Blame the cops. At this rate working these jobs you gotta know you're scum. They forfeit their value

10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
What an absolutely dystopian future we're in.
Reporter in video describes the scene like nothing very interesting is happening, like it's all perfectly normal and mundane to zip-tie the hands of people in wheelchairs behind their back or pulled into unnatural and painful-looking positions, all the while repeating the phrase "big beautiful bill" over and over with a straight face. Our "news media" is nothing but propaganda and apologia for the regime.
Whoo boy, looks like the .world mods are enforcing silent compliance with fascist brutality again, thats a lot of highly upvoted deleted comments.
One of these days they'll suck the boot so far down their throats they'll asphyxiatiate, but at least they'll pass with joyful tears in their eyes.
Whenever I see "Removed by mod" on a .world community, I know it probably said something I agree with. News communities shouldn't be hosted there.
Maybe, but people need to learn to speak in plausible deniability. You can check the user's moderation history to see what they said. Fascists were able to advance their ideas without getting shutdown with indirect speak and double talk. Maybe we need to learn the same.
My comment was oblique; I agreed with an historical quote then made a LOTR reference. No overt calls for violence. Still removed.
e: Please check my moderation history to see what I said. I was the 3rd comment in that thread.
They were talking about watering the tree of liberty. I'm sure you can find the correct quote and infer who was being referenced.
Whenever I see "Removed by mod" I check the mod log to see what was said. Its one of the best ways to get me to read and up/down vote something.
It needs a lot of watering.
Are there recommended news subs that aren't hosted on .world?
!news@beehaw.org has lots of subscribers.
(e: ~23k)
Appreciate it! Subscription pending.
Wow does Donald Trump suck ass.
And people voted enthusiastically for this clown.
The Police are neither serving nor protecting. Fuck the fascists.
They’re serving and protecting the billionaires.
Fucking semantics 🤦♂
Just like Jesus intended.
I want a bunch of protesters dressed like Jesus to get out there. Make these pigs show thrir true colors
What the actual fuck is going on
Consequences of the last election.
As a disabled and queer woman, 3 categories that are now under attack, this makes me very angry. I’ll just say [removed].
Despicable.
