Love to see America taking up this free speech fight again. EU has gotten out of control.

I enjoy a lot of PBS and NPR programs, but it is weird AF to me that people want the government to subsidize the media.

1. The job of the media is to hold the government to account. They can’t do that if they’re funded by the government.
2. If people appreciate this media, they can pay for it, like they already do with their tax dollars. I see no reason why people need to be taxed so we can have NPR.

On the one hand, this is some nanny state bullshit. On the other, fuck gas leafblowers I will hate that sound.

“What if instead of investigating actual crimes, which is what people are actually complaining about, we just arrest people for looking homeless?” - EPD and City Council, two of the laziest and most incompetent organizations you will ever interact with

Very interesting thank you for posting!!

Leaving lemmy.world if it doesn’t defederate from threads. Fuck Meta.

In favor of defederation. If I start seeing garbage from threads in my feed, I’m switching instances. I don’t want Meta pushing their divisive, hateful, misinformation all up in my feeds. Meta will kill fedi. We don’t need them.
