While Trump is obviously a POS and I'd love for him to be banned from running, not allowing anyone to run for office from prison would set a really dangerous precedent.

Wow good for UPS workers. As a tech worker I can say I'm genuinely happy for them. They have a hard ass job. A win for labor is a win for labor, regardless of which type.

I've been using a Pixel 3 for about 5 years and I love it. I actually got a pixel 7 for work earlier this year and honestly prefer the pixel 3 lol. I've had some charging issues because lint gets stuck in the charge port, but I've been able to mostly solve those by cleaning out the port with a toothpick.

Idk man I'm pretty sure the number 6 transitioned from number 9 and now wants to have sex with children.

Yup that is a real rough pill to swallow when the default is free AND no ads. If I'm going to drop money on lemmy I'd rather just donate to whoever is hosting my instance.

Unfortunately fascism can't actually work without an "other" to be a scapegoat. Fascism frames history as the struggle of an infallible ethnostate towards prosperity. Therefore any imperfection in the state is the result of the influence of "others" working against the state. Without an "other" fascists would actually need to take responsibility for society's shortcomings.

It's important to recognize that fascists are not evil comic book villains. If you are a member of their ethnostate they will come off quite pleasant. They will say "You are beautiful, you are kind, you are wise. We are building a utopia and we'd like you to join us." Then eventually they will say "We cannot build a utopia because they stand in our way. They are ugly, they are cruel, they are stupid." And then before you know it you are building gas chambers.

We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong.

But in all seriousness, this feels like the chronological feed given to users was just a straw man intended to make their algorithm look better. Also the claim in the article that Meta's algorithm does not impact users politics is completely ridiculous and not at all supported by a study like this.

As a former Boost for Reddit user I've been digging Jerboa. Definitely going to check out Boost for Lemmy once it's available too.
