@davidaugust@mastodon.online“Apple is now treating federal agents—who are public employees exercising government power—as if they’re a vulnerable minority group in need of protection from ‘discrimination.’ This isn’t just a misapplication of content policies; it’s a fundamental inversion of what those policies were designed to do.”
@Sustainable2050@mastodon.energyIn the 2.5 months since the Dutch elections, parties here failed to find a majority coalition, because Rutte's VVD successor Yesilgöz - who chose to form the disastrous previous coalition with Wilders' PVV - ruled out a coalition with the Greens/Socialdemocrats this time.
Now we'll get a minority coalition of D66, CDA and VVD. https://nos.nl…

or said something mean about him and assault on the rule of law

@stefan@gardenstate.socialJust found a YouTube video from 3 years ago about why the last season of Stranger Things will not be good. Lots of recent comments about how the OG video was right.
But I really liked the ending. Very weird. The haters seems to be a minority now?

Was just having a conversation with someone about how "50%" of the country voted for Trump and in reminding them it's way less took the time to look up the numbers. In 2024 Trump got 77.3 million votes in a country of 340.1 million people. That's 22.7% of the people. ~21.5% of the people are under age 18, so 263.6 million adults. Trump got the vote of 29.3% of them. Some of those adults aren't eligible to vote, but when discussing social dynamics, they matter just as much, as do kids... Even of the people who voted for Trump, many were not at all MAGA fanatics (even if they at minimum had a seriously warped worldview and dangerous politics of one kind or another).
The truth is, almost no president has ever had a huge popular mandate, because our society is engineered to let a minority political class retain most of the power while giving the illusion of influence to the masses.
