“Individually we are weak as a single twig, but bundled together we are as a mighty fa**ot”

Unfortunately this symbolism has existed for a long time in the form of the fasces (fascis is latin for fa**ot). A symbol of authority that was heavily used by the fascists (hence the name).
Though of course it would be great if it could be repurposed to for a more positive use :)

Someone should start a shitpost bot farm to spam her with that clip for the lulz.

Nobody hates you, Valentina. Hate is reserved for effective people.

We just think it's weird that you're obsessed with other people's genitals.

What's the trick? I can't paste/insert/upload.

"Problem uploading image." Probably a permission or something, I'll find it. :)

It looks like a picture of somebody during a group dinner that they weren't ready for except it's actually a posed portrait

“Yes, I lost this election, but I’m young, beautiful, and rich as f**k,” she concluded. She lost her job at Purina dog food over her extreme rhetoric and her campaign was unable to purchase ads.

She came 6th. Its funny, but I think she was never a real candidate and hasn't learned anything

Anytime when someone needs to publicly tell everyone that they're rich, you know that they're not rich and huge assholes

I’m not attracted to men, but I’d suck a dick to stop hearing about this awful woman.

Valentina Gomez is a trash human being. Valentina Gomez is a homophobic piece of shit. Valentina Gomez lost her campaign of hate. Valentina Gomez can eat shit.

It's not just the >!removeds!< voting against her, it's the >!dykes and the trannies!< too, and I assume several boring straights.

Ok what is going on with the “removed” thing?? Is there some kind of instance-wide filter on words? I’ve seen this before.

Is it a blahaj thing? I’m so out of the loop on this lol

edit: actually sounds like in might be a Lemmy.world thing.

I see it censored too. I didn’t think Lemmy.world did that. Kind of disappointed.

Boost. I don't think it is, I know some instances replace certain words by 'removed'. What did you type? Can use letters to replace some letters so it doesn't get censored again

Voyager here (and on desktop, still seeing "removed"). I wonder if it's an instance thing on our end

Out of curiosity, in your original comment, was it the uncensored word?

That spoiler syntax doesn't work on most lemmy clients, unfortunately

There's a "proper" syntax for it, but iirc some apps only respect their own syntax and will ignore the official one or ones from other apps.

The official syntax creates a section with a little arrow to fold/unfold, rather than the traditional clickable black bar. It's this:

::: spoiler description
Text goes here
:::

and it shows up like this (assuming your app supports it):

::: spoiler description Text goes here :::

It took me way to long to figure out what the censored word was.

Oddly, me too. I'm not sure why my brain went to fat ass first when it's clearly not that.

"Unpatriotic lesbian" sounds rad as hell, some people she is trying to denigrate will instead embrace that one.

11

Either way shes the minority now, so what is she hoping to accomplish?

Hmm… for a moment I thought she’d forgotten how to spell fascist AND forgotten what it meant….

My only disappointment here is that a website called LGBTQ Nation is so aggressively cancerous with the pop-up ads. Wasn't able to get through the entire article.

(Yes, I could paste into a different browser with better defenses, but sometimes it just isn't worth the effort)

but sometimes it just isn’t worth the effort

We don't rate websites on how we can avoid their toxins but on the unmodified experience. We don't rate Netflix on the cost of the plebe tier because it's not a tier but an insult. These are the same things.

who doesn’t like her is a “fa***t.”

What silly censorship, it’s not even censoring anything because you know what it’s saying. Like if she had actually censored herself like that it would be the same message

It's not necessarily a bad thing to indicate that some things are still taboo and not normalized.

The rest of the article pretty well displays that plus the reader likely knows that

Gay --> porn is such a cringe association to make. And it's not really comfortable to shove fetishes in people's faces like this.
