Der war dann ja auch noch in Begleitung seiner 41 jährigen Tochter. Ich dachte mir den ganzen Artikel lang was die eigentlich dazu gesagt hat oder warum sie ihn nicht gestoppt hat. Stellt sich raus: sie wurde am Ende, nachdem die Polizei das Auto gestoppt hat, ins Krankenhaus gebracht weil sie einen “stark desorientierten Eindruck” gemacht hat (unter Drogen?)
Additional context: every time he points to the side hes talking directly to the politicians of the AFD, a far right, russia aligned party which heavily profited off of russian disinformation campaigns in the last election cycle
Who wants to bet how long they last before they get paused again?
Don’t do this too often though! Prolonged dilation (>2 hours) can damage your sphincter and give you incontinence in the long run. Probably not a problem if done rarely, but if it happens regularly it can become a problem
Honest question: why can’t both communities just exist separately? Isn’t this the magic of the Fediverse?
Your biggest point is that the communities are identical in content and I disagree. Just looking at the top posts of the week, the feddit.uk version has a bunch of memes, while feddid.org seems more news focused. The Fediverse allows us to moderate these communities differently and to have different styles of communities, perfectly shown with this example. They are not identical.
We shouldn’t build up just one community all the time. That just runs into the same problem why people disliked reddit: centralized moderation. It’s not a problem now, but if it ever will be, why can’t there be alternatives. Let’s not try to become the next reddit, but become something better.
Also some people left reddit because it all became to big, they want small groups that actually feel like a community. If people prefer a smaller lemmy community, let them have it. They voted against merging, so let them have it. !buyeuropean@feddit.uk is already linked in their sidebar. Everybody that wants to can switch the community or subscribe to both (which is a possibility!!).
I think you’re in the wrong here, at least on trying to grow the uk community over the org one.
Just so you know, “Bild” is a german right wing magazine. Imagine fox news as a newspaper. They are well known to report false information to smear left wing initiatives and further hurt victims if they are left wing. Since the victims of police brutality here are apparently pro-palastine, Bild cannot be trusted to report accurately
It also doesn’t specify how often/quick you can do it, so you could still move at breakneck speeds, 7 inches at a time
Let’s just make a new text standard, call it “tinychar” or something. You don’t need any personal notes when it’s a known concept
We should all make up our personal character systems so we won’t have to worry about this situation /s
I agree, but it’s also not surprising. I think somebody else posted the article about kenyan Facebook moderators in this comment section somewhere if you want to know more
Interesting fact: many bigger Lemmy instances are already using AI systems to filter out dangerous content in pictures before they even get uploaded.
Context: Last year there was a big spam attack of CSAM and gore on multiple instances. Some had to shut down temporarily because they couldn’t keep up with moderation. I don’t remember the name of the tool, but some people made a program that uses AI to try and recognize these types of images and filter them out. This heavily reduced the amount of moderation needed during these attacks.
Early AI moderation systems are actually something more platforms should use. Human moderators, even paid ones, shouldn’t need to go though large amounts of violent content every day. Moderators at Facebook have been arguing these points for a while now, many of which have gotten mental issues though their work and don’t get any medical support. So no matter what you think of AI and if it’s moral, this is actually one of the few good applications in my opinion
Also, 1024 characters assumes you are just using ASCII, which has a bunch of control codes and characters of other languages you won’t use. If you trim these and remove uppercase letters you could probably make your own custom letter set that fits 2 characters in a byte, doubling your information to make it 2048 chars
First of all, gender expression and being trans is a vast field. While there are a bunch of labels one can use and that fit for many, this doesn’t cover everybody and their experiences.
Second, there are many forms of dysphoria, not all have to do with being uncomfortable in your body.
With understanding this and only having your description from this post, there are signs of both of this (at least some I interpreted that way while reading). As far as my understanding of the demi label goes, one only feels like that gender in certain situations or at certain times. If that is “on the internet” for you, then it isn’t far fetched. While you feel comfortable as a woman, you also said you’d desire male genitalia, which even without any pain from it is still dysphoria. If you want to be perceived as male sometimes or just online, that’s a form of dysphoria too.
I’d recommend to you to do some soul-searching and introspection to find an answer for yourself. It doesn’t sound like you’re trans-masc, but maybe demiboy, genderfluid or non-binary would fit you? Nobody can answer that for you though and it is fine for you to be something that doesn’t have a label.
Now I would say it’s kind of inappropriate to call yourself trans-masc online if you don’t consider yourself that. It might be seen as appropriating an identity or pain you don’t actually have. Many trans people suffer from their dysphoria and taking that label just for the optics is maybe not that nice (similar to how people pretending to be another race isn’t a good thing). Connecting this to my previous point: many trans people do start out pretending to be another gender online to experiment. If it feels comfortable to you, maybe you should think about that a bit
Yes, but these are probably also an extend/criminal law implementation of this constitutional law. Also you would still break the law, even if you couldn’t get punished for it. Something you don’t want to host on german servers.
To contextualize my original comment a bit more and explain how these things work over here: you can already get sued for just insulting somebody. I remember a case a few years ago where somebody called a right wing politician a “Hurensohn” (son of a whore) and got his house raided by police. Getting sued (especially by politicians) for insults isn’t unlikely in germany. The platform hosting that content can also get in trouble for it. OP apparently talked about a politician, who could try and sue in Germany. Since OP is probably not from there, the server owners will get in trouble instead. All that to say: this form of moderation is legally necessary in Germany. You can dislike this and I agree with you, but it’s not something that’s going to change. It doesn’t mean that the mods are supporting fascism, as so many are seemingly claiming. Feddit.org is a rather left instance (in Germany we’d say “linksgrün versifft”) and they are definitely not trying to shield nazis, they just try to follow the local law to prevent getting sued
Try to get to know her. Ask follow up questions to show you’re actually listening. Tell her you are interested in another date afterwards. Stuff like that, even if it sounds generic
I did. That’s the first article of the Grundgesetz (Basic Law) of Germany
Not that directly, but saying they have “zero worth” might be against GG Article 1
Human dignity is inviolable
Pretty sure dehumanizing can be prosecuted under this, even if its rather tame. Also there have been some laws over the last few years that criminalize violent speech on the internet and that give people the ability to report comments directly to agencies. These might make it quite dangerous for the instance to keep up these comments.
I assure you, German leftist often say way more intense stuff on a daily basis, but not on publicly hosted servers
I feel like flirting isn’t really something people do while dating nowadays. I (and probably some other women) find it more annoying if you wanna get to know the other person. Most flirting I like is after you’re already in a relationship, because you can be sure that the other person is safe and not a creep. Of course you still need to find a way to show interest
feddit.org is a German hosted instance that has to abide by the German law. By that law, your comment falls into a grey-zone of legality. As much as I agree with you, they were right in removing your comment, as they are legally obligated to. They could get into trouble if they don’t.
To quote the feddit.org sidebar:
Content that is illegal in Germany, Austria or Switzerland will be deleted and can lead to an immediate ban of the account.
With how many trans women name themselves after gemstones, more trans men should name themselves after metals
