Honestly we were screwed long before now, but yes. Its going to be a slow decline into fascism until we collectively wise up. I do think there’s a real possibility of that happening, but its going to take a lot of work.

How can people figure out email, but lemmy is just too complicated?
Taiwan is only strategically important to the us because it manufactures those chips. Trump’s goal is to increase production in the us, so we aren’t forced to intervene when mainland China comes for them.
No, because Facebook is not explicitly designed for the sole purpose of illegal transactions. Very clear difference.
I think its slightly dishonest to frame this as him simply “creating a website”. He created a marketplace to sell drugs on, I just don’t understand the sympathy. I feel bad for low level drug dealers in jail, this guy not so much.
I would agree it could’ve been handled differently, same with every other aspect of the war on drugs. But celebrating this guy is a step too far for me.
Why are people in support of this guy?
He is a hired attorney.
They know the motive, they just don’t have enough proof to say it publicly. They like to keep things vague.
He has a website where you can pay to hear him yell at you.
Because people receiving the death penalty theoretically did something wrong, and fetuses did not. I’m neither against abortion nor pro death penalty, and I don’t really see a contradiction there.
Yeah its just you. I like to judge people based on their actions instead of their race and name.
Irrelevant to what? Their race is relevant to some things and not others. The race of those two men is not relevant to this specific situation. If they did something wrong, it wouldn’t suddenly be right if they were a different race, and vice versa.
Those two men who’s race is irrelevant by the way, do all of the actual work of making a textbook. I think its ok that they expect that work to be treated as their own.
This is only a big deal because it reminds people of actual injustices natives suffered at the hands of white people
Maybe they should just write their own textbook. Seriously, imagine asking someone to do the monumental task of creating a textbook on a nearly undocumented language, and then expecting them not only to provide as many copies as you want for free but also not to copyright it. Completely fucking delusional.
The language belongs to them, not the textbooks. Why would you have the rights to a book you didn’t write, that is about something you own? What were they expecting?
Usually children know when they are sensitive to those things and can avoid them pretty well. How should a child know they are more sensitive than others to potential negative effects of capsaicin?Also, this brand of spicy ramen will be a lot easier to get rid of than literally everyone that produces peanuts, milk, and shrimp.
Maybe we could find a way to test kids and see if they are susceptible, and then coach them to avoid this ramen at all costs, but that’s a lot more work than simply recalling the product that is poisoning children.
Ok, then I agree it shouldn’t be sold anywhere.
Unless it is demonstrated to be genuinely dangerous, it should be sold as normal. If no one liked them, they wouldn’t sell.
It will essentially fill that need for them outside of anything Musk does short of rendering the service unavailable.
That honestly wouldn’t surprise me at this point. I can’t imagine advertisers are very happy about his terrible leadership. If he makes a few more blunders I think things could go south pretty fast. Especially with threads being a potential alternative that has a lower barrier to entry than something like mastodon, it would be a smoother transition than it would be otherwise.
Maybe its just wishful thinking, but I do think the death of twitter is a possibility.
I’m just hoping we can sort things out before it gets as bad as Nazi Germany was. Maybe I’m being overly optimistic, but having a defeatist attitude certainly won’t help our chances.
