  • “In Hungary we have some examples of extreme right bands becoming mainstream because they’re on the top 40 chart. I mean, what’s more normal than being on the top 40?”

    But which songs/bands? Are you saying its like a whole studio/record company pushing this?

    “I have a stepson who sometimes sends videos and then I go down the rabbit hole to see who created them and it turns out it’s a far-right influencer.”

    But which creators/influencers do we need to be on watch for?

    “They’ve also started their own food delivery,” she said. “It’s just wild that you can be ordering food from the far right and not know.”

    Do you mean the whole service is far-right? Can I get the names of services to avoid?

    This article feels like it lacks substance. It seems to be saying “There’s bad guys out there. I’m not going to tell you who or where, but they’re there. Just trust me bro”. (In all fairness, they do point to tradwife influencers, but I assumed that was known).

    That’s not to say that they haven’t actually found sources of right wing influence in each of these areas, but I was really hoping they’d bring the receipts on it.

    I don’t suppose anyone here can point to examples of what they’re talking about with any of these? (Again, I’m aware of the tradwife stuff, so I’m good skipping that point).



  • On the one hand, it sucks that sometimes really bad people who’ve done really bad things go free because of a seemingly minor technicality.

    On the other, there’s a set process to help keep the law fair. Miranda rights and the need to voice them to suspects when they’re arrested exist because police will totally take advantage of arrestees, and because police have acted unethically towards ignorant people who don’t know what rights they retain when arrested.

    I’m confident Luigi didn’t need a reminder of his rights when arrested, but if the cops really thought they were arresting the killer of that United Health CEO, then there’s no excuse for them not bringing their A-game with how high profile it was all bound to be. It’d be really embarrassing for them if they missed that tiny detail.

    Edit: spelling/grammar
