A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Sounds like a complete BS. Basically what haters want to hear.

Bad working conditions ect. would be believable, but this is just too sensationalist to take at the face value

[–] muse@kbin.social 91 points 1 year ago

It's okay, we see your post history defending far right violence and whataboutism about a non existent leftist strawman.

You can skip the song and dance and just not post on here. We know you'll excuse racism or pretend it doesn't exist unless it happens to you. Bigots tend to do that

I mean, the EEOC is literally suing them. Not sure what part you don't believe. If you don't believe that stuff actually happened there, did you read to the end of the article? It's not the first time they've been accused of this

Nah, these accusations of racism from a company owned by an Apartheid era South African emerald mine heir are too racist.

To anyone thinking of reporting this comment, he's already been banned. I'm leaving the comment up because I think it's a good example of the community rallying to push back on a racist idiot. 😄

And yet at this moment it has +16 points.

There was a good month or so there where lemmy wasn't inundated with far right nonsense... that was nice, wasn't it? Sigh....

Anything that can be a front in the culture war will become one.

I'm not sure I agree, I've seen the far right nonsense on here since day one. Sure, it's increased with the overall popularity/activity, but it's always been there. Then again, since I help to admin a large instance, I'm perhaps more exposed to see it.

Lmao, this guys post history. I’d accuse him of being a shill but I think he’s sucking corporate dick for free.

Ok. Life expectancy in america is lower for poor people. We can agree on that. Can you please compare it to the life expectancy in communist countries, like North Korea, USSR or China during Mao regime?

Lots of gems in there like this one, check through for a laugh. I don’t know why, but every right wing dirtbag that talks about “Marxist ideology indoctrinating children” is also an Elon and trump simp. Every single one. Evidence that the right loves strongmen, dictators and big leather daddies to tell them what to do and run society for them.

Can't I hate Marxists and Nazis?

[–] interolivary@beehaw.org 27 points 1 year ago

Doubtful you even understand what a Marxist is, honestly

[–] Marketsupreme@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago

Yeah these damn government orgs are just haters for suing them on legal grounds! /s

[–] agent_flounder@lemmy.one 8 points 1 year ago

Sounds like something a bigot would say.
