TheBigBrother , in Woman recalls alleged sexual abuse at age 3 in Michigan church, lawsuit says

I wouldn’t be surprised if she only want to get easy money.

forrgott ,

So you’re saying the statistically less likely option is the one you think is most likely to have been the case?

Not only is this kind of view dangerous and prejudiced, it is quite simply not supported by the data.

    I hope people dont believe you the next time you claim that something deplorable happened to you.

    Then you will likely argue that people should start bybassuming you might be telling the truth and look at evidence and investigate the case before determining that you were telling the truth or lying.

    Your tendency to think a woman is lying for money when making claims of rape is the problem women face today. And have always faced, for that matter.

    We dont shoot first and ask questions later. If she is lying, then it will come out when scrutinised. If she isnt lying then its a damn good thing we didn’t just brush her away isnt it…

    sorrybookbroke , in A teen was falling asleep during a courtroom field trip. She ended up in cuffs and jail clothes

    Don’t worry guys, the judge offered to be that girl’s mentor. Asked her parents and all, so he sees no problem with this usage of power. You can absolutely trust him to be alone with a child and “teach her right”

    Reverendender ,

    I was so worried!

    Dead_or_Alive ,

    That’s the most infuriating part of this story for me. If a judge did that to my child and then offered to mentor them, I’d be redoubling my effort to get them disbarred or worse.

    mozz OP , in Columbia University president resigns after Gaza protests turmoil
    @mozz@mbin.grits.dev avatar

    In an email to students and faculty on Wednesday, Ms Shafik wrote that she has overseen a "period of turmoil where it has been difficult to overcome divergent views across our community".

    Yeah that's the most essential part of running a university, is you gotta overcome any divergent views

    "This period has taken a considerable toll on my family, as it has for others in our community."

    Imagine if they were in pieces, in a rubble strewn ditch somewhere. Or buried under a bunch of concrete. But yeah having your decisions criticized must be tough too.

    “It has been distressing - for the community, for me as president and on a personal level - to find myself, colleagues, and students the subject of threats and abuse.”

    Yeah I mean imagine if the police came up and tackled and pepper sprayed you

    That would certainly be distressing if that had happened

    Lady: NONE OF THIS IS ABOUT YOU. It wasn't back when it was happening, and it still isn't, now.

    eskimofry , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

    Rules for not losing election*:

    1. Don’t insult the intelligence of your voters by calling them double haters.
    2. Don’t insult the intelligence of your voters by pretending that they won’t remember that you supported a genocidal maniac. No, the opposition being worse doesn’t excuse your depravity.
    3. Don’t insult the intelligence of your voters by beating them with the stick of facism. They already understand what’s on the line. Debating online is different from voting.

    *Does not apply to conservatives who worship Trump

    newnton ,

    I very much don’t think your average person understands the threat of fascism or what’s on the line, I feel like that belief comes from being in a left leaning echo chamber.

    Obviously anecdotal but the vast majority of people I know are not great about consuming news, are not politically active, and don’t believe this election will have the deep consequences that I do.

    Viking_Hippie ,

    Your first paragraph doesn’t really make sense as those on the left tend to be the most keenly aware of the dangers of fascism, since

    a) First they came for LGBTQ+ people (which was left out of the poem since it was written by a conservative priest who was fine with persecution of THEM) and then they came for us

    b) it’s always us that end up having to fight fascists alone since the liberals try to negotiate with them (or stay out of it at first and then join them like they did in Italy with Mussolini) and the others on the far right try to become their allies

    Unless you consider Neoliberals left leaning. In which case you’re MORE wrong, but your logic is more consistent.

    newnton ,

    I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to say but what I meant is that I agree people on the left are most keenly aware of the dangers of fascism and if you’re surrounded by mostly them (aka in a left leaning echo chamber) then you’ll believe that most people are aware of the threat and take it seriously.

    Unfortunately in my experience most people outside of the left (which is most people in this country) don’t share that awareness and therefore do not take the threat as seriously as they should

    vga ,

    *Does not apply to conservatives who worship Trump

    As a purely strategical choice, I would say that insulting their intelligence won’t help. However right it would be.

    scytale , in Biggest US grocery chain investigated over Uber-style surge pricing

    TIL Kroger is the biggest supermarket chain in the US. I thought it would be Walmart.

    catloaf ,

    I think most Walmarts don’t really sell groceries. Last time I lived near one, it didn’t have any produce, which is really the whole point of a grocery store.

    Didn’t Kroger just buy another chain, though? That might have been what made them the biggest.

    cheers_queers ,

    every Walmart I’ve been to has a big grocery section

    chemical_cutthroat ,
    @chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

    I think those are the “Superstores.” I know in my tiny-ass hometown we had a regular Wal-Mart that was basically just a K-Mart.

    eeltech ,

    Its getting harder and harder to find a regular walmart anymore here in Texas. They seem to be all Supercenters or Neighborhood Markets (only groceries)

    I miss my blue light special at KMart 🥲

    Not yet. They are trying to merge with Albertsons which owns lots of local stores like Jewel Osco and Safeway. But they need the merger to be approved by the FDA before it can go through. Their case is supposed to be heard early next year. Let’s hope it doesn’t go through.

    coffeeffoc ,

    Wouldn’t that be the Federal Trade Commission to make that determination?

    You’re probably right, but I was tired last night when I posted this.

    The div1 walmarts without a grocery are mostly phased out I thought? There are only supercenters (general store + grocery) and neighborhood markets (grocery only) in the adjacent states to me.

    TrickDacy ,

    I haven’t seen a Walmart since like 1995 that didn’t have a fuck ton of groceries, including produce

    girlfreddy ,
    @girlfreddy@lemmy.ca avatar

    Walmart has store classifications which govern how they are built according to the demographics of the area they serve, ie: population, average income, etc.

    Mbourgon ,

    They are trying to buy Albertson’s. Which sucks since those are the two closest to me and one is far better than the other.

    PalmTreeIsBestTree ,

    Neighborhood Walmarts are essentially a grocery store. So they do have dedicated grocery stores.

    slumlordthanatos ,

    Walmart is a retailer, because they sell basically everything, while Kroger only sells groceries. I think that’s the distinction they’re making.

    humorlessrepost ,

    My local Kroger sells clothes, has dressing rooms, has a pharmacy with a clinic, an attached gas station, and has a decent home goods section.
