Most Americans still have their hears shoved so far up their asses that they think all of Europe is a freedomless third world region where the governments silence all criticism and doctors still use leeches or something. Just completely delusional and in denial.
Of course most Americans haven't even left their own state, never mind gone to Europe to experience it themselves.
Absolutely. You don't have to be a pedo or criminal or whatever to want privacy. We all want at least some level of privacy, and many people have an actual need for it.
I'm American, and we've had multiple similar efforts to destroy encryption "to protect the children"
In reality (and this is what they want) it will make it exponentially more dangerous for women needing abortions and LGBT people in dangerous situations. Journalists and confidential informants lose huge levels of the anonymity required to even investigate and report on things.
And don't even start on the floodgates of espionage government agencies will do.
All the republican judges going on tirades about any number of things like this but then not recusing themselves when they should have? Kavenuts and coney Island both made their positions on abortion very clear before they were put on the federal court. All the Clarence Thomas shit recently? Just two off the top of my head.
Georgia opened up a massive military-compound like police training facility in a forest. Protesters were camped out nearby.
Cops came and cleared out the camp and executed this man. They claim he shot at them and they returned fire. Forensics showed the victim had no gunshot residue on his hands. There is also apparently body camera footage but cops of course won't release it.
What would large-scale production look like? Consumer clothing? Could we get $20 silk shirts eventually? I think most the reason plastic fibers are so prevalent is because their cheap. People would definitely flock to nicer feeling clothing if it was the same price.
Sounds an awful lot like elon musk needs to be sent to the Russian front his fucking self. I hope ukraine charges him as a Russian spy and puts out a bounty on him.
If your doctor is chill, maybe see about doubling your dose so you get two months out of each bottle. And if they're not chill convince them you do need your meds upped and no one ever knows.
Meanwhile, I remember a few months ago... I believe it was Abbot, a constituent came and 'clapped him on the back' or some stupid harmless contact and they charged them with assault
Well, I'll talk about you then. Your Risa posts have been the highlight of my Lemmy experience, and I would say a lot of others as well, considering they're consistently some of the most active posts on lemmy.world. I came because of the reddit bullshit but stayed because of your memes.
Years from now when people ask "who were the first famous Lemmings?" MY answer will be "Stamets". You beautiful fucking bastard.
