The rapper formerly known as Kanye West directed viewers to his website, where the homepage was selling a T-shirt with a swastika on the front.

      I want to but I think the Thunder filter feature is a bit aggressive. I blocked the word “US” but I realized a long while later that it was also blocking all links to my instance sh.itjust.works. I’m afraid I’ll lose all titles with “yesterday” or “yes”.

        I’m working on my own lemmy app. It would be cool to have settings for your filters like containers, starts with, ends with, word, part of word. But I also need to strike a balance between average users and power users. Maybe an advanced filter setting would be cool.

          I would assume that the filters are case insensitive and filter whitespace but I don’t know for sure. I should test some stuff out.

            “contains” filters are so fickle. They are the filters you want to use the most but they are very unreliable

    Far be it from me to know of someone, anyone, even a celebrity, by using a reverse initialism or, worst, and I don’t say this lightly, an apheresis.

      It’s shopify, which requires an account to report. So if anyone has a shopify account, please do the needful. Can probably be considered a threat of violence or terrorist organization, or both.

        I have an account.

        When I tried to report it as terrorist organization, the form gets stuck in a redirect loop. It’s broken.

        Threat of violence worked but I needed to provide my full name, phone number and address which felt pretty shit.

    What’s insane is that FOX allowed this commercial to air in the first place. I’m sure someone at FOX will say “We had no idea he would put this on his site”, which we’ll all know is bullshit because they scrutinize the fuck out of every Super Bowl ad before it gets to air. There is a 0% chance that nobody knew about this beforehand.

      And what’s sad is that he’s wealthier than everyone that uses lemmy, combined.

      Why the fuck does good shit always happen to bad people, and good people always get shit on?

          Money does, however, buy security. Money would solve all of my worst problems and make the other ones easier to handle. We don’t need a lot, but sure as hell need more than we have now and people like him don’t deserve a damn fucking cent(besides any universal social programs because that’s what universal means and I ain’t gunna be that guy).

        Probably not a popular opinion around here, but this is actually one of the rare cases where he is (was) extremely talented at his main thing (producing). That doesn’t mean he deserves that disproportionate amount of wealth, but he’s contributed more to culture than elon ever could.

          This is basically undeniable, but what really makes me sad is the artists who don’t seem to be Nazis or even right wing but still support this dude and stand up for him because he’s been so influential on many of them.

    ADL easily calls out this symbol as one “adopted by Hitler as the primary emblem of the Nazis,” but can’t say the same about an extremely recognizable salute also adopted by Hitler as a primary symbol of the Nazis.

      The ADL is a zionist organization that was literally founded to protect a pedophile and child rapist who was, with no relevance to those actions whatsoever, Jewish. Do not take any of their “stances” as being for social justice.
