[-] Lightor@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Nor that people don’t care about shit like this anymore.

Remember all those movies where America was smart, strong, and just? What a bunch of bullshit.

[-] Australis13@fedia.io 30 points 1 week ago

You're forgetting that the President is typically a decent, honorable, heroic individual in many of those films too.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

A lot of movies are more or less subtle political propaganda.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 week ago

It has always been very striking how Americans love movies where in times of trouble disparate people overcome their differences to work together and solve problems selflessly for the greater good, but in real life they absolutely hate this idea.

The cancer that is the republicans hate it. Like real cancer, they only want to multiply, destroy, and make everything them.

[-] adarza@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago

fantasies, the whole lot.

404 Birthright Citizenship Not Found.

[-] errer@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Can’t tell me my executive orders aren’t constitutional if you can’t find the constitution!

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 33 points 1 week ago

Everyone already knows what the constitution says:

We the people, er, can be assholes to you whenever we want and you can't do shit, and we got big guns, and trucks, and fuck you.

[-] YerbaYerba@lemm.ee 26 points 1 week ago

Luckily my trump bible already includes a copy of the constitution!

[-] prole 3 points 1 week ago

Did they "mistakenly" leave out the fourteenth amendment?

[-] YerbaYerba@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

No person buying that shit is going to read it anyway.

[-] podperson@lemm.ee 26 points 1 week ago

Wow - was the WH site always such a propaganda piece for the current administration? Never noticed before, but upon checking out the site just now (looking for the Constitution), the whole site seems to be a straight-up propaganda bullhorn.

[-] jj4211@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

It's not like I went there often, but from what I recall it was generally very bland professional site.

But Trump is maximum narcissism, and lots of folks are leaning into it to drive autocratic sensibilities.

[-] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 23 points 1 week ago

It's just being revised, nothing to see here.

[-] kablammy@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago

The website or the constitution?

[-] frezik@midwest.social 5 points 1 week ago

Don't worry about it.

[-] CynBonnBonn@piefed.social 18 points 1 week ago

Same reason they shut down tick tok. To orange wash it. Now it’s under investigation and he is recommending shutting it down again.

White House.gov had a 404 error DURING the inauguration and with a link that redirects you to the new website. I have screenshots of this I can provide.

They're in another school. You wouldn't recognize them.

[-] prole 2 points 1 week ago

Lol this was so stupid, why did it make me laugh

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Constitution? Never heard of her

[-] bufalo1973@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

Constitution -> her -> rape target for Orange Shit.

[-] hOrni@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

No shit. It's not like it really means anything. I think they only use it to fill out the page count in the bible sold by Trump.

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

The fact that its possible that this was intentional or Musk is pulling random wires again is disconcerting.

[-] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Constitution : terminated

[-] aarRJaay@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

All eyes will be on it when it comes back to see what's been changed.

[-] prole 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I was about to reply saying that there's no way they would do something that insane... Then I remembered the events of the past week.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Totally on brand.

These people shit all over the Constitution. They just pardoned terrorists, doing something for the guy that, according the Constitution, should not even be holding that fucking office in the first place.

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
