    For somebody who has undergone michael jackson levels of plastic surgery she seems to really be judging people about what they do with their bodies.

    The correct reason to hate MTG is because she would vote to kill every one of her constituents if it made Mark Zuckerberg another penny.

    Thank you for censoring the c-word, I don’t think I could have taken it otherwise.

      I don’t even watch South Park and I almost convinced myself this was a faked tweet using a South Park script and simply slapped these two on top.

      All conservatives peak in high school. They’ve selected accurate representatives. The rest of the world just needs to realize what a detriment conservatives are.

    Can we please stop censoring words? It’s just amazing how much damage has been done by platforms to people in this respect.

      I’ve started taking censored posts like this and emphatically uncensoring them so the naughty words are even more prominent.

      I posted it in another comment.

      It’s why my iPhone sucks, censoring the most basic swears and auto correcting my cursing. What’s worse is you can even use words like “die “ anymore.

        You can setup auto completion rules to change words like ducking to fucking. What’s hilarious tho is when you actually intend to write something like ducking.

            It learns a bit as you type. But if you want it to forcibly recognize a word go to settings > general > keyboard > text replacement and add the words it won’t recognize. You can even add a shortcut for common typos. But it will hard override any “well you touched the edge of this key but I think you actually meant this” so use the shortcuts carefully.

        You need to tap on the word in quotes in the upper left of the keyboard before you hit space to train the autocorrect on a word you intentionally typed.

      Not unless we stop reposting content from other social media which would make Lemmy even more dead than it already is.

            I am fairly confident, that there is more content on lemmy right now, than a person can sift through.

            If there is more than about a dozen comments under a post, i rarely read all of them.

              yeah i think it’s more about the quality than the quantity

              like, there can be a thousand comments but all of them pointless, which is what happens when your social media platform only tries to grow in user numbers. we should strive for quality over quantity, i think.

                Nah, just the “active” algorithm is shit in Lemmy. Try other sorts. I promise the feed will change. Not as much as I’d like, but it does change.

                  …I do. But the majority of the communities I subscribe to (and I have found multiple iterations across different instances) are not very active. Their reddit counterparts are.

                  You can stop trying to reject my experiences with your nonsense to make yourself look right. You’re not.

        Make sure to switch up how you look at posts and you’ll see that it is more alive than you think. Active seems the most dead which is default, but I still check it. I go by hot, active, 6 hours and scaled, in that order.

      Thats my only hope. Much like how the top nazis under Hitler would have (and in the few days also did) imploded in infighting after Hitlers death. Will the MAGA movement fail when the driving force dies? Will we see a mad scramble for power where whoever comes out in top doesn’t have whatever crazy Trump has?

        They very clearly tried to test run a new trump-lite candidate who they could control in 2020 with DeSantis, but he flopped so hard it was hilarious. They’ve also started trying to talk up some of Trump’s kids and test the waters there, but they’re inconveniently too old and too young or too female for the voter base’s liking

        The Republican party is absolutely fucked when Trump passes because they can’t manufacture a replacement for his cult of personality in time. This is part of why they’re trying to perform more election fuckery right now (and partly because they keep passing incredibly unpopular policies and executive actions which they can’t blame on the other party at all right now)

          I don’t think Cokey or Dumbo have a problem with being too old or young, but they’re somehow amazingly even dumber than daddy shitpants and have the charisma of a hammer and a soggy noodle respectively.

      One of the few things that are consistent with these people (MAGA sycophants), fueled by hate; is how they harbor a fair amount of self hatred in the case where they don’t clear the purity hurdle.

        As well as describing MTG as a jezebel, as explained by uid0gid0, the sentence structure is interesting:

        “I may be X, but at least I’m not Y” would imply that both X and Y are negative traits, but that Y is worse. The sentence doesn’t really make sense if the X is to be seen as positive: “I may be nice, but at least I’m not a jerk.” Thus, Loomer is implying that being Jewish is already a strike against her in her own eyes.

        Jezebel was an old testament (or Torah) wife of one of the Jewish kings back in the day. She was tossed out a window for “leading people away from Yahweh” which is usually code for encouraging people to worship one of the other regional deities of the Levant such as Enki.
        Later on, her name was used to disparage female fortune tellers in the Book of Revelation. Nowadays calling a woman Jezebel is a polite way of saying she’s a slut.

          Thanks for the explanation! I was confused who is the good guy and who is the bad guy here, I knew MTG has said negative things in the past, but your explanation makes it much clearer.
