A German foundation has said it will no longer be awarding a prize for political thinking to a leading Russian-American journalist after criticizing as “unacceptable” a recent essay by the writer in which they made a comparison between Gaza and a Jewish ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe.
America supports whoever we think will benefit us the most geopolitically lol. Israel is a centerpiece in the MENA which can't really be ignored for how much pressure they put on their neighbors.
I love the hypocrisy mic drop at the end, but damn does it suck to know Republicans just don't care about it. And with 6 of them sitting on the supreme court, I see no reason why they wouldn't just meddle in state elections this time, then go right back to saying they can't help with maps lol.
There is precedent for it acting quickly in an election dispute, as it did during Bush v. Gore in 2000 — but its reputation took a hit after it was perceived as meddling in the outcome. And, he adds, it could decline to intervene at all, as it did in several cases related to election procedures ahead of 2020.
Rural neighbors. Even worse. Cowshit, ag runoff ruining our waterways, heavy machinery blocking streets, Trump flags inside every house and old boys racism everywhere the moment you're 'in' with them.
Instead of loud neighbors you have to deal with white trash family fights and drunk driving everywhere. Meanwhile everyone has a chip on their shoulder about city and suburban people ruining their world somehow yet they never participate in any of it lmfao.
On a real note for people with extra floaty turds. Just get 1-3 plys of toilet paper over it. Causes more drag from the water which actually gives it enough force to get around the u bend. Not on top of each other though. Like long shitachute. Not the WW2 army kind.
Take it from someone who has dense turds in a house full of floaters lmfao. Yes, you did flush. I'm still staring at half your dookie kid lol. There's few things worse than going to the bathroom and finding your gross large turd floating like a fucking stinkberg to my finally get to take a shit Titanic.
Just imagine someone finding it and putting it in a museum. His knob would be pristinely glossy like all the other statues with tits or other grabby parts lol.
Too many people think growing shit also takes a lot of effort. Nah, literally just plant shit, weed once, then wait. You literally don't even have to water in most areas lol.
People think gardening or farming takes a lot of effort. It does if you want a pretty little area that's more eye pleasing. But if you just want food? Put seeds in. Wait. Food lol. Might not be the greatest harvest but any seed you'd buy at a store is hearty as fuck now.
Edit: Holy shit, yes guys. People on the internet live in the desert and even Antarctica too. My comment wasn't meant for you contrarian buttwipes lol. It was meant for anyone who doesn't live in a hellhole and has access to a little land lol. And even in those hellholes and places with shitty soil, it's just because you're trying to grow shit not meant for there lol.
I think that every day until I realize 1/3 of the population would still vote for him without a second thought. It's been far beyond sad and pitiable for years now.
Now it's simply malicious and a direct threat to every single one of our lives. The other 2/3rds need to start treating it as such.
Not only that but Trump had the ability to really cement himself as one of the greatest economists ever during covid by riding on a Democrat's economy pre-tax cuts... He got ahead of Covid pushing 'HIS' vaccine through... then did a complete fucking 180 killing by pandering to an ever growing, deluded, extremist base.
Instead an extra ~319,000 people died when this was published in May, 2022... due to vaccine hesitancy, lies, and Republussian propaganda lol.
It's wild seeing the mental gymnastics they have to go through when Democrats end up agreeing with them on something. Meanwhile Biden has done so much work on one of the most evenly split governments in United States History by working with a whopping ~15? sane republicans across the aisle.
I wonder if there are demographics by IP already? TBH most of the threads I've been in have felt very US Centric. I also came with the great reddit migration too though.
So what you're saying is more popular opinions are probably more popular with the public... Hmmm.
Also, if you cared about karma on reddit and you care about karma on Lemmy... And both places hate republican policy... Maybe that's a sign that their policies are literal fascist nationalist Christian shit that people don't like. If you feel like your opinion is dragged through the mud everywhere but your dark corners and echo chambers... Maybe it belongs there lol.
What people are experiencing in the lifting of civil discussion because democrats know better now. Republicans don't care about civil discussion and they weaponize hypocrisy like priests weaponize their dicks on choir boys mouths. Lol.
It seems like you're all for lab grown meat and killing off the livestock for meat industry correct? Fish and other animals would be similar? Anything with a nervous system and at least some semblance of intelligence or self preservation that probably isn't a plant? With eventually lab grown plants or nutrients that aren't used through forced reproduction or killing offspring since they're alive, but not sapient.
How do you see birth control working in that future? With zero abortions, you'd have to have something like men and women sterilized at adolescence then allowed conceiving rights once they hit an arbitrary age like 18? Free condoms, medical procedures, or other variations of birth control in every home or at a free doctor for everybody under 18?

I can’t really think of a reason for that as Reddit is hated somewhat equally by “both” sides of the spectrum. It’s just something I find interesting.
