You ( the US ) are at such a level that the onion type jokes are now indistinguishable from real news

I really do hope she is wrong on the « The past decade has been a gloomy lesson in how limited a proportion of men actually see women as equal human beings. »… I really do hope that the indecency of powerful people doesn’t mean decency has disappeared… but really cant vouch for that hope…

Thanks for sharing…. It calls some good memories of this Anime !

Ça m’a déclenché une recherche sur le sujet et il y’a visiblement plusieurs écoles de pensées sur le sujet qui place plus ou moins de responsabilité sur l’émetteur/recepteur…. Très intéressant sur la polarisation politique…

Super intéressant parce que c’est super large comme discussion et ferait un bon sujet de philo au bac: « qui de l’émetteur ou du récepteur est responsable de prendre les actions face aux trigger »…
Si c’est le recepteur, c’est impunité et micro-agression
Si c’est l’émetteur, c’est l’auto-censure …

J’utilise une pelle pour ramasser… LA TERRE TOMBÉE ???
Yeah of course Duolingo, during the marvelous season of stroingt where earth is falling from the sky !
:D if a French and even a quebecer was telling this exact sentence I would look at him with a big WTF in my eyes

Coming from… a Bluesky list pointing French speaking artists, where you were listed ;) but English is ok too ! Glad to discover your art !

Just a stretched parallel…
« everyone should have access to guns.
But there are mass shootings…
We can’t change it because of 2nd amendment. »
« Everyone should be able to tell whatever.
-But there is a huge rise of calls for violence, hate, and anti democracy.
We can’t change it because of 1st… »

… core beliefs, don’t you think ???

… authoritarism, there are more safeguards of type of hate speech that is not acceptable and has prevented the landslide of hate, violence and antisocial behavior that are currently shaking the US… you are currently failing at democracy, so it may be time to requestion some of your …

… is to me a major difference between American political culture ( with sacralization of the 1st amendment ) and European political culture ( that know firsthand that letting such speech root opens some very dangerous doors )… and while Europe is also facing a rampant slide towards …

I am always surprised that the US debate on that subject seems totally exempt of comparison with democracies that have implemented them more or less successfully… there is a possibility that it is instrumentlized or that it creeps to more and more categories… but the lack of such regulation… 1-

Well, Europe has hate speech laws much more than the US, and while we have a right wing rise, you are further ahead… so they are not inherently bad.
I find US political debate has a lot of those « taboos » without ever looking if it works in other democracies ( strike the other )

Quite crazy to me as a French citizen, having had all my life an ID card in a democratic country that this concept is in the Us associated only to authoritarian regimes… isn’t it crazy that only people that drive cars are able to prove their identity ?

« It is our Reichstag Fire »
1- the reichstag Fire was an event that cimented Hitler’s dictatorship by allowing emergency powers against his opponents
2- it is debated if it was a genuine communist act or organized by the nazis

Ta réponse est plutôt bonne et meilleure que celle de l’IA.
Quelques idées:
« Fabriqué » n’est pas « made » mais plutôt « manufactured » donc weird dans le contexte
« C’est quoi cette histoire, bordel ! C’est une réponse générée par IA ou quoi ? »

Response in French to help:
La construction est effectivement bizarre:
Le retour à la ligne à chaque morceau de phrase
L’absence de ponctuation et de « des ».
«  Le vrai secret ? Utiliser des lingettes pour bébé ! »
Par contre « mec » est ringard même pour un Gen X comme moi

Refusing to do anything to address raising intolerance has led the Us to where they are. While being careful about the excesses of infringement, MAGA is demonstrating enough that illeberals will use the liberal tools against democracy… so prevention like in Europe is necessary!
