I didn’t mean to dispute that. I just checked what you stated and posted what I found for anyone else who, like me, wasn’t up to date on this meeting. I share your assessment.

The AP reported:
The 88-year-old pope offered the Catholic vice president three big chocolate Easter eggs for Vance’s three young children, who did not attend, as well as a Vatican tie and rosaries.
The penguins will tariff him up.
You’ve conjured images in my mind. I wish you hadn’t.
Whatcha gonna do next, separate boys and girls again? Make all females wear sacks?
Don’t give them ideas. I wouldn’t be surprised if they promoted gender segregation as some form of “protection against the gay trans threat”.
I can’t even believe the trump admin is going after tech giants.
I share the disbelief. I think it is mostly a power play against not just Google, but all tech giants, which must be watching this closely, given most of them operate in a similarly anticompetitive manner: kiss the ring or else. The Trump administration could give Google reprieve in exchange for axing DEI further and helping push their political agenda.
I can’t imagine anything the admin does will be good for society so maybe its safe to assume they will be broken up so elon can buy a chunk?
I think so too: if Google doesn’t satisfy Trump and his administration, parts of it will be forcibly sold as private equity, outside of shareholder scrutiny and beyond the reach of the SEC. Such a private company would be easier to control than a publicly traded one.
Ich danke Dir und @SpongyAneurism@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz für Eure Erklärungen.
Was war die rassistische Bedeutung dieses Wortes? Laut dem entsprechenden Artikel auf Wikipedia wurde dieses Wort ausschließlich gegen „unmännliche“ Männer und „wenig damenhafte“ Frauen verwendet, bevor es seine heutige Bedeutung annahm.
Yeah. Over on Moronix Phoronix, every article about Rust, systemd, Wayland or –to a lesser extent– GNOME is a troll fest.
I think what @Naich@lemmings.world means is that the recent UK Supreme Court ruling gives some cover to Starmer, allowing him to pin some of the dissatisfaction with his eventual acquiescence to US pressure on the judiciary (even though Labour, being in control of the legislature, could fix the laws instead of washing their hands…).
Extreme constipation would have our beloved Couchhumper spewing shit — literally, this time. It would be such an improvement…
Is that the average 4chaner?
I for one find “Genocide Don” quite catchy. The problem with this label is that the man himself and most of his supporters will likely just shrug it off as if it weren’t worth denying; it would be like calling a paid assassin a “murderer”.
Their marriage hasn’t been the same since Bert returned from Vietnam and Earnie gave in to the voices.
If Putin’s tables are anything to go by, those Russian couches must be nice and curvy in JD’s eyes.
Yeah… I still have clips of Blackwater’s ‘adventures’ in Iraq. If they’re still as humane and accountable as they were back then, seeing them anywhere is a bad omen.
TIL Epson made laptops. Having had to deal with some of their printers and scanners, I’m not inclined to learn more.
So dämlich sind die bei der Union doch nicht — die nehmen sicher ihr Geburtsdatum.
That’s exactly it. Owners want people desperate, because desperate people work for less. As you point out, they start with “illegals”, but they will eventually come for the old and the disabled too, because some people will have to pick up where Social Security left and care for them and, in doing so, will become even more desperate. Who will risk their job fighting for their rights knowing that not only their own livelihood, but also that of their old mother or their disabled brother is on the line? We need to be clear: this is not about government efficiency or even a crackdown on “illegals”, but a war — the owners’ war on us workers and our kin.
They’ve been manufacturing consent in a similar way in Germany, agitating against immigrants and dubbing some or all people in your situation “Sozialschmarotzer” –“social parasites”–. Under the pretense of fighting those threats they conjure, they’ve been dismantling social security — without DOGE’s viciousness, but bit by bit.
I don’t think so, at least when it comes to US citizens, because deportations would cost them and spark controversy for no benefit. I think they’d prefer to keep these deeply indebted people in the US as indentured servants willing to work for pennies and too poor to engage politically.
