Yeah. More like “Data is Interesting” (and bleak).
I think Slovakia has the lowest wealth inequality in europe (measured by GINI index) atleast it did in 2020. And 63% here say they want to tax the rich more.
Actually previously all I had done was import my blocks from this lemmy account. Hadn’t actually blocked someone the normal way.
Wait!
All the sudden now they do?? I wonder why?
Maybe it takes a couple hours to propagate?
Lets test this. I’ll block you on my piefed ui and see if I can see you on the voyager one logged into the piefed account.
(will unblock after obviously)
Who cares if they flee. The people shall then take control of their assets they leave behind!
The real estate, factories, etc they leave behind. Leave it to the people!
If your lucky. Often it’s just “I’m too overworked and busy to take you seriously”.
Or “I don’t believe you / think you are exaggerating”.
(Don’t take this map too seriously, I found it on another social media, not an academic paper).
yep its all ✨infrastructural inertia✨
because on paper thorium and fusion are both way ahead of uranium but the world has invested billions of dollars over 80 years into creating infrastructure for uranium.
Thorium is the Fusion of Fission.
Since the 60’s we’ve been told that thorium tech is just around the corner and it will replace uranium.
I’m a very principled man. After much research, I have decided to boycott every country on earth. (/s, wish this was possible)
sorry if it came off as hostile, not my intention.
but yeah i wasn’t asking for your opinion on life advice but just if this was a legitimate article.
That only works if you don’t get the very common entropy of illness or disability.
Like tell that life advice to many people who i know who are bedridden in their 20s from lifelong chronic illness.
He looks like an absolute badass
They really chose the worst photo to make him look bad.
Fateh's higher education bill included tuition-free public colleges and universities and tribal colleges for students from families whose income is less than $80,000 a year.[18] It also included an increase to Hunger Free Campus grants,[19]emergency assistance grants.[20]
Fateh was the chief Senate author of a bill to provide minimum wages and worker protections for drivers for rideshare companies such as Uberand Lyft.
I can’t tell if this is real or an onion site. Someone please tell me. I had no idea people could live to 114 and run!???
Not everything has to be about earning money.
Early youtube was beautiful precisely because it was normal people making videos as a hobby, not trying to earn money.
Actually, in neoliberalism, nearly exclusively that.
Voter Support for a Bill Has Near Zero Influence on Whether It Will Become Law
A new Yahoo/YouGov survey finds that about twice as many U.S. adults say they would vote for a candidate with Mamdani’s platform (50%) than say they would not (26%). Could it be a blueprint for Democrats elsewhere?

Most children - and some adults - remain in ignorance of many dark Thomas the Tank Engine moments. Despite the evolution of Thomas the Tank Engine to Thomas and Friends, the strange but revealing description of these animated steam engines is in the intro lyrics: "They're the really useful crew,...

Andrew Lee looks critically at the history of socialist politicians being elected to office. Originally posted to In Struggle. There’s a lot of understandable jubilation at Zohran Mamdani’s upset victory in the New York City Democratic primary for mayor. Nationally, liberal talking heads have been ...
> There’s a good reason for this, and it’s not (just) that their beliefs were insincere. The whole point of thinking about structures like capitalism, patriarchy, or white supremacy is recognizing structural power beyond the intentions or beliefs of any individual actor. The problem with capitalism isn’t that particular business owners are greedy, it’s that the system of private ownership requires exploitation and poverty. The problem with patriarchy isn’t that all men happen to be evil and all non-men happen to be saints. The problem is the system that secures wealth, power, and safety for one gender at the expense of others.
> We should think about state power in the same systematic way. It’s true—some politicians are especially terrible, just like some bosses are particularly noxious and some men are exceptionally patriarchal. But there are structural reasons for all men to take advantage of the privileges of patriarchy, whether we’re personally bigoted or not. Similarly, there are structural forces pressuring leftists in elected office to abandon their positions, entirely independent of their degree of personal ideological commitment
Statement from the autonomous Purépecha community of Cherán K’eri, Michoacán, following an armed attack against the community.

> Since the early morning of July 2, 2025, the community of Cherán K’eri has been under armed attack by unknown subjects seeking to enter the areas of Rancho del Pino and Cerrito del Aire. In response, our Community Round (autonomous security force established by our system of self-government) has resisted the aggression, activating the barricades to protect the population. At the moment, one person has been reported killed and another injured, both members of the Community Round. This fact fills us with indignation, sadness, and rage.
> This attack is not an isolated act. It is part of an escalation of violence that has intensified in the state of Michoacán, where organized crime fights over territory with total impunity, seriously affecting rural and Indigenous communities. In recent weeks, the aggressions have intensified in different regions of the state, including the Purépecha Plateau, where communities like Nahuatzen, Arantepacua, Capácuaro, and Santa Fe de la Laguna have also been the target of threats, armed incursions, and territorial dispossession.

SBS Insight Invisible Illness – Statement by 4 Studio Participants
Published: 23 June 2025
Invisible, Misrepresented, and Harmed: ME/CFS Voices Demand Accountability from SBS
A Joint Statement from Participants and Advocates in Response to the 20 May 2025 Episode of Insight
This statement has been prepared by a group of individuals who participated in the recent SBS Insight episode on invisible illness. We are united in our deep concern over how the episode was produced, edited, and presented and the serious harm it caused by misrepresenting Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) and its impact on the wider chronic illness community.
We believe this broadcast represents a clear breach of SBS’s own Code of Practice. The program:
- Failed to uphold editorial integrity by platforming a participant with undisclosed commercial interests (Section 3.1: Editorial Independence and Integrity);
- Presented medically inaccurate and misleading portrayals of ME/CFS (Section 3.2: Accuracy);
- Minimised the diversity of lived experiences in favour of a single recovery narrative (Section 3.3: Diversity of Views and Perspectives);
- Caused emotional harm to participants and viewers alike (Section 4.1: Harm and Offence);
As a public broadcaster, SBS has a duty to ensure ethical, accurate, and inclusive storytelling, especially when dealing with marginalised communities.
