@MrMonkeyMonk@dsiroker@LimitlessAI Yeah this has just been one let down/backtrack after another. Disappointing and I wish them luck but I think I’m out.
Super interesting article and a great job of putting to words something I’ve been feeling for a few years now (though especially this year) as a ux designer. I got into design to do good, but don’t feel like I get to do much of that anymore… https://t.co/wRaP9lwRHH
I try not to get angry online. But sometimes I can't help myself. I'm angry now.
Let me break it down for you.
MAGA succeeded in 2024 by bringing disparate groups together into a coalition.
One of the key issues binding that coalition was the idea that unchecked, illegal immigration is harmful. That is such a logical and reasonable premise that it created wide appeal.
But a big part of that premise was its corollary: "WE don't oppose immigration, we only oppose ILLEGAL immigration."
We said this last part over and over and over as a rebuttal to Democrats who called us "racists" and "xenophobes." It was such an effective and key rebuttal that it allowed our movement to succeed--it was that latter argument that allowed people on the fence to support things like mass deportations of illegals.
Now, all of a sudden, half of MAGA wants to say that it opposes LEGAL immigration too? An argument that was NEVER any substantial election issue?
Guess what, you just fractured the MAGA/MAHA movement and have thrown away everything you fought for. You re-opened the accusations that MAGA is racist. You chased away the supporters that made Trump's election possible.
Politics is the art of setting priorities and knowing the time and place for a discussion.
Unless you are anxious to undermine the Trump Presidency before it ever even starts, and unless you are anxious to drive the MAGA/MAHA coalition into non-existence, and unless you like the Democrat agenda for America, I advise you to table the H1B discussion.
If you push it now, you are aiding and abetting the enemy regardless of your intentions.
Yes I am quite angry at the ignorant stupidity of a lot of MAGAs right now, and I don't care if I hurt your feelings.
@MrBeast watched Squid Game, completely missed the message, and then decided he wanted to create a real life version of it (minus the killing, because legal) is crazy. Even crazier that @amazon funded it and attached their name to it. Our timeline really is going full dystopian.
@HevyApp please fix PR notifications. I’d rather not have the feature than regularly be frustrated by not getting credit for my hard work. Tried reporting this in app and that appears to be broken too:/
Very few school shooters have gotten the death penalty. Yet the U.S. is trying to charge Luigi Mangione so he gets the death penalty for killing one man. You can kill dozens of kids and get a lesser sentence because their lives don’t matter as much as a CEO’s. That’s America.
Eleven counts. The first two both invoking terrorism. The ruling class is treating killing one of their own, with the motive being related to the evils of our health care system, as a fundamentally different act than if you or I were to be murdered.
Hannah is verbally abusive and sandwiches her abuse in “I love yous”. This poor man wth. Every time I think I can’t feel worse for Nick, Hannah makes sure I do. His mother’s Catholic prayers saved him from this girl💀#LoveIsBlind#LoveIsBlind7#LoveIsBlindS7#loveisblindseason7
why do we treat self driving cars as things that can make zero mistakes whereas we give a lot of leniency to the average human driver?
why does society hold up two different standards for a solution to the same problem?
@hannnsssen@danielchapman @puresouls777 @BabyBearHS Maybe use a different/better detergent? We bought a basic mid range one a few years ago and it’s amazing. We scrape but don’t scrub anything lol. Only occasionally do I need to put a single thing back into it to rewash. Most modern dishwashers are really capable.
