  • Beijing Court Hands AI Copyright Violators up to 18 Months in Prison

  • No, it wouldn't. Copyright violations isn't theft. Period.

  • Wtf? I said both sides should be investigated. Iran and Israel. I didnt say anything about one sided investigation.

  • Dear slim

  • They absolutely should open the investigation tho. All war criminals, no matter if Israeli or Iranian belong in prisons, not governments.

  • It's always too crowded already

  • I think that the judge and jury who sentenced someone to death should be forced to watch too to see the execution (read: state sanctioned murder) they authorized

  • Sentences are meant to signal for how long can the Government deprive an individual of their liberty, it under no circumstances allows the Government to torture a prisoner with psychoactive drugs. It's specifies actual, real time, not how the prisoner perciceves it. Under the same logic, the prisoner could use the idiomatic expressions 'it's been a lifetime' to claim his life sentence is served.

  • I'm struggling to find an interpretation under which artificially extending the psychologically feelable length of the punishment of a prisoner is not unusual. Fortunately, it's not likely to come into effect. Still, the cruelty is astounding

  • If this is not a PRIME example of what the 8th amendment is trying to prevent, I don't know what is.

  • I looked it up. I struggle to live not as well as a Norwegian prisoner.

  • I mean, I doubt all prisoners are locked in these prisons. I think these prisons like Halden are rewards to which the best behaving prispners get transported to. Still, the criminal justice system in these countries is awesome.

  • But it highlights a societal problem. How supply and demand is put above everything. How people who work hard and could improve society end up in a place like that because society thinks supporting them and their fields that don't bring immediate profit is cOmMuNiSm somehow (if u think that, well you're the prime example of why we need to encourage college education in humanities specifically)

  • Finland to criminalise Holocaust denial

    Jump

  • That decision was made in the 60's, not today. I was trying to write analysis as neutral as possible, not to say which side is morally correct. And while the political situation in the US is dire and the incumbent admin absolutely blatantly violated, among others, freedom of speech (Perkins Coie LLC V DOJ, a case under which hundred of amici signed in support of the Plaintiff) and it is true that Brandenburg, actual KKK leader, was a piece of shit on another level, the decision still stands.

  • Finland to criminalise Holocaust denial

    Jump

  • Yeah, that's true. Generally, I think the Constitution needs a lot of revision as it fails to properly protect the civil rights of its citizens so a bunch of corrupt assholes (looking at you Clarence Thomas) cannot just disappear them in a whim.

    Also the decision was made in the 60s by the liberal Warren court (the one that, among others, ended institutionalized segregation in the public sphere (Brown V BoE))

  • Nobody is forcing you to excerise religion. It is your right to dunk on it, to hate it, but you cannot prohibit its exercise. Yes, cultists shoving it down their children's throats is a problem, but that can be solved with overturning Yoder and focusing in prevention in the education system.

  • Finland to criminalise Holocaust denial

    Jump

  • I'msorry, but legally speaking that is not the case. In the US, which specifies freedom speech 'as is' (cited)

    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

    the Supreme court decided that hate speech is, in most cases protected (see Imminent Lawless Action test, Brandenburg V Ohio)

    Of course, all nations aren't the US and for instance my country, Czech rep, allows limiting free speech, but it outlines this specific reasoning in its Bill of Rights, specifically §17(4) of 2/1993 Coll. Said Article says that 'For the reason of protecting democracy, the law can limit free speech..' and I assume the Finnish Constitution has a similar clause.

    But the plain expression 'freedom of speech' does protect hate speech. That being said, even the afformentioned US limits free speech as it allows individuals to sue for libel and defamation and allows the state to prosecute someone for meaningful threats.
