I have some great ideas: improve education, reduce inequality, introduce preferential voting.

Seriously though, these problems are occuring the world over. I'm not an anthropologist but IMO the root cause is income inequality. Basically the working class are increasingly dissatisfied and the frustration manifests in very strange ways. There's no fix for this other than societal collapse as a result of economic, environmental, or societal unrest. This part of the cycle will probably take 300 years or so, depending on the whole climate change thing.

They'd only get thrown in jail if they weren't willing to bend over for the new regime, and they've already shown that they're very willing to do that.

that point is nearly impossible to define

As with any law, there will undoubtedly be cases in which it is difficult to discern whether or not a law has been broken, but courts decide on innocence or guilt in such cases every day. A jury would be asked to decide whether a a reasonable third party is likely to conclude on the balance of probabilities that the image depicts a person who is under 18.

Whether or not the depicted person is real or imagined is not relevant in many / most jurisdictions.

Since no one else has said it... 80 days podcast:

80 Days is a podcast dedicated to exploring little-known countries, territories settlements and cities around the world. We're part history podcast, part geography podcast and part ramble. Each episode, we'll land in a new locale and spend some time discussing the history, geography, culture, sport, religion, industry, pastimes and music of our new location.

I listened to a couple of episodes about 6 years ago. They weren't that great.

I was wondering about this, like deep down inside does she really believe that this is the path to a better world? Doubtful.

I guess I'm kind of asking / supposing, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if lemmy / activitypub doesn't really work that way.

As in, posts to feddit.uk are stored on feddit.uk. If you read a thread from sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected] then sh.itjust.works server will pull it down from feddit.uk and show you the post. It may even cache a copy of the post to show it to another user, but that's not the same as backing up the post.

What data do you want backed up though ?

That's not how the fediverse works.

I was gonna say. the phrase "double income no kids" arose in the 90s when "single income + kids" was a possibility.

Well he's a podcaster... and here we are talking about him. I'm certain that his numbers will enjoy a bump.

Why does he feel that it's relevant here? I don't really follow that part.

 

This 404 page deserves a laugh in these troubled times.

 

You should know this because finding communities on lemmy can be tough.
