Stolen from? The English got invaded by the Romans, Normans, Vikings etc. Didn’t have much choice in that word adoption.

Works for the devil and then complains it’s evil.

Kind of on you, buddy. If you can get a job there, you can get a job many places and not be complicit in this.

Is there an accepted definition for feminism or is it a case of “we love this thing so everything good with the world is feminism”? I mean is Christmas feminism? People get together and care for their fellow people? Is X factor feminism? Everyone gets around a TV set and cares for their favourite acts.

I appreciate those 2 points are ridiculous and intentionally so. The point being definitions are important. If you cannot define something, its everything and nothing all at once. To many, feminism seems to come across a little cultish and becomes very easy for folk to highlight examples that ridicule it. Before long, no one would admit they are or support it. That’s the real danger.

To be fully clear, I think feminism is very important and is needed to resolve many ills in this world, but the way it’s used leaves absolutely confusion. I don’t think anyone outside online activists understand it.

Isn’t that egalitarianism?

It feels like it’s repackaging feminism into something it is not.

I am someone that has had anxiety and sought professional help for it.

The way I didn’t improve it, was by avoiding it and staying in my comfort zone. I had to push myself into situations that made me anxious in order to de-arm it. So the bodies fight or flight reflex doesn’t kick in. So the body becomes aware it isn’t a threat that requires that physical reaction. Expanding my comfort zone if you will. Obviously some folk will have very valid reasons why that approach may be much more challenging, but avoiding supermarket checkout staff is an extreme level of avoidance. Professional help would be much better for that than self-service tills.

They’re cheap headphones. Cheap shampoo should be expected. Don’t touch the brand. Likely crap. Products not fit for purpose.

They won’t staff them until they consistently have longer queues and see a risk.

Only way to get more checkouts is favour shops with staff and shorter queues that are staffed.

And still, you can ignore the person, swipe card and you keep someone in a job.

Staff don’t always want to talk, but they still would like a job.

If we stay in our comfort zone, our comfort zone shrinks smaller.

You’re right. Thanks.

Leftists didn’t. Labour was left under Corbyn, but the right of the party undermined him and now run the country. Campaigning against immigration, cutting disability benefits over tax rises, preventing access to puberty blockers. Not providing a view on trans bathroom access after legal clarification that screwed rights. Nothing about them is economically or socially left wing.

Oh, and last 20 years have been under Tory rule minus 5 from 2005 to 2010 under a New Labour right leaning labour under Blair that Keir idolised.

I do agree the problem is autocrats though.

Ughhh. It’s git. Same technology.

It’s worth learning a bit more about technology.

They probably don’t. If you see a sudden FUD, it could be astroturfing.

Because typing in bank details every time is a pain and saving them is a big no no as many companies seem to get hacked. Trusting only 1 company with bank details limits the blast radius.

Oh I haven’t. I’m not in the US, but I was team Bernie. However, it’s a truce now until the nazis are out.

DNC suck, but they’re much better than fascists. Many need to be primaries the fuck out, but right now, Dems are best way to try and claw back whatever democracy is left.

An elaborate way of scientists saying we have no idea.

It’s like doctors and idiopathic conditions.

Maybe not. Signed former Spotify user looking to get albums second hand and rip for personal consumption.

Fuck Keir Stalin.

I was referring to their credibility being short lived. I have no idea of their AGI usage. I’m still annoyed that when the UK Labour party had a left wing leader, they spent a lot of effort discrediting him. They’re usually crap on Israel/Palestine and have been historically pro-zionist on the UK site.

It was short lived. It is often called the Grauniad because of poor quality typos etc. historically.

AI dick measuring contest?
