I mean, it’s not wrong. I expect quite a lot of lewd and rude content as well.

Will be very neat to see the community reaction to this. To this day dooms open source engine is prolific. I imagine this will be amazing for fan and indie games

While we did dump most of our tea in boston harbor way back when, some did make it’s way through our borders since then.

Yeah at it’s best reddit is an aggregate of content from around the web and a message board.

The only thing I can think of that this makes sense for is to keep the onlyfans people who promote on reddit(or got started on gonewild) to stay on reddit. I feel like reddit is probably not trying to get more in bed with providing porn so Im curious exactly what the application could be otherwise.

Ive been enjoying pixelfed lately.

Unfortunately Ive got family who’s voted for him who at least buy into some of the BS. Ive heard the buyout as a good deal considering theyre going to fire you anyway and stuff like that.

The right wing propoganda chain is strong. From the moment reagan deregulated the airwaves to now. Christian radio feeding into am talk, am talk stroking egos while painting narratives of victimhood and then social media and the death of local newspapers absolutely drove it all up to 11. It doesnt help that while this was happening the neolibs were disinvesting in the working class, and didnt have a proper counter to it. There were virtue signalling but still very wealthy hollywood elites kinda giving some crumbs of representation in films I guess and of course smarmy personalities like bill mahr. Which of course only helped serve to reinforce enough right wing talking points to help begin the radicalization process.

It sucks because I think a lot of conservatives when you talk to them about what they actually believe you do get fairly leftest beliefs. Like I know when I talk to my dad he’ll say things sometimes that are practically radically leftist, but then he’ll twist his logic into knots to explain why thats why he voted the way he did.

I feel like if the dems didnt abandon the working class the republicans would have less fuel to burn.

I understand that propaganda went unobstructed for decades in this country before finally transitioning to social media where it amped up. The death of local reporting and trusted newspapers also helped aid this nonsense.

That said it is hard for me to comprehend how one can look at the richest man in the world being appointed in a position where he without transparency tears down government agencies(illegally I might add), and does not divest from his gigantic companies that are now being rewarded with a 400million dollar gift contract. Like how is buying 400million dollars in tesla trucks to do something that more conventional vehicles can do efficient? How is that not see immediately as blatantly corrupt?

It sucks for the people that will suffer as a result of this.

The spirit halloween trilogy

This is absolutely heartbreaking and the inevitable result of not just the repeal of roe but the active punishment of women. And people who are anti choice have this image in their head that it’s some woman who slept around, didnt feel like using a condom and at 8 months 3 weeks is trying to use an abortion in place of birth control. They believe that obviously that the law wouldnt be so cruel and sinister as to cause people to die and withhold medical care and make exceptions when it makes sense.

But then theres this:

Soon after the ruling, the Biden administration issued federal guidance reminding doctors in hospital emergency rooms they have a duty to treat pregnant patients who need to be stabilized, including by providing abortions for miscarriages.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton fought against that, arguing that following the guidance would force doctors to “commit crimes” under state law and make every hospital a “walk-in abortion clinic.” When a Dallas woman asked a court for approval to end her pregnancy because her fetus was not viable and she faced health risks if she carried it to term, Paxton fought to keep her pregnant. He argued her doctor hadn’t proved it was an emergency and threatened to prosecute anyone who helped her. “Nothing can restore the unborn child’s life that will be lost as a result,” he wrote to the court.

Genuinely an evil evil man.

I still browse reddit, honestly more than I do lemmy, but its mostly reddit old with adblock. Even on browser even though that is painful to navigate.

With properly curated subs its not so bad, but there definitely is still something missing. Also holy cow the current algorithm on reddit is trash. It used to be that the front page changed and shifted but sometimes I see the same crap on my front page for 2 days. It’s insane!

I remember watching this back then and sometimes think about the ghost children and wonder what happened to them now that the policy is lifted. Are they welcomed back as citizens or still stuck on the fringes of society as punishment for their parents having broken the rules.
