They literally already do that without term limits. McConnell made it the Republican partyβs entire platform.

There should absolutely be term limits!

To βcontinueβ to take action, you would have needed to take action in the first place, which has only happened after extreme pressure from users, and often only after community members did the work themselves and wrote much-needed patches.

This is the most organized anger towards anti-racism I've seen ever on social media.
And all that was needed was an apology.
Really thought this place cared more about being able to still exist which it wonβt without getting this together but I guess being antiBlack was more important to them.

13.07.2023 20:14 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Yeah, although we still usually know the percentage we got. So if you get an F thatβs a 59%, it really sucks.
We also add pluses and minuses to complicate things further. So like 67-69% is a D+ and 60-62% is a D-.
Yes, generally. Although there are some limitations if you get a D, which may lead to the need to retake the class. A through D are basically equivalent to 10 through 6, or 100% through 60%. And an F is equivalent to 5 through 1 or anything less than 60%.

Good.
If I check your profile and see that you havenβt been boosting black voices and calling out antiblackness, I will consider blocking or at least muting you. Yes, itβs that simple.
Silence is complicity.
