The justice is the imprisonment. People are not sentenced to be raped, tortured or murdered by other inmates, and the prison system should go through any and all pains necessary to prevent such things from occurring.
Ordinarily I would agree with you. But a parent killing their kids? Nah, fuck that. Your justice might be the imprisonment. I hope she catches more than few hot beat downs.
You can reform crimes of necessity, like stealing to buy food. This person might have a brain defect. Either something genetic or even a brain tumor. It might be fixable with treatments. It might not be.
I mean, I could have just offered myself up to be corrupted by these “immoral” instruments. If they didn’t want the instruments around, they could have let me take them.
Honest question, what do they do for fun? It seems like basically every Western recreational activity is banned and their jihad is over, so how do these people occupy the time?
Somehow it manages to be worse every day. What’s happening there is extremely sad and the worst thing is that there doesn’t seem to be light at the end of the tunnel.
Unsurprisingly given its extremely high profile as a purveyor of transphobic coverage, many mastodon instances have greeted them with a firm block. (If this confuses folks who don’t pay attention to this sort of thing, just picture in your head if it was fox news.)
The BBC is actively transphobic, and regularly publishes transphobic content that stirs up hate. Given that I admin two trans heavy instances, I won’t be federating with them
I’ve also been looking. I see other websites complaining, but I want to see actual BBC content that’s inflamatory etc, as I can’t find anything. It must exist, but so far, can’t find it.
Well honestly, if it can’t be sourced, is it even true? I’m all for burning a media outlet at the stake. But, I’d want to see evidence first. If it can’t be found, it’s not true for all intent and purpose.
There are links to various articles about it in this discussion tree. You’re either not looking hard for sources, or you’re being disingenuous. I hope it’s the former, but experience tells me it’s the latter.
Aside from the symbolic action (that can only be seen by looking for what isn’t there), what does this accomplish? (And yes, I do note that the symbolic action is important in of itself).
Alternatively, if I wanted to follow @[email protected] in Lemmy (universeodon is a Mastodon instance), how can I get him in my timeline?
As far as I can tell, removing a mastodon instance (in this case social.bbc) from from linked instances in Lemmy has absolutely no impact on what someone will see in subscribed, local, or federated timelines.
I admin a lemmy instance and a regular fediverse instance, both of which are focused towards the queer and gender diverse communities. Blocking transphobia from the feeds of trans folk isn’t symbolic, even though it’s less relevant on lemmy
Ok but not everything revolves around trans people’s issues. Can we be glad for a positive development for once, or will we remove everything that does not 100% agree with our view of the world from the fediverse?
Defederating isn’t irrational, it’s not a matter of personal beliefs it’s a matter of actual people’s lives and being allowed to express themselves. Going against that is inhumane and anyone that does it should be held accountable for their actions. Despite that, mainstream attention direcred towards the fediverse is a positive advancement.
Logical decision on the part of a journalistic medium, given that the fediverse has many more sources of information than a monolithic Big Brother traditional social network with mainstream users.
