Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Buy European@feddit.uk•“The European Union won’t take chicken from America. They won’t take lobsters from America. They hate our beef because our beef is beautiful and theirs is weak. It’s unbelievable” Lutnick told FoxNews2·6 days agoNot really. It’s weird. You kinda have to be familiar with the ranch that raises the beef, and the ones that don’t use a ton of chemicals also don’t advertise to the public. It’s basically only available to small town folks who are “in the know” and boutique restaurants. This has been my experience, anyway. One of my exes comes from a cattle rancher family, so my sample size is tiny. Other people may have other experiences.

While we do have some great beef in the US, it’s all from smaller ranchers that most people don’t have access to, and it still doesn’t compare to Argentina.

They hate our beef because our beef is beautiful and theirs is weak. It’s unbelievable” Lutnick told FoxNews91·6 days agoIt depends on where it comes from in the US. You’re spot on when it comes to basically anything sold in a grocery store. But we have some great cattle that produces great beef. You have to go to high end butchers for it though. Or buy it directly from the ranchers and butcher it yourself.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Buy European@feddit.uk•Europe has a 'real opportunity' to take in Americans fleeing Trump. Is it ready for a 'brain drain'?201·13 days agoFinancial experts are seeing a spike in affluent working Americans looking to resettle in Europe.
Arielle Tucker is the founder of Connected Financial Planning, a company that helps Americans relocate to Europe.
Tucker received more than 30 new American clients in the week after Trump’s reelection, a level of interest that’s been sustained throughout the last few months.
Many of Tucker’s clients are in their mid-30s or early 40s and work in executive roles in tech, pharmaceuticals or finance.Yet again, the average working-class person is left behind to suffer the worst effects of the policies that these people largely voted for and now cowardly run from.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•European police say KidFlix, "one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world," busted in joint operation.English28·16 days agoGoddam what an obvious fucking name. If you wrote a procedural cop show where the child traffickers ran a site called KidFlix, you’d be laughed out of the building for being so on-the-nose.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution.English42·19 days agoYou are working under the assumption that these “pedo hunter” groups are all acting in good faith and on good information. I encourage you to do some reading. There are many cases where these groups pretend to be 18 year olds, lure an unsuspecting person into a meeting, and then lie to their audience about the age they originally claimed to be online, as Xatolos has pointed out.
Lots of them do it to lure in and attack LGBTQ+ folks, while others act on false accusations they receive from third parties:
Innocent dad tortured and killed by group of chainsaw-wielding ‘paedophile hunters’
A gang of vigilantes tortured and killed a father of eight as they tried to force a confession out of him for crimes he didn’t commit.
The case of the brutal torture and murder of Bradley ‘BJ’ Lyons, which shook Australia in December 2018, is once again under the spotlight as a jury has brought to justice the gang leader, Albert Thorn, and some of his mates who helped during the hideous attack.
Mr Lyons was referred to the gang by his wife Jana Hooper, who had falsely accused her husband of sexually assaulting two of her teenage daughters.
Thorn, the leader of the vigilante gang with a specific hatred for paedophiles, was found guilty this month of the torture, imprisonment and murder of Mr Lyons. Later this year, he will face a pre-sentence hearing.
Two other members of the gang who took part in the ordeal, Jordan Bottom and Rikki Smith, were found not guilty last week of the killing of the father.And I can’t tell you how many times they just straight up confront the wrong person. Here’s one example, and here’s another, here’s one more, and here’s yet another.
These are not professionals. They are YouTubers looking for fame and relying on outrage and violence to get it, and they all-too-often don’t care who gets hurt or killed in the process.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution.English481·19 days agoSome of these “pedo hunter” groups have attacked completely innocent people where the accusation of someone being a pedo was completely unsubstantiated. This is the problem with monetizing vigilantism: It creates a demand, and if that demand is not being met by a supply of actual criminals, then it will be filled by vigilantes criminalizing innocent people.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows.English3·20 days agoYeah they’ve come out and said recently that even interacting with any content or comments that could so much as be perceived as being related to Luigi Mangione is a violation of Reddits policies against promoting violence. People have been getting warnings that their accounts are in danger of being permanently banned just for visiting certain subs. Not for posting. Not for commenting. Not even for voting. Just for visiting.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows.English7·21 days agoI had two main accounts. My oldest account got permabanned for a joke about Nick Fuentes. After his address got doxxed and he pepper sprayed a woman who rang his doorbell back in December of last year, I said “hey as an incel he should be happy that the ladies know where he lives now so they can share a cocktail with him”, and I added a cartoon gif of a Molotov. It was obviously a joke, but they said it was “promoting/glorifying violence”. I ate the bullet on that one because they were technically right, even if they were a bunch of humorless twats.
My other account got banned about a month ago when I up voted a comment that was just a picture of Luigi Luigi (the Nintendo character) smoking a cigarette. Again for “promoting/glorifying violence”.
Elon Musk is a weak little crybaby and Steve Huffman is a pathetic coward.

Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Buy European@feddit.uk•New isn't always better, tourism in Europe just seems nicer1·24 days agoCorrect. Just like Orlová is without a doubt worse than San Diego, because it’s an apples to oranges comparison.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Buy European@feddit.uk•New isn't always better, tourism in Europe just seems nicer41·24 days agoNew Prague is a small town in Minnesota with less than 10k people and has only been around for 150 years, and OP is comparing it with a city of almost a million and a half that has been around for over 700 years. It’s like watching Lebron James dunk on some middle school kid at the park and then mocking the kid for sucking at basketball.
Doctor_Satan@lemm.eeto Buy European@feddit.uk•New isn't always better, tourism in Europe just seems nicer36·25 days agoWhat a stupid post. Each one of those European cities has areas that look just as bad, if not worse, than the cherry picked images of their American counterparts.
America fucking sucks right now, but not because the worst parts of our cities don’t look like the best parts of European cities. This is some low effort bullshit.
And never, ever criticizing the Right. These people cheer for Trump more than the fucking MAGA crowd.
