No, I'm sure that's a "silent majority" of users who support everything that Reddit The Company does banding together to stamp out the minority of noisy rabble-rousers. /s

Alabama Mayor Kills Self After Right-Wing Blog Outs His Cross-Dressing
Also a pastor, "shot himself in front of police during a welfare check." It also appears that his wife was aware and involved with the hobby (not with the suicide), presumably in a supporting way.
I may disagree very strongly with this guy's politics, but fuck the assholes who make this shameful.
@Poutinetown quotes from the article:
... even though it does not appear [Copeland] had taken any public positions against LGBTQ issues that could be construed as hypocritical.

GOP Secretary of State Melts Down When Asked To Explain Bid to Throw Biden Off Ballot
Ashcroft: "Are you scared of the truth?"
Sanchez: "Oh, I am not terrified of the truth at all, seems like you might be."
You need to watch those clips in the Xitter link. Sanchez is on fucking fire and does not let up.

'We're Gonna Be Up Your Ass': CNN Plays Shocking Voicemail Sent to Anti-Jordan GOP Rep's Wife
McCaul went on to call the tactics despicable and added, “If this is the level of my party, I think it’s in the gutter and we need to get out of the gutter right now.”
Hey, McCaul - you can get out of the gutter any time you want. If that is the level of your party, and you continue to carry water for them you are complicit.

The tastiest part here: Violation of the Georgia RICO Act carries a minimum five year prison term. If you are convicted of racketeering in Georgia, you are going to prison.

‘Screaming’ Court Staffer Arrested, Trump Told to Simmer Down in Dramatic NY Trial
During a break in the trial, Trump vented his anger, saying, “The government lied… They didn’t reveal all the evidence that made me totally innocent of anything that they say.”
So your defense attorneys certainly will, right? And you'll be completely exonerated, right?

Unions work. That's why the corporations don't like them.
When a company spends money to discourage collective bargaining, whether that's in production of "training" videos, or closing facilities, or punishing organizers (who are more likely to call foul on that illegal activity), it means that they think that will cost them less than bargaining with labor in good faith.
They know they're taking advantage of labor, and it costs them less to keep the bootheel on than it does to negotiate. Seize the means of production.

Is Trump disqualified for the N.H. primary? The secretary of state is seeking legal advice
14th Amendment to the US Constitution, Section 3:
Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
This does not require judicial input. The language is clear. Trump is, along with many co-defendants, disqualified from holding any civil or military office.

Coming to you soon...
People who choose not to watch ads are far more likely to not spend money based on ads. I know that when I see the same crappy ads over and over, yeah, I remember the name of the product, and I remind myself every time never to buy it. I'm more likely to buy from that seller if I don't see their ads.

Trump calls for Supreme Court to 'intercede' against Biden after third indictment
That's because Trump was trying to use the Justice Department to forward his own interests, so he assumes that any other president does/did the same thing.

House GOP will subpoena Biden family, says Republican chairman
You know what people who operate legitimate investigations don't do? They don't announce on Fox Business that they're going to subpoena the president's family, and possibly the president himself.

"It's so unfair that my own words can be written down for posterity!"
Tell me she doesn't know that just because you've edited a Wikipedia page, that the previous version still exists, and is likely to draw attention and discussion because of your edits.

how to block meta from mastodon
If Meta is running a fediverse instance, they're doing it for money. Sure, I might be able to block Meta-sourced content from reaching me, but that doesn't prevent me-sourced content from reaching Meta - where they can monetize it.
Show me how to do that, and I'm on it like white on rice.
