polite leftists make more leftists

more leftists make revolution

  • An unelected billionaire is gunning for Social Security. Get Musk out, now.

    Jump

  • I do not understand why the fact that Musk is "unelected" matters so much to everyone. Is the Secretary of Defence elected? The Attorney General?

  • Musk melts down as Tesla stock price plunges

    Jump

  • Ah I see. I think you can understand my confusion though -- this guy has two knees bent, both at almost the same angle.

    Jump

  • out of curiosity, can you explain what physical stance has only one knee bent? Like, a lunge..? Genuinely new to this expression.

  • Israeli student arrested for Nazi salute at Auschwitz during school trip

  • If it had been an American teenager, I doubt there would have been an article posted at all. But if there had been, I doubt such a comment would be downvoted.

    I feel like a similar proportion of teenagers from Israel and America are idiots like this one. I remember many teenagers from my highschool (Canada) who would be this kind of dumb. Based on this, I don't see why people would react differently to my comment, though maybe it'd come across different if the reader is American, not sure. (I think I'd make the same inference about Canadian high schooler as another country's though.)

    ...that said, I do agree with you. I have noticed for instance that Japanese high schoolers in public seem to be incredibly polite compared to Canadian ones. You can make a small inference perhaps about the high schools from a country based on a single point of data like this. But -- I don't think this really says very much about the disposition toward Nazism (of the original German trappings) in the general Israeli public.

  • But it wasn't just sports, he also agreed that minors shouldn't be allowed to transition. Forcing a minor to go through one type of puberty when they wish to go through a different kind IMO is torture. Regret rates for transitioning are extremely low, and even if you do regret it you're no worse off than someone who regrets not transitioning.

  • This is an idiotic teenager and should have no bearing on your opinion of Israel. (I shouldn't have to say this, but if I don't somebody will m'accuse: please note that I'm not defending Israel.)

  • In my region, people use "talented" as a compliment, not necessarily to indicate their skill was not hard-won.

  • Here we have somebody being polite and engaging in politics@lemmy.world. I come to this community because I wish to talk to people who are more right-wing than me. Let's not shoo them away please.

  • Surprise! People don't want AI deciding who gets a kidney transplant and who dies or endures years of misery

    Jump

  • Let's get more kidneys out there instead with tax credits for donors.

  • Scientists aiming to bring back woolly mammoth create woolly mice

    Jump

  • I am skeptical of all articles with "scientists" in the title... but those mice are really cute. 😙

    Jump

  • I have never played loot box / gambling / gacha games. I will admit that I have given in and I do play games with DRMs, which are most games these days.

    I agree that games shouldn't have those ant-user elements, but since I don't play them, why should I tell other people what they can and can't do?

  • I like playing video games...
