Fair enough, good quote (btw I'm not from US so my knoledge here is limited). Although I'm not sure what portion I agree/disagree with it, I have to think about it much more.
But I mean, even MLK understood that there's a limit, right? Like he didn't take AK47 and started to murder all the racists he saw but have chosen rather strong but non violent approach and he thought about what he was saying and what "works". And that's all I'm saying, I've never said that you cannot take a strong stance. But if you turn it to 11 and just RAGE!!! then be prepared that you might not achieve anything or even make the situation worse
I fully agree. This applies not only to feminism but in general - if you want to convince people about something, you need to plan your approach, what to say, know what works on people etc. You cannot just rage like crazy because there's a high chance you just create a counter reaction.
F.e. I'd say we can all agree that gay rights are the right thing. But if you come to some conservative village, start shouting at everyone, being super aggresive and rage like a maniac, I'd bet that the only thing you achieve is that you'll be labeled as "that crazy person"
I'm really surprised of the responses to this comment, I find this to be a common sense
I'd like to be calm but since I live in a country neighbouring Ukraine ... yeah, I'm scared
Wait, is "Days of our lives" an actuall TV show? I thought it was a made up thing for Friends!
Good, I agree. And I still argue that the word 'privilege' isn't correct here. We want to call this 'double standard', 'unfairness', 'disadvantage', 'advantage', ... that's up to a debate. But I rest my case that this isn't a 'privilege'
To quote source of all truth - Google first page:
privilege
/ˈprɪv(ɪ)lɪdʒ/
a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.
"education is a right, not a privilege"
How is that a 'privilege'? I don't know like you but for me the 'privilege' is something above normal, above standard, above majority. A king has a privilege of not paying taxes, everyone must pay them but not him, he has this privilege. A diplomat has a privileges that are above law, like they cannot get fine for speeding. We could say a kid whos parents are billionaires has a (hypothetical) privilige in life where they can get everything they want and family budget isn't affected. That is not normal and only few chosen ones have those privileges.
So back to my question - not being judged by the way you look is not something above normal. That is the standard, that should be a norm. I don't know how we want to call the situation in the post but that's not a privilege. At all. Rant over.
Heh, is that Marian Labuda in the picture from movie 'Vesničko má středisková'?
I never thought I'd witness the release of 3.0 in my lifetime
Oh no, no, not at all. This comic is perfectly fine and non problematic if you replace 'men' with any huge group of people like 'women', 'gay', 'asians', 'americans' or 'blacks'. Also if you disagree with me then you just proove my point as is shown in the last panel. Case closed!
Oh sleep talking nonsense is the best! When I was in college my roommate wrote down what I said whe I was sleeping, it could be roughly translated like this:
"We have a crooked goat in our head that we can grab by the wall and then we can go fuck ourselves because we've had enough of it and that's it"
I couldn't make this shit up even if I tried ...
Where did you play with your friends? Where did you hang out? How did your day look like? I grew up in a small town in a small country and that's something that I always found mysterious and fascinating.
When I grew up we played soccer, hide and seek, hanging out next to a river. I was always wondering how a childhood in places like Manhattan looks like
So true, put this on a tea cup!
Because it isn't an AI actually, it's just LLM. It's trained to create pictures that look similar to pictures of humans and it does pretty good job at it. The number of fingers or structure of hand doesn't matter, it's close enough. If it'd be intelligent, it'd know that humans have 5 fingers. But it isn't
Oh no! Don't tell our russia-friendly government! (Slovakia)
I love Lemmy and I try to spread the info about it but almost always I face one issue - people being confused. For me (and probably you) it's hard to understand what's confusing about the way Lemmy works, I mean email works on the same principle and everyone's ok with it. It basically boils down to like 3 questions:
- Why do I need to choose a server?
- What is the server / instance? / Is server a subreddit?
- Is Lemmy the same thing like Reddit?
So my idea: Could we put it as a FAQ on the join-lemmy.org? Feel free to submit best answers to these questions (I try to submit mine later when I have some time). Or come up with other frequent questions you heard

For the age ranges, we make the assumption that all women lived to exactly 73 years old, which is the life expectancy for females at birth in 1960.

Za mňa asi Zaľúbil sa chlapec z albumu Hodina Pravdy. Myslel som že Sestrička z kramárov ale zistil som že to je dosť staré

Boost fails to open .mp4 for me. When I browse "All" there usually is some mp4 content, especially from ... well ... nsfw instances. Theese almost always fail and I see just black screen. Firefox on mobile opens it without a problem and so does Sync For Lemmy. Do you have this issue or is it just me? F.e. can you open this link?

I see this:
I don't know if this is caused by instance or by Boost but as I said, Sync doesn't have this problem. And I like Boost more
