zerosquare1012 , in Malaysia halts music festival after same-sex kiss by UK band The 1975

typical white people thinking they’re the world saviour

Why shouldn’t they protest bigotry? They have a platform to do it from. Some random gay couple kissing in Malaysia is a lot less impactful.

@Nacktmull@lemmy.world avatar

I agree but would like to add that on the other side we have typical homophobes thinking they can force their ideas on everyone else and oppress individual freedom.

JTode ,

I think the people at the festival are mostly going to remember that their government is a buzzkill.

I love how these fucks have rebranded the word “accountability” into “cancel culture”.

There’s nothing for him to be accountable for, the people offended are stretching lyrics because they have constant buttmad syndrome. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I hate how they are super stoked to boycott businesses and brands over politics while at the same time decrying “cancel culture”.

So when conservatives boycott businesses over politics or things like having a diversity director, saying “go woke go broke!”, he’s opposed to that?

We really need a way to block by keywords. Elon Musk says is about as worthless as Donald Trump says.

Could handle it xkcd style with a browser extension.

I would say more actively harmful (since there’s often some attempt at manipulation behind the words) than worthless.

Th4tGuyII , in UNESCO cathedral in Odessa after Russian missile attack
@Th4tGuyII@kbin.social avatar

If the world ever goes to war on Russia, let this be a reminder of how low the bar stands when we're shoving their own medicine down their throats

Taktikek ,

They dont make that link. They have been using cluster ammo for 18 months now but cry since Ukraine has started to use it as well. Pathetic little mindset these people have.

MidwestMayonaiseSalad ,

The cluster munition attack with the highest known civilian casualties occurred on April 8, 2022, when Russia launched a Tochka-U ballistic missile equipped with a cluster munition warhead at a crowded train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk as hundreds of people were trying to leave the area. A detailed Human Rights Watch investigation found that the attack killed at least 58 civilians and injured over 100 others.

MicroWave OP , in Judge orders Montana health clinic to pay nearly $6 million over false asbestos claims
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

The 337 false claims made patients eligible for Medicare and other benefits they shouldn’t have received. The federally funded clinic has been at the forefront of the medical response to deadly pollution from mining near Libby, Montana

MicroWave OP , in Court strikes down limits on filming of police in Arizona
@MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

Bystander cellphone videos are largely credited with revealing police misconduct — such as with the 2020 killing of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis officers — and reshaping the conversation around police transparency. But Republican Arizona lawmakers initially said the legislation was needed to limit people with cameras who deliberately impede officers.

Mississippi AG has no respect for rule of order, like so many powerful people in the USA. Rules are for people who can’t afford to break them.

LemurOnRails , in Italy starts removing lesbian mothers’ names from children’s birth certificates
@LemurOnRails@kbin.social avatar

Traditional family-first is good approach, I only wonder why care so much about non traditionals, they probably won't make traditional family anyway lol.

CeruleanRuin ,

How is this “good approach”?

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Traditional family-first is good approach

Oh, so a man, his 12 children, and his third wife after the first two died in childbirth?

CuriousLibrarian , in Italy starts removing lesbian mothers’ names from children’s birth certificates

I know that the international ultra conservative movement wants to erase LBGTQ rights, but this is one I hadn’t considered. Chiseling away the rights of gay parents in order to jealously guard the “traditional” family is mean and stupid.

WalrusDragonOnABike ,

As someone whose had a lesbian non-biological parent and a birther go to the court over our custody in Texas, I'm thankful the judge recognized my mom's legitimacy as our parent and gave her full custody. But it could have easily turned out differently simply because of the non-biological parent part, but at least her name was on our birth certificates and we had her last name from birth. Can't imagine it would have turned out the same otherwise despite the other person clearly being totally unfit to raise children.

The politicians acting like this isn't discrimination that acts against the interests of children are lying or ignorant of the downstream consequences.

MomoTimeToDie ,

So your argument is completely unqualified conjecture about what a judge might have done differently, given your presumed total lack of legal qualifications?

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Exactly. This is going to lead to taking children out of loving homes.

And that’s by design.

EhList ,
@EhList@lemmy.world avatar

Not just that but it complicates things as the non-birth parent loses legal right so if the birth mom dies and dad was a donor the kid has no parent.

MomoTimeToDie ,

Having a non-biological parents recorded on a birth certificate is just about the farthest thing from a right. Quit the bullshit alarmism.

fubo , in DeSantis doubles down on claim that some Blacks benefited from slavery

DeSantis doubles down on his estimate that his electoral chances really don’t depend on the votes of anyone who isn’t a doctrinaire white-supremacist.

Obstagoon ,
@Obstagoon@lemmy.world avatar

What if you’re not white and vote for him, or if you’re white and not a SuPrEmAcIsT? I’m not voting for him but I am curious on where the answer stands with these two scenarios.

Some republicans aren’t hateful bigots. Some of them are ignorant morons.

Well this didn’t have to do with either and didn’t happen so I can’t really respond to this fake scenario.

    If you saw a house burning down and you did nothing to stop the flames, wouldn’t you say that that person wanted the house to burn down?

    If you are not actively against white supremacists, you are allowing them to spread and flourish. It’s like a weed. If you don’t pull it, it’s going to take over your beds.

    So ceiling is 30% and with Trump present his ceiling is 4%.

    thefloweracidic , in DeSantis doubles down on claim that some Blacks benefited from slavery

    I’m pretty sure any “skills” learned under slavery didn’t create any amount of net good. When slavery ended the living conditions for former slaves plummeted. As a slave they were property, they had value, and their owners had good reason to keep them alive or maintain their selling value. As a free citizen they became a business cost, and held no value to their bosses. Therefore former slaves would get paid next to nothing to do the same brutal work they were doing as slaves, with a whole tsunami of apathetic racism to deal with too.

    Yeah, a black man may have learned blacksmithing, but his life was still shit. The life of his children was still shit. Those “skills” didn’t do jack shit, if they could even apply them? Like imagine being an uneducated recently freed slave in a society where an overwhelming amount of cunts hate you for no good reason, now imagine what a job search would be like under those conditions.

    Nothing about slavery was fucking good.
