Seasoned_Greetings,

Well if the court didn't engage in clearly partisan politics, maybe the liberal justices wouldn't have anything to criticize.

Does he realize how bad it looks when he voices that his problem is criticism and not like, I don't know, taking money from political interests? Or refusing to recuse in cases where there's a relative directly involved?

TheButtonJustSpins,

Left-leaning justices have long argued that the criminal justice system should primarily try to determine whether a criminal defendant has actually committed a crime — and that there should be adequate safeguards to ensure that someone who is wrongfully convicted can challenge that conviction.

Meanwhile, justices on the Court’s rightward fringe have long argued that the primary purpose of the criminal justice system is to reach final judgments concerning an individual’s guilt. Under this view, this need for finality can even overcome a claim that a prisoner is innocent.

I really can't emphasize this enough: fuck the right.

Its called theocracy, religious fascism isn't exactly a thing.

People keep yelling "fascism" without understanding what it actually is.

EDIT: I'm not making any qualitative statements on fascism. I don't like it, myself. I'm simply saying that it's a word with a specific meaning, and it's thrown around to derogate the political right a bit too freely.

Wigglehard,

Thank you, finally some reason

Nah, Reddit is fine. Traffic is back to normal levels.

Hillock,

I don't think it went too far. Not exposing people accidentally to NSFW content takes priority over giving people a better experience consuming NSFW content. If you want to consume NSFW content head over to an instance that focuses on NSFW content. For example, lemmynsfw.com will fulfill all your NSFW needs.

That's the advantage of the fediverse, you can have different instances focusing on different types of content. And having the main sites of kbin.social or lemmy.world focus on Non-NSFW content will make the entire fediverse easier to advertise to the public.

Nope. Content is mirrored and hosted locally, so it's the admin's choice and responsibility.

Moreover, listening to choruses of "individual choice" are how you end up providing a server for people who feel no responsibility to their neighbours and communities. Structural issues require more than "Fuck you, I can do what I want."

You can choose to use a different instsnce if you don't like what the admin's doing. Or you can start your own. That's how you can do what you want.

Edit: I do love the downvotes from the "I can do what to want" crowd, knowing that they're also the "my property, my rules" crowd. Except when they're the ones using someone else's shit, of course.

It's not a coherent ideology.

@Azzu I was so confused about kbin using "magazines"...

danc4498,

If we're taking a vote, I think "Magazine" is a dumb name. I saw that and had no idea what it was supposed to be.

Honestly, this specific post is the first I am realizing that "Magazine" is the equivalent of a subreddit.

Edit: if I'm being honest, I thought Community was a dumb name too.

I've found myself saying magazine/group/community to cover my bases, so having a common name might be nice.
