regarding biden’s use of the term “MAGA Republican”
« For years, Mr. Biden has been fond of saying that “this is not your father’s Republican Party” to highlight the G.O.P.’s rightward drift. But the consensus-seeking former senator was loath to paint with too broad a brush.
Informal conversations with historians helped change his mind.
The historians explained to Mr. Biden the power of labels and how they had been used in the past to successfully confront far-right factions, helping him gain comfort in publicly tagging Republican extremism as “MAGA Republicans,” according to a White House official who discussed the issue with him. A study by Biden allies identified “MAGA” as the most effective label — a phrase connoting “extreme,” “power-hungry” and “radical” for some voters. »
@noelle but by “small” they probably mean like, 50, and that's a different question
@noelle i think their sense of “small” is different than my sense of “small”
if your instance has five people or less you really don't need to worry that much about moderation unless you have some Very Popular Users; your posts simply don't get that much reach
i mean you still want to moderate of course but it's a matter of blocking the biggest worst offenders and maybe keeping an occasional eye on the fediblock tag
bigger instances NEED to moderate more, because bigger network, so of course they do, so i can see why someone might want to piggyback off of them… but also they frequently are not up to that burden and really need better tooling themselves
@catalina the lyn/florina is real
i’ve already heard some people say they will be the best games ever and others say they are going to be trash and you should fully expect to continue hearing both of these things forever
@coriander do you have any good horror novel recommendations maybe i should study up to write them
@coriander it’s a real shame there aren’t more horror/romance crossovers like either it’s a monterfucker fic OR it’s a spooky scary fic but i want BOTH
re: bad idea
@coriander if you start now it might be ready before 2050
