France is surprisingly nuclearized despite Total

Trump said "you have to kill their families"- this is actually moderate by comparison

Of course it corrects for the trend. It lowered birth rates because pregnancy is riskier since terminating is no longer an option unless you basically sit through a death panel to determine whether or not it's clear enough that your life is at risk to terminate. Even then, by the time you get to the point where it's clearly a risk to your life, it can produce sterilizing or permanently disabling consequences.

All for the privilege of bringing a human being into the world with no public assistance, who has exorbitant medical costs, childcare costs, education costs, and for whom being unable to provide for them has catastrophic social consequences.

Because SC is the only state without a revenge porn law.

That is not what the Chaturbate TOS says. She did not agree that the content would be public. Users are not allowed to download material off the site.

Information isn't a tangible thing, though. The act of "tipping off" is conveying the information. In your example, it's like taking a thing of value and telling someone where they can pick up a bag of weed that happens to be for the price they paid.

Yes

I disagree, I think the techniques are not the issue, but the political-economic will to actually do it. It doesn't matter if we discover a way to build a zero-footprint efficiently-dense accessible and affordable housing out of entirely reclaimed materials- zoning boards, HOAs, city officials, and all other sorts of shit-eating bureaucrats and busybodies are going to chain themselves to historic parking lots to prevent progress.

To that note, repurposing a parking garage into shelter makes it easy for them to evict the housed and turn it back into a parking garage as per its original design- even potentially arguing that its original design as parking makes it unsafe for human habitation (and they very well could be right- cars and car infrastructure can be very toxic).

Tearing down car infrastructure isn't just symbolically obliterating car infrastructure, it has very real impacts in making it hard for the pendulum to swing back to building housing for cars and not people.

That's not what the TOS says. See this comment: https://lemmy.world/comment/3364907

Please explain the difference between dissemination of information and "tipping off" someone about that information

It's nude images nonconsensually disseminated for the purpose of hurting someone, which is the definition of revenge porn under VA law

Unless they did it from South Carolina specifically, yes

Someone here did break the law: The GOP operative source and the Wapo and AP who are obstructing justice by hiding their identity

The real controversy is that somehow Wapo and AP decided to assist a GOP operative in violating Virginia's revenge porn laws

You can claim malicious dissemination of a nude, which is a crime in VA: https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title18.2/chapter8/section18.2-386.2/

Except archiving and disseminating in this way is a violation of Virginia law. https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title18.2/chapter8/section18.2-386.2/

You should probably report where you saw them- it's revenge porn.

You're missing the point - the entire notion that political ideologies can have some discrete vectorization in a linearizable space is a social construct. To the extent that it has validity at all, it's a projection of reality onto a space with inherent distortions. I'm not arguing that it's not useful but it's important to realize that the shared understanding it provides people with is a shared understanding of the idealized world of the model, not of the underlying reality.

It's a neat concept but what we should be doing is obliterating the spaces made for cars and building spaces made for people, not "reclaiming" car space to fit people in it.

I hear that QAnon talks a lot about GOP, Republicans, conservatism, border walls, etc. - but I don't see them censoring that
