While Pornhub pulling out of Florida (US) may not be the end of the !world@lemmy.world, the underlying trend of pornography criminalisation for "modesty" can easily translated into sexual control and control of sex.

As we all know by now, sexual control is gendered against women and queers, racialised, et al.

Control of sex on the other hand is well substrated in Anti-Choice or bodily autonomy-denying discourse as well as population control for classist, racist etc. motives.

Since when is Florida scared of sex? Since it hates minorities. (IMO)

I feel like this knowledge is gonna spread for the wrong reasons.

Yeah, I forgot that a large part of the energy is in inertia and not the pulling of the engine.

You're right, but "every second" was meant more as a display of the energy in the train, like a large explosion "every second". Is that very wrong?

A train of 8000 tons at a velocity of 30 km/h roughly has the kinetic energy of 66.39 kg TNT.

Supposedly 100 kg TNT

Atompunk?

Was soll das?

Too many Civ VI Bugfixes /s

My wife didn't like the color of the wall, so she sent me to get this color instead

Why is their wife unhappy with the color?

Why did she send her partner to get a different color?

Why did their wife send someone who cannot tell the difference? Why is that a laughing track?

This does not seem like it is about shade at all. It seems to be more about years of failed communication.

Or this is all fabricated and just a person making stuff up for laughing about shades of white they found in a paint shop.

I'm not sure landlocked Nepal swims that well

Didn't Nero have this on-the-fly (as if flies could burn anything) copying or am I confusing DVD and audio here?

Das Leben der Anderen? lol

Yeah, that's why we even care that the US has a duopoly.

This particular thread is largely about "that's what they consider unbiased news for some reason"

No, of course not. Never was, nowhere is.

The wish for "unbiased news" grew from the aftermath of WWI, but didn't stick with the duopoly in the US.

taboo to call

We’re all meant to pretend

People get mad if you say this, but it’s true.

If my saying this makes you feel uncomfortable, that discomfort is called cognitive dissonance. It’s what being wrong feels like.

But real life doesn’t move in accordance with your preferences.

[communicative action] is the worst sin a person can possibly commit.

Information density and transmission is polluted by the fears of not being convincing enough and not sounding radical enough.

(IMO this can result from cynicism and sociopolitical isolation.)

[..] major world events do not occur independently of the actions of the major world powers who have a vested interest in their outcomes.

Sure, but this does not explain why Assad, North Korea or Putin are good enough for an opposition or even the seed of that.

Claim

There are no beacons of freedom in Syria.

Amalgamating Al-Qaeda, IDF, TSK into a coherent side is wild. HTS and SNA may have occupied populated Syria, but given the IDF's air strikes and the continued pressure of TSK directly and through SNA indirectly against SDF, this war seems far from over.

The fall of Assad does not endorse HTS. It simply is.

The US abolished the claim of nonpartisan, unbiased media at least half a century ago.

Well, people like Assad are not exactly a good rallying cry for an opposition.
