I wonder if they will ever understand how their reactions let us know what is true. I hope not.
I take that massive anger in the reply as a confirmation. So he is right then?
This community’s rule 1 ought to be amended to require posters to uncensor headlines. The White House Communications Director called a Congressman a “dumbass” and a “bitch.” Not a “bi**h,” a “bitch.” And also stooped to some kindergartener-esque mangling of the Congressman’s name from “Lieu” to “Lewd” while he was at it.
Readers – especially American citizens – should not be shielded from the full impact of that disgrace. Stop the sanewashing!
It might be to combat the algorithms they are used to fighting against. These words get posts removed automatically almost everywhere but here.
There is no such algorithm on lemmy. If you’re interacting with a platform that forces self censorship like this…maybe don’t.
Not directed at you specifically.
There is a replace filter on lemmy that replaces words in a configurable list with removed, though. I would argue there is some kind of algorithm for this present albeit visible rather than the invisible hiding of entire posts.
Yes, there probably is one in that regard. I meant that an algorithm doesn’t curate your feed for engagement; you can sort posts in several ways but there is no tuned algorithm feeding you posts to keep you scrolling.
Well, the White House is the actual “bitch” and “dumbass” here.
Everybody has a terminal illness. It’s called life. Last I checked, death still comes one to a customer. I guess Trump doesn’t like being reminded of the fact that he’s probably definitely going to Hell.
I don’t believe in hell, but for dumpy, I’ll make an exception
Likewise!
I’m super glad Ted Lieu has kept up this line of questioning to keep it in the media. Needs to be said.
Yep. They need to start taking down a list of names of officials that are obstructing the process of law, including trump’s maladies. It’s national security shit, not a popularity contest, and it’s irresponsible for a national leader to play fuckaround with this kind of stuff, and the enablers must be held accountable for their parts.
These are some of the lamest insults I’ve ever heard. You can’t even explain to someone how dumb they are, because you’ve already forgotten what they were.
Maybe ChatGPT should take Cheung’s job.
You can always tell it’s Cheung just from the severely limited vocabulary. I don’t think that guy made it out of fourth grade.
Limited vocabulary can be a sign of mental illness.
Especially the mental illness known as dementia.
It’s Cheung, though.
Yeah, I was digressing.
Fair.
He’s one of the few democratic representatives this ain’t true of
I love Ted. He’s very quick, he’s not shy, and gets right to the point.
@cmbabul @sanitation That’s for sure. He’s so sweet and clarifies well.
Cool. So Ole’ Poopypants is going to keel over soon right?
Cheung only exists in this admin so headlines like this can be written about what he says.
He’s literally just a fat troll whose job is to insult people.
That’s what I call “winning”
Yeah it’s called old age.
I thought it was called “being alive”.
