This is almost the exact playbook that got Abortion unbanned in Ireland (which is heavily Catholic). The average American conservative when polled, is against elective abortions; but they're generally fine with abortions for medical reasons. And for 20 years the Pro-life crowd has garnered their support by claiming "nobody wants to force women to die in childbirth". Now that that's clearly a lie that's the truth that needs to be pushed. And I believe it will be effective.

"We don't" is the short answer. It's unfortunate, but true.

Maybe the home of Wall Street, the world's largest market, isn't Communist.

China built an economy that's like 50% based on bullshitting to your superiors about how much infrastructure you built.

A more accurate term would be that they ransom the functionality of the product they sold until you pay the ransom.

Can't raise a family in Texas. Too many millennials are just now at 35+ in a fiscal position to have kids and there's elevated chances of complications at that age. Texas just passed a law that says they'd rather you die than receive the care you might need.

A big part of detecting bullshit is having the experience of getting burned by bullshit.

When Donald Trump first claimed the election was rigged. The Republican led Michigan state legislature, prior to deciding electors, invited him and his cabinent to present their evidence at an open session of their legislature; with the implications that if indeed there was legitimate evidence of widespread fraud in the state of Michigan they would use their Constitutional right to choose electors to modify who they sent to Congress.

Trump didn't show, he didn't send a representative he sent zero evidence. He was 100% hot air then, he's 100% hot air now.

They're about to find out that gen Z has horrible penmanship.

Lemmy needs a middle logical layer to really take off. If a local server moderats it as such, the default view for say /c/technology shouldn't be slit across a dozen instances. Instead it should be merged into one view.

Without it you have a bunch of largely stagnant communities.
