I don’t think people there love love her, but something something owning the libs something.

Many USian voters are entranced with the idea of having a firebrand provocateur on their side, someone who is able to get a rise out of their political opponents (not even totally excluding myself as it can be entertaining sometimes). And others just don’t care as long as the other side doesn’t win – to them, keeping the other side out of power is more important than putting a competent person in the seat.

When I saw this this morning, I laughed so hard I almost fell out of bed 😭

Yikes to the fact that Jasmine Crockett received PAC donations from crypto and voted with other Dems to provide military aid to Israel, but at least there’s some entertainment in watching her eat up Republicans like MTG whenever they pull some bullshit like that.

finally getting more time off from work versus the 60-70 hour weeks i was pulling before, so i started participating in a game jam and trying to have a presence on fedi again.

There is no should or shouldn’t, they’ve always had and been entitled to that choice. People who develop and host those platforms can make whatever choice they want.

ActivityPub/the Fediverse is only a protocol. If you philosophically disagree with how a platform makes use of that protocol, then you can (theoretically) just use another platform.

not so hot because things are tense around my house, but i’m moving out towards the end of the week so hopefully it’ll be over soon.

Genuine question: what happened last time?

Respectfully, how on earth did this design get cleared? 😭

lemmy.blahaj.zone might have some of what you’re looking for. Not sure if they offer anything specifically filling the same niche as r/me_irlgbt, but I used to be subscribed to [email protected]. (Overloaded my feed though sadly so that’s why I unsubbed.)

While I appreciate the anger please consider that “mediocre <ethnicity>” is not a very nice way to phrase this.

They are using the original title of the article. As per the sidebar rules - “Preserve the original title when possible.”

Also given the recent demographic pole there are many “white” people here who are likely on your side. It particularly hurts when people on your side use language like this.

To be honest, I don’t find this phrasing nearly as harmful as people of color being told for decades that they weren’t as qualified or deserving to be admitted into Ivy League schools compared to white applicants and that the only reason they were “allowed” is because of their race. Nor does it really compare to the harm caused by decades of subjugation, discrimination, and generational wealth disparity.
