I’ve cut those with knives. Works great.

What would a fascist acting in good faith look like?

I have to say I’m shocked, even. This has been on my wishlist forever and I just assumed it would be abandoned at some point. Gotta go check it now.

I feel properly represented.

From my antifascist perspective, an Apartheid state killing children is what is truly absolutely unacceptable. If diverse sectors of that society are not OK with war, Apartheid and murdering civilians, it’s on them to mobilize to stop that, not on the rest of the world to refrain from criticism just because the human rights violations their state actually commits are similar to delusional bigoted tropes about their religion. Also, criticizing the actions of a State, even a religious one, is not hate speech.

I realized why your comment bothered me so much: I am kind of an antinatalist myself, so for me having children is always dooming them in some way, especially nowadays when our civilization is on the brink of collapsing, but I don’t judge these people to be more selfish than the usual. People with Li Fraumeni Syndrome have a 50% chance to pass down the mutation to their offspring, it’s no certainty, and the article is clearly showing current technology can detect cancer earlier so people can act upon it. You are calling these people, who have cancer or mostly certainly will, selfish, when you don’t have the faintest idea of what it means to live in their shoes. If it is selfish or not, that is something for their children to decide, not you. Passing shallow moral judgment on the reproductive decisions of disabled/sick people is very dehumanizing, not to say it’s one of the core elements of eugenics ideology. It’s not hard to see how your standing would enable a more extreme view arguing that people with Li Fraumeni Syndrome should be sterilized.

This. You might have to clear up some space before installing pacman-contrib though.

paccache -rk1 once in a while and you’re good, maybe even create a hook

Although not very realistic for most people in most countries. In my social reality, buying land and conditions to homestead depends on having a fat inheritance or having an exceptionally good salary.

You know what is fatal 100% of the time? Living at all.

Reproduction is not about logic anyway, it’s just a very common and fundamental feature of life. People who are disabled or fatally ill also have ordinary dreams, desires and human rights. Framing the issue as “these people are dooming their progeny” makes it seem like their own lives are worthless because they will die young, as if the value of human life rested on longevity. It’s quite frivolous to assume we can understand the desire to have kids of people with such diagnoses.

So, the primordial lifeblood of Lemmy consisted of historical memes. It was the thing that kept the feed going for many weeks in the beginning, and we still see echoes of that. It makes me glad because I feel I’m in a cozy, familiar corner of the Internet, replaying an entire lifetime of memes here. It’s as if meme culture was reincarnating in this very network of federated servers (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)

let me guess you’ve arrived recently here to Lemmy

angry upvote

It just wasn’t the right time. Now we’ve had enogih of them and he righfully decided it’s time to end school shootings.

I’m not sure I know what you mean by diagnosing, but it’s usually a good idea to use the same distro you’re having trouble with.
