Well, I mean he had an entire security detail deputized by the US Marshalls…so it’s not like he’s just walking out in the open. The guy surrounds himself with sycophants and other billionaires, it’s the only way to completely isolate yourself from reality.
I don’t think he’s really made an actual public appearance since being booed on stage at that chapel show, and that was by people going to see an unfunny transphobe.
Nah, it’s just a rumor started most likely by Musk himself. Pretty sure it was a ploy to halt the Tesla stock sell offs. It started around the same time another rumor that the Tesla board was going to ask him to step down.
It’s the same trick trump was doing his last term, lie to publishers and then accuse them of not being trustworthy for printing unsubstantiated rumors.
Signal itself is not vulnerable. This article needs to correct itself. Signal is only vulnerable if the DEVICE THAT USES IT is compromised.
I think the description of vulnerability is subjective in this case. It could be that signal is inherently more vulnerable than official channels, as Signal is a private corporation that has no motivation to disclose any failures in their security.
I don’t think the article is trying to blame Signal in any way, it’s just not the proper communication channel and thus utilizing it is an inherent vulnerability no matter how secure their encryption may be.
Martin Luther King Jr and Malcom X knew that voting was not the only tool to fight oppression and were killed for it
Are you equating your criticisms to MLK and Malcolm X’s accomplishments?
been time to march to the white house again and has been for hot minute
And what exactly does your criticism have to do with marching on the fascist led white house?
Again my rebuttal to your criticism is that you didn’t offer anything but criticism to the only resistance option we currently have going for us. Criticism does not equal political organizing…
At the moment I would welcome any form of political organizing in the aims of opposing the current administration. Whether that be from Democrats, centrist Republicans , or even libertarians. I don’t care as long as you aren’t a fucking neonazi. We need a large tent opposition to oppose fascism as a popular front.
Leftist nitpicking liberal ideology only serves the aims of the fascist. Get over yourself and lock arms with anyone who is willing to stand up to a literal fascist.
naming it is enough if it is apparent that most are unaware.
Do you really think that people on Lemmy are unaware that the two party system is a problem?
I think the problem most people are having with this type of criticism is that it’s aimed at the only tool we currently have to oppose fascism, while not really giving us any other option. All while not even really being critical of the actual problem…the fascist.
The frustrating thing about my fellow leftist that most liberal minded on this site have, is that we seem to spend more time trying to fight liberalism than we do fascism. When history shows that the only real way to defeat fascist is to form a popular front with anyone who isn’t a fucking fascist.
Liberalism isn’t my preferred government choice, but I’ll make nice with anyone willing to throw hands at a fucking Nazi. We can settle our differences when the guys who want to exterminate minority groups have left the chat.
I mean you have valid points, but you’re not really offering much of a solution. I think most people will agree that the two party system has failed the people, but simply not participating in it is exactly what conservatives require to achieve their goals.
I am not a fan of hardly any Democrats, but it would be idiotic to say there’s not a stark difference between the two parties, especially at the State level.
Legality is a matter of judicial opinion and enforcement. It seems that the trump administration is perfectly fine with ignoring the former and the judicial system can’t be asked to perform the latter.
The banality of evil rears its unremarkable and familiar head once again.
Feel like this is really belittling to the VC and PAVN, the Ho Chi Minh trail is rightfully known as one of the greatest achievements of military engineering in the 20th century.
The North Vietnamese military didn’t win because America was just that incompetent, they had arguably a couple of the best generals in modern history. I mean they defended against the armies of France, America, cambodia and China within a couple decades.
I think that kinda depends on how you view morals and ethics. One could claim that a profession doesn’t define your morality…but I doubt many say that about the Nazi or Isis.
Now that’s a bit hyperbolic, but it does lend weight to the framework of the argument. Can an individual be “good” and simultaneously be supporting a system or group that is “bad”.
Now you can wholly reject the notion that the police are bastards, but that would just be a different debate, and likely a futile one. But, it would still be a stronger argument than your original.
moonlights as both an EMT and a firefighter when she’s not a cop.
If my day job is working as a corrupt politician, but I moonlight at a homeless shelter…does that cancel each other out? If a person wanted for murder stops a mugging, does he get a get out of jail free card?
She’s normally a really great person
I don’t doubt she’s a great person to you and people she cares about, but we’re not really talking about personal relationships.
Buying the dip does not mean to purchase stock anytime number goes down. It means buy when you think something other than market forces are affecting a stock that you believe will make a quick recovery.
We are not in dip territory, we are in recession territory. An old saying is don’t try and catch a falling knife. It’s better to let it hit the floor before picking it back up, and we’re still a ways from hitting the floor.
