    My issue with Jerboa has been that it doesn't register when I have copied things so it's difficult to paste links/articles/quotes.

    I might try out Sync so that I can contribute more informative responses, but I like the idea of Jerboa being open source as that's what drew me to the app.

    Honestly the hardcore tankies initially soured me from joining the fediverse at first, until I understood how the fediverse functioned and realized it was just a loud minority that held extreme views. It's still disturbing to read genocide denialism while openly supporting things such as authoritarianism and Russian imperialism.

    While not wrong, it really is me :)

    Though there's no way to really prove it unless you know some personal things about me that I can prove. But I tried to stay somewhat anonymous other than being a Canadian anthropologist who works in athletics lol

    As per @doc@kbin.social suggestion, I have edited a comment on reddit I made a few weeks ago to include my Lemmy handle.

  • Trump was just indicted for trying to steal the 2020 election

    Trump pushed the big lie that the election was stolen. Trump lost in the courts^[1] including the Supreme Court.^[2] Then he tried to pressure state officials.^[3] He tried to pressure Pence.^[4]

    So what does Trump do after exhausting all nonviolent methods of overturning the election? He turns to his supporters and lights them up making inflammatory statements such as;

    • We are going to fight for the survival of the nation.

    • Now is not the time to retreat, its to fight harder.

    • We will never give in, never back down, never surrender.

    • We will fight like hell.

    • You have to get your people to fight.

    He primed them for weeks.

    State officials had started getting death threats weeks before the attempted insurrection following the general election.^[5] Trump saw first hand what violence was being created as his supporters rioted and vandalized black churches in Washington back in December.^[6]

    Trump didn't stop his incitement after the initial violence, he got more specific. He told his supporters how, when, and where. He gave them 18 days notice inviting them to the rally telling them to be there, that it will be wild.^[7] And on the day of the insurrection Trump told his supporters to march on the Capitol and fight like hell.

    Following the riot Trump continued to promote the big lie that had incited the insurrection. After the mob was dispersed, Trump praised and sympathized with the mob in a video he released, claiming once again that the election had been stolen.^[8] Then he praised the insurrection in a tweet after the mob had been dispersed. He told his mob to remember Jan. 6 forever. He said that he loved the insurrectionists and that the violent mob were special people.

    In a phone call, Trump tried to pressure officials in Georgia into making tens thousands of votes disappear to try and steal the 2020 election. They found no illegal votes, refused to overturn the results and began receiving death threats from Trump's supporters.^[1]

    After Trump had exhausted all legal forms of overturning the election; From having over 60 frivolous lawsuits thrown out from all levels of courts including the conservative leaning Supreme Court (Trump picked 3 justices out of 9), and after his Attorney General Barr resigned (an individual that covered/stalled investigations for Trump), Trump turned to his stalwart supporter in Vice-President Pence. A lie was pushed that Mike Pence could refuse to certify the election results as he presided over the counting of the ballots of the electoral college during the joint session of Congress on Jan. 6. Pence refused this illegal power grab. Having no further recourse Trump incited an insurrection during a rally Trump held at the same time the E.C. ballots were being certified. Trump's supporters erected a gallows, stormed the capital where several people subsequently lost their lives including police officers. Politicians were incredibly lucky they escaped. For example Capitol Police Officer Goodman's quick and heroic decision to lead an angry mob away from where congression members were hiding probably saved many lives. This mob was chanting hang Mike Pence, many of whom wore tactical gear, carried zip ties, and used flagpoles, fire extinguishers, and chemical sprays as weapons while attacking police officers that protected Congress.^[2]

    Thank you for listing out all of Trump's charges from the indictments.

    Here is a refresher about the recent indictment and charges related to Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation into the January 6th insurrection.

    I think NCD provides enough mobikcube memes to be self-sustainable. Which is another reason why RA demanding the sub no longer be NSFW is farcical lol

    Maybe we'll see an influx of new users from r/NCD. Maybe we'll see some more activity here! I only lurk these parts (same on reddit) because it's fun to read shitposts every now and then.

    It's pretty dumb for RA to go after NCD, I clicked on far too many NSFW posts without realizing what it was as they weren't labeled. The arguments NCD mods present with sources are true. I feel like it's reddit just trying to stem the loss of money. Their IPO valuation has lost 41% of its value in a year^[1] and now their bottom line is being affected because users realized advertisements aren't shown on NSFW subs.^[2]

    Definitely would like it in the Premier League!

    Another thing I'd like to see is an end of players surrounding referees. Should only be captains, refs get too much abuse and it trickles down to grassroots football, then we wonder why there is a lack of quality when the pool to select referees is small/close knit.

    Honestly I'm not sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if we're still behind the times. Rangnick often pointed out how inefficient the club was. LvG and Mourinho have also said similar things.

    Last year we sacked senior members of our scouting staff just before the summer window opened, the ineptitude runs deep at our club 😅
