Let there be lots of fucking!

What’s wrong with porn?

And this is why victims do not get be the arbiters of justice, nor should they.

This is why we have judges and juries. But enforcing a death penalty generally causes more trauma than it serves justice.

This is why over 70% of the world’s countries have abolished or de facto abolished capital punishment. It doesn’t work, it doesn’t serve justice, and it only continues the cycle of violence.

Just to give you an idea of how backwards the United States is on this issue:

Since 1990, at least 11 countries have executed offenders who were minors (under the age of 18 or 21) at the time the crime was committed, which is a breach of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, ratified by all countries but the United States. These are: China, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Iran, Nigeria, Pakistan, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, South Sudan, Sudan, the United States, and Yemen.[11][12][13] In the United States, this ended in 2005 with the Supreme Court case Roper v. Simmons, in Nigeria in 2015 by a law,[14] and in Saudi Arabia in 2020 by royal decree.

Edit: I can’t claim to understand how you feel about your experience and what happened to you, which is why I didn’t address it. I hope that you and your loved ones have access to therapy and the ability to live your lives in peace.

This is why victims are not on the juries of their perpetrators. If we allow feelings and emotions to get in the way of a fair unbiased justice system, it’s not the way we should do things.

Sounds like he is doubling down on blaming the people instead of the politicians who accept bribe money from the corporations.

I disagree. Fairly certain it got politicians attention. When your own soldiers are standing outside of your house setting themselves on fire it’s probably best to pay attention to the message.

Nah dude, he’s just a nihilist

Sometimes it is difficult to see a whole thread on Lemmy for me. If I have taken anything out of context that stinks but happy Saturday

My anus has dingleberries. Uranus has 28 moons.

We are not the same.

You can’t regulate your own children, so you think it makes sense to try and regulate all children.

Whatever dude. Stop trying to pass laws “for the children”. It’s b.s

Look here, pal!

I spent the first ten years of my childhood in Alabama living in a freezer! Do you have any idea what that’s like?

No hugs, no toys. A fucking freezer!

For ten years of my childhood!

Do you have any idea how easy it is to bypass a law like this?

Anytime the government says they are doing something to help the children, it is most likely an extreme infringement on the rights of non children.

Does this mean any left leaning defendant who has been prosecuted under this judge deserves a retrial?

It’s upsetting to see him literally fighting for trump to win the election.

Actually, Im fairly certain it’s the other way around. The neoliberals have been making these same arguments for over 40 years. “Vote for this guy because the other guy is worse”.

You are the one who keeps doing the exact same thing expecting different results.

I know that probably hurts your feelings. But your feelings are also valid.

Biden is going to lose this election so hard it isn’t even funny.

I don’t understand why so many people buy new cars. Wasting a year’s worth of income. It doesn’t make sense. I get that people need a reliable vehicle to get to work but even if you just spend a half a year’s income it would make a lot more sense.

The need to fit in and be seen as upwardly mobile and have new things to impress others is so strong in us.

Biden’s team somehow thinks that enacting republican policies are going to win him more democrat voters?

Either that or Biden has been a republican this whole time and is enacting policy he openly supports.

Leaning towards the second option, but man. Biden is going to lose the fuck out of this election.

I don’t think there’s much he could do at this point to win my vote. He’s already doubled down on every issue I care about.

And I’m definitely not alone. Fuck neoliberals.

And fyi. I don’t fucking care if the other guy is worse. Please stop saying that shit over and over again.

This is a travesty. These people are engaging in blatant and obvious child trafficking

Fairly certain a child gets benefits and if an egg is a child…. This ruling would change any previous legislation I assume

As someone who has literally never bought any software at all, ever… I just get the stuff I need whether it is free or not. I don’t care if it is freeware or not actually

The one we live in, where software is being sold to consumers with terms of service that say customers don’t own the software they bought.
