astropenguin5@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Exclusive: Leaked Messages from Charlie Kirk Assassin1·13 days agoFrom what I’ve seen the thing that actually got him was telling his parents which then spread down the line to a pastor or smthn who was a mandated reporter. Honestly if it had just stayed on discord he might have been fine, but hard to know
astropenguin5@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Exclusive: Leaked Messages from Charlie Kirk Assassin1·13 days agoTo be fair I think they were using apolitical more to say that what is conventionally politics was not discussed much there and that they set aside said differences, with that post as evidence that there are different people of viewpoints and politics in the server, not that that message was apolitical, the fact that it was political but to the other side was the point
astropenguin5@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Exclusive: Leaked Messages from Charlie Kirk Assassin4·13 days agoKen klippenstein is generally a pretty good source for such things, but it will be hard to know for sure for sure until more people cover it independently
Edit: tbh after actually reading the article I don’t see any particular reason to doubt the the legitimacy
Hell, I’ve seen people losing jobs and shit purely from posting direct quotes from Charlie Kirk, nothing more
I’m ADHD but not autistic and had me too until
Unify our power and demonstrate that we understand the full value of our labor
astropenguin5@lemmy.worldtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•We Must Seize the Narrative2·15 days agoDoes climate change, carbon emission, and transition to green energy all fall under environmental destruction? I feel like that should be a bit more in there
Also perhaps the global rise of fascism/authoritarianism and revocation of rights, particulary to privacy
Honestly this is one of the things that was slightly tempting me to become a programmer, but like actually learn how to do it not overly they on ai
Instead though I’m becoming a machinist cuz I’m better with my hands
astropenguin5@lemmy.worldtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Tyler Robinson, the prime suspect in Charlie Kirk’s assassination, comes from a proud MAGA family, according to his grandmother - The Daily Beast3·17 days agoTO BE FAIR - this does not necessarily mean he himself was maga. Just a bit more likely, and if he isn’t then he was probably in a pretty repressive place
astropenguin5@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•This is my boat. I don't fear the illegal, immoral, despicable entity. My only fear is that I'll be killed, and @rtenews and other craven western media will ignore irrefutable video evidence like...3·20 days agoI am confused as to that I’m looking at
Some of the twitter comments seem to think it’s just a flare

astropenguin5@lemmy.worldto Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•[Video] Liberal influencer David Pakman who received $8000 per month from a dark-money DNC PAC to kowtow the party line is not sure how to pronounce AIPAC.24·27 days agoNGL kinda mixed feelings on the whole dnc dark money thing
Like on one hand party support of independent media is one of the really strong and dangerous things about the right wing, both through money and connections. A little bit of that for the left would probably be good, and from what I’ve seen at least some of the people they gave offers to were decent influencers or at the very least not like actually evil.
The problem is the execution was so bad, I think if it was a lot more transparent to the public, less restrictive on their speech, they could actually talk about it, etc. would have made this a much better project. The same kind of sketchy, backroom dealings with insane NDAs like the right does just don’t work with the left, people care about trust and truth too much lol
It was to make you stay at my house and make more pancakes :3
(I’m sure there is a specific mechanism that explains it but I’m to tired to figure it out rn)
Have you ever seen a neurotypical person actively see and step over a problem/task for multiple weeks and not do it? And like, fairly often?
There definitely are those that do though I think
And tbh I think the more relevant thing that is pointed out here are those that call anyone doing any sort of electoralism/reformism liberals who are worthless. Which, yea, by itself isn’t gonna fully fix society but I’d at least rather people suffer less in the meantime
