Democracy is essentially always incompatible with a free society in the first place. Eating dinner with a Nazi isn’t helping Nazis seize power. You’ve probably met genuine sociopaths, people who want to kill or severely harm others. Should you pre-judge them? Is that actually useful for anything?

I know someone online who privately admitted to me to being a pedophile, and is very suicidal. They claim to have never victimized anyone, just thought about it. It makes me very uncomfortable. But I also think if I bluntly said that it would make them more self-destructive, feeling more isolated, and feeling more like they shouldn’t be honest. I think that would lead to them being more likely to victimize someone. This isn’t just a utilitarian calculus though, I genuinely do not want them to suffer. Even though they have disgusting thoughts that could manifest in the suffering of others. What would you do?

What is the point of leaving the table?

Chicago definitely for a fact is known for “Chicago Deep Dish Pizza”. Its not called “Chicago Pizza” because Chicago has a lot of style pizzas, and another famous style named after it. Chicago thin crust/tavern style.

That’s untrue, but they are wrong, in both places are known for deep dish pizza.

I understand why Europeans don’t like pineapple pizza, for some reason all the restaurants here put it on after baking. Genuinely insane

With what you said 1. Someone doesn’t have to be a good person, or be right, to coexist. Sitting at the same table as Pol Pot or Hitler isn’t enabling them.

In my former school district they paid a ton to some consultancy firm to “use AI to optimize the bus route”. The first day of testing the new route many kids didn’t get home until after 9pm. They cancelled school for the rest of the week and then immediately reverted to the old route.

Maybe the best headline that’s come out of the recent LLM explosion

Nah that’s just it, it’s pizza stuff in the form of a casserole

Except it’s called pizza and looks like pizza so it’s in the form of pizza.

Unless you just mean “thick bread crust” then sure but that isn’t deep dish, real deep dish is like a bread bowl casserole.

Detroit style deep dish is also deep dish, but yeah not Chicago style deep dish

Its pizza because it takes the form of pizza and is called pizza

Some American frozen pizzas can be good, but at least in Poland/Czech Republic almost none of it is.

TBH compared to the rest of SEA Vietnamese food is often relatively mild

Which is crazy because pizza I’m Norway is not that good

I didn’t know who she was or her gender when I said I hate her art style is almost as much as Ben Garrison’s.

The issue with doxxing that really frustrates me as a coder is that individual developers and companies are never held responsible for making negligently insecure software.

Extremely obnoxious on Reddit. That is a massive strategy people use, insulting someone and then blocking them so they can’t reply, or even report

What is incredibly toxic is insulting someone and then blocking them, so they can’t defend themselves.

Especially sucks for people with jaw problems who can’t open their mouth that wide. But you’re totally wrong about deep dish pizza

There is not a single country on this planet that has no legal consequences for free speech

Yes.

it would be ridiculous to claim that should be the standard.

I mean, that’s what freedom of speech is. Otherwise its entirely meaningless.

For one, and I feel kind of pedantic for pointing this out, but that kind of policy would preclude any obviously consequential statements made in court proceedings, for example pleading “guilty”, lying under oath,

The consequence there would be essentially signing a contract for honesty, and breaking it. Similar to how you can choose to give up an organ, but you can’t force someone to give up an organ. You chose to sign away your freedom of speech in that instance. Now subpoenas I think there is a compelling argument they are a violation of freedom of speech.

Less pedantically, even in a version of the US where their so-far mythical conception of free speech was actually achieved, legal consequences are assigned to direct, material threats and attempts to cause panic.

The US does not and has never had freedom of speech. This was blatant from at least 1798. I do think the US is marginally closer than most other countries.

You’d be pretty hard pressed to claim these exceptions are unreasonable,

Its not about whether it is reasonable. It is whether it is factually true to call a regime in which speech is controlled as having freedom of speech.

the United States has pursued this exact policy and it has lead to little more than them being one of the leading contemporary examples of how an advanced democracy and economy falls into fascism and mass disenfranchisement.

That is not at all a clear cause and effect.

No one claims that you have an absolute freedom to wave your hands
