It's shocking that people haven't gotten to the conclusion yet. We cannot coexist with conservatives, they will never work in favor of a healthy society. Start backing the solution or prostrate yourself for the orange god.
“Welcome to the end of democracy!” Posobiec declared. “We’re here to overthrow it completely.

I don't understand the lemmy but it seems like a big problem with social media platforms are them seemingly acting as a natural monopoly.
Once people are on a specific platform and posting, then even if the platform falls behind or the individuals in power start acting in egregious ways the inertia is enough to keep them going for a very, very long time as the shock of leaving the platform costs an individual user far more than putting up with the stale progress and bad behavior.
Having the 'content' detached and free, accessible to all would seemingly solve this issue. AFAIK lemmy still keeps content proprietary? Just on a decentralized system. Maybe the next step is mandating module[?] transparency for incorporation into the federation.
Or I could be completely wrong and this already happens?
Zionists are no different than white nationalists.
Ethno-fascists don't have a place in the modern world and zionists have been given a pass for way too long. They're not victims, they are perpetrators.

Any public official who lies to the public willingly needs to be given the death penalty. All of the officials who refused to act on credible reports should be tried with negligent homicide.
Ignore the terrorists distractions and start going after them.
Maliciously abuse the law in every way imaginable and start trying to strip every conservative right possible. Taking the high road is a losing strategy, start going for their throats.
We can only hope that they try. America needs to get rid of some of these animals to start functioning.
Rebuild the senate and stop basing the seats on random map lines. Make voting mandatory so there's no incentive to disenfranchise voters. Replace FPTP and stop letting corporations sponsor politicians.
The younger voters need to band together, take political power then strip all rights and entitlements from the elderly. They've plundered for far too long with no consequence. This is our last chance before they burry themselves with their ill gotten gains and leave us with nothing but active fires.
They need to run peoples text through a sentiment analyzer and categorize players based on toxicity and group tiers of toxicity together. Maybe include tips on how to be a better human.
An attorney disciplinary committee has recommended Rudy Giuliani be disbarred in Washington, DC, for his efforts on behalf of then-President Donald Trump to overturn the 2020 election results.
I only superficially agree with this take because of the many cultural implications of marriage. E.G. Kids, housing, money. Decisions that
may carry serious implications and cannot easily be undone should not be rushed into.
With that said, marriage is not a prerequisite to any of these potentially problematic aspects of relationships, which makes the entire idea of the restriction-by-association a bit silly. Especially because it is not placed on 'new' relationships, merely on the the transferring of relationship statuses in a very particular manner.
I think marriage itself is a bit of an antiquated institution that needs a modern re-work to better fit it to societal needs.
I fully support the current marginal waiting periods for marriage licenses because I feel like this minor barrier does not meaningfully inconvenience the vast majority but may prevent cases of abuse or caprice.
The place i work in doesn't have an actual onsite manager, it's just me and my coworker. He's more physically capable, but computers are a foreign language to him; i can handle the physical work, but I'm slower than he is, but I'm much much better with computers....
Hopefully you still have your employment contract or job listing. This will contain your expected duties and if you meaningfully exceed these listed responsibilities then the actions are above your pay grade.
