Haha, no need to thank me!

It was more out of survival instincts and gauging my environment.

Unfortunately, I don't even know what the argument is, so I'd need you to provide context.

I'm just trying to understand how irrational or aggressive Lemmy is towards women.

Thank you for describing the bear vs man thing to me. So it was basically a question posted on social media, and then the reactions to the question (and maybe others' comments) was divisive?

Nice, that's on my bucket list.

Oh no. 😭

Wake up, people. Reject mathematics. Reject formalism.

Yeah, any hierarchical system is susceptible to abuse.

In contrast to the current system, do you think a technocracy would be more vulnerable to these problems?

I'm also interested in hearing your proposal for a non-hierarchical system. I've wanted to look at some decentralized systems (and ironically, Lemmy is sort of like that), but I haven't really found anything that seems promising.

Yeah, I agree that's an issue. In a way, Americans are experiencing that live, today.

What about a variant of technocracy that accounts for conflicts of interest?

These are great suggestions! Already one step ahead of you - most are already on my to-do list as I work on more posts (I'm about 3 posts in now and should finish 2 of them by next week).

I am from the U.S. and am unfortunately not as knowledgeable about specific resources from other countries. However, most resources should be generalizable to everyone who has access to the internet.

I definitely encourage you and others to post whatever resources you do know! A community is stronger with input from everyone. 😌 I'll continue working down my to-do list and posting what I know.

What are you studying? I'm studying quantitative social science.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Subscribed! Thank you. 😌

Oh my gosh, thank you so much. πŸ₯Ί If you know of any evidence-based mental health resources, I'll create a post of them.
