Same. I’ve already added Threads.net to my “Blocked Domains” list on Mastodon. Hoping to be able to do that with Lemmy as well.

So you’re saying that people with disabilities should be excluded from society?
I sincerely doubt they would just release him to the general population.
Maybe you overlooked where I said that this guy should be in a facility where he can’t hurt anyone?
In this particular case, I believe the accused should be an inpatient at a mental health facility, especially because of the violent threats that were made. There is no way he should be allowed to walk free and continue doing this to people.
In the case of someone with Tourette’s yelling “Fire! Titties! Fire!” in a crowded theater and causing a stampede - they are still not responsible, nor would they be ruled responsible for any deaths that occur, and that’s 100% correct in my view.
I would say that he did demonstrate that he was insane, and therefore should be confined to a mental health institution.
This guy, given his behavior, should absolutely be in a facility where he can’t do any harm.
However - I have known a few people with Tourette’s over the years, and can absolutely say that mental state and abilities should play a factor in whether or not something that’s done would violate the law.
Yelling “fire” in a crowded theater may not be something someone with tourette’s can control. If that causes a stampede and people get trampled, that’s not their fault, in my opinion.
Yup, love all of these!
I would classify The Dollop along the lines of Behind the Bastards as well. Although it’s more comedy, it definitely gets political.
Hello new here, I’m dad!
Yeah, I’m perfectly fine with this decision. And if I want to see content from and interact on those instances, I can (and have already) create accounts on those instances. No harm no foul.
Tankies are a COINTELPRO operation to divide the left and wreck left-unity and solidarity.
Tankies are being manipulated specifically to divide the left, and the ONLY people who talk about left unity are the “Ultras” and “Anarchists” and “Democratic Socialists” - all of whom tankies REFUSE to associate with. Tankies revel in treating them with disdain and contempt and belittlement, pushing them away… rather than bringing them in and being kind, caring people who want to share their viewpoints with in an effort to educate and bring others into the fold. Tankies have ZERO interest in that.
The Feds LOVE that tankies end up isolating themselves by being dickheads and pushing out anyone who might have a chance of being brought over to the revolutionary mindset. They love it. Tankies are doing the work of the feds for them.
I’m sure there’s a place where she could still work… like maybe the 404 page or the maintenance page?
