…because it’s really important that meteorology calculations are done with the correct conservative perspective, lest you predict the weather in too woke a way or start believing in climate change and other elitist liberal dogma?
When will you folks learn to appreciate the artistic license used to tell a larger Truth? ^^^/$
He’s such a dumb shit.

What happened to the right to speak the truth?
It’s not the left to speak.
Their truth.
Their alternative facts.
The actual truth is for snowflakes and liberals to get upset over.
This. All these losers champion free speech absolutism, and yet every single one of them tries their hardest to shut down dissent.
They know the slower among us will rally around the idea without thinking about it too much.
‘Just put the weather in the bag bro’
I’m honestly getting real fuckin fed up with this country
Good. I’m ready when you are, brother.
From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech. It’s only their right apparently.
Can you name one person who’s discussed free speech who was also involved in this firing?
I can’t name anyone who fired her and you know it. You also know that Elon Musk literally claims to be a “free speech absolutist” and then censors people who disagree with him and his fans are all in support of that.
There’s also not a word from muskrat denouncing her being censored and fired, which is hipocritical, to say the least, from a “free speech absolutist”
Absolutely his freedom to say and do what he wants. Everyone else can f’ked.
I can’t name anyone who fired her and you know it.
Correct. It was mostly a rhetorical challenge.
Given you can’t name these people, you were obviously speaking outside your sphere of knowledge when you said:
From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech.
You are really trying hard to protect Musk and his Nazi followers, but I’m afraid you’re not doing a good job of it.
EDIT: I love that the modlogs are public.
“Well it wasn’t from the Nazi region of France so it’s really just sparkling hate”
My new favorite sentence
Yikes!! Now we’re entering the phase where the Nazi salute is being dissected since they need a fucking microscope to suss out the differences.
“Oh, he didn’t repeat the German phrase?! ROMAN SALUTE, LIBTARD!!1” 🥴
We are already at “you can’t be a Nazi unless you’re in 1940’s Germany supporting Hitler”, centrists and liberals are going to enable this “enlightened thinking” to its end in the name of bipartisanship and “civility”.
We truly are doomed.
Incidentally I didn’t even realize that comment had been removed. Weird.
What’s even weirder is that my client is not showing the comment as removed at all.
Screenshot just now:
You sure know a lot about performing a proper nazi salute…
Removed by mod
The person making things up is the person saying Elon was not giving a Nazi salute in the most convoluted way possible.
That would be you.
A lot of people here thinking the USA is speed running fascism here.
No, the USA was always an inspiration to fascism (just ask the remaining Native Americans as an example).
That’s why it was able to adopt into it so quick. Not that hard to change a car to gasoline if it was already running on diesel.

