Everyone here is VERY nice about my predecessor … but all signs indicate he was both lazy and incompetent…which everyone finds very nice ways to not-quite-say

“He was very comfortable doing his own thing”
“I think he liked the lack of supervision”
“Effort was really challenging for him”

Working the narrative of the “bad apples” excuse right into the question is ALSO bullshit

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

…because they are racist pieces of shit

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 1d

The official government account for DHS appears to be run by far-right trolls deliberately trying to provoke a response by using a term openly associated with ethnic cleansing. They will attack anyone who points this out and express faux outrage at the suggestion. They know what they are doing.

Remigration Wikipedia Page.

Not to be confused with Return migration.
Remigration is an originally European far-right proposal of ethnic cleansing via the mass deportation of non-white immigrants and their descendants, sometimes including those born in Europe, to their place of racial ancestry.
It is popular especially within the Identitarian movement. Some proponents of remigration suggest excluding some persons with non-European background from such a mass deportation, based on a varyingly defined degree of assimilation into European culture.

Not one person on the list of rich pedophiles has been prosecuted - despite the evidence being in the hands of the federal government
And the head of that government is named in that evidence.

But go ahead, tell me your thoughts on a Nobel Peace Prize

It is at least *interesting* that the people making this supposedly world-changing technology think its most profitable use cases are: social media videos and sexting.
