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...

Why shouldn't people who have a faith be respected?

@Nelots@lemm.ee avatar

Somebody needs to tell Trump that his religion expects him to follow the commandments, not break them. Bet he'll feel real silly for mixing that up.

Oh, I know. But the original comment you responded to said "I respect people who have faith" which is why I brought it up. I also believe faith itself is dumb and have little respect for it.

I believe this means how they met in general, not when they started dating.

Nobody said anything about realism. Realism and religion are not the only two options.

Nelots ,
@Nelots@lemm.ee avatar

Seems like I did. I don't think I'd call realism a religion, though I don't know much about the viewpoint. In what way is realism more harmful than other religions?

AI generation is getting out of hand

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as...

But then if you report something nobody should see, say CP for example, you're suddenly subjecting 20 random people into seeing it.

Also “CSAM” is a better term

I see. I had noticed people using that term instead, but I never knew why. Thanks for the info.

Correct. You wouldn't want a convicted felon as president, would you?

Instance checks out tbh.

It's been around a year since a lot of us quit Reddit, myself included. I'm happy with Lemmy, but I still feel a bit lost online since leaving the old site. Discussion?

Been thinking of making a post like this for some time, apologies if some of this is not completely relevant: this community seems more like it's about Reddit the platform/product than Reddit the social "thing", but I'm sure a lot of people have similar experiences to mine. Maybe on some instances more than others....

I haven't even bothered to subscribe to many communities. I almost exclusively browse all because there just aren't any niche interests of mine being talked about. In that sense, the gap that leaving reddit left has not yet been filled. That said, I don't particularly miss it.

The only thing that really sucks is the loss of game communities. I no longer get updates and spoilers for games I'm interested in on a forum. I've had to join like 30 different discord servers and have them all send updates to my own private server, but I no longer have a community to discuss these things with because I don't care for chatting with strangers in real time like you do on Discord. This has led me to become less interested in many games and, in some scenerios where the game is held up by an awesome community (Deep Rock Galactic for example), I've just completey stopped playing them.

With that in mind, I think I would consider my switch from Reddit to Lemmy somewhat negative, but at no fault of Lemmy. I realize I'm not exactly doing anything to help my problem, especially by only browsing all.

Correction -- Number of whistleblowers: at least 14, likely more

This whole boeing whistleblower conspiracy theory is just silly. Now, the first one very well may have been killed by them, who knows? But the second one very clearly died of natural causes. He died of a MRSA infection after developing two common infections, influenza b and then pneumonia. Why would boeing go from plainly assassinating somebody, to then trying to kill somebody with influenza b, a usually easily survivable infection for somebody in his age range? Why wouldn't they just assassinate him too? Everybody already thinks they did it, it's not like they saved any face by using such an unlikely method. And how the hell did they even manage to do it?

There is literally zero evidence whatsoever of this being an assassination, and yet half of lemmy seems to preach it like it's the obvious truth. You're all stuck in a conspiracy theory rabbit hole. This man could have been struck by lightning in broad daylight and you people would still find a way to blame it on boeing because of the circumstances.

Also, I feel like, as I'm technically defending boeing here, I need to make it clear that I believe they're a cartoonishly evil and horrible company. Fuck boeing. That doesn't make the conspiracy true.

I have three siblings. One of them has died. That's a 33% death rate. This shows that statistically, being my sibling is one of the most dangerous things you can be in the world.

100% of people that are born, die. Being born has a 100% death rate. Being born is the most deadly thing in the world.

That's not how statistics work. Your numbers are correct, your conclusion is not.

I get it. Nobody wants to actively vote for a guy supporting genocide. But they need to grow up and realize that if they can't make a good choice, they need to make the better choice, no matter how much it sucks that we're at this point.

I think Biden would please a lot more people if he just didn't pick a side. Nobody I talk to, no matter where on the political spectrum they land, likes him supporting Israel.

That explains so much. I used to play legacy console but was always confused about why I wasn't traveling as far as I should have been when going to the nether.

Tbf, you're buying an 8-10 pound box of them, which, according to the images, is more than likely at least around a dozen of them.

Still expensive, but it's somewhere in the ballpark of $10-20 per banana rather than a single $177 banana.

The idea of a minimum wage without a maximum wage is odd to me to begin with.

What the ultrarich just heard: "So you're okay with us getting rid of minimum wage, then!"

Thanks. I could not for the life of me understand the last panel because I kept misreading it as "frustratingly looking up at the clouds..." and the bit that followed just didn't make sense lol.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure if conservatives have the mental capacity to understand you're referring to them when you call them snowflakes.

On the other hand, adding a single world like "only" in there suddenly makes it completely false. Language is fun.

If literally 1/2 of humans are inherently shit it would benefit the planet if our species went extinct ASAP

I mean, all signs are pointing to this being incredibly true, regardless of how many people are good or not. I don't want us to go extinct, but it's practically undeniable at this point that it would be better for the planet.

Yes, of course.
