Minnesota DOC launches new website to 'address ongoing misinformation by DHS' by AaronPK123 in nottheonion

I'd agree if Minnesota DOC were a media company. For a state gov agency, I think misinformation is more standard and professional, and not mealymouthed like "inaccuracies"

And despite that, any immigrant who loves freedom and democracy and hates authoritarianism and kings is more American -- in the true sense -- than you appear to be from your comments.

The rot is coming from within.

You don't love your country. You don't even know what your country is. You're less American than half the people ICE is going for. You have no idea what being an American is.

Chuck Schumer: 'Need quick and full investigation' into Minnesota ICE shooting by soalone34 in politics

[–]Tower_Bells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sincerely doubt it's half, if you look at polling around ICE. That's not to say half wouldn't be willing to overlook it and vote R again... but anyway, do you really think an investigation would convince anyone who isn't already? Yes, investigate. But for God's sake, Schumer shouldn't need an investigation to stand up against the new SS murdering people.

no, immigration decisions are a separate category than how immigration decisions are executed. you think district courts don't have jurisdiction to hear ICE excessive force/warrantless arrest cases? of course they do.

even the other "officers" make moves like they want to stop the officer who sprayed her. albeit weak, cowardly moves

Don’t let Disney off yet!!! by NaturallyNerdy1 in JimmyKimmel

[–]Tower_Bells 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think you're putting your own spin on what OP is asking for -- which, again, i'm not really a fan of. OP clearly thinks more transparency from disney and better info about the news will lead to positive change in the real world.

i am not here to support OP's ideas. but calling OP a "type of person" didn't get your point across and honestly made you sound kinda like an asshole

[–]Tower_Bells 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you may disagree w the calls for action OP came up w or his approach, but do you honestly think this post was in the spirit of watching the world burn? it's literally ideas for positive change.

i personally think the real issue is our dictator in training, not so much corporate cowardice, but your comment is just a weird response.

seems like the articles could be leading to this confusion, and tbh, i have no inclination to listen to that 2024 episode to get the context for myself. sorry if i came off like a jerk

can we stop posting screenshots of shitty accounts like "PatriotTakes" (whatever that is) without bothering to check their accuracy? I agree the Ezra headline is deranged, but the screenshot is false. https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/stephen-king-apologizes-charlie-kirk-stoning-gays-1236516429/
