cybervseas , in Blood puddles, mold, tainted meat, bugs: Boar’s Head inspections are horrifying

A picture of hell but a libertarian heaven.

When people live, it’s expensive; when they die, it’s cheap.

HotsauceHurricane , in Elon Musk has voted by mail despite attacking the option ‘insane,’ records show

Man, voting by mail is the best. Never voting in person ever again.

conciselyverbose , in Texas judge decides Texas is a perfectly good venue for X to sue Media Matters

lol they heard about ads being displayed next to fucked up shit, because of randomness and whatever, needed more than one ad to be displayed to show X product next to fucked up shit, and apparently that’s deceptive because not literally every user saw that company next to that specific fucked up post.

Cool.

TwentySeven , in Reports that Capri Sun is phasing out pouches for bottles is ruining childhoods everywhere

The article doesn’t actually say they are phasing out pouches, just that they are introducing bottles.

finitebanjo OP ,

Yeah thats fair.

The outrage might even be a result of corporate marketing strategy.

Maybe I should alakazam the post?

Hawk ,

Seems they updated the article title, which now says the exact opposite of your post title.

Unsure if you can edit. Here’s the new title:

Capri Sun promises they aren’t phasing out pouches after reports of a switch to bottles ruined childhoods everywhere

ISOmorph , in Harris vows tougher approach on migration, supports weapons for Israel

because of the heavy Palestinian death toll in Gaza.

Because of the genocide in Gaza. You can call it like it is. The UN already said it’s genocide. That’s why Bibi is a wanted criminal according to the international court of justice. Because of the genocide. That the US, again, is deciding to support with weapons. Fucking disgraceful…

Moobythegoldensock , in The third-leading cause of death in US most doctors don't want you to know about

Yeah, that’s a load of crap. A 2020 meta analysis found that the numbers are 1/10 that, and 2/3 of those people are those who had less than 3 months to live. In other words, medical errors tend to “kill” people who are already dying, and the number of healthy people for whom medical errors are the primary cause of death are exceedingly low.

Reducing medical errors is important, but making up nonsense statistics to grab headlines is just going to fuel the anti-medicine rhetoric even further.

MataVatnik , in Black Trump supporter claims he was called a ‘slave’ by right-wing organization he was canvassing for
@MataVatnik@lemmy.world avatar

And now he is suing for discrimination, probably taking advantage of legislation passed by democrats

EpeeGnome ,

Yeah, “racial discrimination lawsuit” sounds like a bunch of woke Democrat talk to me.

Seriously, I do hope he wins some money off of those assholes, but I hope even more that this was a wakeup call for him about the sort of people he was affiliating with, and the sort of views he has been supporting.

    Elon also took massive subsidies for Spacex and Tesla. The only reason both companies successed. He believes it is OK for him but no one else. A very common theme for the thin skin man.

    wjrii , in ‘Fascists’: Jack White threatens to sue Trump campaign over use of music

    I know that you can’t just assume things, but I’ve always found it telling that 95% of the people who make all the beautiful, and even just amusing, art in the world all seem to be left of center in their particular countries.

    If the most sensitive among us, attuned to the human condition, almost universally trend one way, and so do the teachers and the scientists, maybe, I dunno, they’re onto something.

    I forget where I read this (Jonathan Haidt maybe?) but someone said that conservatism is focused on in-groups whereas liberalism is broader, which requires more empathy. Empathy is also very useful when creating art, which is why there are so few conservative artists and the few who do exist tend to do very literal/realistic works.

    The right has very little aesthetic. Their primary symbol looks like it took 14 seconds to make on a hat at RiteAid.

    chicagohuman ,

    The best art requires empathy

    InternetUser2012 ,

    Left = good for people

    Right = good for the really rich

    At the end of the day, the left is good people and right is full of fear and hate.

