yesman , in Books dumped en masse at Florida's New College, sparking controversy

There’s just no enthusiasm on the conservative side anymore. Back in the day, they’d have danced around a bonfire tossing these books in a pagan ritual of bliss. Now they just toss them in the bin. Pathetic.

PalmTreeIsBestTree , in Missouri Outlawed Abortion, and Now It’s Funding an Anti-Abortion Group That Works in Other States

Abortion is on the Ballot for Missouri. I’m going to be voting for it and I hope it passes this year.

anon6789 , in Deputies disciplined, cat shooting case closed: Sheriff

I hadn’t heard of this story before so I went back to get more info. I feel there is some very relevant details in the story. I thought this would be at a rifle range and someone just went and killed the cat, but I think the actual story is much worse.

From Bakersfield.com 29 MAR 2024

Bowen told The Californian on Friday afternoon she happened to come upon the incident while riding her bicycle along Mirror Drive shortly after 11 a.m. Wednesday. She said she looked over to the pistol range and saw the three men “stalk the cat.”

“The cat was sort of looking at them like, ‘What do you want from me,’ and it would sort of trot a little bit,” she said. “Next thing I know, they drew their pistols.”

She heard three shots she said were fired by just two of the people. One of the men did not seem to her to have been involved or “on board” with the attack, as she put it. She estimated that the shots were fired at a distance of about 7 feet.

Bowen, stated in her online post that the shooters did not kill the animal she described as a small black cat, but that the three men “watched while it writhed in pain.”

When she called out to them asking, “What are you guys doing to the cat? You just shot it?" one of the three is heard responding, “It was damaging the property.”

She said one of the people watched over the cat as it suffered, then picked it up and carried it away. Another appeared to her to bend down and recover rounds that had been fired at the animal. Bowen added that the men would not identify themselves when asked.

California law states that anyone “who maliciously and intentionally maims, mutilates, tortures, or wounds a living animal, or maliciously and intentionally kills an animal, is guilty” of a felony or misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail or a fine of not more than $20,000, or both.

Online commenters expressed outrage at the shooting, with one writing, “If they would do this to an innocent animal who knows what they do while on duty.”

tacosplease , in Soliciting Feedback for Improvements to the Media Bias Fact Checker Bot

Here’s the comment reply from when I first asked what was wrong with MBFC. Gotta say. I agree with that comment. I’m surprised more people haven’t posted similar examples here.

lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/12328918

Edit: here is the text from the linked comment.

I’m just gonna drop this here as an example:

mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-jerusalem-report/

mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-jerusalem-post/

The Jerusalem Report (Owned by Jerusalem Post) and the Jerusalem Post

This biased as shit publication is declared by MBFC as VEEEERY slightly center-right. They make almost no mention of the fact that they cherry pick aspects of the Israel war to highlight, provide only the most favorable context imaginable, yadda yadda. By no stretch of the imagination would these publications be considered unbiased as sources, yet according to MBFC they’re near perfect.

apfelwoiSchoppen , in Encrypted app used in campus protest planning deployed for DNC demonstrations
@apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world avatar

More copaganda about encryption. More copaganda about the left wanting to be heard at the most important time before a candidate is selected largely by corporate interests.

deegeese , in Majority of Israeli Jews believe prison rape suspects shouldn't face criminal charges

Prison rape is part of Israel’s genocide of Palestinians.

Makes sense that the majority of colonizers support it.

Zionism is a cancer on Judaism.

BlameThePeacock ,

A little bit of whataboutism, but

nicic.gov/…/why-americans-dont-care-about-prison-…

A majority of people almost everywhere (I’ve linked the US specifically) don’t care about prison rape.

This is not an Israel specific (or even a colonizer specific) issue.

Man that’s an unfortunate last name.

Fedizen , in Republicans ask Supreme Court to block 40,000 Arizonans from voting in November

Republicans have always objected to any kind of federal ID. Its wild to me they then use the lack of federal ID to justify their theoretical fears. The second moderates realize republicans have been gaslighting america for like 60 years the party is done:

They create humanitarian crises in venezuela then complain about immigrants.

They drive up the national debt with tax cuts for the worlds wealthiests morons and then complain about the debt.

kandoh , in Boomers are selling businesses to millennials in a generational handover

The other generations will get so sick of millenials - the last of the large generational voting blocks.

We’re just at the beginning of their reign.
