  • Eric Adams says many Gen Z voters who back his NYC mayoral rival Mamdani are ‘nasty, radicalized and hate our country’

  • It's something that used to be said on occasion and shock people and now it's just expected. So... yeah, pretty much now.

  • In terms of its physical size when it was still in print, the newspaper did adopt a compact, tabloid format. This could be the reason people think it's an actual tabloid. Using that format is a great way to get many people to look down on your publication.

    As Far as credibility goes, they are left center (so not as unbias as they could be) and they have been known to misreport things... but who hasn't?

    Media Bias Fact Check gives them a rating of "Medium Credibility" https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-independent/

    That said, compared to News here in Canada; CTV, CBC, and Global all have a better rating than the Independent.

  • That country is never going back. Once the politicians doing this shit becomes the norm, it's all over.

  • AOC Reportedly Gearing Up for Big 2028 Campaign

    Jump

  • Popular vote isn't enough in the United states. Also, Hilary is Bill's wife. That's part of why she got as many votes as she did. If I was American, I would vote for AOC but I know she'd never win. A woman of colour has no chance down there. I hate saying it, but it is what it is.

  • Disney+ cancellation page crashes as customers rush to quit after Kimmel suspension

    Jump

  • Even if they get back two thirds of the people who quit while the other third have discovered "other" ways to get their Disney content, that's still a third of a loss of revenue. A small dent is better than no dent. And whether the website crashed because of all the people quitting or they intentionally crashed it to prevent people from quitting, that means its a significant amount of people, and a third of that is still significant to them.

  • Do seagulls remember the 90s?

    Jump

  • Most of them only live 10 to 20 in the wild.

    But we all know if pigeons could live this long, we wouldn't need an ornithologist to tell us they're dumb LOL. They can live up to 15 years in captivity with someone taking care of them. If they're on their own, the dumb fucks often don't make it to 5.

  • Hey thanks for the reply. I wasn't aware of that community. Thanks very much!

  • NO!

  • Man, I so WISH I could say no to windows. I would install Mint today if I could. It just won't install. It begins to install and then just hangs for hours and never installs. I've tried other distros and they all fail, one way or another. I'm pretty sure (but not positive) it has something to do with my bios settings but no matter what I try, I have no luck.

  • So many solutions

  • Dude... why you gotta call me out like that? I was perfectly content being an online slacktivist, griping about shit I'm not actually going to do anything about and now you've ruined it 😠

  • The alarming rise of US officers hiding behind masks: ‘A police state’

    Jump

  • As much as I like the way you think, I don't think that would fly in an American court of law. You don't need to see their face to know their a cop / law enforcement. They're wearing a uniform.

  • Steam Beta finally enables Proton on Linux fully, making Linux gaming simpler

  • As someone who will be switching to Mint very soon, I am so thrilled to hear this.

  • Dangerous mindset. Too close to "You're either with us or you're against us" There is nothing wrong with being right down the middle and having some right wing ideologies and some left wing ideologies. Lots of people are socially liberal and fiscally conservative. It's not their fault the political system and zealots who've politicized everything have drawn such a deep line in the sand.

  • Apparently we aren't allowed to fight fire with fire. eyeroll

    You know what? Fuck that. When I deal with meatheads at work (I'm in construction) I use their own language against them to shame them. One example: If they say something is woke just because they don't like it, I'm calling them a r3tard. Not because I enjoy saying the word, but because I KNOW it's language that will actually get through to them. " Are you r3tarded?" Is A LOT more effective than "That's not nice" with people who are like that.

  • I'm a mid 90s Liberal Party OF Canada Leftist. That used to mean center left and right leaning on a few fiscal issues. I have no idea what it means by today's standards.
