  • No where does that source say Biden tried to shut down the Internet. The closest is this part

    Donald Trump publicly advocated that “in some places” we have to talk about “closing up the Internet.” He got his wish, but it came after him personally following his election in 2016. The very free speech about which he made fun turned out to be rather important to him and his cause.

    Also I can’t take a site seriously when one of their sources they link to is the Twitter user “End Wokeness”

    There are some parts I agree with, but there’s plenty there that’s right wing dog whistles for “I want to say hateful things and have no consequences” free speech














  • Yeah, probably wrong. There’s not a bunch of third party info on the environmental impact this factory will have, and no evidence anyone was bribed. If it makes you feel better, this isn’t their first factory and I couldn’t find any negative news about that factory either. Community leaders were supportive though, and a bunch of jobs were created.

    I did find some articles about the positive environmental impact sodium batteries have from production, to relative ease of recycling, if that makes you feel better.





  • Black Girl Games is one of several consulting companies that promote more diversity in games and other media. Not to exclude white people completely.

    Let’s see what we can agree on here, please stop me when you disagree with my statement.

    1. Racism still exists and is a problem in the world today

    2. The best tool we have against racism is knowledge and exposure to other cultures and ethnicities

    3. Having more than two or three AAA games with a main character that is a minority will give gamers that first hand experience with the represented culture

    4. Therefore, more representation is good for combating racism and as an extra benefit is giving more diverse worlds/stories to play

    5. There are still a metric buttload of games with white main characters or character creators that let you be white

    6. Minorities will be happy to see themselves represented

    7. Diversity is not the enemy, and companies are trying to level the playing field, not erase white people

    I want to know specifically what your problem with dei efforts are so we can clear up any confusion.
