  • I didn't think it was possible to sum up reddit with a single image, but...

  • A link to source or some alt text would be cool: this image lacks both.

  • That's assuming a blackmail list or compendium of damning documents shielded from public disclosure by an insidious "Deep State" isn't an element of grander Qanon conspiracy theories that a shadowy cabal of deep state elites runs pedophile rings to extract adrenochrome. Or that we aren't talking about this now because Trump played up conspiracy theories to win the following of useful idiots who subscribe to them.

    The press had reported for years on right-wing crackpots "doing their own research" & pulling wild shit out of nowhere. It's possible for a right-wing crackpot to pull an idea out their ass that happens to be true. It's also possible that unicorns exist on some planet in the universe.

    Not sure why anyone outside those crackpot communities should feel convinced, though.

  • MTG warns Epstein clients she’ll ‘say every damn name’ on House floor as she tells sex abuse victims, ‘Give me a list’

    Jump

  • Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said the CIA, FBI and the Justice Department “holds the truth” on Jeffrey Epstein as she vowed to reveal “every damn name” of the purported high-powered clients of the late financier’s underage sex trafficking operation.

    Is the claim falsifiable?

    Believers claim a blackmail list or compendium of damning documents has been shielded from public disclosure by an insidious "Deep State". The press has long reported there is no credible sign of that & Trump played up conspiracy theories to win the following of useful idiots who subscribe to them.

    What kind of evidence would a believer accept if the truth isn't exactly as they believe?

  • Yet that isn't the post shown: why isn't an instance of leopard eating a face shown in the post?

  • ...you dumb b!tch

    Jump

  • Maybe review the post linked in the rules and point out where

    The victim is then shocked to find that the leopards have eaten their face as well (“I didn’t think the leopards would eat MY face!”). Usually, any reasonable outside observer would have concluded that the victim was likely part of the group whose faces the leopards would eat.

    I see only policy criticism & critical questions, no complaints they themselves were victimized by any of it. They may be living a carefree life insulated from all repercussions for all I know.

    1. Where's the part where a leopard eats their face?
    2. The image of text lacks alt text or link to a source with text: this pointlessly breaks accessibility, searchability, fault tolerance, & makes the web less usable.

  • It’s a fascist dogwhistle, especially the way its use is normalized on MoG.

    I recall back over a decade ago when trolling fascist dickheads at /pol/, I called on my inner cantankerous, old man to ridicule their illiberal views and started calling them backward degenerates trying to set society back to the dark ages. With their scant vocabulary, they went agog with astonishment at this new word and went

    Degenerate? What's that mean?

    Then they became absorbed with that word & brought it back from old man parlance into their common sayings with degenerate this & degenerate that. They couldn't get enough of it.

    Believe me or not, point is it wasn't always a dog whistle, it has been used to criticize the pieces of shit using it as a dog whistle for being that very thing they purport to oppose, and it still can be used that way. Nothing stops anyone else from claiming it back.

  • As far as I know, magic doesn't exist, so words are incapable of action & can't actually kill anyone. A person who commits suicide chooses it & takes action to perform it. They are responsible for their suicide even if another person tells them & hands them a weapon.

    These are merely words on a screen lacking force to compel. There's no intent or likelihood to incite imminent, lawless action. Readers have agency & plenty of time to think words through & reject ideas.

    It's hardly any different than an oblivious peer saying the same thing. Their words shouldn't create any legal obligation, and neither should these.

  • This comment might provide some insights: https://lemmy.zip/comment/21080783

    Sources for that information should be easy to cite, yet I notice none.

    they can do it in private

    How do we tell real apart from fake performances? Should fake performances be private only when they already aren't? Seems difficult to police without chilling freedoms.

    Economic coercion needs to be controlled somehow. I guess the question is how to police actual abuse while permitting legal performances like the Jackass franchise of reality, slapstick comedy.