    I imagine most artist being seen as dead-weight weirdos for a regular fascist unless they already achieved their respect or\and came from the right background. Excluding the effect of what consuming and making art for decades makes to a person, the one who does it is rarely seen and appreciated as a part of the machine. Taking the funny political compass meme as a framework, we see that from a capitalistic angle good art is the one that sells, and from an authoritarian - it’s the one that serves some utilitarian purpose. These limits are too tight for self expression and they don’t inspire creativity, but reproduction and continuation of something that works in either direction. Innovation and provocation that make art get written into history books are threats to what fascism implies, and it fears it unless it’s something on Wagner or Riefenstahl level they can coopt. Artists themselves can start or become fascists easily, and channel their hatred into words and strokes, but they are mostly either too ‘normal’ to be really invested in art and got somehow remembered (see nazi punks) or too weird to fit in the world they themselves wish (see Lovecraft and his dog).

    I think its mostly that the other side is just so much More radical. I still refuse to believe half the americans would vote for Trump again after all that has happened

    masterbaexunn ,

    Never discount the religious right in the USA. They do what they are told. Zero critical thinking. None whatsoever. Cognitive dissonance be damned.

    grrgyle , in Mr.Beast Hires Elon Musk's Favorite Attorney to Fight Sociopath Claims

    I don’t think being a sociopath is illegal?

    I get the feeling that lawyers do a lot more for rich people than they do for us…

    cheers_queers ,

    no, but the things he allegedly did are extremely illegal.

    Bluefalcon , in ‘Could Have Been The Parents’: Trump Tries to Shift Blame For Campaigning At Arlington Scandal, Claims Was a ‘Setup’

    Trump " I don’t know the rules or regulations there."

    This bitch doesn’t know the rules or regulations of anything. Fucking illiterate, fat, orange stain Tupperware bowl, asshole. I hope nothing but the worse for him.

    hate2bme ,

    Just like the Dave Chappelle skit where his white friend says “I didn’t know I couldn’t do that” and gets off with a warning.

    Bluefalcon ,

    It has been a response for entitled rich white people for centuries. People already here? I claim this land for England because I feel you are a savage, never mind your advance farming, irrigation, astronomy, etc.

    skulblaka ,
    @skulblaka@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Worse than that - we’re going to steal your advanced farming, irrigation and astronomy, claim it as our own, then enslave you to work on these same farms with all the human rights afforded to an ox.

    Historically speaking, white people - and I say this as one of them myself - have gone through and really extra fucked up the entire lives of basically anyone we ever met including all other white people. On behalf of white people across all of time and space - I’m really sorry, bro, that shit was super fucked up. Some of us are working to try and make that better. Unfortunately some others of us are still working to make that worse.

    rusticus ,

    You could have saved a lot of words by just typing MAGA.

    hate2bme ,

    Where I’m from in rural Indiana it’s not even a race thing. It’s a class thing. There were no minorities where I’m from so the cops fucked with the trailer trash.

    captainWhatsHisName ,

    He just wants to run the whole country again. You probably don’t need any reading comprehension or be able to take responsibility for your own actions for that job.

    Bluefalcon ,

    He wants to suck every dictator off. Trying to suck the dic out of dictators.

    haunte ,

    Dude, while you were preparing to break the rules and regulations there was a person there explaining to you and your team that you were about to break the rules and regulations. But your goons shoved her aside and broke them anyways. Take responsibility for your actions, you pathetic clown. This man is deflection incarnate.

    InternetUser2012 ,

    It’s the dementia. Anyone that thinks he doesn’t have it or doesn’t think it’s getting worse is kidding themselves.

    Bluefalcon ,

    He’s been doing this since the 80’s. Now he is just saying it out loud.

    InternetUser2012 ,

    It’s gotten way worse. He’s always been a piece of shit asshole, but it’s clear he has a serious health issue that’s getting worse.

    Bluefalcon ,

    He needs to relax and let the reaper take the wheel.

    I don’t know if I can say I have a “favorite” part of the book. The whole thing was just horrifying. I think I spent the entire time reading it with my mouth wide open.

    And how little has changed…

    Samvega ,

    I think I spent the entire time reading it with my mouth wide open.

    As a procession of cute cartoon animals jumped in. “Eat me!!!”

    JetpackJackson ,

    Man that book freaks me out but I guess that’s a good thing

    Hugin ,

    After the book came out congress was shockingly fast to pass new laws. It turns out the plant profiled in the book had the contract for the congressional cafeteria. That’s how you get political change.
