UFC Fighter Declares “Michelle Obama Is a Man” After Winning Match at White House - Lemmy.zip

That website is a pile of toxic javascripts that I’m not willing to navigate, but I’m vaguely curious what kind of spin or context Hokit was trying to add. I could actually see it as some kind of bumbling compliment, but my confidence isn’t super-high on that for the time being.

Btw, that fight he just had looked abysmal, with his opponent Derrick Lewis looking like he completely skipped training camp, but did make to sure to hit an all-you-can-eat buffet on his way there. Holy hell, that was bad…

Umatrix, noscript or libreJS would solve that for you.

uMatrix absolutely did not solve that for me, mainly because unlike others, it was never designed to do that automatically. Fact is, I simply got tired of fishing around for the right javascript out of ~two dozen to enable.

Now if it was more than just a fluff article, that might have been worth such persistence…

yeah I quickly switched to reader view, but the headline is actually enough
Aw… FF browser doesn’t seem to have a reader mode, but there is some kind of ‘preview mode’ that I’m now checking out. It seems to generate bullet-points from the text…
Firefox does have reader mode. It is the little page icon in the address bar

Ah, okay. It’s selectively appearing. I get it, thanks.

Some other info is suggesting that F9 can also work.

Yeah I’m not sure what determines it but sometimes it isn’t available. For me it is for the linked site though

Are fucking kidding? The “Michelle Obama is trans” bullshit has been circulating online for like 15+ years.

There is no “spin” or “context”

Huh. I never heard that one.
Or maybe because it was a case of rubbish in–>rubbish out? *shrug*

So, no… I wasn’t fucking kidding. 🙂

@JohnnyEnzyme @stumu415 this is a very typical alt-right talking point that Barack Obama actually married a man named Michael.

It started from the era of appreciating Michelle Obama's arms and her musculature. While the daytime talk shows we're talking about what's your workout routine, the alt right was saying that's mighty suspicious for a woman to be working out to have arms that big, probably just have man tendencies.

And they've been running with it for over a decade now.

Okay, thanks for explaining!

Normally I guess I’d call it “idiocy,” except it’s clearly been weaponized. 😑
