Supreme Court Justice Alito’s Beach House Displayed ‘Appeal to Heaven’ Flag - The New York Times

I wonder if President Biden understands that Netanyahu is going to repay his continuing alliance by doing everything he can to help Trump win the election. Benjamin Netanyahu is no friend of the US, especially not the Democratic Party.

I wonder if Google realizes what a complete fucking shitstorm they’re about to unleash on the internet if Chrome suddenly stops supporting all 3rd party cookies. As they’ve promised to do in the 2nd half of 2024.

Even before Musk, Twitter under Jack Dorsey was INCREDIBLY BAD at moderation. I could cite MANY examples of ridiculous moderation fails, just from my own email archives.

If you ever tried to use Twitter’s reporting tools to get them to moderate horrific racism, stalking, outright Nazis and worse, and only received an email saying they didn’t see anything wrong with it and would take no action, you know what I’m talking about.

This interview is seriously whacked out, both the questions and Dorsey’s bizarre answers.

He has “a strategy for ending censorship forever!” lol

increasingly convinced it will take a horrific atrocity of some sort to get the mainstream journalist universe to realize what a catastrophic mistake it was to continue supporting Elon Musk.

Listening to that exchange with Trump’s lawyer about the crimes a president should be able to commit with total immunity, and he says MURDER and COUPS could be “official acts” and warrant immunity even after leaving office, and I’m getting that stuck in a really bad timeline feeling again.

Trump keeps recycling this “argument” again and again without ever apparently realizing he’s saying that Joe Biden could throw him into a deep dark dungeon and keep him there and Trump would have no escape.

It’s another case of: either Trump’s that dumb or he thinks all his marks are that dumb.

The fact that every mainstream news site is now locked behind a paywall is a real boon for the spread of misinformation, because very few right wing sites have paywalls — which means their disinfo and propaganda can spread much more easily. Paywalls are a slow motion disaster.

Elon Musk is steeped in dumbass right wing brain farts, so there’s absolutely no doubt his use of 8/8 to announce his dumbass “Robotaxi” is deliberate. He gets a lot of approval from his dumbass Nazi followers for this shit, and that’s all he gives a fuck about.

If I seem pissed off that Meta is unfairly blocking my site on their entire network and deleting any posts that linked to my site in the last 20 fucking years and dishonestly telling people their links were deleted because I’m spreading malware, it’s because I FUCKING AM PISSED OFF

How is this not libel?

Meta is telling people who’ve linked to my site that it contains malware.

This. Is. Completely. False.

I hope you’re sitting down because I have deep info to drop.

There’s no such thing as “wokeness.” This whole stupid fake controversy was made up by right wing shitheads to give them an excuse to oppress and rob people they see as their inferiors.

Getting a real “get used to fascism it really won’t be so bad” vibe from the mainstream media lately.

Called it.

There are no words for how completely crazy it is that this country is apparently unable to stop Trump from a second try at seizing power, even when he fucking announces his intentions to be a goddamned DICTATOR publicly.

The reason swatting is effective as a domestic terrorism tactic is because it assumes — correctly — that the police who respond to an anonymous call are likely to immediately resort to extreme violence if something goes wrong or wires get crossed or whatever.

When did it become common practice for journalists to tell us what a person “thinks” or “believes?”

You do not fucking know what they think or believe. All you know is what they say or do. Stop legitimizing horrible people by implying they’re honest.
