oic. i thought you meant that there was evidence on making a decision and it didn’t seem that way given the un’s lack of action; the icc dragging their feet; and the administration continuing to pretend that it’s not happening. despite the neeful life saving urgency, it’s pretty clear that’s not going to happen anytime soon even though a blind man could see it from the evidence you’ve just shared alone.
There’s lots of LGBTQ+ and FOSS (I wonder why lol).
the lemmyverse was created by tankies as a leftists social media platform; it moved to center right and octupled in users when reddit went full corporate.
there’s a lot of overlap between lgbtq and left leaning views as well as left leaning views and foss enthusiasts.
hi. are you me? lol
I’m an Aussie in my early-mid 30s. I’ve been living in the USA for the past 11 years. I’ve been a software developer, mostly focusing on web development, since the late 90s personally and since the mid 2000s professionally.
so your birth year would be somewhere between 1987 to 1993; you started professional web development when you were 14 to 20 years old? you moved to the us somewhere between 20 and 26 years old?
i didn’t even start dating until i was 27 and my career at 26 while my first website was at 16 years old and i never truly left the country; you’re either very impressive or lucky af! i envy you! ;)
Until someone makes a decision that Israel are actually committing genocide (and in my opinion based on the evidence I’ve observed, this seems very likely)
what evidence are you referring to?
Maybe he just doesn’t have as much to lose as the rest of us…
i’ve lost my livelihood 3x because of biden’s anti-lgbt votes & anti-lgbt support; with #4 on the way; and will suffer more under trump as a non-white non-hetero non-christian; i still think macklemore is in the right here.
i agree and like @archomrade i too have been depressed at the large number of center-right users on a platform built by tankies for all leftists.
as a fellow reddit refugee i’ve been wondering if the reddit refugees were the reason for it and, now that someone else agrees, i know i’m part of the problem.
… every trans person, every immigrant … anyone who isn’t a white, cishet, Christian man is at risk of violence or death.
this rings so hollow because i lived as a target of biden’s votes & support of laws against lgbt people for decades and biden opportunistically switched sides LONG after public opinion changed and he is still literally imprisoning immigrants fleeing persecution like the person who i built a life with before he got deported also because of biden’s votes.
it sucked trying to make a life during that time and it’ll suck again under trump, but i’ll still be alive to try; which is much better than the people in gaza will get either way.
he’s a smart guy so he’s aware that no one will do this.
i used to like bernie but i’m learning that he likes to talk the talk, but doesn’t walk the walk (atleast not anymore). i regret donating to him, but part of me feels good that i did because it means that i can be just as clueless and mis/ill-informed as the people who support biden or trump.
The next group of MAGA idiots who show up to pull a Jan 6 2.0 will get turned away by authorities actually equipped to handle them.
i wonder if they’ll get smarter w 2.0 and go after unguarded but key pieces of infrastructure like some did in the 2022 elections with power stations.
Even other GOP members were pissed about the insurrection and were targeted by insurrectionists.
and then turned around and acted like it was nbd
all the downvotes this comment is getting is making me wonder if all or most of the genocides in the past were allowed to happen because it was politically easier to ignore them during their time for some other higher priority goal.
if that’s true, it speaks volumes that we no longer remember what that other goal is but continue to perpetuate genocides while simultaneously abhorring it and that it feels a lot like other bizarre social practices like war or prejudices were we also perpetuate them while also simultaneously abhor them.
if it’s not done correctly; it would guarantee that our current system is locked in forever
i agree, but it feels like only the young to say this and i’m wondering if i need to change my mind set since i’m now middle aged.
you’re preaching to the choir; i’ve also had the bad luck of experiencing my government shit on me and having others refusie the believe it happened (like those on the fediverse are doing to you rn) and i get that reminder of it every time someone says that biden is the most pro-lgbt president we’ve ever had.
I think that the down votes are telling about the kind of crowd this instance attracts; they either refuse to accept that this is true or they’ve never seen it
America certainly wasn’t over it before the Civil Rights Act; before that, we were an apartheid state.
i think it’s fascinating that we’re going back in that direction. Texas, for example, has a majority non-white and democrat registered state per the last census; but neither group are represented proportionally in the state’s government.
and i think the bigger indictment of our system is that there are are MANY “get out and vote” initiatives/groups to help increase voting (especially in texas and georgia); but they all seem to pretend that gerrymandering and voter suppression are either not a thing or not definitive enough to take action even though the last census confirmed (and previous censuses suggested) that it this trend of lack of representation for non-white/democrats is increasing.
the goal is to bankrupt the organization as much as possible and he’s using the legal system to do so; if the organization doesn’t respond, he automatically wins in this legal system, so they must spend $$$ on lawyers to fight the lawsuit.
it takes less than 30 seconds on google to find biden’s record, so i’m hoping you’re not a sealioning.
tldr: biden is a 2-faced politician that goes with whatever is popular atm. this meant that he was anti-lgbt when it was okay and is now suddenly pro-lgbt since that it’ll get him votes nowadays.
voted against gays in the military
affirmed his stance on anti-gay marriage in 2006
supported banning lgbt in federal service like executive order 10450
kissinger was fat and lived to be 100
