Slurs Filled a Chat Created by a Republican Party Official in Florida After the secretary of the Miami-Dade County Republican Party created the chat for college students, it devolved into slurs against Black and Jewish people.
damn itβs crazy how the slurs filled the chat all by themselves. couldnβt be helped iβm sure. chats are always devolving of their own accord
America isnβt gonna come back from thisβ¦ I also donβt think most of the non American G7-20
Understands its not just America
And the lack of consideration or nuance to that discussion isnβt about Americans not facing reality but the actual way weβve lived post WWII
Watermelon bomb pop⦠love those things!
Once again the greatest danger to America is college students putting pronouns in their bios
In 2020, trump said it was βstupidβ that America spent trillions on Middle East conflicts while our healthcare, roads, and schools needed fixing.
Now look what heβs doing.
Same wars. Same costs.
Same neglect at home.
The only thing that changed was the excuse.
Mind you these workers are specifically Kenyan workers who are made to view and annotate the absolute worst things created by man and machine for extremely low pay and absolutely no support or care from Meta for the trauma they endure every day at work
Itβs really shit like this thatβs been especially exhausting and hurtful.

The emphasis on education in the Black community is very real.
The first HBCU was founded in 1837 as the Institute for Colored Youth in Philadelphia (now Cheney University). Founded with a Quaker bequest, the faculty were all Black from the start. #HATM
My kid asked me how they can go to war w/o a vote from Congress & I said "Well, they just say 'we're not calling it a war' & somehow that's all the loophole they need."
Nowβ¦hereβs why an Ollieβs credit card should concern you
Babeβ¦ the kids canβt afford an Ollieβs run
On the one end, this is atrocious. On the other, itβs symbolic of the type of education America has been getting over the last decade or so.
Maybe itβs not the type of learning children deserve, but certainly the type America has offered too often.
the war is unpopular but it's also illegal but it also doesn't serve any purpose but it also undermines diplomacy but it also is set to produce the opposite outcome as intended but it also already has hundreds dead and threatens more but it also will not make anything better for anyone but it also
Congrats to @ncaaup.bsky.social & all who fought against this surveillance policy that would've allowed admin to hijack microphones in the classroom for secret recordings.
This move would've chilled classroom discussion & suppressed students' willingness to ask questions & take intellectual risks.
I donβt even know anymore. War, the senseless murder of civilians, pedophiles in power, just a whole lot of fuckshit.
I know there are more important things, but it is unreal that the president is announcing this via his own personal account on his own personal social media network.
21 minutes ago Farnaz Fassihi The attacks have come on a Saturday morning, the first day of the week in Iran, with millions of people at work and children in school. Residents in Tehran described scenes of panic and chaos.
Tehran is a city of nine million people, with 17 million in the larger metropolitan area.
Saturday is the first day of the week for Iranians.
Millions of people are at work, and children are in school.
As flawed as Obama was from sn international policy standpoing, he at the very least fucking knew that a war with Iran was a horrible fucking idea.
Sam Altman picked a hell of a day to basically urge the world to trust the morality and legal restraint of the Department of Defense
I have said this before, but eliminating programs that teach a lot of students but donβt have many majors is like a restaurant not buying flour in its grocery delivery because people arenβt ordering flour on the menu.
Oh cool. The justice department is investigating itself. Iβm sure this will be really thorough.
I'm about to mute Squatty Potty, cause I really REALLY needed a TW for child abuse to skip that headline.
As you talk about things in the data dump and related crimes, PLEASE consider adding CWs and TWs.

This is cruel and so dehumanizing. The evil in this country knows no bounds.
The entire premise of all dystopian fiction in a single skeet.
Iβve come to realize people think slurs are just words that hurt our feelings. No. Slurs, particularly the N-word, F-word, antisemitic terms etc. arenβt taboo because of that. Itβs because historically when these terms are said they precede or pair with pitchforks, torches, lynchings & gas chambers.
Hey.
Tell people when they do good job.
When you like the stuff they make.
When you like the characters theyβve created.
The stories theyβve told.
Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.
Trust. They donβt.
Tell. Them.
