Asked about the finding that social cohesion did not justify the law, Minns took aim at the Greens for supporting protesters charged after February’s anti-Herzog protest at Sydney’s town hall, when the law was in force. The rally is now subject of a police watchdog investigation into allegations of police misconduct and brutality.

🙃

Interesting I think is where Tom closes out, about how the cops used purity tests, gossip, and drama to undermine movements and create divisions.

Something to think about, amidst the endless purity wars on lemmy.

I basically manually exclude results after 2021 now because the internet sucks. I found this addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/duckduckgo-date-range/ but it is buggy and doesn't remember settings between sessions.

Willing to look at self hosting. It's tedious to always set a date range.

Don't worry though, if you view the package from above (very natural for something hung at eye level) and ignore all the deceptive graphics implying 2 sticks are in there then it technically does state that it is a "starter kit"

This is obviously designed to decieve right? Like no matter what they technically say it is deliberately printed to obscure that the sheath is not around the tube and is actually the second tube, while placing the description in a hidden way. Isn't this sort of anti-customer packaging like specifically not allowed here?

I enjoy books more than internet essays. Sue me.

Everyone could always stand to read more, I think gelderloos is a reactionary shithead who deserves to be trampled to death by a horde of escaped cattle slaves, have read bookchin and graeber and enjoyed them both.

I've also read most of C. Scott's work which is interesting generally although the man seemed a bit incoherent.

Who are some modern anarchist authors worth reading? Give me your difficult academic texts where I'll have to check 200 references. I fucking love them!

Seeing protestors, wave the goddamned flag of the shah (or at least permit people waving it in their number).

This is why you need theory and history. They play games with our fucking lives, divide and conquer has been the name of the game for more than half a millenia now.

Hmmmm seems like some pro labor mod is doing some apologia for crimes that people hung at Nuremberg for.

Forgive me for dispensing with civility while hellfire rains down.

I would prefer this post be restored or the rules be updated for clarity

I came across this after someone I know made some claims about pedophilia prevalence I found unbelievable. Leading me to the survey.

Surveys are hard, there's always some percentage of people that say strange things, and self reports could be over or underestimates of prevalence.

I think that the way the results bundle 19 year old who watch a porn video that had a 17 year old in it, and 50 year old that watched a porn video of a 5 year old together is needlessly inflammatory. While neither is good I think culturally we are generally vastly more worried about what leads to the second, or even what makes the 50 year old look for 17 year olds (i.e. cases where the 19 year old didn't grow out of it).

Still, some of these stats are extremely troubling to me, and I'm interested in what people make of it.