Is almost a good analogy, but that’s not so easy 😅
Frying fat would have been better, because most older diesels run on it out of the box.
Who gets their frying fat in a box?
Every restaurant I’ve seen with a fryer installed. Jugs don’t stack well, everything comes in boxes at the production level.
Well it did take awhile, but it’s definitely easier than turning a horse into an electric car
just have to replace the engine, how hard could it be? /s
better analogy would be converting a (relatively modern) gas engine to E85, it’s simpler, from what i understand
Yep, but to be fair, he’s not an expert in archaeology, so probably he didn’t realise.
Before WW2 broke out, the New York Times LOVED Mussolini. They kept pumping out articles about how much of a cool guy he was.
What if we called the original people Americans, and the newcomers immigrant Americans?
Clarity: Native American -> American
American -> Immigrant American
Because “American” is not their word for themselves. It is the Latinized last name of the Italian explorer (Amerigo Vespucci) who explored the continents.
It would be offensively ironic to name the original dwellers of this land mass after the guy, it would be assimilation.
All life on land is an immigrant is it not?
Not really. Those are human made concepts, so you must start from the inception of the concept of immigration. Good luck finding the exact date, since it predates written language :/
Well since dates are human concepts as well we can just state it is immigration date 00/00/0000. Are the months or days first? That’s up to you, haha. You make a good point, but you understand what I mean. If we consider immigration only being the integration into another state permanently then we would have to say we had mostly open immigration into the U.S. until the later parts of the 1800s. The first 99 years there were no real immigration laws here. (So roughly 40% of our history had no immigration restrictions for the most part)
And due to the transitive property of humans, if we follow this through to its logical conclusion then native Americans are immigrant Americans too
Which is why “indigenous” is the best word in my opinion. Not just for the indigenous Americans, but for indigenous people the world over. It’s generally understood to mean “pre-colonial.”
Edit: The only exception I can think of is that the Vikings settled Greenland before the Thule (who became the Greenland Inuit), but Danes are not considered indigenous and Inuit are. Maybe because the Vikings that settled there all left or died out and also maybe because the Vikings and the Thule settled different parts of Greenland and had very little contact with each other even when they could clearly see each other across a fjord. The very Christian Vikings of that era were probably quite reluctant to interact with people they saw as heathens.
They really are speedrunning fascism this time around. They did have plenty of time to prepare out in the open and gained public support with no long term repercussions.
Remember when trump said he had no idea what project 2025 was and that he had no intention of implementing it?
Yeah, I 'member.
Man I was thinking I was the only one that 'membered that.
Goddamn South Park being prophetic again.
It’s a common meme to this day…
ah, freedom of speech at its finest
Not supporting this but freedom of speech is freedom from prosecution. If you are flipping burgers and tell a customer your favorite category of adult film, your getting fired.
From what I searched, the meteorologist criticized Elon Musk on her private social media, not while working.
If you’re flipping burgers, and later you get home and post online on a personal account about your favorite category of adult film, it’s none of your employer’s business.
I totally agree. Still nothing to do with freedom of speech itself. The 1st amendment.
I meant free speech, not the 1st amendment (I’m not even from the US). The concept of freedom of speech is relevant to this situation.
I believe that a company threatening to fire its employees based on an opinion they had in private or in a personal social media account is wrong. I imagine this isn’t necessarily against the law, but should still be acknowledged as a form of censorship.
Of course, there are certain opinions that are absurd or even illegal(?). if a company relies on public image of its employees (not sure if i phrased this correctly) then there are situations where it’s reasonable to fire the employee for an opinion, but since it’s regarding opinions, this would be very difficult or impossible to define legally while still being fair.
I’m not exactly sure what my point is anymore so I’m just gonna stop arguing, but I’ll maybe read some other threads for some insight on the situation
I do agree though some jobs like a meteorologist means you are on tv and affect the reputation of your business. You can’t have actors on your TV show expressing opinions on social media that affect your bottom line. It’s bad for business which means you can be fired. All about money sadly. That’s censorship though, not freedom of speech unless your country has a different definition of the phrase than the U.S.
Freedom of speech and the First Amendment are two different things.
Freedom of speech is just that, free from government interference(look it up). You are referring to censorship.
Yep you are free to call out fascist your employer supports. And your employer is unfortunately free you to fire you. No free speech violations there. Now if they called in the government to take you off to a camp to be exterminated or re-educated. Once the government becomes involved it’s most definitely a free speech / human rights violation. Will get there soon enough. Still plenty of reason to be outraged.
Everything they accuse china and the opposition of doing it something they do or want to do themselves.
Every accusation is a confession.
Same as russia. Classic faschist strategy.

It’s a problem that the purge of those offended by nazis/oligarchs hinting too close to naziism is this early.
The Nazi speedrun all around the world scares me. It’s like they are competing with climate change, for who gets to kill us first.
They aren’t unrelated.
Meteorologist fired, picture unrelated.
Had to do some memeological research; that’s Yeon-mi Park, a North Korean defector on the Joe Rogan Podcast saying “in North Korea …”
she makes up shit about how bad life in is NK, like “we have to get out and push the train when it stops”
Her replacement will be predicting a lot of Heil in the future
