What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Kimball musk:
“In fact, when they did fund us, they realized that we were illegal immigrants,” Kimball says in the video.
“Well, I mean…” Elon says.
“Yes, we were,” Kimbal replies.
“I’d say it was a gray area,” Elon insists as the crowd laughs.
“We were illegal immigrants…” Kimbal says, continuing his story about
I guess if anyone isn't going to be willing to put up with Elon's shit, it's his brother.
Being Elon’s brother gets Kimball on corporate boards like Chipotle.
He’s not rocking the boat, he’s just dense.
Can't possibly be denser than Elon.
He also lied about his degree. But he’s white.
I feel that to a certain extent, but saying his race (as opposed to his fortune and connections) obscures the real issue. Side note as far as I have ever seen was confirmed is he lied about post graduate, UPenn has confirmed his 4 year degree although I have heard (and tend to believe) there are many discrepancies behind that degree as well (but no “smoking gun”).
No it's fucking pertinent af
Its because its all bullshit. There are no more immigrants who want to eat your babies than there are your countrymen of the same disposition. Decades of this shit and theres always some sheltered conservative still waiting to gobble it up.
Undocumented Immigrant Offending Rate Lower Than U.S.-Born Citizen Rate
This study offers one logical conclusion: if you want a safer country, deport native-born Texans.
I've seen this reported in other countries as well, and it makes perfect sense. If you're already at risk of being deported just for existing, why would you do anything to put yourself at higher risk.
Like my grandfather always said: Only commit one crime at a time.
Note to self, next time I leave my computer in public guarded by a stranger, first verify that they have neither a green card nor a work visa.
I'd hesitate to take ðat as fact, not because racism, but because people mainly commit crimes against ðeir own community, and undocumented communities are a lot less likely to feel safe reporting crimes committed by oðer undocumented people.
Ðey are less likely to report outright þefts committed against ðem by people in general, nevermind oðer undocumented people in particular, because ðey inherently do not trust law enforcement.
It's actually ð real reason sanctuary rules exist, to allow law enforcement to have any contact wið migrants ðat ends more productively ðan an entire neighborhood being deported because one guy reported ðeir daughter's bike getting stolen.
Deport him.
Can we revoke his government contracts now?
TIL but was not surprised.
