  • A note on Universal Monk:

  • Internet Archive breached again through stolen access tokens

    Jump

  • Anna’s Archive does this. I think its a really good way to make it difficult to take them down.

    Hopefully this hack starts some conversations on how they can ensure longevity for their project. Seems they’re being attacked on multiple fronts now.

  • Am I the only one who see this move as weird?

  • Last I checked Harris was part of Biden's administration, and was bending over backwards to defend Biden, right up until the entire party turned on them to oust him.

    Pretty stupid state of affairs that I can't give the most mild criticism of Harris's campaign strategy without getting dogpiled.

  • Biden was very insistent that he was fine, when he was very clearly not fine. It took a shitton of internal pressure to get him to step down.

    It's just not a good look and makes them look a little hypocritical, there's so many other worthwhile things to attack him on.

  • They’re trying to push Trump into doing the same and saying in a roundabout way that he’s too old/unhealthy for office.

    Probably a bad move because it will just remind the public about Biden and all that shit that was going on a few months ago.

    Why conservatives get suspended more than liberals on social media

    Jump

  • I don’t need to read this article to know that the answer is hate speech.

  • Liz Cheney campaigns with Kamala Harris for first time, as campaign continues GOP outreach

    Jump

  • I would wager that there's more people on the left disillusioned with the Democrats over their Israel policy than there are Republicans who would be swayed by Liz Cheney.

  • Jill Stein Is Killing the Green Party

    Jump

  • As much as I’m tempted, I’m not interested in getting to a debate with you about this. For someone mad about me ‘jumping to conclusions’ you sure made a whole lot of assumptions about me that aren’t really true.

    Whether my rant was directed at you, or one of the handful of other Jill Stein nutjobs on here doesn’t really matter, I’ve said my piece.

    Have a great day.

  • Jill Stein Is Killing the Green Party

    Jump

  • Yes that was hyperbolic, I see these posts on my feed on a daily basis, and it's filled with dozens of rehashed comments bickering about the validity of third parties. It's getting far more attention here than it deserves when there are tons of actual, real political issues in the world.

    I'll be the first to say that I hate both major parties, but I have the political literacy to understand that the way to fix it is not by voting for someone with questionable ties to Russia that seems to pop up out of nowhere every four years.

    If you guys actually cared to solve the issues you'd be campaigning to first and foremost get electoral reform to make third parties even remotely viable instead of trying to work within this extremely broken, barely democratic system. You'd also be doing work at a local level where real change can be made to movement rather than just throwing a candidate out for president every election. You won't do that though because you're all a bunch of weird idealists with fantastical views of how politics work. I'm interested in following news thats grounded in reality

  • I hate how they’ve spammed their way into turning this community into 90% conversations about irrelevant 3rd parties.

    Every post is either by them or something meant to dunk on them.

  • Trump Avoids ‘Black Nazi’ Mark Robinson As GOP Cuts His Cash

    Jump

  • Which is pretty funny because one of the comments Robinson made on a porn forum was saying how much he hates MLK and he calls him "Martin Lucifer C**n"

  • I'm pretty sure both the App Store and the Google Play Store both require social media apps to have a block feature. Will be interesting to see what happens if he goes through with this.

  • Trump has no plan to pull his endorsement of Mark Robinson after porn site scandal

    Jump

  • Republicans making so many unforced errors.

    The stupid part is none of this could matter and they could still win

  • Mark Robinson, NC GOP nominee for governor, called himself a ‘black NAZI!,’ supported slavery in past comments made on porn forum

    Jump

  • I'm generally pretty pessimistic about shit like this, but he was polling badly to begin with, I can't imagine this helps him any.

  • I don't understand that interpretation. The original comment was:

    Israel could have taken out entire hospital staffs with this “technique”. Hope they remain human and don’t.

    To which macarthur_park replied:

    Seems unlikely considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.

    They do not think it's likely that hospital staff, Hezbollah affiliated or not, could be in danger. I challenged that. I don't think they were aware that Hezbollah had a civilian wing at all, and that many public sector workers are technically "Hezbollah-affiliated" due to the nature of the political situation there.

    No one has suggested that in this comment chain.

    Good, then we should all agree that this was a despicable attack on Israel's part and this whole conversation is pointless.

  • They said “Seems unlikely [that pagers would be in the hands of doctors] considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.”

    That article directly refutes that. It is heavily implied when you’re all saying “Hezbollah” you’re talking about militants. Again, it is unreasonable to suggest that workers, including doctors and nurses, that are part of the civilian arm of Hezbollah’s de facto government are fair targets in either morality or international law.

  • Hezbollah, the de facto government of large parts of Lebanon, ordered the pagers and widely distributed them. Many of them went to civilians for legitimate purposes. It's unreasonable to suggest that these are fair targets because they were briefly in Hezbollah's control at some point along the chain.
