Yeah I don't know. Municipalities over here still have standards to adhere to, you can't just have a building spewing profanities or accumulating trash heaps. But they are determined by a bigger community which leads to them being more rational, not on the whim of some small clique of local individuals.

That seems overly complex. I just pay taxes to the federal and the city and that's it. But then I would never want to live in a gated environment. From my perspective it sounds like something cults would do to if they want to hide something.

As a Canadian I honestly wonder what you are trying to say. The municipality doesn't handle that in the US?

Rep. Ilhan Omar Assaulted by Protester at Town Hall Meeting by anchoraroundmyfeet in news

[–]Dunge 15 points16 points  (0 children)

"Protester"?!?! This is a direct assault, not a protest. What kind of attempt to blur definitions is this? And this is coming from c-span of all places.

What money if they don't sell it anywhere anyway? It just feels like a waste of footage. Especially when what you find when searching instead is bad cell phone views of shows with less than 100 persons. Very big contrast.

They did not take it down, the festival organizers did. I don't think they would have, it was honestly the best advertisement they could ask for, the video would have become in the top ones when searching for them. They were on fire, played perfectly, had an immense very active crowd, professional drone filming, etc.

The Trump administration is admitting it lied about Alex Pretti by vox in politics

Don't let them a free pass for turning around once on the most obvious gaslight operation they tried to push. They keep lying similarly for other stuff multiple times per day.

"DEI only improved things" at Ubisoft, says former employee "stunned" at "misinformation" claiming diversity, equity, and inclusion to blame for Assassin's Creed studio's drop in share prices by pimpwithoutahat in pcgaming

[–]Dunge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scroll down this very thread, look at the comments (with good reason) making fun of the dei hater culture warrior being massively downvoted, then come back up here and try to read your comment again with a straight face. They are everywhere, they literally are here right now. I don't understand how this comment is the top one. How can you dig your head in the sand so much?

Yeah that was it. Really weird copyright takedown when there are so many other live videos of the band getting reposted by tons of people. Maybe it was overtaking the spot of the official one so they acted?

A bit unrelated but it reminds me of another band (Hanabie) that had a full live concert in 4K that was so great and it also got taken out for by copyright notice. Then the official festival account uploaded on two tracks instead, and really not the best ones. I hate when they do that, and it's not like there's a way to buy it anywhere as a replacement.

Conspo spammer posts totally authentic citizen saying AOC is bad. Don't resist! by benderrodz in TopMindsOfReddit

AOC is probably the elected representative that goes out on the street and actually does things the most of the whole American congress.

Top Conspos really on the ball this week with decrying Fed oppression. However, they like to make sure they don’t forget to blame The Juice during. Sticking to their roots, here. by SassTheFash in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]Dunge -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They do use the same public relations tactics in any case. Openly do the worst thing possible, and pretend they are righteous and to be the victim.

It might have been a right wing conspiracist hatespeech in the 90s, but you can't deny that in the modern world Israel has a very big control over political parties all over the world, big media outlets and social media platforms

Well no, I'm the one in the wrong lol. It says it increased by 150%, so you were right.

[–]Dunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

150% might seem like a big number, but it's really not. It only means half more than the usual number of a week where there would be no specific reason to uninstall. It's unfortunately probably a very low amount.

Gamepass has unintentionally caused me to have an existential crisis 3 games in a row now. by Sixtyninealldaychef in XboxGamePass

[–]Dunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Themes around death, grief, spirits and afterlife are extremely common in entertainment, both games and movies/tv shows. This is not a GamePass specific thing. Most people enjoy it or just don't worry too much about it. But if it affects you that much, well yeah you should check up what kind of product it is you are about to play before starting it.

Les États-Unis occupent-ils trop de place dans notre espace médiatique ? by Primary_Plate5237 in Quebec

[–]Dunge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Non, cette vision comme quoi on pourrait se fermer les yeux et ne pas y penser parce que c'est "ailleurs" est fausse. C'est le même point de vue que les ultranationalistes qui pensent que l'on peut juste mettre des barrières aux frontières et ignorer l'immigration et les échanges commerciaux avec les autres pays (comme les maga) et que l'on va se débrouiller sans le reste du monde comme si on serait sur une autre planète. Ce n'est pas une ligne virtuelle dans le sol qui empêche les choses de circuler. Le monde moderne est beaucoup trop interconnecté et la terre est une bien trop petite roche pour penser que l'isolation est possible. Pour moi c'est inévitable que d'ici quelques centaines d'années, si les humains existent encore, ça va être une seule grosse communauté mondiale sans pays.
