Not that I know these things, but don’t batteries get pretty hot? If it loosens up with a heat gun, wouldn’t it loosen up with heavy use?

President Donald Trump signed an executive order pardoning 23 anti-abortion-rights activists Thursday, one day before he is expected to address thousands of anti-abortion-rights demonstrators at their annual march in Washington.

“Bet you did Nazi that coming”

We did. We did see it coming.

Any bets on when Trumpers start doing it at rallies? I give it a month max.

He can make it all sound good and rational, but what he thinks underneath is nutso.

Honestly I’ll believe it when I see it. They have always fallen in line.

Well I can see this is no longer going to be productive,

Says the guy that gleefully admitsbrags about calling people nazis lol.

Oh and you still feel the need to provoke and slap. Still haven’t taken that look in the mirror huh.

LMAO see I was being polite and giving you a small out, and you said “no no no I was being very rude” as if that helps you. Oh god. And then you say “humble yourself” lol. Wow you need to look in the mirror. Open your mind and look in the mirror. With fresh eyes, and look in the mirror.

It’s a reach that something can be interpreted as it was stated?

I can retrospect. Hopefully you can too because I’m going to hold up the mirror. All of the following is your thinly veiled actions (plausible deniability anyone?).

First, thinly veiled, you likened me stating people misinterpreted my question to how people are banned typically after really going off on mods. Whether you agree or not on people misinterpreting a question, those things are miles apart. Second, you, thinly veiled again, likened me to Musk. Do I need to explain the negativity of that association? Third, you, again thinly veiled, essentially said I was covering making rapist comments by trying to have plausible deniability. Fourth, you, again thinly veiled, essentially said I was covering making rapist comments by saying I was trying to be clever about it. And the doozy, fifth. Again thinly veiled, you liken me to people talking about the third Reich. Like wow. If that Nazi connotation from Elon wasn’t enough, you really pulled out a doozy there. That is a crystal clear pattern of you attacking people by likening them to other people. All thinly veiled connotations so that you can later say you didn’t actually make the connection (you know, plausible deniability). Or maybe you were doing it so that if I said anything, you could say “are you interpreting differently??” like a gotcha. I could explain that one too, maybe next time.

You took every chance you could to provoke, slap, and escalate. You are no longer trying to have a conversation when try to liken someone to Nazis, you just want to slap. Don’t worry I’m not provoked. I just urge you to think about that.

And inb4 misreading I’m saying this not because I’m provoked or mad, I’m saying this because your pattern is clear. You want me to reflect, and I want you to reflect.

If someone can’t see what the literal words say then… there are bigger problems. Which may actually explain things.

It’s odd that you think I raged. I observed.

I can see. But if people have a choice to interpret something as 1) that a question about fashion is in fact an innocuous question about fashion, or 2) that he’s obviously a rapist and victim blaming and I’m going to call him a rapist (when the entire tone of the thread and community is not serious), the problem that I see is that Lemmy is quick to misinterpret in the worst way possible.

And oddly enough, he was the person to escalate with that accusation, and I was the one to explain it.

LOL no I wasn’t joking around (about rape or anything else). It was a legit, straightforward question about fashion. And no he wasn’t joking, it was a pretty clear accusation.

Reaction? If you see a simple question in a shitposting community, with the image of a fashion choice that is unconventional, and think “Hmm should I interpret this as a question about fashion as he asked, or should I interpret this as he’s a rapist and trying to be clever about it”, if you default to thinking that the other person is obviously a rapist (as you seem to have, saying that I’m seeking plausible deniability and try to associate me with Musk and trying to be clever with rape lol), then holy fuck, and frankly that’s on you. That was your reaction. Like you have to really out there to default to “he’s obviously a rapist”. You need to be better.

Honestly this is the perfect example of how Lemmy has a ravenous need to misinterpret. You just did it yourself.

The context of the post: 196 which is essentially a shit posting and take nothing serious community. Yeah that context. And that it was a straight question about what she was wearing, fashion wise since you really need to hear it. So thank you for demonstrating the exact problem!

I just got called a rapist! For asking wtf she was wearing, fashion wise. (On a non rape story just to be clear). I also wonder why I’m still here. Y’all need to be better.

He’s talking big so that Tiktok sells their US operations to Elon. Then he gets to take credit as a deal maker.

So basically the same thing with upgraded hardware?

Every time they run on an environmental policy, they lose. Every time they implement an environmental policy, they lose. And you’re amazed they aren’t gun ho about it? Like they just lost despite the green energy in the IRA. And Trump won with drill baby drill. Do you think Dems will run on it next time? Fuck no they won’t. They won’t touch it with 10 foot pole. They will run on “It’s the economy, stupid.” If you want environmental policy, you need to give them consistent and overwhelming victories.

I really wonder what industry y’all work in that you think the entire energy grid and vehicle fleet can be remade in 4 years.

Don’t worry protest voters, we may be able to start from scratch again in another 4 years.

I see Lemmy’s famous misreading is happening. I want environmental policy. But I know things take time. People that think everything can be remade in 4 years don’t know how big industry is and how much work it takes.
