News articles are still written like that; Raw Story just happens to be tabloid trash that Redditor types love like flies love shit, and current events comm moderators don’t moderate for quality except for the most extreme cases.

Thanks, Raw Story, for the textbook clickbait. What a shit outlet.

OP isn’t evidently in a healthy state of mind. They just took down(?) a second NoStupidQuestions post stating they had an NDA keeping them from whistleblowing on crimes of the US federal government and needed advice.

Sure thing, OP. Good luck with that. I’m glad you’ve wisely decided, as normal whistleblowers do, to create a Lemmy account yesterday called “ElonMuskLovesIsrael” so you can shitpost about how you hate American liberals between bouts of publicly agonizing over whether to blow the whistle on nondescript crimes of the US federal government.

OP, are you baiting upvotes, or are you experiencing some sort of problem with mental illness? The latter is meant to be a sincere question.

Story posted earlier. Different article; same story.

(Means “long wings”, FYI; “penna” means “wing” in Latin.)

Indeed, and needs to be reserved for creating the next generation of hosts for the woke mind virus and/or being aborted (but it’s cool if they don’t want to; it’s their body).

The alleged Reddit reaction is the only one actually mirroring the virology community. Good job, Reddit amalgam someone made up.

I appreciate that the milking room is next to the vegan kitchen. Human breastmilk given with consent is vegan, so line up those Antifa milkers for a mouthwatering, very throwable milkshake.

Coach Heinz?

None.

ALL the bullshit we deal with today can pretty much be directly attributed to this ass clown.

Is wishful, conspiratorial thinking designed to simplify a staggeringly complex and scary world into one where a great, singularizing evil has caused all of this.

I’m probably going to have to keep bringing this up given Lemmy’s appalling tendency toward unsubstantiated “contradictory evidence is only evidence of how deep the conspiracy goes!!” thinking (see: this one, where evidence that it’s Epstein’s writing is actually evidence that they trained an LLM on Epstein’s writing, roping anti-AI into it too*), but Dan Olson’s video essay “In Search Of A Flat Earth” discusses this kind of simplifying thinking to a T when describing QAnon.

There was a now-removed post earlier on /c/politics with like a 45:5 upvote ratio from some random dipshit’s Substack claiming (with zero real substance or qualifications) to analyze the note and conclude that it was written by Donald Trump himself. The average Lemmy user, like most people on social media, are intellectually lazy idiots.

* Edit: I just want to point out that by 2019 standards, training and using an LLM to convincingly fake a suicide note from a specific person by compiling their previous correspondences and shoving them into an LSTM or a relatively new transformer model would be vastly more difficult (intellectually and effort-wise, and probably with worse results) than just fucking reading some of the previous correspondences and deliberately throwing in some writing quirks. That may not be what happened, but if you’re going to believe it wasn’t Epstein’s writing, don’t be a total fucking moron about it: at least believe something vaguely plausible.

One more doubling and we can break the 16-bit unsigned integer barrier.

hey its me the teriyaki vegetable lo mein inspector

inspection checks out; looks delicious

Because we need to simplify the world until a single person is solely responsible for all of our problems. Complexity feels bad and scary, and we don’t like that.

Straight-up reminds me of Dan Olsen’s video about fucking QAnon disguised as a Flat Earth video. “Donald Trump personally wrote Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide note” is baseless QAnon-level shit that people upvoting will justify with “but other crazy things are happening, so I don’t have to ground anything I believe in reality anymore.”

Yeah, but that’s a point routinely highlighted in Batman, namely that Batman is deeply troubled and isn’t strictly doing this for the good of Gotham. Batman having very strongly held ethics isn’t meant to show that they’re good ethics.

OP, this article is from 20 September 2024.

Like that’s not a written rule here, but that seems like something you shouldn’t do given this is a news community.

I read this as “a really good idea” and still kind of agreed.
