How do I block the tell-me-what-I-want-to-hear news domains from my feed?
I've seen a lot of these "engagement driven" articles on Lemmy from here. https://www.rawstory.com/
Daily beast. New republic. Common dreams.
Echo chambering, which helps us not at all. If you could block all mention of Musk or Keanu from Old Reddit, blocking the echo chamber headlining should be doable here as well.
They're a gagle of kids that ran after an ice cream truck all screaming for it to stop.
Now it's stopped...
But they're gonna riot because they all want the credit for it stopping and believe that means they go first.
They'll spend the whole time it's stopped arguing over who goes first, so eventually it'll drive away and none of them will get any ice cream.
That's only if there are elections in 2028
Hopefully, there will be elections in 2026.
One third of the Senate and all the Congress will be running.
Start working on getting good candidates into the primaries now.
I wish I had faith in the DNC to run candidates that can win in contested districts in 2026
And that don't come out as Republicans immediately after winning.
Should hold the same penalties as a poor person's fraud.
Flipping parties should be an immediate vote of no confidence.
They'll do what they always do, find some MAGA Lite mini-Fettermans. Because the only other people who might run are brain-dead triangulating centrists or progressives, and the corporate moneybags hate the progressives more than they hate fascists.
If 2024 taught us anything it's that we have to work if we want good candidates.
wasn't banning tiktok trump's idea to begin with?
Before he could get ByteDance to decide they need to placate him, he had to first show that he could make their lives miserable.
The cornerstone of any "protection" scheme.
Has Joyce Vance just been paying zero attention to the current Supreme Court? 6 of them have zero ethics and will rubber-stamp whatever the orange man tells them to do. I really doubt that this little bit of extra corruption will be the line in the sand that forces a corrupt shitbag like Thomas to take a stand against his master.
I don't think Tiktok should be banned... but if Trump ends up getting credit for it not being banned I am going to be ill.
Yeah, the Supreme Court is sure to restrain the corrupt madman. Don't regard all the times they didn't as precedent.
