Funding for special education is, by definition, part of DEI.

I hope the people who rattle on about DEI being a bad thing realize this.

But they won’t.

Please go away.

Plenty of Jews and minorities fled nazi germany, and as a result have families alive today.

Blue states understand that you can’t just go and TAKE a country’s sovereignty, and that trying to do so sets a dangerous precedent.

Red states seem to forget that it goes both ways. Another country can try to TAKE the US (e.g., Russia, china).

Red states seem to forget that they would be furious if another country tried to invade the US. They fail to look in the mirror.

The centipedes at my mom’s house def bite, it’s very painful. Sometimes you need to go to the hospital.

Basically never walk around my mom’s house barefoot.

If this is seriously how cognitively deficient Lemmy is, then Lemmy is no better than Facebook.

Peer reviewers are expert volunteers. Peer reviewers are NOT paid to complete peer reviews. It is a form of volunteer work.

Peer reviewers DO hold jobs in their respective industries, and are PAID for their actual, non volunteer, jobs.

This is stupid. There are two completely separate variables here.

Peer reviewers review publications as part of their service to their respective communities. Unpaid.

Peer reviewers are PAID by their respective industry for the fucking job that they perform for that industry. Paid.

Imagine saying that soup kitchen workers were paid one billion dollars last year. In reality, the soup kitchen workers WORK FOR FREE. They have OTHER JOBS in which they earn money.

This is divisive, disingenuous bullshit.

The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.

All is going according to plan.

There is a non-zero probability that this regime is coming after people like me.
