If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

Zionists are a literal plague on society.

I just fixed the DNC3·5 days agoI think it’s pretty much a given that with current leadership a dead end followed by a U-turn back into fascism is all that they’re offering us. Better than fascism, but still guarantees a fascist future.

Lasherz@lemmy.worldMtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•If it doesn't work.. try something else. Then just keep doing stuff. Youre welcome. I just fixed the DNC13·5 days agoI feel like abundance is just doing nothing. Democrats already think they’ve reached the balance between industry and social impact. The fact that everyone* suffered* still with them in power means they haven’t, but they think it’s just a fine tweak away. Patience is unwarranted at this point.
Edit: clarity
Lasherz@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If I found voter irregularities in my home district do I have to hire a lawyer to prove it.? Or just let it go and the Florida Orange win?121·5 days agoI think you’d be best served by doing all due diligence and proving this to be the case before approaching media. A lawyer would be if you were harmed, so if your vote was not counted, then you were harmed. There also needs to be a known plaintiff, though, so you need a lot of data for that step. You can’t simply use conjecture for legal proceedings, which is why Trump lost or rendered null every case he filed in 2020.

There are varying degrees of harm which people tip the scale on, but I think minimizing harm is an admirable attribute, doing no deliberate harm reduction is sociopathic, and maximizing harm is sadistic.
I think the latter two traits are rare, but education on effects is just as rare.

Lasherz@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why is audio track volume normalization always awful?8·8 days agoIt has to do with compression. The levels are more active to correct than an EQ and often result in clicks of louder volume. Also it’s worth mentioning that virtually all media utilizes volume for effect, nullifying it tends to sound uninspired.

CSPAN did us dirty by not zooming out to show their faces as they rubber stamp the American Nazi Enabling and killing the poor act that rendered their jobs useless.
There is hemming and hawing to the public, but make no mistakes, they’re proud of themselves and think nothing bad will happen to them. So far they’re right.

Matter of fact, never use M dashes or “fully loaded” sentences if you can avoid it. I would recommend rewriting all of it line by line to sound identical as possible to the listing to a layperson. In other words, if the listing says must type 60 wpm, don’t leave it out that you type 160 and don’t include you use dvorak.

Lasherz@lemmy.worldMto politics @lemmy.world•New book details how Obama slammed Biden’s re-election bid: ‘Your campaign is a mess’22·8 days agoOn 20 November 2023, Biden received a call from Obama wishing him a happy 81st birthday, and invited his former boss to the White House for lunch. Obama remained “slightly incredulous” that Biden was running for a second term, the book says.
When the pair met for lunch in December, Obama argued that dividing the campaign leadership between Wilmington and Washington was not suitable for the fast decision-making required by a modern presidential election.
“After the lunch,” the authors write, “Obama did not leave the White House right away. He stopped to visit with Biden’s senior staff, many of whom used to work for him, and shared his account of what he and Biden had discussed. Obama was more blunt with the staff. ‘Your campaign is a mess,’ he told them.”
Does anyone in the entire country give a single solitary fuck about Biden’s feelings right now?
