Yes the implied violence and the introduction of grandpas gun are purely coincidental! How misleading of OP!

Hey, I'm a little nervous 'bout this guy!

Yes, I'm sure they haven't held an election in 165 years because the 85% black population all agreed it would just be a waste of time. Are you serous?

There actually was a regular election- the incumbents just declined to run a candidate against Braxton. Are you suggesting we should cast doubt on that result until the incumbents agree to qualify a candidate (so, never)?

The silent "majority" who haven't won a popular vote for president since George W. Bush in 2004 despite intentionally disenfranchising millions of voters in liberal areas every election! How's that work?

You posted this comment in a community that didn't exist before the protests. On day-1 of the protest this place was a ghost town. Today I have an active feed with dozens of posts per hour and hundreds of comments. This was the best possible outcome. If the entirety of reddit migrated at once then the fediverse would still be crawling or stalled completely. Its alpha software with a a fraction of the capacity reddit has. The threadiverse seed has been successfully planted, it just needs some time to grow.

Yea.

Linux is just a kernel in the same sense that a disto is just a package manager and an init system. Technically that's the case but colloquially a distro is any set of curated, pre-configured packages with an install script.

Once the new season drops I think things will pick up.

Was it antiscience to say covid originated in a lab in China?

ok, sure.

Was it antiscience to say 2 weeks to flatten the curve was BS?

That was contingent on half the population not making it their identity to spread disease.

Was it antiscience to say cloth masks were ineffective?

Yes, it's been proven time and time again that cloth masks reduce transmission and severity.

Was it antiscience to question the long term efficacy of a drug that was not studied for the long term?

Yes, it is antiscience for laymen to question things they don't understand at all.

Was it antiscience to question the long term side effects of a drug that was not studied for the long term?

Same.

Started out pretty good though!

This is about attempts to stop folks from spreading provably wrong info online that's killing people. It's like protecting the free speech of someone yelling "fire" in a crowded theater.

The headline is also overstated. Its a preliminary injunction and of course its from a Trump nominee.

But Judge Terry Doughty, a Trump nominee at US District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, granted the plaintiffs' request for a preliminary injunction imposing limits on the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,

Yea, good call. I wonder if kbin makes them viewable because the activity pub protocol does not allow them to be easily hidden.

Activities are public and easily viewable on kbin. It's been interesting. Seems mostly positive other than people harassing those who down-vote them demanding explanations.
