Failing to denounce Hamas, Palestinian journalist attacks bullet using his head as a cudgel.

I've had a tag on the user I think you're referencing for a minute now. It's quite helpful.

I didn't down vote you, for what it's worth. I just felt like adding my two cents. Every time someone criticizes Israel they get accused of being pro Hamas, so that's why I'm skeptical of that particular claim. That's all.

I don't know what her view on Hamas is, but I'd be surprised if it were positive. Everyone protesting Israel's genocide is accused of being pro Hamas 100 times a second, so I think that explanation is weak on its face.

The problem with riling up crazy people is they are crazy, and as a result somewhat unpredictable.

Overall though they seem connected: not wanting to defederate from either lemmy.ml with its constant calls for guillotines (I mean... not that I don't understand the reason for such:-) or from hexbear.net, mainstream users are being turned away.

If I hadn't found a way to block Hexbear I'd have been gone. It took me about 2 weeks to realize the users that were the most insufferable to me were largely all from there, and I was a hair from quitting Lemmy because of it. So, for me at least you have it exactly right.

It isn't about taking from the rich either. It's about letting THEM take less, so there's more for everyone else. Slight distinction, but they are the ones taking, not the workers.

He's on a .ml instance

Is this whole instance like this? Like, is this another hexbear?

That shit is still everywhere where I am. Vote as if he's a popular as he ever was, because in some areas he sure seems to be.

Save a click: Google found to be a monopoly (obviously),. They will likely appeal the decision (obviously). No detail on whether a penalty that would actually penalize the behavior in any real manner is being considered/enacted, but I think we know.

I actually am genuinely interested in that fellow's reasoning behind believing both that his job of managing people is successful, and also that all the people he managed do not like being managed by him.

Anecdotally, I have encountered workplaces containing a manager or employee that was universally disliked, and it was never because they were doing an awesome job. They did appear to think that people disliked them personally but benefited from their results. Often they seem to also believe those results would be unachievable in ways that do not produce the distaste. I am not sure these contradictions are entirely defensible.
