halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump, 79, Called Out for ‘Droopy’ Face at 9/11 MemorialEnglish581·6 days agoEvidence shows brain damage tends to make people even LESS empathetic and thus MORE fascist.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Venezuela says none of 11 killed in US boat strike were Tren de Aragua membersEnglish211·6 days agoIt is a war crime as defined by the International Court. You don’t have to be in a formal war to commit a war crime.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Venezuela says none of 11 killed in US boat strike were Tren de Aragua membersEnglish293·6 days agoDoesn’t matter. It’s a war crime either way.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Posting for the "Now guys he was MURDERED! Don't celebrate!" CrowdEnglish2·7 days agoYou seem to misunderstand. We don’t negotiate. We supply them because they’re killing people we want killed, or we blow them up.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump orders flags lowered to honor Charlie KirkEnglish19·7 days agoHe was going to either way. The faster he does it the more people that currently follow him but have a bit of waivering faith will realize his lies. Everyone has a different threshold, but the faster he tightens the grip the faster some will realize the reality.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Posting for the "Now guys he was MURDERED! Don't celebrate!" CrowdEnglish8·7 days agoPolitical violence is of course bad… but as soon as you call for it, especially indirectly, you deserve whatever comes to you. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism, and there’s not a lot more American than the fact we don’t negotiate with terrorists.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•‘They Are at War With Us!’ Fox News’ Jesse Watters Denounces ‘All These Rats’ After Charlie Kirk AssassinationEnglish17·7 days agoThey haven’t faced any consequences for their calls of violence, so why would they stop?
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•‘They Are at War With Us!’ Fox News’ Jesse Watters Denounces ‘All These Rats’ After Charlie Kirk AssassinationEnglish65·7 days agoPolitical violence is of course bad… but as soon as you call for it, especially indirectly, you deserve whatever comes to you. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism, and there’s not a lot more American than the fact we don’t negotiate with terrorists.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Anti-migrant YouTuber who rallied to 'protect children' is convicted paedophileEnglish59·9 days agoAbusers always try to hide in plain sight. The type of abuse doesn’t matter. And they try to surround themselves in a cloak of protection from what they are.
It’s the same thing fascists do, wrap themselves in the flag and “protect” from the “others”, projecting power through violence, as a threat.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Nestle fires boss after romantic relationship with employeeEnglish7·13 days agoThere’s definitely something else, this is just a convenient reason to point to. Might not even be a legitimate relationship, just something made up to save face for whatever even worse thing is the truth.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Mexican man dies in immigration detention in ArizonaEnglish25·14 days agoThat’s honestly much lower than I thought. That’s probably just the people that they haven’t been able to hide because of actual inquiries from family, friends, and news, leaving out the individuals without anyone actively searching for them.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Alarm after FBI arrests US army veteran for ‘conspiracy’ over protest against IceEnglish21·16 days agoA reminder that Grand Juries indict 99.99999% of the time. To the point where the multiple grand Juries that refused to indict the guy that threw the sandwich at ICE officers was actually newsworthy.
They aren’t there to determine whether it is likely someone did something, just whether the charges are even minimally plausible.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Alarm after FBI arrests US army veteran for ‘conspiracy’ over protest against IceEnglish142·16 days agoThat’s going to get thrown right the fuck out of court, not even the fascist judges will bother with that shit.
But he’ll be stuck in the jail system until that point, which is the real intent.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027)English18·16 days agoAnd that includes the firmware required for you to load your software.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump faces a hurdle in banning mail-in voting: His own Republican PartyEnglish14·17 days agoHe doesn’t have the cult of personality behind him.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump orders Hegseth to form National Guard unit in each state to combat crime, protestsEnglish26·21 days agoThat is a huge financial undertaking.
Congress gave ICE $75 billion over four years, approximately $18.7 billion each year because daddy Trump demanded it. Added to the $10 billion Congress already appropriated ICE for fiscal year 2025 in March, ICE now has $28.7 billion at its disposal this year. ICE alone now has more budgeted than the entire Department of Justice.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Supreme Court to decide if ICE can arrest based on "apparent ethnicity"English262·23 days agoReality really is stranger than fiction sometimes.
Society tends to repeat on approximately 80-100 year cycles. Just long enough for the generations affected by bullshit to lose their voices and die.
halcyoncmdr@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump, 79, Smears Right Hand In Makeup Amid Cankles Cover-UpEnglish13·26 days agoOh there’s definitely at least one blood boy being used in that White House.
Give you one guess.
