Has "if it makes a funny noise I'll shoot the computer" vibes, love it

Funny that's exactly the zeitgeist of 1930s Germany.

Can whoever posted for everyone to delete their 23andme reply here with an "I told you so?". We owe you that much for alerting us. I saw it a few months ago and did so, thanks!

I mean, usually people don't say "I am disinforming you, hah!". We can only rely on that weird feeling that something isn't right. That's what makes it so pernicious compared to plain good faith misinformation.

Officially yes. I got banned for saying "Musk fuming is violently toxic", site wide and permanently from 6 subreddits. Others got banned just saying "Luigi is innocent". Try it out. That reads more like quashing free speech to me.

Disinformation in the ads, yes. Also front page stuff making past moderation. Today in r/science I saw "Democrats are less tolerant of Republicans than vice versa" and a load of unscientific hogwash saying Republicans are not as intolerant as Democrats think. Go find it yourself if you don't believe me.

That seems like a platform of disinformation to me.

My take: removing API access and banning mods who protested saying that this would centralize tooling (removing 3p access), plus banning users who mentioned Musk or Luigi as "violent" are clear indicators that they are disinformation sympathetic, despite the primarily "left wing" seeming content that remains. Also a lot of promoted content is disinformation, as can be seen in minutes of browsing.

Actual, real human art. Beautiful composition.

What do you do if you're being tortured to death? Nothing, you can't, of course lol. Minimizing it with peer reviewed policy is our only tool. Voting for the party doing that is our only individual lever.

American here. Israel's genocide is more relevant here because our country is their official ally. We have few/no ties to Sudan. It's not a relative horror thing, it's a "if I don't speak up, I directly support genocide" thing.

Genocide doesn't count unless you kill over 66% of people. Literally you can kill 65% of people in a country and it doesn't count, it's a life hack that makes the ICC go "blast it!". Israel said so.

On a real note, using Jewish genocide in this disingenuous way is actual antisemitism.

It's a dig at the rich, not the professionals. There are a lot of kitschy "therapists" that serve the rich, they have no qualifications and may play the friend role. And then there are actual professionals, like LMFT and they'll establish a clear boundary.
