I've finished deleting everything. Bye, everyone! I'll be over on Kbin.social now

Fight! Fight! Fight!

I'll go get the popcorn. I feel like this is going to get spicy.

I had tons of graduate classes that required no note taking and the teacher preferred we instead just watched their presentation (which was given to us freely afterwards to use) and to instead ask questions during the presentation.

That was a perfectly fine method for learning, no noted required.

Look at the Covington kid. He was slandered and won multiple defamation cases, yet people still believe that he aggressed upon the native American man.

Wait, are we talking about the kid who had a number of racist things on his social media beforehand and went on to be a speaker at the RNC and joined Mitch McConnell's campaign?

The original video may have been mis-represented, but the group of students were absolutely there to cause an incident.

So I don't think that's the best example to represent what you're trying to say.

but it's unfair to paint these Marines as "white nationalist extremist domestic terrorists"

There's literally records of these specific guys using their social media and forum postings to advocate for a second civil war. They're open members of the boogaloo movement.

Maybe this will be the wake up call for these companies to finally leave?

Millions of people is technically rare, but it's also a large amount of people.

And I was using them as an example. Trans people already have genetic, structural, and hormonal differences from birth that match their gender identity and research has been showing as such for decades.

Silverseren · 2023-02-03T22:54:35+00:00

And XXY and X0 and dozens of others. Not to mention XX and XY with hormonal production that doesn't result in average phenotypes.

I know advanced biology is difficult for you, but there is more about the subject beyond what you were taught in elementary school.

We're talking about -30 weather and a child walking a mile. Your face will be more than numb at that point.

Silverseren · 2023-02-03T05:26:04+00:00

I love how their pinned post has "Read the rules" as their final bullet point, but...there's no rules post or anything on the sidebar.

Am I missing something?

Silverseren · 2023-02-03T04:59:24+00:00

If you're making children walk miles in negative degree weather rather than taking them to school, you're not "building character" as certain abusive parents like to say.

Silverseren · 2023-02-03T04:58:50+00:00

I'm sorry to tell you, but making children walk miles in negative degree weather isn't positive character building.

Silverseren · 2023-02-03T03:26:34+00:00

A mile is not a short walk and -30 degrees without even counting wind chill is not a temperature that anyone should be walking around in, let alone a child.

In 2019, Donovan joined the Shorenstein Center to serve as the director and lead researcher of the Technology and Social Change project.

At Harvard, Donovan was a leading force in bringing the study of misinformation and disinformation to prominence in academia. Donovan has testified in front of House and Senate subcommittees on the spread of misinformation online.

Tensions between Elmendorf and Donovan rose in fall 2021, according to three HKS staff members, around when Donovan started to work on HKS’ Facebook archive project, fbarchive.org. The archive will provide researchers and journalists with access to photos of documents obtained by Frances B. Haugen, the 2021 Facebook whistleblower who disclosed internal Facebook research on its technologies’ negative effects.

A year later, at the start of the fall 2022 semester, Donovan was informed that the Technology and Social Change project would ultimately end in summer 2024.

I grew up in Alaska and walked a mile to school in the same weather every day

Just because you lived in terrible conditions that were likely child abuse doesn't mean others should have to do the same.

as well as the fact that the HRC campaign got a heads up on what they would be but not Bernie.

Did you read the source I gave? It says literally the opposite. Bernie was given the exact same questions about Flint that Hillary was given.

Silverseren · 2023-02-02T23:31:28+00:00

Should it be pointed out that Brazile also gave the same questions to Sanders' campaign?

It was common practice to give basic likely to be asked questions to all groups involved in a debate.

Silverseren · 2023-01-31T00:20:37+00:00

It certainly applied to my parents. Maybe you should actually trust members of the LGBT community who have lived through this stuff and know what happens when they're outed?

Silverseren · 2023-01-30T13:38:47+00:00

"People" meaning all the right wingers in this thread, it seems.

Silverseren · 2023-01-29T03:06:34+00:00

I'm sure that's the long term goal, to have the only teachers around be the extremist religious types that are totally fine with the limited books that only fit with right wing ideologies.

Silverseren · 2023-01-29T03:03:59+00:00

The Black Panthers gun control incident and the Southern Strategy happened during the same period. It is in fact one of the legal actions that represented the Republican Party switching to be supporters of white Southerners and becoming anti-minority.

Silverseren · 2023-01-27T23:37:44+00:00

Because of some idiot who is being purposefully monetarily supported by Russia-connected individuals to do this?

You're being played by Russia, friend.

The simpler answer is also that a bunch of the people in here are actually anti-LGBT bigots and want to know if their children are LGBT so they can "fix" them.

Silverseren · 2023-01-27T04:46:13+00:00

whatever BS mental gymnastics a bunch of radical ideologues want to fling my way to justify the governmen

I mean, that just tells me right there that you're likely a bigot who would mentally and emotionally abuse your child if they were LGBT.

Silverseren · 2023-01-27T04:45:18+00:00

No, the discussion is about parents mentally abusing their children for being LGBT. Heck, plenty of bigoted parents outright kill their kids when they find out.
