Edgy TV shows don’t affect my beliefs that slurs are bad, and they shouldn’t affect yours either.

Welcome to Lemmy but we don’t use slurs here. The problem with CEOs isn’t that they have unspecified mental illnesses it’s that they’re evil pieces of shit

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Incel propaganda in my music appEnglish
1·26 days agoYouTubers get a constantly-decreasing cut of money from their own media, occasional donations to Patreons and buying some merch likely give them far more money than months of ad-watching.

Technology@lemmy.world•How ICE Will Spy On Protesters, And How You Can Protect Your PrivacyEnglish
5·1 month agoThis is a good idea. Maybe as small strips to sew onto clothes as well? Most of these camera systems target the face, body size and shape, and gait.

24·1 month agoReferring to the clothes specifically, if you’re wearing lots of privacy-protecting gear and nobody around you is, it will have the opposite effect and you will be targeted.
It might be better to wear less obvious stuff like the big hoodie + facemask combo at first, and convince other protestors to wear smarter clothes over time, instead of immediately turning up in reflexive wear.

World News@lemmy.world•'Minnetoba'? Some Minnesotans want to join Canada as tensions flare with Trump administrationEnglish
3·2 months agoOh don’t worry, I’m under no delusion it’s some sort of leftist utopia, it’s just that Manitoba could be FAR worse. Please keep fighting for those rights regardless of whatever laws are in place, don’t just assume it’s all settled.

World News@lemmy.world•'Minnetoba'? Some Minnesotans want to join Canada as tensions flare with Trump administrationEnglish
4·2 months agoI’m in Texas and have been looking into Manitoba, and can assure you based on their parties alone that it’s “only right-wing in the context of Canada” 100%.
I have no idea what adding Minnesota would do though, it would completely change politics in the area even if it was its own province, never mind the US actually allowing that to happen.

Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•People fight back against the leopards who ate their faces, let's help themEnglish
18·2 months agoGood on people who come (very late, granted) to realize and denounce their own stupidity, but:
- Absolution requires effort. If these people don’t actually attempt to unlearn the bigotries that led them here, then they just want to slide back into communities that are nicer and avoid consequences
- Do not financially support them. The money spent on this shitty merch is better used on their victims, there are many food banks in your community that can often triple whatever money you donate to them.

News@lemmy.world•New ‘No Kings’ marches are being planned. Here’s when they’ll happen in your city
2·2 months agoProtests are basically giant rallies of people in your area who are motivated by similar grievances as you. The protests by themselves don’t do much but you can discourse and connect with other people who attend them.

13·2 months agoBut the problem is that this reinforces their denial, which leads to them continuing to support other organizations that do the exact same things.
This isn’t a *minor distinction", this is the very thinking that let ICE grow and expand for two decades.

World News@beehaw.org•People forget that Dr. King's real life was filled with threats, violence & injuries, not speeches and "dreams."

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•[Video] Nick Fuentes does a full 180 and says "Jeffrey Epstein is cool as f*ck"

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•ICE arrested a Navajo man and dismissed all the proof he presented of his identity, claiming he faked it and that they'd "get his family next".
10·2 months agoI think it’s safe to say the literal best thing to do when confronted by ICE is to try and leave, they will just ignore any identification and it’s better to not be caught alone, have some people near you and work on cardio if you can; of course this doesn’t help much with the door-to-door shit, so having emergency+legal contacts is also very important

This is true, but to float a counterpoint: the “on stolen land” is a direct counter to white-supremacist ideas that settler-colonies such as the US are and have always been “white countries”, and those are the usual type of people calling immigrants “illegals”.
