opposite, mamdani played these idiots like a fiddle

basically just wore a bunch of tacky gold rings and shit and made very thinly veiled jokes with trump as the joke, which trump is too far gone mentally to grasp while distracted by shiny gold jewelry.

in return, trump says he's great...days/weeks after calling him the communist antichrist to his cult followers, even the most die hard maga could struggle to perform the required mental gymnastics to accept this. and every chip in that wall is a good thing.

I wouldn't bet on that.

MAGA has been praising Mamdani for weeks. It's along the lines of "his policies are wack but at least he talks about the relevant issues and isn't anyone's female dog, oh and also fuck Israel"

You can say "bitch" on the internet. Also in the real world.

i often see it removed for some reason. it was removed in your post, for example.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Huh, this is the first I've heard of that behavior.

Neat, it must happen on the readers instance rather than the commenter's. The word is visible to me.

Some instances have block lists for certain words.

what the hell. why

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago

Because the admins are censorious bastards? 🤷

[–] mirshafie@europe.pub 4 points 16 hours ago

Maybe it's just my client but I see a lot of words censored. The word I originally wrote was removed, so naturally I went back and edited it. New to Lemmy so not sure how this works.
