It's interesting to have a middle name?

Why do I get the impression that this specific detail is was put in to preclude Obama? Being about the only living D former president they might worry about. Going to have to brush up on my amendment procedures but I seem to recall it needing either 2/3 or 3/4 of Congress to even get to the states.
Pride disinvited them after their pullback, and there has been plenty of chatter of people moving to Costco. Recent CNN piece talks about it as well.
So wait a damn minute here. Target, a MN company, had (past tense) an expansive DEI program that they recently scrapped following along with the trend from multiple other outfits.
Unlike many other places the public actually got mobilized in some level to show they're pissed off at Target for ditching the program and refusing to shop there.
NOW the FL attorney general decided they should try and file a suit against them for being 'woke'?
What kind of backwards response is that? It hardly even makes sense from a political theater perspective much less in any practical way. Fascists, still unable to find their own ass with both hands and a flashlight...
Edit: It occured to me that as conspiratorial as it sounds it's possible Target begged for this treatment to try and gain some sympathy points for being picked on by the big bad far right. Give the people someone else they already hate to point at and maybe some 'forget' that you the company just gave a big FU to a sizable portion of your customers/employees/suppliers.
That last part sounds like grand idea, and likely not too hard to do on the client side. Perhaps just a way to sort things by tagging a comm with some flag and all the ones with a specific flag show up in a custom feed. That way even if the names are not quite the same you could create these merged comms to read from.
The hard part there would be posting, you would want some kind of easy way to send a new post to a specific one, but I can't say having a 'post to all' would be a good idea, that sounds like a spam poster's best friend.
In the simplest sense, a separation of duties. If the judge was to be the sole decider of what is worth consideration then you have this individual functioning as an unquestioned king.
No single person is going to know every case, consider every angle, and have an inclination to pursue all points of view. Even the supreme court receives amicus briefs to guide a case.
An attorney has a duty to get the best possible outcome for their client, even if they disagree with what the client may have done. A single person judiciary could never have that position because they are effectively advocating both sides to themselves.
I'm at 200+ owned on GOG here, takes a lot less physical space than all those GME disks I used to pick up.
Yes... but not really relevant to discussions of businesses not actively trying to completely crush the middle class here?
So I've been watching SG-1 recently, and suddenly the way all these alien techs are powered by crystals makes a lot more sense...
I was actually hoping to see that as a defense. The principal thing that copy enforcement corps always cite is 'we downloaded a copy from their IP, thus they made a copy and distributed the work'.
If this works as a defense here then in effect they make direct download portals legal for the users at least.
Nearest Costco is about 45 minutes from me so while it looks like a decent replacement to Target, it's going to have be a bit more planned that just pop out for a quick thing.
Still sort of working on how to keep track of who all I need to avoid. It may only be a small amount but I'm a stubborn one when it comes to avoiding shops. The city pissed me off once so I refused to use their municipal beer shop for like a decade after.
.world is hardly the home of the tankie, what you see might be posts from lemmy.ml
There are two other places known as lemmygrad and hexbear that are outright communist/tankie that you'll see occasionally brigade when someone posts anything positive about the USA.
This and most others are pretty sane. One that comes to mind for what you're asking particularly might be https://slrpnk.net/signup who seem kind of left but not Stalin left.
Otherwise there's the join Lemmy link at the bottom of any given instance to look through.
