People outside the US have always been terrified of what the US president might do. Imagine if China had military bases all over the world.
It's a bit late, but pay attention anytime says they "want x" throughout the year. Literally take a note of it on your phone, and buy it for them.
I tend to only buy 2-3 presents a year, but they're always bangers, because they're always something someone got excited over before, them promptly forgot existed.. until I had it to them!
I mean becoming an authoritarian government to prevent an authoritarian government doesn't really make sense
The key word is protected.
Note: I'm an ex-longterm Wikipedia editor and was the 2nd highest rank you can get without being employed by Wikimedia
First, the article won't be updated to reflect current events. It will be kept a few days behind to make sure things settle a bit more. When people start breaking this rule, they'll set it so that only logged in accounts with at least 10 edits can make changes.
When this starts to degrade, they'll set it so only Extended Protected Editors can edit the page. These people mostly know how to behave; anything they add will require a reliable source (a well defined term: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources) and any edit wars will be handled in the discussion section of the page. You would be surprised how smoothly these things can go- at this point, everyone knows the ins and outs of Wikipedia rules.
But, sometimes that's not enough. They may either delete the page and give up, or fully lock down the page so only administrators can edit it. I've never actually seen administrators edit war eachother, but I know it happens. Generally at that point you only have people with 10+ years editing experience chiming in (as anyone else would make a fool of themselves by not knowing Policy 18 of some random WP:LINK).
This is all off memory since I stopped editing like 6 years ago, but high profile editors will spend a long time monitoring this page. The Wikipedia rabbit hole is one of the deepest places in the internet.
This page is gonna get locked real fast
Honestly I didn't see the community and thought this was you taking a picture of your office building or something
Even as someone who clashes with Lemmy.world users every post, I highly doubt Kamala doesn't have the vast majority of American support over Trump. It's that people don't vote
"Why haven't these bugs been fixed??"

You mentioned this was in Europe. You are protected under the GDPR. There are additional laws if this happened in Germany or the UK. Your best bet is private lawyer.
On one hand, lmao good meme
On the other, I genuinely wish depressed/suicidal people would dedicate their life to a random cause instead of offing themselves
Took this screenshot from a private staff channel. The blurred OP is not seeking validation from the community, but half venting about how thankless the job is.
Context?
