World News@lemmy.world•UK Home Office revokes visa of Palestinian student after protest speech
482·2 years agoBut in a response to her visa application, the Home Office told Ashkar that it had been denied on the grounds that granting it would “harm the public interest”, without giving any further reasons or explanation.

266·2 years agoI hope it makes some men (looking at the commenters on r/tinder who speak in terms of a marketplace) understand that they aren’t necessarily competing with other men, they’re also competing with the null hypothesis: Would she rather be alone (or with a bear).

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•[Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism?
335·2 years agoIt’s part of a shifting norm and shifting norms are always controversial. Especially norms that involve opening up bodily autonomy, dignity, or respect to previously excluded groups.

World News@lemmy.world•Cuba sentences 22-year-old mother to 15 years in prison for publishing videos of protests
25·2 years agoA third take: Authoritarian groups have been historically successful in wiping out (usually by force) less authoritarian groups and their methods of organizing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•[Serious] Any high-quality right-wing media, books, explainers?
9·2 years agoThis is not a right wing resource, but if you’re interested in learning about the arguments and historical evolution of ideas that underpin economic liberalism/neoliberalism, I highly recommend Geoff Mann’s Disassembly required : a field guide to actually existing capitalism. It’s concise, relatively short, and treats the ‘other’ side like rational actors (which is important for understanding, I think).
Ofc this would only help understand people who are quite well informed.
I guess I’m worried primarily about internal enemies too, but I don’t think we’d agree on which entities are the problem for some reason…

World News@lemmy.world•Blinken urges Hamas to accept ‘extraordinarily generous’ ceasefire deal
31·2 years agoIf I was in politics or was looking to get into politics in the future, I would be trying to get arrested publicly for this. Look at the people who got arrested during the civil rights movement.

Technology@lemmy.world•Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Possible snipers seen at OSU. Administration says they're not snipers but should be treated like they are.
46·2 years agoLove how the narrative went from “nah those can’t be snipers definitely spotters” to “snipers are commonplace at big events!” once it was confirmed. Also the fact that only msn and snopes have published anything about this (or is that just a search indexing problem?).

World News@lemmy.world•Gaza mass grave: Almost 400 bodies have been found, says Palestinian Civil Defense | CNN
17·2 years agoThe nazi party used a lot of euphemism surrounding their genocide plan and a lot of german citizens claimed afterwards they didn’t know the extent of it (davon haben wir nichts gewusst), but the antisemitism was immediately visible obviously what with the kidnapping. The camps—a bit less so, but a lot of historians feel they were more of an open secret than a secret. It was definitely less globally visible than what’s happening in Palestine though and the international community was justifiably outraged when they saw the extent and brutality of the camps.

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•‘They Are Just Pissed Off’: Scott Galloway Warns Young People Are ‘Opting Out of America’ As Older Generations Failed Them
45·2 years agoI don’t think it’s envy for what the older generations have (“I wish I had that too”) so much as disgust at what they were/are willing to do to make and keep it (at politicians who don’t even intend well, at lobbying, at war mongering, at continued climate degradation, at racism, at the brutality of capitalism and the impact of it’s growth mandate, that some individuals have power way beyond their ability to take responsibility for their harm, etc).
I think the younger generations would be quite willing to adapt to things like high density housing, trimming back consumption, reducing meat intake, etc. in the name of balance with each other and the climate, but that would cause deflation and we can’t have that.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Biden watching college students (a core democratic constituency) protesting against genocide
69·2 years agoActive support of something totally morally unacceptable seems more morally culpable than refusing to participate. I don’t think most people are consequentialists—the how matters.
