yeah also didn't think about this but they must have been asked in hebrew and I know pew research center has been sketchy how they translate questions to english before because luna oi has called them out for it on a vietnamese one something else to consider @Al_Sham@hexbear.net

good to hear. To my mind social housing sounds like the best bet, doubling the minimum wage is very good but UBI will end up being a scheme to cut welfare services, and unless subsidizing rent includes strong rent controls they'll just hike the prices anyways (forgive me if any of that is already in place not very familiar with Algeria's governance.)

it's kinda strange. it's further evidence the average Jewish person in isr*el has turned into a rabid hitlerlite (really sad tbh considering how instrumental Jewish people were to socialism in Europe in the past), but I'm surprised to see only 55% think you shouldn't be able to criticize the government online. I suppose it must be a combination of people mad about the hostages not being brought back and the people mad that their government hasn't nuked gaza the west bank lebanon and iran yet and both groups want to whine about it online?

great points, you've convinced me but it still seems like such a dumb risky gamble to take...

hmm great angle I didn't think about! still, a little dubious, because this will hurt apple's profits quite a bit and I think it would take more state power over capital than what the US currently possesses to do that. However, I also am not sure what else would cause apple to do something this stupid either...

no it's developed by dessalines it's closest to the "official" app for lemmy there is https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa

what the hell is dessalines thinking that is so counterintutive

now that someone else has said it I can see how that could be the case now. this is why I'm a big fan of tone tags even if I'm not the best at using them myself all the time

heartwarming news

eh it came across as serious to me too, although I could see how this was supposed to be a joke too

yeah don't wanna go to hard on them because they are nice and sympathetic to hexbear but why in the ever living fuck would you post this...

[-] destroyamerica@lemmygrad.ml 38 points 5 days ago

oh hell yeah. happy to see grad is still spooky to them too. as an aside, are midwest.social posters aware that grad is basically the same has hexbear (other than having less shitposting and what not) but is blocked for some reason?
