Ceasefire for thee, not for me.

Amazon plans to cut 30,000 corporate jobs in response to pandemic overhiring to increase shareholder returns

FTFY

Far-right groups in the United States have unfortunately become more widespread, as illustrated by the roughly 30% of Americans who consistently poll in favor of Trump’s political positions, even in the case of otherwise unpopular policies.

As has happened in similarly backsliding democracies such as Turkey and Hungary, the increasing control of the American far-right over print media, broadcast media, and social media has resulted in the silencing of dissent and is unduly influencing public opinion to improve their odds in future elections.

‘Unleashing market forces’ sounds better for investor returns than for the Indian people.

Given the geopolitical influence of the U.S. and the consequences of fascist-controlled social media platforms being used to sway elections in favor of fascist candidates, there’s ramifications to the acquisition beyond the borders of the U.S. alone.

‘News at 11’ is just a way of ending a sentence while implying the statement before it is neither news nor surprising.

CoMaps is a passable open source alternative if you don’t need live traffic data, otherwise the proprietary HERE WeGo app can be used. Both don’t project fascism onto the Gulf of Mexico.

Trump being blatantly corrupt; news at 11.

What keeps them from changing the Immich license from AGPL to FUTO?

While the structure of the UN makes it inherently unable to directly resolve conflict fomented by permanent members, Brazil could itself be applying more pressure to Russia as a member of BRICS.

DVDs are stuck at a low-quality 480p resolution versus 1080p or 2160p, so Blu-Rays are indisputably better.

The corporate media landscape is already too consolidated; any further mergers should be blocked, and existing oligopolies split up instead.

Don’t trust it at all.

Corporate social media is just a mouthpiece of the far-right now.

Humanity absolutely was and continues to be the main ‘CO2 contributor’; coal, oil, and natural gas didn’t just dig themselves out of the ground and spew themselves into the atmosphere. The immediate halting of worldwide pollution is necessary, but unfortunately unlikely to occur in a manner keeping to the Paris Agreement’s goals, particularly while Big Oil has such a strong influence over American politics and countries worldwide continue to rely on and expand fossil fuel production.

Aside from the aforementioned Discord server not being directly mine (nor are most of the community’s users on the Threadiverse, unfortunately), not only is there a difference between linking to a community Discord server on an associated Lemmy community versus doing so on a Lemmy news community, but the ownership structure and organizational goals of Discord (its gradual commercialization, walled garden, and degradation aside) are a far cry from Twitter being owned by a fascist, transphobic billionaire largely responsible for getting Trump elected.

They still could have made their own post with a proper article as the post URL rather than directing additional traffic to a right-wing social media platform.

Surely there’s a better source you could have linked to than Twitter.

They can have a big tent without making it a Nazi bar, but still choose to do so. They deserve the consequences of that decision until they kick the fascists out of their tent.

Just because Americans are stupid and shot themselves in the face by electing Trump isn’t a reason to also impose unilateral tariffs (versus reciprocal tariffs). While measures should be taken to discourage China from funding the Russian invasion of Ukraine via their opportunistic purchase of cheap Russian energy, other competitive advantages of the Chinese economy, such as comparatively low labor costs, are a sign that Europe should play to its own competitive advantages rather than adopting protectionist measures.
