In other words, they’re only interested in punishing the ones that get caught, and they’ll only process it well after it’s happened so they can just deliver a slap on the wrist.

By definition, you can only punish the ones that get caught.

I don’t.

I’m a bit clumsy (ADHD) and having a cable attached to my body attached to a €1000 device is asking for trouble. I hate the cable getting tangled up, caught on things etc.

It’s weird that he thinks of it as “blackmail” though, and a thing that’s happening to “him”.

Blackmail is when someone has damning evidence against you and they threaten to release it unless you do what they want.

We saw the damning evidence. It’s been released. This is the reaction.

If you can’t think of any geopolitical issues more important than some ancient statues then I can’t take you seriously as an adult.

So this is your first time looking into this topic, and yet you feel confident to give out a strong opinion and feel smug about it?

Guess what you didn’t do and modicum or research into? All the other more important topics.

Welp, looks like Mitsokakis squandered an opportunity for serious discussion for some domestic points-scoring.

Just what the worlds needs now.

Actually, I’m going to add something to my last reply.

“not wanting to be drowning in ads” is in no way shape or form a political decision.

If you mean “because adverts are capitalism” then you’re part of the deeply naive problem.

It’s perfectly plausible - because it literally has happened - for people to construct a platform under our system (which is also hybrid anywat) that allows for social media to exist without adverts.

You’re literally the kind of person when I mean when I talk about trying too shoe-horn politics into things when it doesn’t belong.

I see you can’t understand the difference between zealotry and normal discussion.

“I don’t want ro drowning in ads” doesn’t have to mean “but trump is Hitler evil Jews did this blah blah everyone who isn’t of my opinion is a murderer”

That’s the main thing I hate about Lemmyverse is that the zealots and puritans came over too.

They always think you mean someone else when you say “please stop constantly trying to shoehorn your politics into everything”

Critical thinking isn’t my strong point?

Nighttime. Winter.

Even if solar power was free it still wouldn’t fucking work.

It will never work during those times.

So nuclear - which is clean and sustainable - can phase out the fossil fuels that have to be burned during the nighttime and winter.

Or did you think that the cost of solar panels dropping correlated with a perfect drop in energy costs for everyone?

“critical thinking skills” twat.

No it doesn’t.

The price of solar can’t continue on this trend forever. There’s a point of diminishing returns.

Not all Art has the same value.

You think someone who delicates their life to musical excellence should get the same as someone who sticks seashells onto things?

What t about if they only produce one seashell covered mug per week? Per month?

If only there was some mechanism to objectively measure the value of what we produce.

I think yes. Light is a wavelength, so whatever colours we are seeing are in ratio to one another. There might be some perpetual variation due to the quality of our eyes - but red orange and yellow are next to each other on the spectrum.

Nobody will see that any differently.

I love how vigilante justice has slipped in through the back door again.

“Oh but you don’t think we’re should hit nazis?”

No. I don’t think you should decide who is a nazi,.

This is all utter nonsense though.

The reality is for some reason people they are considered “white” and some people are considered “black”.

It’s because of the colour of their skin if you skin didn’t notice.

Why are people like you just falling over yourselves to invent more facile nonsense?

When did “white” come into it?

Maybe excluding people based on gender in order to fulfil some ideological fantasies about how the world should be?

This meme highlights the real difference between the gay rights movement of the past, and the modern “lgbqt alphabet” movement of now.

Gay people just wanted to be given the same rights as everyone else, and told is that they didn’t have much choice in the matter.

With the current movement, they want everyone to change their behaviour and the way they think about things.

You’ll often see criticisms of the modern gender movement labelled as “homophobia” but they aren’t.

They are two different movements and should separated.

It will be like that, plus political posts.

Because people are addicted to spreading their political opinions like evangelists of old.

And they never think you mean them when you ask them to stop, becuse then other team is evil, and inserting their political opinions in to everything is their personality now. It’s tut only way they can get them likes.

Social media changed society and sadly, I don’t think escaping to the Fediverse can out run the political borest.
