Internet trolls are actually more organized than those clowns.

Full self driving will be generally available next year, every year for the better part of a decade. Oh, and humans will be on Mars by the end of 2025. And don't forget Starship's incredible 300, 150, 50 ton payload.

I only wanted to point out the hypocrisy, but you make a good point:

Where capital punishment exists, people who commit crimes are more likely to escalate to more heinous acts in order to evade capture

Trump, in an executive order: "The Government's most solemn responsibility is to protect its citizens from abhorrent acts, and my Administration will not tolerate efforts to stymie and eviscerate the laws that authorize capital punishment against those who commit horrible acts of violence against American citizens."

Abhorrent acts like denying over 1/4 of healthcare coverage claims? Abhorrent acts like demanding surgeons scrub out and immediately call back the insurer to justify the surgery that they were in the middle of performing?

No, of course not.

California! /s but not really

That's a big assumption.

It might, it might not. We do know that it pisses the ones in the House off whenever people ask them to oppose anything, though.

Nothing will be done.

That's not true. They'll whine, ask for civilian donations, and pass legislation that benefits their corporate donors.

EGGWHITE Act
Encourage General Goods Without Health-Impacting Temporary Elements

As our promise to Make America Healthy Again™, we are phasing out the approval and sale of general food goods that negatively affect the American public. Starting May 2nd, dirty foods like brown rice and brown eggs can not be sold as-is and must either be destroyed or disinfected before sale.

What's so wrong about JAQing off in public, at any and every conceivable opportunity? /s

It's Kaboom. It really only takes two words and a symbol to figure that out: "Kaboom", an "@", and the "Reddthat" instance.

Hopefully we get something out of this fucking bullshit

At the current trajectory, it be at best a renewed appreciation for how good things used to be.

"Rules for thee, not for me."

Billionaires don't become billionaires by being good people, but they would respond to that idea with some horse crap about the American Dream™

Yeah, I never said .world is any good either. Both of them have Ye Old' Power Tripping Bastards worthy moderation.

My instance had a genuinely stupid policy where trolls were not to be banned but instead countered with facts. To prevent echo chambers, or some stupid shit like that. They also blocked the db0 piracy community from being viewed.

Sometimes, they'll start a podcast or a YouTube channel. Those ones are the worst.

Gamers complain about cancel culture, but they're the first to demand changes and threaten to boycott a game for daring to include any "woke" (diverse character) content.

It's absurdly ironic and hypocritical.

I have nothing against your instance's moderators or users, but I'm not quite sure the admins of your instance follow the same guidelines.

I would really recommend newcomers pick a home instance like db0 over .ml or .world, and be aware of the instance rules when posting on communities in either. For .ml, avoid criticizing the CCP, and for .world, avoid expressing any desires that can be even remotely seen as "violence".

What even is a government? Rogan and Tate say they made a 19th amendment, and i dont see how that benefits me to have so much useless regulation. -Ducking Idiot.

Edit: /s needed, apparently

You might want to rephrase that last sentence. Lemmy.world rules don't like green plumbers.
