voiding all IP law would literally bankrupt the entire media industry, crashing tens if not hundreds of billions out of the industry practically overnight.

Why is it possible to sell copies of public domain books when we have libraries?
because somebody physically produces the book wdym?
btw just because something is in the public domain, doesn’t mean that every variant attached to it is, just the one specifically defined under law, a book that is in the public domain, but also on the shelves of a retailer, might not be a public domain work at all. Because it’s a different work entirely.
I’m not even sure you can prevent the production of a work, just because it’s public domain, you just can’t hold copyright on it, so you could theoretically print and sell a book in the public domain legally, as long as you don’t declare that you own copyright.

IP law and copyright is really important. It protects people from companies, and companies from bad actors.

i almost never delete things i post on the internet, i’m a firm believer in sillyposting because the nothing is sacred.
IDK, call it a character badge or whatever you want. It’s just how i am.

i seriously doubt you have any concrete view of politics or sociology to begin with.

a picture of (not me) because i don’t approach women in the club. Because i don’t go clubbing.
Shit’s weird, i’m staying home, no thanks.
Good meme though.

lmao good meme, sounds like a mess ngl.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
yeah, it’s a dead beat joke, it’s come around to the point now where you can do it ironically and nobody cares. Though i guess you could still just be an asshole at that point lmao.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
no, i don’t think that’s a reasonable answer, because you’re doing the fascist thing of “these people are wrong they need to change, and if they don’t we can justify whatever shitty behavior we want, because we’re morally superior”
It’s not dissimilar to a lot of nazi rhetoric.
I think the problem ultimately stems from a disconnect in social development through out society. Feminism has pushed women forward, successfully in a lot of ways, but it has also pulled men back, in a lot of ways, that’s not necessarily bad, but there is now a void there, and there is nothing filling it in, that’s why the manosphere got so big so fast. It’s literally capitalizing on an empty market.
If you want to solve the manosphere, the solution is simple, we need to fill in the void, and fix this disconnect that’s been happening for probably 75 years now. How we go about that is complicated, and not particularly simple, but i think it’s pretty clearly evident that the problem is aimless/directionless guidance for men especially in the last 20 years. Paired with historically contradictory ideas of manhood. Men are supposed to be strong and protect the weak, but it’s hard to do that when they don’t want it, or need it.
Once this void is filled in, this shit stops happening, simple as.

Its arguably worse that than comment itself. God I wish there was a male loneliness epidemic because these fuckers stopped talking.
oh no funny man on the internet yaps a lot about things.
I come here for sociological research more than anything.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
yeah bro, it’s the internet, everybody has opinions.
“yeah so actually i think this is a big problem”
“yeah evidently it must be a problem, but like, this has always been a problem, and seems to be a consistent problem”
“YOU’RE LITERALLY THE PROBLEM!!!”
Lemmy User: It’s not really about women. Everyone suffers from this.
also to be clear, you are literally straw-manning me here, i’m not saying that “men have to suffer with women having an opinions” nobody cares, it is what it is, i think it’s interesting actually. You’re the one arguing that because people discuss topics that they find personally relevant is somehow “oppressing women”
I’m not saying you shouldn’t shitpost about that stuff in shitpost threads, by all means do, there’s interesting dialogue in it. I’m just saying this is a common occurrence anywhere on the internet, for any community. Hell go find a community for something as mundane as lego, you’ll find the same shit there.
Not everybody NEEDS to have their own specific issue that specifically effects them for it to be a valid or real problem. I just think this issue is far broader than most people expect it to be, ironically, i could argue you’re literally behaving the exact same way you claim i am. Because you are, and that’s exactly what’s happening.
Do i care? No, i don’t it’s the internet do whatever you want.

i’ve never seen a pro genocide lemmy instance, everytime i’ve argued against it i’ve been banned or moderated on, granted my instance isn’t pro genocide, so there’s that. But that seems to be a regular occurrence on lemmy in my experience.
I posted one thing on the one hexbear thread people used and immediately got banned lmao, what a terrible instance. I just ended up blocking the whole thing because why even bother at that point.

