I don't know why he put that as a literal quote. As far as I remember it was simply about the nazi symbols like the swastikas, which are illegal in Germany for good reason.

It heavily depends on how you interpret the description.
In Germany there are a restaurants that prepare a big batch of soup and desert and serve it automatically to every main dish (three courses).
If it includes bread and butter and a drink on top, then this might not be gourmet shit but it's definitely not expensive at all.

Mataulipas! I guess you're tired of that joke but I like Mexican dark humor and miss a good community here on Lemmy :( saludos!

Psst..just let him, voting for Brainworm Jr. means most likely a vote less for Trump.

I marked my rent payments to my roommate with "Cocaine and Hookers", went on for years but his bank complained one day too.

Funny to imagine if the banks managers were actually using our money for exactly that, but marked as company expenses instead.

The (Rep.) speaker Mike Johnson went against the MAGAs and worked together with the Democrats to get it passed.
But I doubt they would have gotten enough votes if they didn't bundle it with the aid for Israel and the TikTok ban.

It's because the Republicans wouldn't let a bill, that only supports Ukraine, pass. So this was a compromise.

Yes, don't trust any of those you mentioned, but I disagree with Meta doing the US' bidding.
Putin has absolutely no problem pushing his disinformation campaign through fb for example.

Zuckerberg and Musk only care about money, while TikTok is directly controlled by the Chinese government.

That being said, I wouldn't mind Meta products and xitter being banned at all.

It all boils down to the question if we should care about people arguing in bad faith.

Carlson proved to be Putin's mouthpiece, everything he says follows an agenda, which is, as mentioned in the article, to divide the US.

Does it matter that he and a lot of people on social media just play pretend because they want to hurt Bidens chances of reelection?

I think it should be allowed to be pointed out, even though they're not wrong. They just don't care about Palestinians. For Carlson at least that much is obvious.
