Israel =/= Judaism

There are Jews who don’t like the government of Israel, and Israelis critical of their own country.

Regardless of the debate of whether admins should be legally liable for not deleting unknown child abuse digital files,

Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t think seeing a small number of pictures is going to scar you for life. I’ve seen goatse. I’ve seen people decapitated. It’s not pleasant, and I avoid those things, but it’s not scarring.

You shouldn’t use your own experiences to make this generalisation, given that people working at agencies prosecuting pederasts often have to receive therapy or even leave the job after continued exposure.

I am disturbed that people are afraid of unused images hiding on their Lemmy server.

Don’t you think it’s logical for someone to be worried about being vulnerable to being accused of what likely is, in many legal systems, a crime?

Lemmy devs may have controversal political views, but their software is written with a good intention. KiwiFarms on the other hand use it to target instances.

Let’s go even further than that. Let’s say that the most annoying people around the whole Fediverse are Hexbear. On the worst days, all they do is to organize to spam specific threads, which is indeed annoying, but that’s the extent of it. KiwiFarms is responsible for harassing people until they commit suicide for the heinous crime of being weird. Anyone aware of this who wants to associate with them has no place in civilized society.

Watch me supporting human rights in the global south by reads notes arming religious fanatics who want to turn women into cattle

This post is difamation against goblins.

Absolutely based.

Prior to WWII, there were a lot of different conflicts where most of the main actors in WWII were involved. Spanish civil war with the coupists supported by the nazis, Germany annexing Austria and Czechia, Russia trying to occupy Finland, Italy doing whatever the fuck Italy was doing… Of course, that doesn’t mean that a world war is a necessary conclusion, but I wouldn’t blame anyone for thinking it’s a hint.

If the citizens supported getting the president out, why not vote for it? Coups in democracies are almost always the instrument of those who cannot win elections.

To put it succinctly: you don’t debate a fanatic to convince them, you do it to convince the spectators.

Women experience a fair amount of harassment in the open league. They aren’t forbidden from participating, but the environment discourages it, so they set up a women’s league too.

If there wasn’t widespread cognitive damage amongst a fair bunch of male players and organizers, they could implement a far more sensible solution: punishing harassment.

None of y’all are getting it. Trans women have an unfair advantage in chess because they can turn the king into another queen.

It becomes less stupid the moment you realize Elon is angry some people are allowed not to have his bullshit forced down their throats. Then everything starts to make sense.

The pandemic got exacerbated in the US because of Trump’s dumbfuck negationist policies, but even countries with far tougher positions suffered pretty bad cases of COVID.

At first, Mobile authorities said they did not believe the relationship was sexual in nature, but they’ve since released two letters Crow wrote that suggest otherwise, including a love letter to the teen for Valentine’s Day. In that note, he professed his love for her, claimed they’re married, and said he tried to steal her some flowers from a Virgin Mary statue, “but there were too many people around.” (…) “Before we fell in love,” the priest wrote, “I promised to always care for you and protect you, like a father. I still look at you and see a child, but in the best way imaginable. You are mine - no one else’s, and I will always be a father to you until I die.”

Holy smokes, the Virgin Mary and fucking Mickey Mouse, this guy couldn’t make it more obvious that he was a pedophile from the very start if he hired an aircraft fleet to explicitely skywrite it.

Fair, I shall accept this as a measure of human progress.

Remember that you can do mourning in different ways. Even if you don’t attend the rite most people will, you can ask someone (such as your grandma) to take a walk through the cementery, or wherever the ashes were thrown. That’s also a form of mourning.

Not me. I walked out. The worst part is, I’m still expected to go subject myself to this psychological torture again and again, every time somebody I love dies or gets married or has a baby. Those moments which should be the most important to us, the saddest and the happiest, misappropriated by mystical thugs for the sake of extorting protection money from the people.

Just don’t enter the church or chapel. When asked why, be completely honest: you have suffered in other occasions from having to sit in to listen to a priest taking advantage of the death of a beloved being to praise his own organization, and you do not want to take part in that. This attitude will be understood as rebellious, misguided and disrespectful. It is also the first stone for others to start questioning why they want a priest to give a speech whenever someone dies at all.

Also due to Islam. They’re about 50% to 50%.

I really believe God will break you down until you have no choice but to trust in him.

And this is good! This is totally normal behavior for a loving being! He only wants me to follow the right path! Out of my own choice, through my own free will and everything!

Jokes aside, this person has gone through some shit, and rather than getting therapy, she is doubling down.

Not as meritorious as you, who are working hard on publishing your dumbfuck comments for everyone else to suffer secondhand embarrassment.
