politics @lemmy.world•Newsmax refuses to sign Trump admin’s new Pentagon press access policyEnglish
20·1 year agoNewsmax is conservative enough to get media access whether they sign it or not; the goal of the policy is ultimately censorship, allowing the Pentagon to selectively enforce it against liberal and moderate publications that don’t parrot their fascist propaganda.

politics @lemmy.world•Harris on Trump: ‘We’re dealing with a communist dictator’English
1971·1 year agoHe’s a fascist dictator, not a communist one. And when the ‘titans of industry’ care more about their bottom line than democratic principles, that’s a sign to rally against them, not frame one’s argument with an echo of McCarthyism.

35·2 years agoand wreck an ugly MAGA lie
The problem is that MAGA people either don’t know about the problem, don’t care about the problem, or would actively harm foreigners (or American minorities, for that matter) if it put even a penny in their pocket or made them feel superior.
Only the people that already know the republicans are lying their pants off know it’s a lie, a fact worsened by corporate news media and social media firms censoring the virality of anything that could hurt the far-right.

politics @lemmy.world•Donald Trump's Gen Z popularity plungesEnglish
271·2 years agoWhile an overload of mindless far-right, conservative, bigoted, and transphobic videos on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram, and similar posts on Facebook and Twitter, undoubtedly played a large part in indoctrinating so many people (as has been the case in countries such as Hungary and Turkey), it’s still crazy that so many people were suckered in by Trump’s lies about reducing inflation, when his first term in office proved how shitty he was, as well as the reason why Roe vs. Wade was overturned. It shouldn’t have taken countless constitutional violations in only the first month of a second term as president for people to realize that.
If corporate oligarchs haven’t fully dismantled what remains of the country’s severely flawed democracy in four years’ time, then there’s every chance that they’ll buy the presidency again in 2028, apathetic to the rise of fascism and the dismantlement of civil rights.

politics @lemmy.world•Apple changes Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America on mapsEnglish
3·2 years agoDeleted Apple Maps in favor of Organic Maps at the suggestion of another Lemmy user yesterday. Although it lacks live traffic data, given the lack of centralized userbase location tracking, and scrolling on the map could be a bit smoother at times, I’d rather use it than a platform willing to implement fascist place names.
I’m hoping that toll road avoidance also works better with Organic Maps, since Apple Maps oddly seems unable to give non-toll directions if you accidentally get on a toll road and exit to return to a non-toll routing.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump announces task force to ‘eradicate anti-Christian bias’English
32·2 years agoHe’s off to a bad start; announcements like that only serve to increase anti-Christian bias, mine included.

The same idiots voted for Trump again after having seen Trump do nothing to help them in his first term, so they’re just getting what’s coming to them.
