You don’t read good. Quotas are quite illegal. That’s the disingenuous argument of someone who doesn’t like having to answer why they thought the most qualified candidate was most qualified in had talked about.

Also, you responded this to a joke about not picking the guy throwing around random sovcit accusations? Man, you two deserve each other

@saltesc@lemmy.world, don’t hire this guy.

I’ve been hiring in a male dominated field for a while, and realistically, in those scenarios, you’re actually being asked to make sure you interview women at all, and if you go with a man, you need to be able to explain why the man was more qualified than the women you interviewed.

Anyone who has said they were forced to hire a woman, in my experience, has been disingenuous, and upset at the layer of accountability

Yes, because any American you meet is very unlikely to be a supporter of what’s going on. Most people’s votes don’t really seem to matter in the electoral college system, and our legislative branch hasn’t… Tried… In several decades. Which is to say, his majority vote came from a minority of the population.

That, and the minority that voted for him are so goddamn afraid of the world and everything in it that they don’t leave their communities for anything.

Can’t wait for the Jan. 6 committee committee committee that’ll eventually investigate this Jan. 6 committee committee

I’m surprised it got the first bullet point wrong, considering how spot in the second one is

My memory was that we knew this at the time?

I guess 2000 was long enough ago to forget

If the dems ever sweep the house and senate, I hope they pass legislation

I mean, it’s pulling from MBFC and ground news, which are not both owned by Dave Van Zandt, and he doesn’t work alone. Also, when compared to other fact checking organizations, MBFC performs well, from what I’ve read. Well enough that if you find their output uncomfortable, you should be second guessing yourself.

It’s not really a bot’s opinion though? It’s reporting on salon in general, and letting you know that the reporting has a bias, which means generally, it might promote parts of the story that show Vance in a bad light compared to other reporting, and the. The Ground News link shows that reporting on this topic across several sources tends to be pretty non biased and factual. That’s all good information to have, and saying otherwise means you want to let yourself be misled.

And everything other than joining the topic and the source is written by humans who are trying to keep people informed.

But following media reports, it has also admitted that China-based employees had access to US users’ data, although the company insisted it was under strict and highly limited circumstances.

Employees of ByteDance might be Chinese, but they don’t work for the government. They work for ByteDance. I haven’t found anyone claiming to have proof that data in US citizens has left the company. Just fears that it could.

If you’re down voting a fact checker, you might want to do some self reflection on why you’re upset that Salon doesn’t have a perfect rating

There is concern that ByteDance may be giving the Chinese government access to data on US citizens. It’s worth noting that no proof of this actually happening has surfaced.

Mostly because of this. TikTok is the app collecting massive amounts of data on its users with dubious intent and questionable security that is currently being scapegoated, and discord is on the long list of popular apps that collect massive amounts of data their users with dubious intent and questionable security that we are not scapegoating.

That’s what the article is about: how that change has pushed politicians to be open about their flaws and having much more public lives, like celebrities. Meaning that voters vote for politicians who act like celebrities. The sentiment in other comments of “No. No we don’t.” ignores the reality of who has been winning elections for the last 30 years.

I’m gonna guess there’s a lot of down votes from people who just read the title…

The author points out the last 30 years of presidential candidates as their evidence, and paints a pretty nuanced picture of his politicians have dealt with changing voter trends. No one wants to vote for the candidate that doesn’t act like that can emphasize empathize (glide typing failed me) with them, even though that’s not really the president’s job.

If those ~25 Lemmy users could read they’d be very upset

Pretty sure you just attacked someone for agreeing with you.

Excuse me if I don’t trust the infallibility of the foreign policy platform of a person who falls back to ad hominem attacks after reading 3 sentences, and failing to grasp their meaning
