If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

politics @lemmy.world•Sen. Lindsey Graham dies at 71 after ‘brief and sudden illness’
1·1 day agoThe last I heard about mod removals the admins wanted no responsibility to implement it. I don’t see the other mods rallying to a removal when the admins won’t say one way or the other. I personally find at least 90% agreement with other mod actions and I’m less senior, so it’s not really for me to make a stink, unlike the admins if they so choose imo. As far Jordan specifically, I get along with him personally and also see instances where speaking as a mod wasn’t the best look. It’s minor imo when we’re just told to enforce rules, not some undefined etiquette. We’ll all naturally do this differently from each other with no specifics given, so the standard falls back (without admin input) on following the rules ourselves. If you feel any comment breaks the rules the report it. We do not resolve reports related to our own names and conversations.
Bearing on USA systems is that this is US Politics and VPNs aren’t supported on .world. I don’t suspect the community would prosper under a blacklisting scenario.

191·1 day agoI’ve heard this from a lot of leftist streamers and youtube creators as “rotating villain” theory. It’s basically proven, as only when a majority is gained do congress people start flaking off of what should be an obvious win. Leiberman, Sinema, Cuellar, Fetterman, Manchin, etc.

The value is 1 dollar assuming it’s part of this series.
Looks like it’s a little more complicated. It is illegal, but they’re doing it anyways before the courts rule on an explicit rule being broken. Their excuse isn’t very good either, so it’d be a pretty transparent loss of faith in the courts to authorize it. Probably just making them to give their buddies to show off what they can get away with.

politics @lemmy.world•Stevens gains edge in Dems' Senate race that remains 'wide open,' poll finds
1·2 days agoHer performance was dogshit. She contradicted herself so quickly that the moderators had to double check what she meant and gestured vaguely while Abdul talked about specifics and actual policy. The only policy Stevens has specifics on are related to Israel. Surely the boost isn’t because of the transparent Netanyahu scapegoat that liberals are spinning up… It probably is.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•what's the deal with Data centers and why do we all of a sudden need massive ones built all over everywhere?

- Make middle managers and CEOs feel special.
- Make stock numbers go up.
- Tax incentives on processing power upgrades while environmental laws are at a low and entrenching will allow negligence to continue.
- Moore’s law is staggered so much, it’s likely today’s hardware will not be replaced soon. Also they’re all invested in Nvidia anyways.
- The perception of positive change during a time when stagnation is nearly absolute in the west.

politics @lemmy.world•E. Jean Carroll receives $5.62 million sex abuse, defamation payment from Trump
513·3 days agoGood for her, but 5.62 million is too small. The EU has a much better track record of holding rich entities to account based on percentages of their wealth instead of set amounts. When you have a set amount fee it’s only a problem for the poor.
Yes, that means a speeding ticket for Jeff Bezos should cost him $525,000,000, which is the equivalent between what he earned in 2023 (70 billion) multiplied by the current fee of about 300 on the average person’s yearly income.

51·3 days agoApparently, quoting the article means it breaks the rules of the community, so I will not be quoting the article at all in the hopes more people see the terror the regime is inflicting on our communities.
Quoting is okay, just do not paste the entirity of the article. This is why your last post was removed per rule 1. Copying a few important paragraphs isn’t a problem.
Unfortunately I do not. Project Farm and TTC are the best long form tool reviewers right now. Consumer Reports might be more your speed, but I think videos allow for more independence since it’s a more profitable medium. These video channels are able to spend thousands per video because they’re family friendly and rack up hundreds of thousands of views daily.

politics @lemmy.world•Sen. Lindsey Graham dies at 71 after ‘brief and sudden illness’
1813·4 days agoI think Jordan covered the rule existing and not to break it, but I’d like to discuss why it’s there to hopefully make this more transparent. Especially since Mitch may be croaking soon also (or already did, who knows?)
Rule 6 is a necessary evil. The reason is that websites which are truly off the rails are often singled out. A mostly leftist forum would be even more likely to be targeted. Community mods should on occasion think what would these posts look like on an FBI filing, or on a hit piece on the DSA for example. Not the same morally, but famously many nationalist/racist sites have been targeted and then had their hosting or ddos protection revoked because of content on the site calling for death or celebrating it with their rules and enforcements having no such limitations.
Different levels of extremes than here obviously, but the corporate landscape and justice dept is not on our side here and so interpretations which seem obvious to you may not be made before damage has been done.
Above all, mods have a responsibility to not create problems for the site that hosts their coms, regardless of deserved or undeserved protection on someone’s legacy.
Besides, it’s just as easy to say, “Warmonger Graham: Never an offensive war he didn’t support, never a dollar from Israel he didn’t immediately allow into his decision making process, never a brown person he didn’t want to kill. He has obtained what he wanted most for others, death. He can now start his final battle without his mortal coil, to start a regime change in hell.”

Political Memes@lemmy.world•The United States health secretary everyone.
9·5 days agoTo be clear, the current FDA guidelines on Nutraceuticals is that they have to be treated as food. This is loose because of people like Orin Hatch, who rigged the system for his daughter’s supplement company, which was also found to contain no amounts of some of the ingredients that were listed on the bottle. To make regulation looser would only be possible by not requiring supplements to be edible or by not requiring a list of ingredients (including allergens).