unless you have an external opinion, in which case they fucking lynch you.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
i mean, i don’t see anything necessarily wrong with it though.
It’s like making a linux specific lemmy instance, or an anarchist focused lemmy instance (the one im on)
it might go against the principles of lemmy, but there’s nothing inherently wrong with it.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
with enough admin and moderation you could circle jerk your way into a “woman positive” or “woman friendly space” which would be the idea.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
i wonder if it’s not just worse on lemmy, but gotten worse over time, with the manosphere shit and all it’s relevant problems, neither feminism nor the manosphere, or traditional male gender role has really addressed this issue comprehensively, and we’re starting to see pushback from this issue in real life now, men are enrolling into college less than women, they do worse in most environments, and also are generally worse when it comes to mental health.
I wonder if we just need like a dedicated “social issues space” where people can talk about this stuff.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
“dragonfucker” and “attack helicopter”
i mean, if they’re doing it as a haha funny, i see no harm, but if they’re also being assholes, i think that takes precedent. You aren’t legally required to fill in your gender tagging appropriately so.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 weeks ago:
Try making any post that focuses on situations uniquely or disproportionally experienced by women and you get mostly “what about men” or “men have it worst” responses.
that’s kind of just how controversial things are on the internet though.
Evens shitposting from men will get similar responses from women, it’s just how it is now. Sort of always has been.

- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 2 weeks ago:
Even that article is wrong bcs there are plenty videos where the public see this dupe get on the roof 30 minutes before, not just “one kid”.
i didn’t say one kid saw him? And getting up there 20 minutes before the rally is not “a long time” that’s 20 minutes. Should they have known about it? Yes, did they? Yes. Did the ground police do anything about it? No, because they didn’t have functional communication.
No way this would happen in reality.
i mean this is literally the one valid explanation for why this managed to happen at all, the only other option is that it was a complete conspiracy, and i’ve seen no evidence to support that, and given the fact that police, and secret service, are two different entities, i’m going to align with the former.
Reporting he was “shot trough the ear” and not having any sign of any wound 4 days later in 4K close ups is not possible.
he wasn’t “shot through the ear” the reporting is just wrong. It’s evident from the video, from the bleeding, and from the wound, he simply wasn’t “shot in the ear” he was grazed by a bullet at best, cut his ear on the way down at worst.
Extended healthcare can’t do miracles. What a laughable excuse.
for a minor injury? Yeah it can. I’ve seen 2nd degree burns go away in a couple of days from ointment. Shits wack when you have the right tools for the job.
Sure, do you actually believe the potocol is no to take into account a second shooter?
that’s possible, but are there are any good circumstances for this to be the case? Even when he did stand up, SS was crowded around him, it would be very difficult to take a good shot from that point, at which point SS are likely watching like a hawk.
And you admit he got up after this.
i mean yeah… If you watch the video, he literally does this. The most famous image of that year was literally him standing. Like idk why you’re acting like this is WITHOUT A DOUBT proof that it’s conspiracy, it’s evident that it happened.
Standing there wanting to get his shoes and then having his planned photo.
not everybody thinks clearly in situations like this, especially old people, the job of the SS is to protect him, if they deemed it unimportant, they would’ve carted him off sooner.
The SS stood somewhat around him, in no way were they ‘piled up’ on his as they should be constantly.
you can literally watch the video, the center mass of his body is very clearly blocked, the head is not a particularly good target, as evidenced by the fact that he fucking missed.
Shinzo Abe or other events are irrelevant.
I mean yeah, to this particular event, but do you think his killing was a conspiracy?
OC attempts can happen, but here nothing adds up and you can’t but laugh at this pathetic spectacle or the fools believing it.
i mean, it’s literally just weird at best, i’ve seen weirder, look at any shooting through history. They’re all weird as fuck.
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 2 weeks ago:
yeah that’s technically true, but they’ve done basically everything they already can, nothing happening today is “new” it’s old news. That’s what i mean when i say “lame duck”
And technically, from the perspective of nearly no consequences, this is literally a lame duck president all the way through, but that’s not really a fully accurate telling.
you don’t need to tell me what this administration is bad at, trust me, i know.

The problem in NY is that the cars are too big for the lanes to do that.
the only place available for people to do this is parking lanes and bus/bike lanes.

theres people on it? Like regularly?
Also i doubt an ambulance would even fit in most places, chances are it’s going to get stuck, immediately.

no he literally is lmao.
Hes the best option we have under the current trump admin, this admin is a fucking meme bro.
