The Teamsters president is conflating Democratic refusal to support a blanket national right to strike with continued Republican support for union busting efforts that take away worker's rights and fund unions under the guise of an illusory "right to work," and does not actually guarantee a job or anything or the sort.

It's a tortured, strange, apples to oranges comparison so he can "both sides" the issue even though only one side is an existential threat to worker's rights and the concept of unions. It's a helluva position to take as the president of a union.

So, it turns out that the guy whose inherited fortune was earned in Apartheid- era South Africa has some pretty crazy views on race.

Who knew?

The court was already packed with activist judges appointed under suspicious or hypocritical circumstances who then lied to Congress during their confirmations about their deference to precedent on a host of issues only to the engage in a massive power grab from Congress. Subsequent action to rebalance the court is not court packing.

For anyone confused about the MAGA-ese: Failure to make payments under Bankruptcy and repo man coming for what's due = federal government repressing muh rights

It's embarrassing how, if you say the magic words, the MAGA brain shuts down and just becomes compliant with anything.

How is it that a sitting Supreme Court Justice is flying the flags of those who have and will again attempt to overthrow the lawfully elected government of the United States, and we are merely discussing recusal? Can you even imagine the response if a liberal Justice had flown a CPUSA related flag in the 1960s or whatever?

Things are rotten.

It's like Pleasantville, but in reverse and it's a horror film.

Yup. By and large, the SEO industry is a cancer.

This is how sync has run for almost a decade? I'm not sure why one would jump to the conclusion that it's abandoned. Love it or hate it, it is completely in line with how the dev has run his project for years.

Cult people using the cult as an excuse/justification to behave like selfish assholes. A tale as old as time.

When are the rest of us going to get sick of this petulant bullshit?

For me it's been pretty great. Lemmy and the fediverse kinda remind me of reddit circa 2007 or 2008 before the eternal September. I'm going to enjoy this for as long as it lasts.

I may be missing something, but the article completely loses the thread when it starts grousing over "why won't the 3Ps pay up? " Because even if they pay, NSFW content is still not available for users. Reddit is attempting to force third party devs to charge for an inferior product, which is obviously untenable for all parties.
