You think this organization's judgement is some objective algorithm and doesn't contain its own subjective biases?

It's incredible people are down voting you because they don't like this thought. Y'all know how America is right? If this is all real, his approval numbers likely grow and his base gets fired up. Reagan got a bump back in the day.

You don't have to like that, but it's not misinformation to speculate on how this plays out. These images will be used for the rest of this race.

And it's the same for heavily red states. It literally doesn't matter unless you live in Florida, Ohio, or one of the other handful of swing states, but they love to act like we're the problem for why they can't motivate people to support their shit candidates

Bloodlust leads to war crimes.

Leftists would do well to remember to retain and value their humanity. It should be what separates us from them. This isn't a call for pacifism, btw. It's a call to not lose yourself in hate and dehumanization.

It's sad that this type of comment can be and is often spun as "antisemitism"

It's quite disingenuous to say defederating because of political differences.

Ironically a luxury that communist nations would not provide you with.

Ok, Jesus.

Capital wins again. If only the FTC didn't sit on its ass for the last 40 years, maybe such market consolidation wouldn't be allowed and normalized.

Also shout-out to this comm. The Beehaw community seems delighted. You can sometimes really tell which instances skew toward leftists vs liberals

If you don't want someone to decide who you can connect with, you can spin your own instance. Otherwise every instance has admins that aren't you

If the comment was about "black people causing the most crime in the US", would you think it's worth listening to? Something having citations and being written in a "civil" tone does not necessarily mean it's high level discourse.

Some people hear dog whistles. Some don't.

It's not alt accounts. The base users of Lemmy platform as a whole (lemmy.ml, et al) do not want to see cherry picked, anecdotal transphobia disguised under civility
