  • TikTok is investigating why some users can't write 'Epstein' in messages

  • Stopping this whole sale of tic tok thing. Briefly.

    It seemed genuinely disconcerting to these people that youth were engaging in the political process by the officially sanctioned methods. After decades complaining about "apathetic youth".

    But that can't be used as a post hoc rationalization for the initiative it was trying to stop. Also, it didn't work did it. So the efficacy of this "manipulation" ability is rather questionable.

  • Franz Ferdinand is the most correct answer in this comment thread.

  • Is there a place I can find people considered "weird"?

    Jump

  • I understand your question and I do not think "all of lemmy" is a serious answer to it. lemmy is comprehensively dorky but not weird on the whole. memes about donald trump and linux don't quite have that quirked out charm.

    where is the SCA of lemmy? I'm not sure but maybe you'd find something to your liking on the Local tab of one of these instances: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ https://lemmy.sdf.org/ https://beehaw.org/. Make accounts, browse "Local" and block those big comms like meme, news, technology.

    If you don't find your niches there, check out the rest of the fediverse. Lemmy is just a small piece. You might have better luck with a larger pool of people like mastodon, or a narrower one, like misskey. In all cases, be the kind of weird you want to see in the world, and you will attract like-minded people. Mind community guidelines. In general, try anywhere artists congregate.

    The very best place to meet weird people is out in the world. Talk to people at the bus stop and eventually someone will talk back.

  • EU creating a digital alternative to VISA/Mastercard, Canada should too.

  • I keep my bank transactions to a bare minimum. They charge me to hold my money so they can invest it and make themselves interest, and they charge me to remove my money. Only rich people get those fees waived. And I am way less likely to go below my balance an incur other surprise fees. Credit card is the only way. Or cash, but that requires making large withdrawals once or twice a month and carrying it around.

    Must be noted that credit card purchases not actually free, just the cost is borne by the merchant and returned in an averaged-out, invisible way.

  • Trump watched as girl’s newborn was murdered & dumped in lake, Epstein document says

    Jump

  • I agree with your top comment. There is a lot of very verifiable information in there. drop site news has done some actual journalism based on these document dumps. This one is just too attractive to low effort social media content producers. Too salacious.

    I haven't been digging through these documents. Could be others which are related. This is the one that's being circulated in my bubble. It isn't clear if this person is claiming she was also present for the infanticide but at the very least she is is saying she gave birth then the baby was no more so (if the story is real) something bad must have happened because a private citizen cannot just remove a child from its parent's care.

    Witness Information

    First Name: Donald

    Additional Info: Again, just trying to find out the NYPD detective on the FBI sex trafficking task force that called me a couple of weeks ago and spoke to me about some of these issues.

  • The tax on non Muslims (jizyah) was in a way beneficial to creating a heterogenous environment. Anybody who tried to expel members of different faiths suffered an immediate loss of income and soon saw the err of their ways. And the more prosperous non-muslims are, the more tax they can pay, so it also gives a reason to take special care of them and help them to prosper.

  • I don't think it was really such a big deal back then beyond your kind of baseline drama and conflict humans always get up to. But not much special aminosity between these two groups.

  • Conservative religious groups, and Mennonites are part of that, already have a strong distrust of government.

    that's not true. many governments around the world are substantially controlled by people who are members of conservative religions. and lots of conservative religious organizations are well integrated into their relevant governments. to the point of theocracies, which don't tend towards being extremely progressive.

    If you hear about a place that the Catholic Church is controlling party of the government, you don't think "Oh I bet it's some wild Liberation Theology situation where the women are free and there are land reforms to redistribute the land equally". You know it'll be some regressive, repressive backwards ass shit show.

    there were Amish people (a related group) who were charged for not getting a covid vaccine passport

    Where? Where has a "vaccine passport" even been implemented?
