I know it's hard to shock these days but Elon Musk going full Rhodesia defender and calling for the ethnic cleansing of the US should still shock you. These are neo nazi views that were only previously shared on explicitly neo nazi sites.

Youâre rightâswallowing the bird was a half-measure. The bird did eat the spider, as planned, but now you have a bird in you. It reminds you of swallowing the spider to catch the fly. Youâre seeing the pattern. Would you like me to suggest some animals which could eat the bird?

Question Throwing it out there Why DO Americans want their country to be the moral leader of the world? Maybe they can fuck off and let other countries make their own decision in that regard

This is an example of why mandatory age verification is nigh on impossible. During a week when X's status as a child sexual abuse image factory was exposed, the issue of requiring children to upload photos of themselves to the internet under the guise of child safety is abundantly problematic.

*Seeing a blocked account* Now did I block them (well within my rights, they must have been incredibly annoying - toxic, in fact, and wrong about everything, I was merely doing my eyes a favour) or did they block me (hysterical overreaction from some haughty drama queen scared of the truth)?

Something I don't talk about too much but that I love and fell in love with in college is Universal Design. The idea and ways that things can be made so that everyone can use them without compromise. Eg, bank cards don't have raised numbers on them anymore, that probably sucks for blind people!

When the far-right was re-grouping in the 1990s, it pivoted from talking about race and skin colour to "culture" and compatibility. This has now seemingly become a guiding principle for the BBC's political output.

I feel like I need more people to acknowledge that we never allowed "we used to manufacture child porn but stopped because of the pushback" as a legal defence before a famous billionaire did it. This isn't the kind of thing you get second chances for.

If we have to choose between a future where we slowly cede our quality of life to US capitalists while debasing ourselves, or one where we rip off the bandaid and tell them to go fuck themselves, I'm not having a hard time choosing the latter.

Again, the people who seem to be most damaged by social media aren't the kids - who are quite good at navigating it - but the middle-aged, who get caught up in extremism, fooled by misinformation, trapped by scammers, and addicted to porn. Stop focussing on the kids. Start with the rest of us.

They want it formally dead, but NATO is already functionally dead as a geopolitical reality. Even if he backs down (wouldn't bet on it), there's no going back from sending European capitals into a spiraling panic that the US is seriously about to invade one of them. You can't unring that bell.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad itâs the leftâs fault, and if the right does something bad, itâs also the leftâs fault for making them do it. Itâs a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

This is insane. Brooks says everyone is too blinded by ideology to see the truth of what the video shows. Then the host asks him what it shows and he refuses to answer. âLeft and right are equally to blame for everything all the timeâ is also an ideology!

If the US invades Greenland, upending the world order and unequivocally ending the Transatlantic Alliance, by all accounts because Trump saw how big Greenland looks on a map and therefore wanted it, it's at least going to be vindication for us anti-Mercator Projection partisans
