An incomplete list of reasons I block accounts:

  • Ranting about journalism rather than discussing the actual news.
  • Whining about paywalls rather than just circumventing them yourself. It’s 2024 you should know how to use an archival site by now. Don’t expect everyone to everything for you.

Got my kids back after 4 years of custody battle. They eat white rice, ramen noodles, white bread, potatoes and Kool-Aid popsicles. Anything else is far too flavorful.

What kinda loser do you have to be to not feed little kids?!

What a remarkably ignorant thing to say. You sound like the kind of ignorant, aggressively unempathetic, jerk that probably shouldn’t be winning any custody battles.

The “I’d rather live under a fascist dictatorship than vote for Biden” crowd are little better than the red-hatted morons cheering for that same fascist dictatorship.

Accused adulterer Trump who paid to keep Stormy Daniels affair secret professes ‘love’ for the Ten Commandments (www.independent.co.uk)

“I LOVE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND MANY OTHER PLACES, FOR THAT MATTER. READ IT — HOW CAN WE, AS A NATION, GO WRONG??? THIS MAY BE, IN FACT, THE FIRST MAJOR STEP IN THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION, WHICH IS DESPERATELY NEEDED, IN OUR COUNTRY. BRING BACK TTC!!! MAGA2024,” Trump wrote in the early...

Very good Mr. Trump, now can you point to the picture of the horsey?

It’s hilarious how much the Trump campaign and right wing media are panicking about this debate. They’re doing everything in their power to preemptively craft narratives to justify his poor performance. Hell, last week Trump was saying he planned to lose “on purpose.” Clown behavior.

Trump: “If I’m reelected we won’t stop at nuking the hurricanes - we’re gonna nuke the sharks too and make Jason Momoa pay for it!”

Army of red-hatted morons: “NUKE THE SHARKS! NUKE THE SHARKS! NUKE THE SHARKS!”

Shhhh they think they’ve outsmarted the shitpost. Let’s just let ‘em have this one. They could probably use the win.

That sucks. I worked with a few when I was younger and knew a couple others in high school too, and my experience was the opposite. They weren’t exactly Rhodes scholars lol, but they were open-minded, kind, and dependable colleagues. Juggalos have a reputation for being trashy, and it’s something they proudly embrace, but I’ve found them to be generally harmless. Unfortuantely, I think just about every fan base these days has to deal with its share of racist Trump supporters who steal scrap metal from construction sites for meth money…

Yep, they’re just trying to give Fox News something to distract their army of red-hatted dullards with.

That headline is golden. But boy is it depressing that this is where we’re at as a nation. And it’s all because the GOP has been taken over by fascists and their army of useful idiots in tacky red hats.

Why was Trump talking about sharks at a campaign event? (www.usatoday.com)

“It must be because of M.I.T., my relationship with M.I.T., very smart. I say, 'What would happen if the boat sank from its weight and you’re in the boat and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery is now underwater, and there’s a shark that’s approximately 10 yards over there?” Trump said. “By...

I wonder how much Commissioner Lindenbaum charges for her vote.

@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

Yeah, it’s an expression. Kinda like how you ask someone to “roll the window up” in a car and everyone knows what you mean, despite the fact that the vast majority of cars produced in the last 20 years have come with automatic windows as a standard feature. But hey, don’t let me interrupt lemmy’s favorite pastime, inanely criticizing headlines as if that actually offers anything of substance to the discussion.

ZeroCool,
@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

I’ve noticed a large percentage of Lemmy users don’t read articles, so rather than discussing the news in the comment section, they just nitpick the headline instead.

@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

The GOP will be coming for Brown v Board of Education next, and you can bet your ass Clarence Thomas and the other right wing justices will be all for it.

@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

Yes, but we’re on lemmy so you’ll have to forgive me for focusing on what’s relevant.

Schools? Oh, we won’t have any of those when the GOP is done.

Ah, yes, there’s lemmy’s second favorite hobby, whining about paywalls rather than just pasting the url into one of the numerous sites that allow you to circumvent them if you can’t view it. But hey, why do anything for yourself when you can just demand others do everything for you?

ZeroCool,
@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

Yep, lemmy isn’t even immune to it. There’s only something like 34k MAU on this side of the fediverse yet we’re still under a constant barrage of misinformation. politics@lemmy.world isn’t any better than reddit’s r/politics in that regard. The mods here, if I’m being generous with my interpretation, labor under the same misguided sense of “impartiality” that allows misinformation to thrive there.

We’ve got one user posting anti-Biden nonsense 24/7 while tossing in just enough “actual” news for plausible deniability… And it works. I don’t even have to name any names, if you’ve been on lemmy for the last year and paying attention to political subs, I guarantee you already know who I’m referring to.

ZeroCool,
@ZeroCool@vger.social avatar

Oh I did that months ago. But I’m not gonna shy away from calling out active propagandists spreading misinformation and the mods for allowing it.

Wow that’s quite the thorough list. You’ve included a bunch I’ve never even heard of. I use a combination of public SearXNG instances, DDG, and Leta (Leta acts as a proxy for Google and Brave search results and is only available for Mullvad customers.)

Jan. 12, 2021: In an interview with Politico, Haley said of Trump, “We need to acknowledge he let us down. He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.”

Everyone knows keeping quiet and doing time to protect the Boss is gonna be rewarded when you get out. It’s a standard mafia career move.

Why Speaker Mike Johnson’s trip to Trump’s trial in N.Y. mattered (www.msnbc.com)

It was a remarkable moment in modern American politics: The House speaker amplifying Trump’s defense and turning the Republican Party against the federal and state legal systems that are foundational to the U.S. government and a cornerstone of democracy. Johnson, who is second in line for the presidency, called the court...

Ya know, Raskin wasn’t on my radar until he was named the lead Impeachment manager in 2021 but that man is sharp and everytime he shows up in the news it seems like it’s because he’s not shying away from telling it exactly how it is.

lmao I’m always glad when I stumble upon a comment section like this where someone makes it abundantly clear that blocking them will be of no consequence whatsoever because they have absolutely no intention of approaching any discussion in good faith. It saves us all a little hassle, so thanks!

I would LOVE to be wrong, but sometimes that how the human scientific process works. We make a prediction THEN look at the evidence to see if we were right

A baseless prediction is of no value whatsoever. A theory with no evidence to support your claims is not worth anyone’s time or consideration. But please, continue lecturing us about the scientific method.
