ITT: omg how other people don’t see what I, a very smart and superior person who browses technology communities, have known for years

Genuinely, who doesn’t know/suspect this, do you know anyone? I don’t think it’s about superiority at all.

I don’t know literally anyone who doesn’t know or atleast expect this, even normies have the concepts of NSA/Big Brother spying on everything.

Literally even my tech illiterate parents know/suspect that you aren’t private anywhere.

Edit: and if you do know anyone who is ignorant to this…will they find this article/report and read it?

Only an AI would be held back by such artificial restraints…

Wow, I thought it was big before, but TikToks really gonna blow up now!

They didn’t want it to happen to them that day either.

Recognize that privilege you have in being able to decide not to see it and use that to fight for them to not have to experience it.

This is a negative of undocumented immigration though. They should be treated as people, not as cattle.

Americans would do the jobs, just not with those conditions and wages. Undocumented immigrants need to do anything they can. The owner is going to choose to pay the immigrant less and cut corners on safety or other costs 9/10 times.

It’s an inherent contradiction of capitalism, the same one which used to be solved by slavery and colonialism, the need for maximum profit.

Thats why the way to stop the harmful effects of undocumented immigration isn’t to crack down on immigrants, but to crack down on corporations and document the immigrants. (And to reduce push factors such as neo-colonialiam and imperialism in their home countries)

Tell that to the immigrants the Dems keep fearmongering about.

Vice President Harris and Governor Walz believe in tough, smart solutions to secure the border, keep communities safe, and reform our broken immigration system. As Attorney General of California, Vice President Harris went after international drug gangs, human traffickers and cartels that smuggled guns, drugs, and human beings across the U.S.-Mexico border. As Vice President, she supported the bipartisan border security bill, the strongest reform in decades. The legislation would have deployed more detection technology to intercept fentanyl and other drugs and added 1,500 border security agents to protect our border. After Donald Trump killed the border deal for his political gain, she and President Biden took action on their own — and now border crossings are at the lowest level in 4 years, their administration is seizing record amounts of fentanyl, and secured funding for the most significant increase in border agents in ten years. As President, she will bring back the bipartisan border security bill and sign it into law. At the same time, she knows that our immigration system is broken and needs comprehensive reform that includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship.

How is this not complete “they’re bringing drugs over our border, some I assume are very fine people” rhetoric? But it’s worse, because now this is the position of the “leftist” party.

When the “leftist” party is right wing on immigration, the right has to seperate themselves somehow, so now the ratchet clicked and Trump’s calling for pogroms.

The “Republican Party of yesterday” was the fucking Moral Majority. The Democratic Party is absolutely nothing like the “Republican Party of yesterday.”

The Republican party of yesterday was the Republicans of yesterday who are now endorsing the Democrats, because the Democrats best represent their ideology, otherwise they would be endorsing someone else.

Argue it all you want, they aren’t secret leftist heroes.

Because the Dem party is the Republican party of yesterday, not of today.

In 2038+ when they are the ex Republicans and Democrats have “compromised” their way to the current Republican parties position, they’ll be there.

They’re just supporting the same right wing Republican policies they have supported all along, the Dems just represent that viewpoint now.

Because it’s one of the few issues that the Democratic party and Republican party both tout as a problem.

Do they have bombs in them?

Nobody will stop them?

And the United States

Why does it really matter that issues can be “discussed” if the issue being discussed is as atrocious as what Israel is doing to Palestine.

Israel and the US know that what they’re doing is wrong. Them and their crony countries aren’t going to change course because of this.

It doesn’t exactly prevent WW2 if they tell Hitler to stop and he doesn’t listen…unless of course they choose to let him continue his goals unimpeded rather than go to war, citing their documented disagreement as sufficient counter action…

Damn, those Russian “orc hordes armed with shovels” sure are tough!

How many users does IG have that are registered as under 18?

I’m 25 now, but I still always say I was born in the 80s out of habit…

It’s a good step, but it won’t fix things.

I used to find it utterly hilarious before I switched to Lemmy, how redditorshated twitterx and twitterx users, then would praise reddit and the reddit community lmfao.

By competition and diploma.

What sort of competition and diploma?

Who do you compete with over what/in what way and who controls the competition/decides the winner? Is anything that influences this process political?

Does requiring that judges be elected remove requirements for diplomas? It definitely increases competition as you have to compete for the will of the people.

Why elect him on political bases?

Everything is political. The laws are determined by politics, every single person’s interpretation of said laws is determined by politics.

A better question is, how does your system actually effectively remove politics from the process? Or does it simply shift the political aspect from the people themselves to another third party?

Why shouldn’t the people themselves decide how they want the laws enforced in their own country? Who else should decide if not the people?

We do not elect an engineer on political criteria, we take the one who seems the best among the candidates.

Who determines which engineer seems the best off of what criteria? Is it political at all?

Example: engineer1 is great at building bridges but only alright at apartments, engineer2 is great at building apartments but bad at bridges.

The people of the city know the city requires more apartments but not more bridges.

Why should engineer1 get the job for simply being the “better engineer” when he doesn’t fit the needs of the people?

What’s the point to elect them?

Why shouldn’t a judge serve and be accountable to the will of the people? Who knows better? Why?

And how is it not an authoritarian, anti-democratic, political opinion to state that someone does better know what the people need than the people?
