse to get rid of people.

    The same way that scientology uses auditing. The point is to instil fear and doubt into whomever you're measuring so that you can manipulate them.

    So, they are extremely useful.

  • AI slows down some experienced software developers, study finds

    Jump

  • They wanted someone with experience, who can hit the ground running, but didn't want to pay for it, either with cash or time.

    • cheap
    • quick
    • experience

    You can only pick two.

  • YSK: if you are visiting Puerto Rico from the mainland US, you can sign up to escort a rescue animal on your return flight to their adopter

    Jump

  • How does this work? I know that PR is an US territory but I imagine there are some quarantine procedures for animals.

    Or has all of that been worked out already and you're just the courier?

    Edit: nevermind. My mind skipped past the explanation and went straight for the cute picture.

    Volunteers are on both sides of the journey.

  • Lula threatens 50% tariff on US goods in retaliation for Trump levy on Brazil

    Jump

  • Brazil could appeal to the World Trade Organization, propose international investigations and “demand explanations”,

    Yeah if there's one thing this administration really respects is investigations.

  • ICE handcuffs 71-year-old grandmother, a U.S. citizen, at San Diego immigration court

    Jump

  • Going way too far is the point.

    This is about oppression, not about justice.

  • Missouri AG: Any AI That Doesn’t Praise Donald Trump Might Be “Consumer Fraud” (No, Really)

    • the most felony convictions
    • the most state and federal criminal investigations that are still open
    • the most amount of diapers worn during a presidential term
    • the first president in what 20 years to puss out and have his inauguration indoors
    • the first president to have been a confirmed rapist

    I'm going to speculate:

    • the smallest penis
    • the most obese
    • the shortest

  • “Donated” plasma today

  • I was having just this conversation with a friend of mine the other day. There is a level of net worth that once you hit it, it becomes exponentially harder to get out of poverty than someone who isn't poor. And absolutely no amount of money can help them because unless you can stop the churn, all that money will just go toward the black hole of fees and other expenses.

  • Buttery males strike back!

    Jump

  • The DNC rigged the primary for Hilary and pushed Bernie out. My unpopular opinion is that the DNC was within their rights to do that (being a private party and all) but it was shitty as hell.

    The DNC is putting their finger on the scale in the NYC mayoral race right fucking now.

    The DNC is getting away with this because we can't be bothered to create a third party or hold them accountable.

    ...

    Wow I started this post wanting to disagree with you but....yeah...we really need to be marching against the DNC right now.

  • What's your favorite thing that anyone has done out of pure spite?

    Jump

  • Tricking people to pay 100x its normal cost is pure unadulterated capitalism.

  • Why does have to be this way?

    Jump

  • The kinds of psychos that work at companies that measure performance by number of commits and PRs, successful or not.

  • Trump announces 50% tariff on Brazil over Bolsonaro trial, 'unfair' trade

    Jump

  • He'll never admit it. He'll blame immigrants or the gays or the trans or the woke or the Jews or the liberals or Biden or Obama or the Clintons.

    Never himself.

  • IRS says churches can endorse political candidates in reversal of decades-long precedent

    Jump

  • "Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."

    They are going to be sued by Christians or the government itself. We are no longer a country bound by the rule of law.

  • IKEA moves to Thread (and away from Zigbee)

    Jump

  • I exclusively use ZigBee. It automeshes.

  • Virginia is home to a SHIT ton of defense contractors. If it was broken down by county, the Northern Virginia and the eastern counties would probably be all professional services and the rest would be healthcare.
