You don’t read good. Quotas are quite illegal. That’s the disingenuous argument of someone who doesn’t like having to answer why they thought the most qualified candidate was most qualified in had talked about.

Also, you responded this to a joke about not picking the guy throwing around random sovcit accusations? Man, you two deserve each other

@saltesc@lemmy.world, don’t hire this guy.

I’ve been hiring in a male dominated field for a while, and realistically, in those scenarios, you’re actually being asked to make sure you interview women at all, and if you go with a man, you need to be able to explain why the man was more qualified than the women you interviewed.

Anyone who has said they were forced to hire a woman, in my experience, has been disingenuous, and upset at the layer of accountability

Yes, because any American you meet is very unlikely to be a supporter of what’s going on. Most people’s votes don’t really seem to matter in the electoral college system, and our legislative branch hasn’t… Tried… In several decades. Which is to say, his majority vote came from a minority of the population.

That, and the minority that voted for him are so goddamn afraid of the world and everything in it that they don’t leave their communities for anything.

Can’t wait for the Jan. 6 committee committee committee that’ll eventually investigate this Jan. 6 committee committee

I mean, it’s pulling from MBFC and ground news, which are not both owned by Dave Van Zandt, and he doesn’t work alone. Also, when compared to other fact checking organizations, MBFC performs well, from what I’ve read. Well enough that if you find their output uncomfortable, you should be second guessing yourself.

It’s not really a bot’s opinion though? It’s reporting on salon in general, and letting you know that the reporting has a bias, which means generally, it might promote parts of the story that show Vance in a bad light compared to other reporting, and the. The Ground News link shows that reporting on this topic across several sources tends to be pretty non biased and factual. That’s all good information to have, and saying otherwise means you want to let yourself be misled.

And everything other than joining the topic and the source is written by humans who are trying to keep people informed.

If you’re down voting a fact checker, you might want to do some self reflection on why you’re upset that Salon doesn’t have a perfect rating

Froot*

My understanding of why a lot of people come to communities like this is that… We could be living in a post-scarcity society. There is enough. We just don’t distribute it. We prioritize growing the wealth of a few dozen insanely rich people with the labor of everyone else. Which means we prioritize making the majority of people work shit jobs for next to nothing doing jobs of dubious value to society.

Cero!

So, no. You’re just looking for someone to hear you scream. Cool.

Can you point out the wilful ignorance or deliberate belligerence? Not including the guy who called the stuff he didn’t like to read a “miasma of stupidity”

My guy, this was a respectful conversation. Where the hell did that come from? You’re allowed to disagree with @Xanthobilly, but you’re way out of line.

Well, some advice you didn’t ask for, and that I don’t always follow: it’s easier to start a conversation where it is, and direct people towards the productive conversation you want to have, than to start off by calling someone a villain for something they already said. You didn’t make your point easy to appreciate.

I will say you’ve given me some food for thought, though.

So, telling people to not try and be funny, even those you agree with, is definitely alienating your allies. I hear what you’re saying, but I have also seen parents losing their ever loving shit at PTA meetings… And to say that everyone must treat those ignorant displays with quiet respect, because CRT was mentioned… Seems a bit beyond the pale.

Okay, so, I am reading what you’re saying, and I don’t really know how one could make a joke that isn’t, by your understanding, part of the conservative agenda.

And if that’s what you think, I am curious why you’re looking at memes at all.

I think you’re alienating your allies here. This is clearly intended to be left leaning, and you’re lumping OP with Trump and facists.
