Here is a better source. National Review isn’t a credible source.

SteveFromMySpace ,

I don’t like NR and their conservative bias is very much on their sleeve, but “isn’t a credible source” is a bit of a stretch.

They lean pretty far right and are known to use emotional sensationalism in their articles. I’d much rather get my news from AP.

SteveFromMySpace ,

I would too, they are not my first pick, but saying a source isn’t credible is a big accusation. Idk I’m probably overthinking it. When I think of not credible I think of Tucker Carlson, Fox News, Breitbart. Truly lying sources.

Num10ck ,

great point.

right wing spun but credible and mostly factual.

You’re cool to state your concerns.
The fact that you weren’t dogpiled caught my eye.

Just sayin’

SteveFromMySpace ,

Appreciate it. Unfortunately I know myself and sometimes I come off incredibly strong/hostile or I am too charitable with not a whole lot of in between. But I am really, really trying hard to take a step back these days and assess things with a little cooler head.

Lemmy dogpiles by default. Far, far worse than reddit ever did. And I’ve proven it (to myself!).

So, I try to call it out when I see it (always), but I also notice when it doesn’t happen, such as now.

SteveFromMySpace ,

I’m not sure it’s worse than Reddit lol but I feel you. Appreciate the kind words

after the fox news docs were released in the dominion lawsuit where all the anchors knew they were lying but they did it because they feared losing watchers to newsmax should be a lesson in how the audience (and modern conservatives in particular) affects the market and how having a conspiratorial fan base will necessarily result in a credibility spiral.

Honestly it should be called the “Fox Newsmax” effect, or something. So its like, yes, the national review is probably in a similar spiral.

SteveFromMySpace ,

the national review is probably in a similar spiral

I mean unless you have evidence pointing to that that’s not a fair assumption.

Awesome move from the judge.

“permanent” here means it will hold until the inevitable appeal to scRotus

Lets see what Biden’s plan to deal with them is. He’s promised to do some kind of SCOTUS reform act before the end of his term.

adarza ,

the current composition of congress makes any significant changes impossible to achieve.

best that can happen is introduction of such legislation, and their subsequent defeat or burial, this session will call-out republicans who block it–and then they get booted by voters in november in favor of those who will seek meaningful changes next year.

It’s amazing to me that someone who has the wherewithal to rise to the highest offices in the land, can also be such a blubbering insecure weak little bitch that they need to legislate against having to hear about reality. But then again, Donald fucking Trump became president and might do so again. I guess the highest offices in the land are actually pretty easy to get to after all 🤷‍

Easy if you have rich donors

And no personal ethics at all. I dont think they even know what ethics are to begin with.

Let’s not place the blame only on DeSantis. There’s a large portion of the US who would be fine with Jim Crow being a thing again. Florida voters elected him because they knew he’d do this shit

Good. Also, fuck the National Review.

SteveFromMySpace ,

Considering how most Republicans wait for one governor to pass an insane law that survives court appeals then all follow suit, it’s good to see one get so thoroughly crushed before the copycats start.
