If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

  • So fucking stupid, despite out predicting him at every single turn. Never understand why double down is the only option these "no I'm not human" visitors have in their dialog tree.

  • I think Jordan covered the rule existing and not to break it, but I'd like to discuss why it's there to hopefully make this more transparent. Especially since Mitch may be croaking soon also (or already did, who knows?)

    Rule 6 is a necessary evil. The reason is that websites which are truly off the rails are often singled out. A mostly leftist forum would be even more likely to be targeted. Community mods should on occasion think what would these posts look like on an FBI filing, or on a hit piece on the DSA for example. Not the same morally, but famously many nationalist/racist sites have been targeted and then had their hosting or ddos protection revoked because of content on the site calling for death or celebrating it with their rules and enforcements having no such limitations.

    Different levels of extremes than here obviously, but the corporate landscape and justice dept is not on our side here and so interpretations which seem obvious to you may not be made before damage has been done.

    Above all, mods have a responsibility to not create problems for the site that hosts their coms, regardless of deserved or undeserved protection on someone's legacy.

    Besides, it's just as easy to say, "Warmonger Graham: Never an offensive war he didn't support, never a dollar from Israel he didn't immediately allow into his decision making process, never a brown person he didn't want to kill. He has obtained what he wanted most for others, death. He can now start his final battle without his mortal coil, to start a regime change in hell."

  • You'll be dead, are you suggesting we become a necropacy? No wonder he likes the Kims so much in NK

  • I believe what you're looking for is a union, not a lawsuit.

  • Pretty sure Chuck would let them through. So long as they were sufficiently zionist.

  • They could set up a green room mimicking the 4th celebration as a background. It's not like anyone is there to dispute it.

  • It's a shame how obvious the crisis is while capitalism insists on us all fucking around. Maybe we don't all want to find out together. Too bad, we don't matter.

  • They handwave at Pelosi and vaguely at congressional inside trading. Obviously the scale is beyond their feeble brains' ability to comprehend earning 6m+ per day for his family of ghouls. That being said, insider trading has definitely applied a wet towel to Democrats' ability to rally against blatant out and about corruption. This is another great example of why a particular type of Democrat needs to go away asap. But also an example of why we need to nationalize his properties to get our money back.

  • I hope Mitch and all the geriatric octogenarian dinos and conservatives will be there to show their support. It'd also make the place feel less empty.

  • Maybe Mitch and Trump will have one of those dual deaths where they're only holding out for each other.

  • Buh-bye zionist bitch

  • Didn't really address the argument. It's not out of context and Google is free.

    Your other argument is that it's a slippery slope between not supporting a genociding ethnostate and not liking minorities in your own nation? Maybe when you're an ethnonationalist. Do you think Lemmy is majority ethnonationalist? Are you one? Ironically it's almost explicitly ethnonationalists that do support Israel because they can see the narrative of a, "successful ethnostate" as a justification for having their own, usually white Christian, version.

    I have no idea where you're seeing rampant antisemitism from the left, I highly highly suspect it's actually from the right and you're being bamboozled. If anything we often ignore the fact that there's majority support for Israel amongst Jews because we understand there's also a lot of jews standing strong against the genocide and we don't want to antisemetically lump them all in the way people who talk like you often do, where you're cagey about insulting a nation state to spare the feelings of Jewish supremacists or god forbid Jews who just like the place (I wonder why). I can freely say "fuck jewish supremacists" knowing anyone who would read between the lines to more than supremacists is not arguing in good faith anyways. Being a liberal identity politics obsessive person sounds EXHAUSTING dude.

  • Qatar? The same country we abandoned to protect Israel? Hope they enjoy the symbol of that betrayal.

  • I don't believe that it actually entails any hierarchy beyond some new positions which amount to coordinators. It's basically a free pass to allow millitary dollars to be spent through Israel though, except without contracts like someone like Blackwater would need and allows collaboration on all levels at the discretion of military leaders, which would naturally just be a compromised pedophile Trump, who acts as a unitary executive.

  • It's literally part of the House's NDAA proposal. It allows millitary personnel and leadership to direct millitary funds directly to collaboration on all levels of millitary and intelligence with Israel, effectively bypassing the defense spending reserved by congress for them and leaving it in the hands of a compromised cabinet. Not conspiracy at all, and in fact draws up a better question. When are you going to give up on the "anti-israel is anti-jew" bullshit?

  • No, but Gaza and the West Bank sure do. We should switch the entire fund to rebuilding them and taking back their borders. They can choose whether to keep the trashy bullshit built on their land.
