@gpowerf I know man, I feel this one :)
Everyone is calling it a KKK rally... was it really that bad? I'm a little scared to watch it. On the one hand everyone overexagerates this stuff, on the other Trump says some wildly toxic shit... so at this point im not even sure what im in for.. I have a feeling it will be pretty cringe though.
@skyblond Yes, very much so.
QOTO used to be on masto.host before we hosted it ourselves. They are top notch. Hugo the guy who runs it is excellent. Highly recommend.

Some Clarity On The Linux Kernel's "Compliance Requirements" Around Russian Sanctions
@flexghost Huh, how ya figure? Why would you assume that is the case?
This is so absurd, the percentage of the company they own isnt even public. Most companies have their founders owning a very small percentage of the company in the end. In reality the money is spread between tens of thousands of people.
If thats what he is doing then that is problematic.
@PaulDavisTheFirst @maccruiskeen @DelRider
In disagreement?
@PaulDavisTheFirst @maccruiskeen @DelRider
Yea it 2as clear that was your point
And mine is the fact that you and others hold that opinion is exactly why moat journalists wouldnt knownamfact if it bit them in the ass.
@PaulDavisTheFirst @maccruiskeen @DelRider
Exactly my point there is a completemlack of journaliatic integrity. I agree that virtually no one anymore adhere to the fairly universally agreed to ethical expectations for a journalist.
@PaulDavisTheFirst @maccruiskeen @DelRider
I jusy checked by the way. The uk code of conduct by the journalists union does, in fact, have similar languahe regarding impartiality. It uses thr term "fair" in a very similar way. There are also rules agaibst endorsements
@PaulDavisTheFirst @maccruiskeen @DelRider
Americas abandonment of tbis principle and the fact that the UK never had iynis thr very reason why journalism in both countries couldnt get a fact right ifnit bit them in the ass.
No it doesnt, but it would be contrary to such principle when the editorial board has bias int heir narrative overall. Its fine to share an opinionated and biased article, when labeled as such, under the newspaper (editorial), so long as opposing view supporting the other candidates are equally welcomed and highlighted. So long as the overall narrative remains neutral there is no problem with individual articles having a bias, and being labeled as such.
Even if my vote is a protest vote (which it isn't), I still have a right to cast it.
My vote WILL count toward the candidate I'm voting for.
It doesn't not count against your candidate.
It doesn't count toward a candidate you don't like or I didn't vote for.
So, please, for the last time...
Sit your whole ass down with this 3rd party voting bullshit!
Stay mad that I won't vote for genocide, capitalism, imperialism, and racism!
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk!
I have two criteria:
1) No praising hitler
2) No past support of genocides.
Unfortunately that means I have to vote third party.
