wholesome to see this 4chan meme from my teenage years

I agree with you, pedophiles need treatment. It’s obvious their sexual attraction is not under their conscious control, since the condemnation and judgement of pedophiles is so big, no one would consciously choose to be a pedophile. There are studies which links sexual attraction to children to sexual abuse in childhood too.

I disagree however with watering down, or diluting that with a lighter term, MAP, because it’s inadvertently promoting pedophilia through euphemism. Whether they are a rapist or not, a person can be a pedophile, and that’s it, we need to accept that situation. But the act itself, to have sexual attraction to children, is a dangerous thing, because we know children cannot truly consent.

So the negative charge that comes with the term pedophilia did not come out of the blue, it’s a historical development. Pederasts in Greece certainly did not have this taboo over the word describing them. Creating a “neutral” word only removes this historical meaning describing the act. So the question is, should we use euphemisms for pedophilia?

This policy has earned them the trust of many political actors world wide, so I doubt they would change, as it could result in diplomatic disruptions in many countries. This could be used by the US in attempts to isolate the country. But only time will tell.

That title is Meta 😂

Thank you for your response, comrade. And thank you further for your honest criticism. I’m being honest too, so if I’m sound judgemental it’s my difficulty to empathize and arrogance speaking. I’m grateful for you pointing it out to me.

Do you have any loved ones that will miss you? If so, have you talked to them about your decision?

reducing his cult of personality is a good thing as long as it’s executed right

It’s not like this “cult” is imposed from above and could be gone with a decree. The people has admiration and respect for their leader, who comes from a family of historical revolutionaries.

The main impediment in dumping daily prolewiki backups is storage

Jones Manoel

Thanks for the reply!

We need to store 30 GB (safe estimate for 2-3 years) for publicly accessible images and documents. These would be constantly accessed by users. As far as I’ve measured, this could peak up to 2GiB/hour of network transfer

We also need to store up to hundreds of GBs (but less than a TiB in total) for files related to our server and backups, but these would have slow transfer rates, as they are not meant to be constantly touched. We plan on expanding towards other operations besides merely the wiki, so that would take extra space eventually

This is precisely why I asked for advice beforehand. Thank you!

I actually don’t understand how a wiki with 22,000 pages of text and 4,000 files can be “very costly” to host. Please don’t go the wikipedia route with the expenses.

It’s not, we’re fine, but we need to think long-term for growth. We serve more than just one language, and they are growing. Plus, we are thinking of hosting our own communication server, something like Matrix or better. And we need to have storage ready for that.

sounds exactly like them

as an Australian, our culture tends to be almost hyper-sexual at times, and it is really frustrating to deal with that all the time.

As a Brazilian… 😳

I love this kind of music, but I wonder if the lyrics are meant to be understood? lol

You’re not a failure, you just have different preferences than your friends. And that’s okay, everyone is different. You may even enjoy sex, but you could play a higher importance on other things, such as your life, your career, your studies, intellectual exchange

Now, yes, a lot of people are overtly and constantly sexual depending on the culture and social group. If you care a lot about those friends, and you care a lot about the environment you’re in, like, if that’s really your thing, then I’d say just play with it. Make jokes about it to relax the tension you feel in these moments, idk, experiment with it. In the environment and friends you’re coexisting with, this is a part of their social bonding, so you should definitely be a part of it if you care about them… But you don’t have to be gross like they are

asexual means u don’t like people???

even if u don’t like the sexing u can have the company 👨‍🦲 😠 ❤ 🇬🇸

I know this classic text, Jones Manoel is a Brazilian Marxist-Leninist, we’re from the same country 😁

I even met Jones personally. He’s really, really tall, like 190cm+, very muscular and loves to smoke tobacco. Carries with him a tobacco pouch everywhere lol. Great guy, very fun to talk with.

Yes, always. Not just leftist spaces. Every political, social, w/e space has conflict.
