U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris has repeatedly claimed that she worked at McDonald’s while getting her undergraduate degree in the 1980s. This claim has been reported by multiple reputable news outlets, but aside from Harris’ own testimony, there is no independent evidence such as a photo, employment record, or confirmation from a friend or family member to verify the story. Harris has invoked the alleged McDonald’s work experience throughout her political career, including in a 2024 presidential campaign ad and during a 2024 appearance on “The Drew Barrymore Show.” Other prominent Democrats, such as former President Bill Clinton, have also repeated the anecdote. However, some internet users have challenged the claim, with unverified reports that “McDonald’s Corporate sources” have no record of Harris working at their locations. Snopes reached out to Harris’ campaign and McDonald’s headquarters seeking evidence to corroborate the claim, but as of the report’s publication, no such proof has been uncovered. Without tangible evidence to independently confirm or debunk the story, Snopes has rated the claim “Research In Progress” as they continue to investigate.
I’m done with this conversation. Made my point. Several times. We’re done.
And ya know what? I have a really strong sense that you’ll figure out who that guy that is stalking me is. Like a really really strong sense. You know what I mean?
Tell him I said hi, will ya? And that he’s still not breaking me. Even under his other account names. Oh and let him know that I have some more articles I’m posting, so he can prepare to log under his different accounts to get ready to downvote!
I mean, if you come across him, and all. You know, just doing your average things on Lemmy. I feel confident in your ability to really understand him.
I feel really, really, really strongly that you will understand exactly what he wants to accomplish. But hey, remain civil, right?! :)
What happened to this? I don’t think I disrespected you or your views; I was just trying to learn more about them.
I’m blocking you now. And ya know why. :)
That’s a shame 😞
You know, it’s funny. From what I understand, on Reddit, blocking someone means they can no longer see your content but on Lemmy it works the exact opposite where I can see your content but you can’t see mine.
I believe this difference is quite a point of contention in moderation theory circles.
