Multiple states: "Let's literally use the force of law to ban trans people from existing."

This jackoff: "Hmmm, I just don't know if the bourgeoisie is really against trans rights! It's so hard to tell!"

I'm not going to weigh in on the defederation issue. I don't use enough .ml communities to know how this guy's views reflect in the moderation policies of the instance. But fuck him in particular.

The problem with moving to another server software is that there's a much bigger developer ecosystem around Lemmy. Other projects simply can't match that.

Like, there are multiple Lemmy clients in Google Play and F-Droid, for example. There isn't even one for PieFed in either store.

As an American, I can hardly blame the Canadians. Who would want to cross the border when doing so might get you tossed into a dark hole in El Salvador for no reason whatsoever?

It absolutely does suck for the Americans who rely on those tourist dollars, though, as well as the Canadians who lose a destination they love. I really hope we can restore sanity sooner rather than later, but I fear it would take an act of God to do so.

Infuriatingly so.

KG was right.

A lot of what I hear from social media and from friends and family that have tried them is how poor the build quality of Teslas is, how un-fun they are to drive, and how the focus on flash over practicality leads to a car that can be dangerous in an emergency situation. There are much better options even before you consider how Elon is an insane Nazi who is dismantling the government.

There's plenty of ire to go around, in my book.

Every ICE agent that follows these orders is also to blame. These people are the foot soldiers of fascism.

Yeah, it's said to have some kind of nebulous health benefits here.

It really goes back to the turn of the 20th century, when all kinds of health gurus claimed it would curb masturbation (which they blamed for a variety of ills), but nobody says that anymore.

Fuck, he's still working on injecting bleach to cure covid, isn't he?

Looks like it's just one particular Scheels that's on there. I'd guess the franchisee is a dickhead, not the overall corporation (any more than corporations are usually dickheads anyway).

My local Scheels is not on there. In fact, relatively few local businesses are, which is surprising since I live in a pretty red state (though the city is pretty purple, and only getting bluer as time goes on).

That. Trump himself is a problem since he gave a (somehow) respectable face to the movement, but he's merely a symptom. The disease is much bigger than just him.
