I have been told the fix is to stop talking about race. Surely if we don’t talk about it, the grid will upgrade itself?

I know! Lots of people died in the Crimea, it definitely should have been mentioned!

Man, he didn’t mention the Crimean War of 1853 once.

You don’t read good. Quotas are quite illegal. That’s the disingenuous argument of someone who doesn’t like having to answer why they thought the most qualified candidate was most qualified in had talked about.

Also, you responded this to a joke about not picking the guy throwing around random sovcit accusations? Man, you two deserve each other

@saltesc@lemmy.world, don’t hire this guy.

Well, he’s really qualified because of his podcasting. Actually, now that I think about it, that’s a theme

I’ve been hiring in a male dominated field for a while, and realistically, in those scenarios, you’re actually being asked to make sure you interview women at all, and if you go with a man, you need to be able to explain why the man was more qualified than the women you interviewed.

Anyone who has said they were forced to hire a woman, in my experience, has been disingenuous, and upset at the layer of accountability

Yes, because any American you meet is very unlikely to be a supporter of what’s going on. Most people’s votes don’t really seem to matter in the electoral college system, and our legislative branch hasn’t… Tried… In several decades. Which is to say, his majority vote came from a minority of the population.

That, and the minority that voted for him are so goddamn afraid of the world and everything in it that they don’t leave their communities for anything.

There are lots of smaller points in this piece that I think miss the mark, but on the whole this is actually not a bad read on the problems in the DNC. Most notably that it’s The party of the establishment.

It’s written as though no one could ever agree with a progressive policy, and I think that makes the author only see the DNC as too progressive for many, and blind to the fact that it’s not progressive enough for many others.

Largely, I think the DNC has become the party of status quo and Not-Trump, and clearly that isn’t good enough

Getting Alien vibes here

So?

Article 1 of the Constitution be damned

Wow, even the Post is pointing out Musks lies

This comment aged like milk

Trump, a Republican who will succeed Democratic President Joe Biden, repeated his threat that “all hell will break out in the Middle East” if Hamas does not release the hostages by the time he takes office. “It will not be good for Hamas, and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone,” he said.

From the Reuters take on the same news.

Reading through a few different sources, Trump sounds like he’s holding Hamas at fault for everything, which I can’t imagine is going to be good for anyone in Gaza

Can’t wait for the Jan. 6 committee committee committee that’ll eventually investigate this Jan. 6 committee committee

Finally, using that cult of personality for something good

You’re looking at the most extreme members of the religion and assuming that’s the norm. Christianity and Judaism don’t look great when you do that either. By that standard, all religions are religions of hate

I’m surprised it got the first bullet point wrong, considering how spot in the second one is

Pit bulls are not considered a large breed
