Absolutely bonkers lmao

Of course imminent domain exists, silly. Yes, the government can force sales. Also squatters can be forcefully evicted through due process by the owner. That’s now what’s happening here. I can’t even begin to understand why it’s relevant.

Protecting the land means not letting it become part of the failed Wall, and not allowing building/dumping on it. As Elon has dumped his shit in their land, CaH is suing. Thats exactly what protecting the land is, buddy.

You seem to have a chub for Elon, or a chip against CaH. Not sure which, but you are waaaay off base lol

Just buying land gives complete legal ownership and stewardship to the owner. They’re not obligated to do shit with it, and they bought it exactly so they could do nothing with it: keep it natural and pristine.

You seem to weirdly be invested in Cards Against Humanity being in the wrong, with the weird takes. They did exactly what they were expected to do- keep it pristine. What gives you any impression at all there were different expectations? Just flat out wrong.

Your whole comment reads like one of Musk’s alt accounts trying to rub defense lol. If you expressed any semblance of understanding why and how CAH acquired the land before you began with “this isn’t the first time they failed expectations, why didn’t they build anything?!,” maybe you’d get better replies

Ah shit! Guilty af

Or, we could just accept the simple fact that if the candidates change, so too does the prediction. He made his predictions based on the options available at the time.

Kinda shortsided to consider that an L.

I mean, isn’t that the whole mentality of Techbros? We want copyright followed with AI- it’s one of the two biggest issues with it.

That fair amount of irrigation was created by the Hohokam, who also abandoned it like sane people.

I’ll never understand how settlers moving out west to the beauty and resources of the coast, got to a blank desert and decided to ”This is the spot!”

No lumber, fucking hot, and natural water is scarce. WTF

It’s like that, but even worse. This fuckwit uses the culture war to stoke violence and hate. He wields it as a fascist weapon.

So it’s a bit more nefarious than simply being a hypocrite.

So, the scandal isn’t that he does it, it’s that he is extremely vocally against it and legislates against it. The “gotcha” isn’t shaming him for enjoying himself, it’s scolding him for demonizing natural behavior while doing it himself.

Nobody would give a single flying fuck what he did if he minded his own goddam business.

Guerrilla style social media activism suffers when the platform in question actively bans for reporting facts or algorithmically hides progressive voices and trends.

It also benefits the very fascists we are attempting to address by driving engagement on their platform. But no group at this time can be sure that they won’t be banned, (or worse, get Twat by Elon and end up receiving death threats) tomorrow. It’s also very risky to rely on such a platform.

But more pragmatically, these groups won’t stop organizing. The general public will also be migrating from Deadbirdsite.They’ll all use the next best tool and still persist, so there’s no real disadvantage there. If the effort can’t exist outside of Twitter, it isn’t really trying.

I had to verify myself. It’s even more batshit with more context. After that the bing bongs and weird gesticulations he says “you know what that is, right?” wtf no we have no idea wtf that is lmao

The usefulness of Twitter ended when Musk took over. This is absolutely a new positive thing, as it’s better to use alternatives as opposed to the fascist website. There are lots of communication alternatives available, so it’s not like people won’t have a way to communicate.

Don’t forget that he excels at cheating on wives, bankrupting businesses, and stealing money from cancer charities (among other notable achievements)

There’s a famous saying about how a few bad apples spoil the bunch. When it’s 97% bad apples, imagine how gross the 3% remaining are.

As well, if those 3% aren’t actively holding the 97% accountable, they are a part of the problem.

Defederation and limiting posting for certain users on Reddit are in no way ill natured. To suggest it is, is no different than Elon Musk’s “freedom of speech absolutism.” People who go out of their way to personally start a community have the right to draw a line (not including protected classes) as to who can join their party.

You are seeing the consequences of engaging with the worst of Reddit.

I mean, it’s Reddit. What did you expect? This has been status quo there for years. Maybe don’t use it, or accept the that Spez is a piece of shit and each community can decide it doesn’t want crossover from other communities.

But really, is blocking people who have activity in another sub so different from a mastodon instance defederating from another instance? Just in a shitty Reddit way?

That poor crew and coast 😢

Yet

I’m a bit amused to have come up with a new Trump insult after so many years. Run with it!

I’m not supporting anyone I use whatever platform I like

Newsflash: using a platform increases engagement.

What you do is, indeed, up to you. But don’t pretend continuing to use Reddit or birdsite or whatever doesn’t benefit them and proliferate the exact thing you are seeking an alternative for.

You ask if I’m here for entertainment? Yep. Because I don’t value entertainment over supporting someone like Spez and Google AI.
