  • What do you do when people don't care?

    Jump

  • I think a better question is, how do we make our elected representatives care? (The answer, of course, is by not electing a**holes, but that's not going to happen until people really start to suffer).

  • What search engines do you use?

    Jump

  • I like the SearX search engine. It gives old-school, relevant search results, not google ranked ones.

    It's also spread out over many separate instances, so you can pick the one that best suits your search needs:

  • Musk makes Holocaust jokes after Netanyahu defends him as ‘great friend of Israel’

    Jump

  • Corporate news media is terrified of being sued for libel by Musk, even though it was obviously a Nazi salute. So they use words like "seemed" and "appeared" to avoid saying the obvious.

    But the problem is, if you want to be taken seriously as a "news" organization, then you have to speak truth to power and that's going to make you a lot of enemies. Companys have legal departments to minimize their risk, but in the case of journalism, that department exists to get you OUT of trouble not to keep you from ever getting into it.

  • “Don’t say Hess to Nazi accusations! Some people will Goebbels anything down! Stop Gőring your enemies! His pronouns would’ve been He/Himmler! Bet you did nazi that coming,” Musk posted Thursday, adding laughing-face emojis.

    Being a dipshit Edge Lord all the time must be exhausting. Remember "Poochie" from "The Simpsons?" Yeah, that's Elon. To the X-treme.

  • If Trump actually releases documents incriminating the CIA and/or FBI in the murders of JFK and MLK, how would your opinions change of the US government for the past 70 years?

    Jump

  • Trump himself was a visitor to Epstein's pedo island. A lot of rich people were there as well and there are lists and proof of it. The notion that Epstein killed himself in his own jail cell is ridiculous. A lot of people wanted to see him dead.

  • Why Socialism? is a good read

  • "The good of the people" is a noble goal. The problem is that for the most part, people who deliberately seek power to lead these groups are vain, greedy, selfish, brutal assholes.

    Collectivism, as Karl Marx wrote it, has never been practiced in any so-called "communist" country on Earth. It's always been an oligarchy.

  • Meteorologist Who Called Out Musk’s ‘Nazi’ Salute Gets Shown the Door

    Jump

  • Dear News Media. Your job is speaking truth to power, which means you're going to make a lot of enemies. So unlike other big companies, the point of your legal department is to get you OUT of trouble, not to keep you from ever getting into it. Having principles in the business world isn't cheap or easy. Nothing worthwhile ever is.

  • Meteorologist Who Called Out Musk’s ‘Nazi’ Salute Gets Shown the Door

    Jump

  • So why is CBS affiliate WDJT-TV in Milwaukee Wisconsin defending the speech of an apartheid-loving fascist who did a full-on nazi salute on national TV? And if that's not what they're doing, then why did they fire that reporter?

    That's the question that every real news outlet should be asking.

  • "likened to a Nazi salute."

    Come on, BBC. It was more obvious than a sunrise what that was.

  • How do I better support my trans supervisee?

  • Also, resist any government mandates that want to know where/ how many jews trans people are in your department. It's not your job to help anyone make other people's lives miserable.

    Welp

    Jump

  • What exactly is the "context" for doing a full-on nazi salute? Other than to show everyone that you're a nazi?

  • Plausible deniability

    Jump

  • CNN is already sane-washing this, referring to Musk's "odd gesture."

  • If you're looking for a time to take action. It was 8 years ago.

    Jump

  • Yup. CNN deserves a gold medal for mental gymnastics.

  • And these "coins" are actually tokens. Not only are they not backed by any real assets (venture capital, real estate, etc), the damn things don't even exist in reality!
