That's Mr. Comrade Rogers to you, bucko!

  • Why don't you go act like a cop somewhere else? Maybe instead of policing people's Lemmy behavior you should, idk, do something useful with your time?

    Lemmy supports crossposting. If you don't like it, go take it up with the devs?

  • Actually it's a crosspost, and the article is linked in the original post.

  • Ah, sorry about that! Didn't think about it but it makes sense! Fixed!

  • /whoosh

  • Is there a missing /s here? I am surrounded by libs IRL so I legit can't tell.

  • 100%

  • Ooooo, more political theater by the controlled opposition to deceive the proles and perpetuate the illusion of choice in order to prop up the regime of liberal-fascist collaboration.

  • Oooo, link? This is going to all my lib friends.

  • Meh.

    Distinctions without differences IMO.

  • "lawless bunch of thugs with no rules and total impunity" is the definition of "police".

    Every point you've tried to make can be made without asking people to pretend that the "regular" police haven't committed the same atrocities time and time again.

    Pretending that ICE is uniquely different from other kinds of police damages the movement for police abolition.

  • This information could be presented as a bulleted list that takes <10s to read. I don't need or want a video of it.

  • What are you talking about?

    Their vests say "POLICE" right on 'em.

    Did you mean they're not local police, maybe?

    If it looks like a pig, acts like a pig, and smells like a pig, it's probably a pig!

  • I had a feeling this piece would be pretty milquetoast, but goddamn.

  • It sure seems like it sometimes 🤣

  • Non sequitir.

    The presence of an IBC tote would imply the presence of some equipment necessary to move it (at least a pallet jack, possibly a forklift), maybe.

    However, the inverse does not follow: absence of a tote does not imply the absence of the equipment needed to move one. The presence or absence of the equipment is logically independent of the absence of the equipment (even though it would be be implied by the presence of the equipment).

    This is called denying the antecedent. The conditional does not imply the inverse. In symbolic terms:

    Conditional: p → qInverse: ¬p → ¬q

    (p → q) → (¬p → ¬q) is false.

    If you're going to make claims on the Internet, it's worth learning at least a little propositional logic.

  • Document specifically states 6 55-gal drums.

  • You know there is a difference between the voiced and unvoiced dental fricatives, right? The voiced was represented with "thorn", while the unvoiced was represented with the letter "eth". They do contrast phonemically sometimes, so if you're going to bother using thorn, you might consider using eth too.
