This news comes immediately after they floated the idea of embedding AI, you say?

I don’t know if I’d go as far as to call it copaganda, but it’s definitely true that it downplayed the anti-fascist satire of the original source material

The sun is blowing up

I wouldn’t call anything a clanker because I’m not a Boomer

Never argue with an idiot. The best possible outcome is that you’ll win an argument against an idiot

Again, burden of proof is on the person making the claim. Whether or not you choose to believe them, when they have provided zero sources for their claim, is up to you.

Again, specific sources are more or less irrelevant, because all sources agree. Plus, the onus isn’t on me to provide a source which debunks the claim that Android and iOS are equal in terms of vulnerability, the onus is on OP to provide a source which supports their assertion.

It was just the first one that came to hand. LOL at this source for another example: https://deepstrike.io/blog/Malware-Attacks-and-Infections-2025

That claims that Android devices are 50 times more likely to be compromised than iOS. Look at most reports from people like Kasperky & Malwarebytes and they don’t even bother to mention iOS in statistics and only occasionally mention the platform if there is a specific notable threat.

It can be argued that iOS isn’t as secure as Apple would like you to think or as a lot of Apple users do think, but it really can’t be argued that it’s equally as vulnerable as Android

Report after report finds iOS to be more secure than Android. Here’s just one example: https://www.rokform.com/blogs/rokform-blog/which-is-more-secure-iphone-or-android

There’s “not having progressive views” and then there’s “thinks it should be illegal for people of different races to get married”

More generally, it’s not that cables are bad, it’s that audiophiles have way more money than sense. I’m not exaggerating when i say that I’ve seen short speaker cables sell for £6,000. Anything more than £5 will be of exactly the same quality as the £5 cable. You could maybe argue me up to £15-20.

Vance is Thiel’s puppet. He’ll definitely be worse.

They literally released s document that had Trump talking about liking a victims “pert nipples”, then they redacted his name, then they redacted the whole thing.

“People find the right-click menu overwhelming, so we’ll reduce it from 23 options to 19 options. That’ll make it less confusing and won’t annoy the people who now need an extra click for basic functionality “

Up until basically after the last election this was essentially a two-party state. However much of a shitshow Labour is, the Tories were guaranteed to be much worse.

Also, there was a mind of unspoken assumption that human rights lawyer Keir Starmer would gradually move the party back to the left once in power, instead of spending 99% of his time trying to court the small minority of far-right voters who’d never vote Labour in a million years, which is what has actually happened.

And, unless there’s electoral reform in the next 3 years it looks like the actual far-right party will win the next election, because we’ve still got a system designed for a two-party stare in what is now really a 5-party state, meaning that Reform’s current 30% polling would see them with 100% control of the country, if the voting matched the polls.

Okay, so firstly, they start talking about “Western media”, and then only talk about US media.

It’s characterisation of the media as state media is simplistic and misses the headline - the outside influence the media has on the state. Rupert Murdoch explicitly said that he got involved with the media in the US and UK in order to influence politics. There are any number of examples of something being featured on Fox News and Trump talking about it the next day.

Here in the UK the Labour government just announced their new immigration policy. Its biggest aim is to stop people crossing the channel in small boats. The biggest opposition party, Reform’s entire platform is based around stopping small boats. The previous government’s immigration policy for more than a decade was based around stopping small boats.

Illegal immigration is a tiny fraction of immigration. People entering the country in small boats is a tiny fraction of illegal immigration. And illegal immigration itself is overcounted because there are currently no legal routes into the country for asylum seekers, making all asylum seekers illegal immigrants by definition.

So, why have politicians been forming their policy around this one inconsequential issue rather than trying to form more meaningful and effective policy? Because the front pages of the daily newspapers have had small boat stories for years. It’s deliberately been turned into an issue by the press, which has forced politicians to look like they are “doing something”.

The traffic between media and politics isn’t just one way, of course, but it’s a lot more reciprocal and complex than this empty ideological rant would have you believe. And it’s probably fair to say that the press has more influence over the state than the state has over the press, at least in the UK.

Tony Blair, for example, purposefully spent time wooing Murdoch because he knew he couldn’t get elected as Prime Minister without The Sun on side.

It’s ironic that this piece about the lies of the media is itself rather devoid of accurate reporting and is instead knowingly or unknowingly full of falsehoods in order to ideologically persuade its readers.

Okay, I’m completely lost now. You read my comment and said that it was unhelpful becuase the fact that my comment existed means that it was unnecessary for me to add my commnet to my comment?

I honestly have no clue what you’re trying to say at this point or whether you even think that stating that US elections are in danger is a good, bad, or neutral thing.

The correct word would have been “threatens”

Please fuck off. Let Tim Waltz run

Honestly? Fuck it. Corporate Dems are pushing Newsom hard; I’d love to see Kamala wrestle with being abandoned by everyone she gave up any morals for.

Ensure we have no chance of winning

I will splinter the two party system into a thousand little pieces. Mark my words.

That’s every top-level post above mine. Which suggests to you that the poster is concerned about Trump subverting or cancelling the election to finalise installing himself as a dictator?

I’ve seen no attitude in this thread which suggests that people are doing anything other than assuming that the next US presidential election will happen and be business as usual.
