  • Is there also Kate Becknotforsale?

  • Nope, I have been using Notesnook for nearly three years for notes.

  • This reminds me of a straight pride event titled "Hetero Pride" that was organized in Finland way back in 2013. One of the organizers was a deputy regional councillor and Finns Party member. He claimed how society and the media over-emphasized homosexuality, calling it "homozation". He also claimed how it was hard to defend the traditional family model without being labelled homophobic and racist.

    The event was held near the Parliament House in Helsinki. There were whole a lot more counter-protesters and some came to the event mainly because it was more like "popcorn pride". One of the speakers at the event literally said in his speech how "we don't have anything against homosexuals, but..." and another said something about how "the Bible states that marriage is only between a man and a woman". One speaker was later asked about "what privileges do gays have these days", and he just replied "I have to be honest, I can't say anything about that".

    "The tiger can't change its stripes." The organizer mentioned later posed in a picture with five other men who made a Nazi salute – one of them was Seppo Lehto, an infamous Neo-Nazi. He also made a Nazi salute himself in another picture, this time wearing a Hitler mask. When called out, he said "I'm not in that picture. I wasn't there. I don't know where these kinds of clips came from." He later admitted being in the picture, claiming how he hadn't made a Nazi salute: "It's just a normal salute with the left hand. The official Nazi salute is with the right hand at a 45 degree angle."

    The explanation wasn't enough for the Finns Party, and as a consequence he was fired from the party's regional council because of homophobia. Later he also resigned from the party.

  • Why there are no movies about sperm bank robberies?

  • 2020 never ended. There is no "normalcy" to return to.

  • Locked

  • Dang it! Lemm.ee was formed in summer 2023 alongside the other instances that became the Lemmyverse's biggest, sad to see it go. Thank you for everything!

  • That Carlin clip has been circulated in various alternative medicine quackery communities for a long time, I doubt RFK Jr. has any media literacy. The similar notion has somewhat entered in mainstream discourse with the concept of "immunity debt".

  • I think RFK thinks that swimming in contaminated water somehow helps build immunity.

  • There's WriteFreely for example. There's also Plume, but looks like it's not actively maintained anymore.

  • Thanks for showing me that, fixed!

  • 2019 alone might as well be 10 years ago.

  • Next year it will be ten years since Harambe died.

  • This seems to be like a recent moral panic here in Finland about therian kids in schools.

  • This headline might as well be from The Babylon Bee.

  • Actually Sopuli was founded in February 2021. Few months after Lemmy's federation got out of beta phase.

  • Excatly. Sopuli has become the instance for all things Finland, so that community would be more than welcome!
