How elderly dementia patients are unwittingly fueling political campaigns
  • You mean to tell me electoral "fundraising" that has become indistinguishable from internet scams are exploiting the population most susceptible to scams? shocked-pikachu

  • ["There can be only one" news] Vendors selling Trump merchandise fight with each other before a Trump rally in Michigan. [More in body]
  • I don't fully know why (considering everything going on in the world that I care about more) but this fucking depresses me greatly sadness such a gross display

  • Brian Mast was a volunteer for the IDF but don't think he has citizenship. Possible that they were implying pseudo-citizenship with the quotations but shrug-outta-hecks

  • If AI went sentient, what would it be in class terms?
  • different category. The proletariat is the class of people that lives off of the sale of its labour power whereas slaves are entirely commodified class of people owned and wholly exploited by a non-producing upper class.

    I am genuinely confused by hexbear's opinion on the Ukraine war - Lemmy.World
  • Agreed. I think it would be fair to call it revanchist but I don't think it really checks the boxes for an ethno-nationalist war

  • Did Bashar Al Assad gas his own people, or is that total bullshit?
  • I'm sure that someone else might have a better answer but likely bullshit. This was sort of the bombshell article on it. Theodore Postol is a leading expert on these sort of weapons systems, and he makes arguments that haven't been meaningfully disputed from what I've read.

  • Yeah cooperation definitely occurs regardless. I meant that the university cops are also just the actual local cops who are more or less just taking more hours by working at the university.

  • As far as I'm aware, there's a lot of overlap of university cops also working for the local PD in some capacity as well.

  • Macklemore's song for Gaza! (Hind's hall)
  • I've been waiting for Kendrick to say something about Palestine. I'm glad that at least someone did. Hip hop has needed a bigger voice putting something like this out imo.

  • Biden awards Presidential Medal of Freedom to Nancy Pelosi, Al Gore, Michelle Yeoh and more
  • "After winning the popular vote, he accepted the outcome of a disputed presidential election for the sake of unity and trust in our institutions," Biden said. "That to me was amazing, what you did Al."

    Hilarious. Maybe the funniest possible thing he could award Gore for.

  • Biden condemns university antiwar protests, says 'Order must prevail'
  • Bringing out the Clintonian classics. Love to see the concept of "order" to justify draconian actions of the state... again.

    Also this:

    In his remarks Thursday, Biden also criticized “those who rush in to score political points” from the protests, saying that “this isn’t a moment for politics, it’s a moment for clarity.”

    WHEN IS IT TIME FOR POLITICS YOU FUCKING MONSTER? God fucking damn it. Genocide isn't political! Crushing protests isn't political! Don't force the president to do politics, it's not his job! dem

  • Bad news people
  • Lowkey agree, but I also don't know how worth it the fight it is so I tend not to push back on it as there are worse ways the rhetoric could manifest. shrug-outta-hecks

    Luckily it seems that Elon has overtaken the zuck in terms of hatred out of his pure incompetence so... shrug-outta-hecks

  • Which do you choose?
  • I'm a simple person. All I want is a massive fluffy fire dog to cuddle that will incinerate my enemies.

  • “Look, I mean, this is a guy who wants to take us back,” Biden said of Trump. “He wants to take us back on Roe v. Wade, he wants to take us back on a whole range of issues that are – 50, 60 years, they’ve been solid American positions.”
