The Trump administration has made drastic cuts to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that threaten to impact weather forecasting (headline from four months ago)
  • yes. class consciousness is the most effective defense in culture war. it doesn’t mean ignoring it, of course.

    i would never and have never advocated for ignoring the material, social, or policy conditions that fall under the umbrella of “culture war.” and yet that’s something you made up and forced upon me with no evidence, argument, or logic. just emotions.

    check out this thread because i am done feeding this emotional energy. https://lemmy.cafe/post/19968013/12353527 notice how the conversation exactly matches all of my positive care for people living under oppression and in no way reflects your made-up men of straw about “ignoring the culture war and trans people.”

    and notice how other people in the thread are understanding, asking questions, and not calling names when there is confusion.

    e; typo there was a random “your” in there my fault

  • The Trump administration has made drastic cuts to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that threaten to impact weather forecasting (headline from four months ago)
  • Southerners are fully capable of making informed decisions, and at some point you just stop having sympathy for the ones who could choose to be better but don’t.

    There’s another confusion! I don’t know where you got the idea that this post was about sympathy for bad people when explicitly it talks about good people in the post. Super important! This is about solidarity across class lines. I would never and have never denied this and all of my comments here reflect that.

  • Perhaps what you misunderstand is the concept of intersectional disenfranchisement. If I am a Black woman, and my mother was a Black woman, and her mother was a Black woman, then statistically and historically in the U.S., only 1/3 of us had the opportunity to vote in our daughter’s best interest due to the compounded effects of anti-Black and anti-woman status quos (not to mention other factors like anti-poverty, anti-queerness, religious discrimination, migrant discrimination, abuse of the the felony system to make free labor, and many more). When I speak today, I carry not just my own voice, but the silenced ones of those who came before me, denied the right to shape the future they birthed.

    And because of that generational silencing, my daughter and I live with the consequences — in the schools we attend, the care we receive, the safety we’re afforded, and the doors still closed to us. We did not vote for this.

  • The Trump administration has made drastic cuts to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that threaten to impact weather forecasting (headline from four months ago)
  • You are right you didn’t say it doesn’t, nor would I ever shove words in your mouth like that.

    What you did say is “[your examples showing an ongoing issue between before 1920-today] are from 60 years ago” blatantly false! 2025 is today. ;)

    You act as though I railed against the notion of voter suppression

    No I act as though, under a comment affirming the dignity of the oppressed despite their separation from democratic self-determination, you started chirping about how I’m ignoring trans people or something. That’s pretty disingenuous to me, sorry not sorry.

    e:typos

  • hence they couldn’t vote for the way things are

    and still can’t. voter repression still happens. in 2025. said it before. you ignored it. brought it back up again. you called me an ass. said it a third time, and you called me bad faith.

    i gave a timeline of problems (A B C) and you ignored the most recent, most relevant, date in the timeline (C) three times. three times you ignored C. just to be clear. my point is C. the current ongoing crisis is C. C is the issue i am concerned about in making this entire post. C is proof that the progress of A and B has not come to fruition.

    thank you for your time.

    edit: seems like some people interpret “full of” as a mathematical majority which, while it may or might not be true instance to instance, isn’t my intent in posting

    feel free to swap in “has a lot of” if that’s more familiar language to you :)

    rule [i might? be spreading misinformation online]

    idk if the “lie” claim is the best language they could have used since there seems to be a few sources supporting it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_of_Winnie-the-Pooh_in_China

    that said, obligatory fuck tankies but this is a good meme and fuck ICE.

    EDIT CONTEXT: https://www.snopes.com/news/2025/06/25/norwegian-tourist-jd-vance-meme/

    ICE and CBP claim the guy was denied entry for drug use. I don’t fucking believe them personally after stories like Khaby Lame essentially being forced to self-deport after some racist MAGA kid decided personally getting him deported was a good move.

    But u know we all about honesty in this joint so

    no discourse in the comments please the answer to the discourse has already been solved by the vast majority of pride events like a decade and a half ago
