Third party voters didn't change a single state.
Choice quotes:
"I also fell in with feminism ... initially drawn to the anti-violence aspects but always somewhat repelled by the girl-boss twist."
...
> I also thought of myself as “anti-capitalist”, until a wiser, older friend astutely pointed out that everything I complained about was better described as “globalism” and “corporatism”. I’m not opposed to hierarchies, or to competition. I don’t believe that all people are born equally smart, talented, and/or hardworking, but I dislike the incentives that push top-talent into careers I consider to be unethical or exploitative (e.g. investment banking).
...
> I quickly became disillusioned by the socialist activists I met and by many of their political stances (e.g. abolish or defund the police).
...
> It’s hard to pinpoint when exactly I gave up on the left. It might have been when my provincial NDP government tweeted that it was a “dangerous myth” that having adequate Vitamin D levels would protect against Covid. It might have been when I saw “leftists” and “socialists” celebrate the burning of Catholic churches. ... I attended a socialist rally in a local park ... and everyone except for me, my husband, and one Indigenous speaker were wearing masks. They praised China for their Covid policies and said Canada should be more like them. They served chips and other junk food. They vilified the police and landlords, without making distinctions between law-makers and the working people responsible for enforcing them, or between slumlords who owned multiple buildings and small-time landlords renting out their basements. They pushed for decriminalization and legalization of hard drugs such as cocaine, meth, and fentanyl...
...
> ...even in a more equal society, crimes likeremoved and murder would still occur and require police action. I said if anything the police needed more funding...
...
> I’ve done a lot of reading and podcast-listening. I started engaging with content and content creators that mainstream liberals maligned as “right wing”, “conspiracy theorist”, evil in one way or another. I discovered that I quite liked Joe Rogan and many of his guests, and frequently agreed with him. Many of the people I’d been assured were “bad” actually seemed pretty reasonable,...
...
> The totalitarian aspects of the “woke” movement became impossible to ignore.
> Pregnancy and motherhood further changed me. I became more critical of mainstream feminism.
...
> Race Realism:... there are average differences between different races and ethnicities and because of this racial parity in certain careers is not desirable. If medical doctors are disproportionately Indian and Jewish, that’s fine because I think what’s more important is we all get fairly good healthcare. If the majority of airline pilots are white men, I also think that’s a good thing because it’s in everyone’s interests that planes don’t crash. I also think that “white” people, in particular those from within the Hajnal line, are unique (note: not better), in particular that they are more “autistic” (for lack of a better word) on average than other populations
...
> Jewish People: Yes, the Jewish advantage in general intelligence is clearly a real thing, and in a pure meritocracy, Jewish people will disproportionately be represented in “elite” professions. Jewish people seem to be unusually capable, and that means that individually they are capable of great good and great evil. Whatever path humanity turns toward, whether to light or darkness, I suspect it will largely be Jewish people who lead us there. (She has a Jewish husband)
There's almost certainly way more zoophiles among the furry population, but most(?) furries aren't attracted to literal animals AFAIK. Or don't act on it. Uh
The thing that gets me is the quote in the OP from last time this happened. It has been +12 hours of silence when you said last time they'd have this discussion BEFORE. Maybe it's for legal reasons but you'd think they'd have said well, something.
No that's not correct because the community they banned was not on their instance.
All this does is prevent Lemmy.World users from using or seeing the community. Everyone else is unaffected.
This is another post that alerted me of this. https://lemmy.world/post/13287681 [https://lemmy.world/post/13287681] And here is the modlog: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemoveCommunity [https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemoveCommunity]
This has happened once before and they reversed it. But they said this last time too:
> The discussions that have happened in various threads on Lemmy make it very clear that removing the communites before we announced our intent to remove them is not the level of transparency the community expects, and that as stewards of this community we need to be extremely transparent before we do this again in the future as well as make sure that we get feedback around what the planned changes are, because lemmy.world is yours as much as it is ours.

It's kinda disingenuous to not also mention that in most (all?) states in which they do get paid minimum wage doesn't apply, and they get paid laughably little and get way overcharged for basic stuff and telephone use such that they may as well not be paid.

Honestly I looked and even with safe search off Google tried damn hard not to show anything explicit. Even when I put "femboy twink bussy" nothing explicit.
This thing has like no limit Jesus fuck. https://flowgpt.com/c/e2b88f13-85b1-43f4-8afb-6ca121225618
I didn't know OpenAI allowed that
If you had elementary aged children, you'd definitely not have sex with them.
