Jeff Vaughn, a former KCBS/KCAL news anchor, is suing Paramount Global and CBS after he was fired last September. He claims his dismissal was in line with Paramount's DEI goals, and that he was let go because he is a straight, white male. thedesk.net/news/jeff-va...

“Anyone can copy it.” So, basically, all Microsoft products that are on the web? Totally fair game for you to copy.

I feel like a lot of people could take that advice, but my replies are flooded with people yelling at me instead of writing to their electeds. Seems like wasted energy, I agree. But, you know, that's the Internet for you.

I never said my personal perspective was representative of everyone else's. It sounds like you need to take your own advice, sit down and shut the fuck up. These are conversations for adults, not petty children, so you should definitely sit this one out.

Are Black inmates the only ones who are forced to do prison label? (Spoiler alert: The answer is no. All inmates are forced to work while they are in prison.) So, I'm still not getting what your point is. You seem to be arguing against comments that no one made.

Unless, what you're trying to say is that white people can't be homeless? That sounds out of touch with reality, too.

I'm not seeing in the original post where race was a factor, so that doesn't really seem relevant here. The original poster painted all homeless people with a broad brush, and characterized their situation and the potential impact of the SCOTUS decision with an alarmist tone.

Okay, but, still, where did I say I was unconcerned with the private prison industry? That's not mentioned anywhere.

Not seeing a mention of race anywhere in the original post, but seeing it a lot in the comments... Anyway, I stand by what I said.

Sounds like a very nuanced and prejudicial assumption to make. Doesn't sound like something that would come from an ally of anything.

Oh, I've upset more stupid people on Bluesky, that population appears to be growing by the day. Twitter was never like this in its early years, but Bluesky has definitely cultivated a "type," and it isn't the type anyone wants to actually meet in person.

Of course not, but that isn't the issue here. The issue is an alarmist post that paints the entire situation with a broad brush, is based on no concrete evidence, and is out of touch with reality.
