  • By golly that sure does sound like some of that there 'election interference' Trump and his chuds are always screeching about, don't it?

  • It's peak fragility. Trump also tried to get the DOJ to investigate Saturday Night Live for being mean to him.

  • On a Telegram channel previously run by him, Bentley’s wife, Lyudmila, said he had been “abducted” by Russian soldiers from a tank battalion, and called on them to let him go.

    The self-declared communist joined pro-Moscow separatists in Ukraine to fight Kyiv in 2014. He later also worked for the state-owned Russian news agency Sputnik and was given Russian nationality.

  • Yeah, it’s an extremely popular sentiment on the internet to scoff at software update related recalls as if they “don’t count.” 9 times out of 10 the person making the claim is a Muskrat, because this is a very common thing with Teslas and daddy Elon must be defended at all costs but every now and then they’re just a run of the mill moron unwittingly parroting Muskrat talking points.

    A recall is a recall whether the issue can be patched OTA or whether you have to drive to a dealership so they can spend 30mins swapping a random seemingly inconsequential part. The specific mechanics of the solution do not change the fact that a problem required a recall to be issued to consumers. Perpetuating the notion that these recalls should be considered “less important than a real recall” is dangerous to the point of stupidity.

  • But this seems like a failed attempt at blackmail where the blackmailer is trying to follow through after not being paid. Not someone bravely standing up against discrimination and bigotry.

    I think this is one of situations where everyone is an asshole.

    Yeah this didn't come to light out of altruism or a "coming to god" moment where their conscience suddenly came into play. But I also don't care how or why bigots get exposed. No sympathy for an asshole getting screwed over by another asshole. If these are the kinds of games you play and this is the company you keep you're gonna get burned eventually.

  • Greg Gutfeld's the kind dude that stopped reading books when he got to be too old for the Book-It program and couldn't score any more free personal pizzas at Pizza Hut.

  • I neither said nor implied any such thing. You brought up books written in the 1800s which is why my initial reply specifically focused on the 19th century. You're either dumb or you're here in bad faith, but based on your last sentence, being a weak attempt to shift the conversation from LGBTQ and non-binary people to pederasts, which is straight out of the right-wing playbook, it's safe to assume the latter. So we're done here.

  • OP received a 3 day temporary ban for violating the instance's rule against transphobia. That in no way, shape, or form, constitutes a moderator "power trip."

  • Yes, homosexuality and non-gender conforming individuals have existed throughout human history and across all cultures with varying social attitudes toward them. You know, you're quite opinionated for someone with no demonstrable understanding of the topic, but I suppose that explains a lot.

  • Have you ever wondered why that is? LGBTQ and non-binary people existed in the 19th century too, they just weren't safe to live as they chose to publicly. And when it was mentioned in literature it was typically couched in euphemisms of the period. I understand that you'd clearly prefer all these people go back in the closet rather than be inconvenienced by having to acknowledge their existence, but are you really daft enough to think this is something dreamed up in the 2010s? For fuck sake...

  • Lmao. So OP is unwilling to show others the simple courtesy of respecting their gender identity then comes running here to whine about dIsReSpeCt because their bigoted hot take got them a three day ban from a community. 🙄

    Edit: Ooooh and they're on a three day old account too? In that case I give it an hour or two before they realize they aren't getting any sympathy here and run to r/RedditAlternatives to complain about "censorship" on Lemmy and lament the lack of freeze peach reddit alternatives.

  • Mr Stanley said farms were facing “an existential moment” because of the changing climate, which could put many out of business, reducing UK food security.

    “The problem that we’re facing is that weather is becoming so extreme that it is overwhelming our ability as farmers to continue to grow crops at all in some places,” he said.

    Yes, but let's not lose sight of what's really important, by sacrificing the planet we've successfully prevented a few billionaires from having to sell their yachts.

  • Unfortunately it's not. That's the founder of "Power The Future" which is a mouthpiece for fossil fuel industry/right wing propaganda. The dude is a professional piece of shit.

  • Yeah, the "PTF" at the end of his username stands for "Power The Future", the name of his special interest group, which is doublespeak for "do everything possible to avoid acknowledging the climate crisis and the role fossil fuels have played in getting us here."

  • Communism is when you.. Wait okay let me start over. If someone else is doing something and.. Hold on. So you know how theres capitalism and then there's.... Please don't do a communism.

  • ...I got better

  • A witch turned me into a newt.

  • Yeah it’s a funny headline but they’re gonna be overrun with tourists and it’s gonna be pretty inconvenient. Unfortunately celestial bodies don’t care. 🤷‍♂️
