FlyingSquid , in More than 30 bomb threats made in Springfield, Ohio, after false pets claims
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve said this more than once, but… when people start actually getting murdered, will they keep doubling down on the racist lies?

MagicShel ,

Yes. For proof, look at when cops murder people.

psvrh ,
@psvrh@lemmy.ca avatar

Yes.

They’re hoping for a Reichstag Fire moment where they can win control during the chaos.

barsquid ,

Yes, they want the murders. They want them as government-run pogroms.

towerful ,

It’s all amendment rights until it’s one of the racist fucks that gets murdered.
Then the police get military equipment to deal with the rising crime rates.

istanbullu , in NYPD shot four people - including two bystanders one who is in critical condition - and another cop over a $2.90 fare.

How incompetent do you have to be to shoot a bystander?

When aiming into a crowd of people? You’d have to be an exceptional marksman to hit your target. Of course, there’s the question of why you’re firing into a crowd to begin with.

istanbullu ,

Of course, there’s the question of why you’re firing into a crowd to begin with.

that was my question

jpreston2005 ,

What I want to understand is how the cops shot themselves… were they facing each other with the perp in between them?

istanbullu ,

most cops are idiots, that is probably why.

Malfeasant ,

NYPD incompetent.

TipRing , in Major companies abandon an LGBTQ+ rights report card after facing anti-diversity backlash

These companies were never our allies, fair weather opportunists only willing to say they value us so long as it costs them nothing. I remember the few businesses that would openly support lgbt causes back in the early 90s back when public support was not on our side. These cowardly corpos today get a tiny whiff of fascist whining and immediately throw us under the nearest bus.

whotookkarl , in NYPD can't find knife at center of Brooklyn subway bystander shooting
@whotookkarl@lemmy.world avatar

Why hasn’t the mayor released the full body cam footage yet? If they are going to release statements but withhold material evidence we should assume they are doing it to manipulate public opinion against the facts.

Trabic ,

He’s a little busy right now

And he’s also a cop, so guess which side he would be on

jordanlund , in Sean 'Diddy' Combs arrested
@jordanlund@lemmy.world avatar

Wait, you can just take somebody into custody when they’re indicted? 🤔

undergroundoverground ,

Diddy only fits 2/3 of the criteria for that

dogslayeggs ,

At first I thought you were making a three fifths compromise joke.

Indictment means that a grand jury have decided to charge you with a crime. The judge puts a warrant out for your arrest.

The secret to living to 110 was, don’t register your death.

yeah lol

short version: almost all “very old humans” are just dead and never register their deaths

EmpathicVagrant ,

How inconsiderate to just die and not call someone about it…

xmunk ,

It’s more common that dependents who are receiving the benefits don’t register the death to keep the payments flowing. I personally think a lot of places could be much more generous with poverty assistance instead of forcing those folks to keep the pensions flowing to garner aide.

goddard , in Trump Directly Blames Harris and Biden’s Words for the Latest Attempt On His Life: ‘Their Rhetoric is Causing Me to Be Shot at’

If you look at his press release he also quotes their words in like over 100 instances.

merc , in Trump Directly Blames Harris and Biden’s Words for the Latest Attempt On His Life: ‘Their Rhetoric is Causing Me to Be Shot at’

It’s got to be driving him absolutely nuts that the second shooter is also a presumably christian, straight, white, man. Anything else and he could work with it. White woman? Women are too emotional and shouldn’t be trusted to make important decisions. Black man? Go-go all out on the racism. Brown skinned? Anti immigration fear mongering. Trans or gay? Groomer nonsense. Anything other than Christian and he could fearmonger about their foreign religions.

Literally the only identity he can’t exploit is christian, straight, white men and they’re the ones who keep trying to kill him.

captainlezbian ,

Well unfortunately for him they’re the ones that he kept radicalizing to violence.

bec , in JD Vance Calls for ‘Less Rhetoric’ After Spreading Bizarre Pet-Eating Immigrant Conspiracy

He’s playing “Every accusation is a confession” wrong. You’re supposed to make the accusation before you get caught.

RIPandTERROR , in Utah tried to close a teen treatment program over safety concerns. Here’s why a judge is allowing it to stay open.
@RIPandTERROR@sh.itjust.works avatar

I spent 3 years of my childhood in one of these. I hope they get cancer.

“Some of them are coming from one particular country,” he said. “We think that this is, you know, one more opportunity to mess with the United States. And they’re continuing to do that.”

It’s ok, you can say Russia

Edit: also, for those wondering what Russia has to gain from this, it’s basically Putin’s international playbook:

He can’t. The R next to his name stands for Russia

elvith ,

TRUmp. It’s been right in front of our eyes the whole time!

skuzz , in Secret Service: Suspect in apparent assassination attempt did not have a line of sight on Trump, never fired his weapon

It’s Florida, dude was just bird hunting. /s

WatDabney , in JD Vance Calls for ‘Less Rhetoric’ After Spreading Bizarre Pet-Eating Immigrant Conspiracy

And while they’re arguing about who’s causing the most chaos, the rest of us are left wondering—how did it get this bad?

Actually, that’s easy.

It got this bad because our system is so warped and corrupt that most politicians can no longer even pretend to run on policies and principles. If they get elected, they’re going to do one and only one thing - they’re going to serve the interests of the wealthy individuals and corporations that pay them the fattest bribes. They obviously can’t run on a promise to do that, but they can’t promise to do anything else because they’re not going to do anything else. So they run on hatred and fear - they run on things like “ELECT US BECAUSE THE IMMIGRANTS ARE EATING YOUR PETS!!”

It really is just that simple.

NYPD: The dumbest kid from every high school on Long Island.

5oap10116 , (edited )

I’m in Suffolk and can confirm. Kid got a 680/2400 on the SAT. Not that the SAT is a great intelligence test but damn.

3ntranced ,

Man, you get a 600 for just writing your name yikes

Test_Tickles ,

One of the people shot was 1 of the 2 cops doing the shooting.
Let me repeat that just to be clear, the cops fucking shot each other.
I can’t even conceive of the level of stupidity involved here.

TheTechnician27 , in 'All good here': Last messages revealed from Titan submersible before implosion: Coast Guard
@TheTechnician27@lemmy.world avatar
hOrni ,

What do you mean what do we need a mattress for? Why in the hell do you think we just spent all that money on the Titan? The whole point of buying a submersible in the first place is to get the ladies nice and tipsy topside, so we can take em to a nice comfortable place below the sea, and you know… they can’t refuse. Because of the implication.

darvocet ,

It sounds like you want to hurt these women.
