Watched two and a half episodes of "Plur1bus" and I can already tell that show is going to create a whole new class of instant red flag social media accounts with "Carol Sturka is my soul animal" or similar in the bio

@PhoenixSerenity Lucky!
@fubar It's due to growing South East Asian population 🙂 More cultural food diversity availability from immigrants who grow cultural crops here.
Anyone hoping to use the Hastings Cutoff this week, FYI. Or bring snacks. 🤪

size is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.
cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/37870004
reddit got bad because spez (the reddit admin) restricted API access to the platform for third-party apps, such that people would be forced to use the official app or web UI, both of which display advertisement and collect user data (e.g. scroll behavior).
the reason why this happened is because reddit is a for-profit company and tries to extract money out of the userbase, at the expense of the users.
another example of a bad decision that reddit made was to push a lot of ragebait (“Am I The Asshole?”) because company shareholders want to see “engagement numbers” go up, and if somebody writes an angry reply to a post, that’s “engagement”. but it makes you angry at the stupidity of the “Asshole”, so it makes your day worse. that is another example how reddit makes money at the expense of the users.
size (number of monthly active users) is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.
we should probably get rid of the “don’t make lemmy grow, it will ruin the platform if we grow” idea.

Meanwhile other local journo's have already documented SPD blatantly defying orders not to support ICE operations.
SPD literally helped ICE conduct an illegal removal operation just earlier this year.
There's almost certainly more cases bc the kidnappings are moving faster than most local groups can fully follow.

Re-reading all the CCTV coverage this morning and this article really should body this whole idea.
Axon is literally contracted directly with ICE and CBP to provide them with data.
And yes, there are reasons to suspect that any attempt to remove a member of this administration by impeachment would probably fail, at least under the current political climate. But the process still has value. It focuses attention, puts facts on the record, and creates political and public pressure.
@mattblaze It also serves the useful purpose of forcing members of congress to have their vote on permanent, undeniable record. The lack of impeachments by Democrats in the first half of this term has allowed Republicans to have deniability that they are complicit in keeping these people in power.

Okay. I’m not a lawyer, but I’m pretty sure the purpose of an NDA is to prevent commercially sensitive information being made public, not to facilitate crimes.
Someone sat down and wrote up an NDA to be given to girls *before they even met David Walliams* (allegedly). NDAs that said they couldn’t talk to the media, lawyers, their families, their friends, or THERAPISTS.
Who the hell wrote that NDA? They had to know what they were doing. They had to understand the implications.

NEW: A Republican member of the election board in Forsyth County, Georgia, challenged dozens of midterm ballots, claiming four were cast by dead people.
ProPublica found all four are alive.
