In theory, the will of the people should be the common good/best practices. The reality though is there are a certain portion of any given population with entirely selfish or hateful wishes. Those type of people tend to seek power in whatever fashion they can get and use those positions to amplify their voices trying to convince others to support them.
Autocorrect could have really changed the headline had it added an apostrophe in there.
Embassy properties as I understand them are considered functionally a piece of the country they represent. So what we have here is Americans trying to illegally enter a foreign country.
Maybe they should have let them in and then arrested and deported them to a terrorist prison. What’s good for the goose and all that.
You know an admin official is lying when their mouth is moving.
Fuck this dude with a road salt rusted brake pad…
So if desk monkeys at a fed agency can grant themselves the power of issuing warrants to authorize whatever they want, what stops me from doing the same?
There was an allegation made some while back of Piefed having "hard-coded’ blocks of certain instances. In actuality there is a default setting when you spin up an instance to defederate from some of the most aggressive instances that are known to brigade, spam, and generally act trollish. You can simple uncheck those during or after setup though, so it’s a suggestion, not a forced state.
Piefed and Lemmy are act-pub/fediverse software systems, same with Mastodon and many others. Since Lemmy and Piefed are so similar in their structure though as link aggregators that people vote and comment on you could think of them as the same network with different clients.
I switched from Lemmy to Piefed somewhere around piefed’s 1.15 version as I recall. On a technical front Piefed is a solid margin ahead in admin and usability features, at least as of when I switched. I haven’t noticed a major performance difference, but mine is a single user instance so that might be better shown at a larger scale. Lemmy was a bit easier to deploy initially since there wasn’t a need to have anything compile locally but rather just pull an image and go.
Ethically, I’m less concerned using Piefed than Lemmy. The devs of Lemmy are notoriously vocal in their support of Russia/China/Korea, and basically anything that could be considered in opposition of western liberal/progressive policies. This is troublesome since there is the potential for updates being made that help create even more aggressively divisive bubbles than we already have in many parts of the fedi. Those could be applied to any software of course, but the Lemmy devs make their stances quite visible in that regard.
He looks so disgusted. Maybe he should’ve stayed on/with the couch.
Look at this other crazy shit he said, not the plundering of the nation and trampling of civic rights…
I really wish there was an easy way his daily rants could just be tagged into boxes of actual threats vs his standard blustering bullshit.
…organized by conservative influencer
Gee, but little donnie said the people against ice where the professional agitators…
You make it sound as though the invaders who set up their country where the natives already lived are benevolent for allowing the natives to stay.
I’d rather deport ICE back to where it belongs. Antarctica had lots of ice for example…
So now the immigrants are claiming the natives are illegal…
That you should have the option to run locally without calling back to home base without a special pass from MS.
So they steal the scene evidence, refuse access to it by MN officers, and then refuse to do anything with it because the outcome was a forgone conclusion minutes after it happened when i-barbie, donnie, and vladimir futon all declared Renee a terrorist.
Nothing to see here, totally normal day in a fascist state…
Like, for a style, or making a creepy voodoo doll to do stuff to?
Reality disputes the government claim. She was shot unprovoked. WTH was she gonna do with him beside the vehicle, open the door?
Anyone that can look at the video and claim it was justified is not fit for public life.
So he’s not the head of a non existent terror organization running drugs that where promptly forgotten about as soon as he was picked up and the oil fields became the #1 thing talked about?
Gee, so if not terrorism then what fucking authority did Donnie have to do this to begin with?
Walk or it’s talk
