An article featuring a bunch of twitter comments and the yahoo comments are disabled

I wonder what yahoo comments would have said on the topic with substantially greater volume 🤔


yahoo comments have been disabled for about 9 months now. on ALL articles.

they got brigaded by readers commenting "who cares" and "world is in crisis and u care about how much Madonna's pajamas are" and similar.

ive seen brigades with right wingers, trans brigades, etc. this wasnt that, it was just people fed up with how shit they are. so they shut off comments LOL

it was actually funny to see the comment sections be completely opposite of whatever the author(s) were pushing

i mean yahoo! has some real wackos in even their streamlined stuff. like their economics/finance main dude is a total emotional dweeb who was crying that the sky was falling from 2015-2019. actually he has always been like that, fucking miserable wannabe bear. then in 2020 he was actually happy when the downturns started with covid and was gleefully blaming the usual suspects for it. you can imagine how that went over lmao.

San Francisco is doing the right thing has eliminated noted racists "Abraham Lincoln" and "George Washington" from the school district. Dianne Feinstein was not sufficiently woke, and has been banned as well.

should have saved money and just added "Carver" after the GW school so they could keep all of the uniforms/signs.

why would government do that

The claim: San Francisco will rename Abraham Lincoln High School because he did not show 'black lives mattered to him'

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States. He led the Union through the Civil War, and freed most of the nation's slaves with the Emancipation Proclamation.


e: Abraham Lincoln removed for having a namesake tied to racism and slavery, and because he didnt tweet black lives matter?? that 1619 project really changed history didnt it :lol:

I imagine (or at least hope) this gets thrown out before it ever sees trial.

e/ Oh god it already happened. God I hate our justice system... more times than not.
