Yeah maybe I missed the /s but I just wanted to show that body shaming and genital mutilation is fucked up and society’s (patriarchy) acceptance of it against men is pretty shitty overall. It would be much better if nobody got body shamed or mutilated non-consentually.
This is exactly it. Hurting things, destroying things, these are pleasurable behaviours. Look at how young children play, how we have to teach them to be gentle with animals until they can develop enough empathy to be trusted.
Empathy is what counterbalances the pleasure of sadism. If you feel bad you hurt something, that’s a pain that is much greater than the pleasure a normal person gains from sadism.
Some people, on purpose or by accident, have shitty empathy.
Yeah, I love how everyone loves “big dick energy” and “small dick energy”, but if someone said “loose pussy energy” and “tight pussy energy” it’s practically a hate crime lol.
The idea of letting young engineers at a university design production equipment is WILD to me. Universities make PROTOTYPES. The gap between prototype and reliable production equipment is so big you could drive a bus through it.
A good production engineer is worth their weight in gold but when you have shitty ones you’re better off letting the workers run the ship. At least they know what’s happening and where the hangups are. You’ll know a good engineer because they’re down talking to the lead hands on the shop floor because they want to understand what’s actually happening and run ideas through the shop before they fuck with things.
I use duck duck go as well. I wish it wasn’t just anonymised Bing search. One of these days I’ll look into an open source independent search engine.
And he can pardon them for all crimes and get back to what they were doing. No man, Trump is closer to ending the rule of law than anyone understands… We have to do the right stuff at the right time or were doing fuhrer 2 electric boogaloo by summer
I think it’s important to downvote them and even make them feel unwelcome. You can’t let Nazis and white supremacists in your communities because any community that doesn’t kick out Nazis will eventually find itself overrun by Nazis fleeing communities that kick them out.
You don’t need to argue or make a fuss, but make sure to downvote anyone who doesn’t believe all people are born equal and that people have a right to choose what to do and who to love.
Once they’re primaried, people can vote for whoever is the better candidate.
47% of Americans today APPROVE of what Trump is doing. You really think he’s going to have a hard time finding a couple thousand people to do his most heinous stuff? You’re going to convince people to say no?
Be real.

Wow that isn’t in good faith AT ALL. Downvotes aren’t bans.
You don’t have a right to an audience, if people don’t like what you have to say, they don’t have to listen. They can also let you know if you’re a shit person. Maybe give you an opportunity to reflect and have personal growth.
This type of “we must tolerate the intolerant” energy is how Reddit became neo-fascist. First being against DEI and Palestinians is a heinous political position. Second of all people who are against DEI believe it’s racism, if he’s okay with private institutions using what he believes are racist policies, that’s a heinous position.
What you’re basically reading is: “I’m a racist, and I think private institutions should be able to have policies I think are racist”
Yeah that’s a no from me.
1kN is equivalent to lifting 100kg… 220lb for our imperial friends… I don’t think I could put that much force on a plate and bowl I was trying not to break
I read the article, I saw the interview. He literally said “was there any love?.. Like there was in Germany”
What I skipped is only a description of what Trump thinks love is (extra piece of bread and a wink) and that hamas didn’t do it. The two clauses are literally directly connected.
I know it’s hard to believe that’s what he said. Unfortunately you’ll have to accept it to deal with the modern reality.
I knew this thread would be FILLED with Trump apologist. He literally said “was there any love?.. Like there was in Germany”
It’s not taking it too far. It’s what he said. We don’t need to figure out if he meant a prison guard or Germans in general. We don’t need to excuse what he meant by adding precision he didn’t add. According to Trump there was love for Jews in Nazi Germany.
I’m so glad to see at least a few people resisting the sanewashing.
We’re not trying to boycott EVERY corporations. We’re voting with our wallets for the lesser evil the same way we vote at the ballots for the lesser evil.
That’s an uneducated take. The amount of goods and services required by a population as a whole isn’t affected by boycotts. What one company loses others will replace since they have a profit motive to do so. This requires them to hire additional labour which can easily come from what labour boycotted companies lay off.
That’s assuming a boycott has such a large impact as to require a workforce adjustment which is basically a fantasy scenario in most cases.
Stop convincing people into more apathy than is already plaguing us.
If left wing people and normal people mark it neutral, and right wing people mark it far left, the average will be a left bias for the meter. These kinds of “fairness meters” assume everyone is acting in good faith and the right is never acting in good faith.
This is why we can’t have nice things.
No that’s not what I’m talking about, it’s hardly even relevant since as you said it was before Trump.
There was no successful vote of non confidence… Just the conservatives putting on a show knowing they didn’t have the votes. Singh promised to topple the government on the next vote, but Parliament wasn’t in session, so he didn’t have the chance. The liberals called an election robbing Singh of the chance to topple government.
I’m talking about after the tariff war started. Singh is part of the government. Right now it’s a minority Liberal government, the only reason we’re in that position is that Singh agreed to ally with the government in exchange for concessions, which was excellent statesmanship and fighting for the average Canadian. When Trump announced tariffs Singh was attacking the liberals more than the cons did. To fight against your allies at a time of crisis is in poor taste. You might not think that’s in poor taste but there was an IMMEDIATE cratering of NDP support so Canadians CLEARLY think it’s in poor taste. They went from 24 seats to polling as low as 3. Sure polls aren’t everything, but they do tell you what Canadians think of his decisions.
I’d say going from 24 seats to 3 is “shat the bed” and I only hope one of those 3 is my riding.
That’s not how it works. If the conservatives can’t get a majority, the liberals can form a minority government with the NDP or greens. This is what our government currently looks like and it got us dental healthcare. Minority governments can be very effective at creating social change, especially when most Canadians have to be dragged kicking and screaming into policies that benefit them.
Yeah, it’s like the other commenters all identified that Lemmy is based on communities not users, but stopped JUST SHORT of coming to the right conclusion. Community QR codes!
