kinda tiring having the “allegedly” discussion over and over

i_ben_fine ,

pineapplelover doesn’t look like a bot. I think some people just get Facebook brain where they do engagement without thinking.

i_ben_fine ,

actually sounds like a fun hobby

i_ben_fine OP ,

You’re not wrong

i_ben_fine ,

This sounds like snake oil in response to snake oil

The main source for this is Amnesty International page 76. The relevant text:

In an effort to improve cost-efficiency, Chinese provincial authorities are introducing mobile execution vans in which convicts are given a lethal injection, replacing the traditional execution method of firing squads. Eighteen mobile executions vans, converted 24-seater buses, were distributed to all intermediate courts and one high court in Yunnan province in 2003. In December of the same year, the Supreme People’s Court in Beijing urged all provinces to acquire execution vans “that can put to death convicted criminals immediately after sentencing”. The windowless execution chamber at the back contains a metal bed on which the prisoner is strapped down. Once the needle is attached by a technician, a police officer presses a button and an automatic syringe injects the lethal drug into the prisoner’s vein. The execution can be watched on a video monitor next to the driver’s seat and can be recorded if required.

And I think barsquid’s point is that China is keeping their imprisoned-per-capita low through executions. Even if that’s incorrect, China does use execution more liberally than the U.S. And execution is evil.

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy’s massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It’s been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let’s say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they’re what’s colloquially referred to...

Would rather have .ml or hexbear than whatever this is

1,000 Harvard Students Walk Out of Commencement to Support 13 Seniors Barred from Graduation over Gaza (www.democracynow.org)

More than a thousand Harvard students walked out of their commencement ceremony yesterday to support 13 undergraduates who were barred from graduating after they participated in the Gaza solidarity encampment in Harvard Yard....

It is already a real genocide. Israel just bombed tents in Rafah, causing a child to be beheaded.

i_ben_fine ,

I don’t think this take is consistent with understanding Israel as a colonial project.

i_ben_fine ,

Oh no! somebody criticized Biden!

i_ben_fine ,

after he’s elected

what?

i_ben_fine ,

What are you going to do about it?

i_ben_fine ,

Upload is also good.

i_ben_fine ,

I don’t think any major news sources confirm your theory.

They likely used a metabolic calculator online, but if you track your Total Daily Energy Expenditure you can get a more accurate, personal estimate.

i_ben_fine ,

mock?

i_ben_fine ,

Mothers need to start supporting their daughters. My mom had this attitude too and it made things so much worse.

i_ben_fine ,

I’m currently trying to retrieve my local gym’s Facebook feed as RSS so I don’t have to be on Facebook. It bites.

i_ben_fine ,

gross

i_ben_fine ,

Does the unlabeled galaxy emoji combine with anything?

i_ben_fine ,

Also, what does it mean that wedding + punch = bride?

i_ben_fine ,

conspiracy theory: big companies only do this when they’re getting ready to implement unpopular decisions so their precious white men don’t get blamed.

i_ben_fine ,

I acknowledge the complicated relationship Jews have with whiteness.

i_ben_fine ,

Committing felonies is really hot.

i_ben_fine ,

Silly question: is there a community for real, sailing piracy?

i_ben_fine ,

stupid sealioning.

i_ben_fine ,

Yeah, you’re doing that in this thread. Pretty good example.

i_ben_fine ,

That data is a very good guess, but not appropriate for legal application.

i_ben_fine ,

My library offers Mango Languages.

i_ben_fine ,

we all know who Epstein worked for

we don’t

i_ben_fine ,

Which of the dead kids were responsible for building weapons?

i_ben_fine ,

I don’t like engaging in negativity on lemmy, but you’re an idiot. People with student loan debt aren’t rich.

i_ben_fine ,

Stop passing out Ws for nothing.

i_ben_fine ,

Which reminds me: when is Mitch McConnell going to finally die?

Just before an election.

i_ben_fine ,

Kortal Wormbar?

i_ben_fine ,

My first exposure to this story implied it might have been western traders, not Hamas.

i_ben_fine ,

No, it was just commentators. They saw “unknown trader” and filled in their own biases.

i_ben_fine ,

They want the writeup, because the claims are too vague to falsify.

i_ben_fine ,

I want more Ars Technica War Stories. They’re the reason I subscribed to the channel.

i_ben_fine ,

I also use inoreader. I’m always keeping my eye open for a better reader, though.

i_ben_fine ,

Thank you for introducing me to this joy.

i_ben_fine ,

That’s a very good point. Moral relativism can be true and oppressors can still be bad.
