It’s hard to know if you are right or just biased. I am not an expert on this topic but feel bad for animals who live in small cages or tanks alone and feel like if it must be done, it would be nice if they were comfortable. Has a hamster ever been observed doing this in nature or only in captivity?

Are there are any worthy online newspapers specifically investigating this?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Must be nice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
You’re missing the point… if you have a bunch of soft small cedar chips, they are going to shift while sleeping and some part of your hamster body is going to be on hard man-made material on the floor of a cage that is a lot harder than dirt and grass and leaves.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Must be nice⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
cruelty to animals (isolation, pellets on ground that aren’t comfortable enough to make a bed. a hard hard floor under the pellets, day after day of misery and tedium and a form of sensory deprivation, having to use his own body as a pillow because of horrible cruelty) isn’t actually funny!

Completely terrifying. Is anyone, like immigration activists, following up on this? Or is everyone just sort of shrugging and moving on?
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it theoretically possible Trump and ICE are killing a very large number of immigrants (like 25% of those detained) and no one knows?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
How is it possible that 1300+ people have disappeared and there’s not more awareness? Are the news channels not covering it or investigating it?

Oh no! Not Microslop! They’re my favorite! What do I do?

My concern is that there is enough documentation on who isn’t calling people, who has no connection to anyone…

If there were racist genocidal people within the system and they were able to recognize each other (via tattoos, memberships) and then assign each other to certain duties, if certain people were put into cargo planes and dumped over the ocean, I’m not sure anyone would know.

It’s very hard to communicate with people in places like that if a person doesn’t have money or anyone willing to accept a call. If someone who was a racist genocidal person was put in charge of putting people into groups (based on lawyers, family contact, etc), people who were completely disconnected could be put into a unique group, put in a certain part of a facility, and flown in cargo planes together.

I just don’t know how likely this is. CECOT is a facility that holds people in a way that many international organizations would consider torture. If people were being killed in there, including people deported by the USA, I am very sure people would not know.

If we don’t know where 1200 people who were previously detained have gone as a society, and if there’s no record of where they were sent, it’s hard to fathom the state didn’t kill them, although I don’t know.

I’m very ignorant on all of this. 25% was just a randomly chosen number. But what about 10% or 5%? I just don’t entirely understand the purpose of making immigrants being deported untrackable unless the point is to make it easier to kill them, because if the purpose was just to make it harder to legally contest deportation, the system could just be very slow but have slow tracking built into it… but it doesn’t have that, right? I really don’t know the answers to any of this.

People who use lemmy are a very particular subset, people who self-host another, and you are posting this, saying various things about the government in a long AI-generated post, then claiming you wrote it yourself. People don’t randomly lie. You’re being paid.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-hosting in 2025 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Your post is CLEARLY written by AI. Your responses aren’t. So you’re being deceptive.

Your posting in a self-hosted community, preaching self-hosting to people who already do it. You could very well be trying to identify people who hold more unusual views about technology and harbor anti-governemnt sentiments. You think people here are stupid? You’re clearly a liar and probably working for someone. No one lies like that without an agenda.

shut the fuck up you liar

You’re a liar. No one is that influenced. The post is AI, your responses aren’t. Who are you?

This thread is by a malicious actor trying to collect data on lemmy users.

It’s something someone could have generated on their own, but the diction and linguistic style is similar to AI.

“Before you roll your eyes about this getting political - stay with me, because” - linguistic style of AI

“Not by some rogue actor, but by a system functioning exactly as designed.” -linguistic style of AI

“This isn’t about being a prepper or going off-grid. This is about building infrastructure that operates on fundamentally different principles:” -linguistic style of AI

Your responses to people accusing you of being AI seem human. So who are you? What are you? Are you a government agent trying to do data collection on people? Why write the post with AI, basically trying to collect data on users here or get data about users, and then deny it’s AI when it clearly is?

Yes, people are being influenced by AI writing styles but NO ONE IS THIS INFLUENCED. You’re fucking lying. FUCK YOU.

This is a great point. Specifically an increase in economic education required of students would be helpful, including helpful for things like understanding environmental science, because externalities and environmental science and regulation have overlap that most don’t understand.

lol! oh shit, thanks for reducing my ignorance slightly! lol, you got me. that’s terrible.

does git clone multiple things, not just github? fuck me, i have a lot to learn still…

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft Closes Canadian Studio After It Unionizes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
I completely agree. This isn’t so much a failure of business; it’s a failure of the government to properly hurt businesses that enact policies that hurt workers and consumers. And in democratic countries with voters, it’s also the failure of the voters.

This is why we need people like Lina Khan to be given much more power in society. There are good, liberal economists out there who understand that if you don’t regulate externalities, then market systems will cause extreme disfunction in society. Smart economists understand this, elite rich people understand it,the problem is that the bottom tier of society that is ignorant and believes in religious myths is easily deceived by the upper classes.

The result is a society with progressively more unequal wealth distribution, rapidly descending into environmental hell, with a public that is mostly confused, religious, and idiotic upset about market conditions, but glad the evil trans girl won’t be able to play softball.

All of these issues are part of the same problem: how do you convince the poor and stupid to not get tricked by the elite again? But perhaps it’s just impossible. After all, the poor are mostly religious and believe in crazy things like virgin births and flat earth… Until the poor reject such lunacy, or society becomes so awful that they are compelled to reject it, there’s really not much hope for change.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
So in that situation you need beans and rice and water purification (filters) that last 3 years. It’s expensive, but not impossible. There are people who already have that stored, and most of those people are very smart and well-prepared.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Just to be a devil’s advocate: fear is an evolutionary response and is there for a reason and is sometimes highly rational. Talking yourself out of fear to conform to society’s expectations is not always smart.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
It’s great advice about storing water for an emergency.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
I disagree. Someone who really prepares by storing food, having a place underground to survive for a period, and takes sufficient precautions could live. It would be expensive and difficult to prepare, and even then may not work, but I don’t think it’s true that people can’t try to prepare at all.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I am so scared of nuclear war, how do I cope with it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
People will probably not agree with me, but I think:
1. You are not overreacting, although AI sometimes tells me that risks of nuclear disaster aren’t that high and I’m over-estimating.
2. You can control things somewhat by preparing as much as you can to survive such a situation
But… preparing to try to survive nuclear war will require radical action possibly, especially if you live in a risky area that is more likely to be impacted.

What is preparation? It means getting the Potassium Iodine tablets, it means having food stored, it means having solar backups, ideally it means having a place where you can survive underground. It requires major changes, expenses, and enduring hardship if you are wrong.

I feel like there are two competing ways to look at this situation. 1) The elite control society, and they would not want to make society unlivable for them and their children, therefore nuclear war is an idea primarily to scare us and control us. The other option is 2) no one is steering the ship, the elite are greedy psychopaths and who knows what the hell will happen, and eventually conflict likely is going to happen and it will be ugly.

In World War 2, before Hitler came into power, some Jews in Europe were like “I’m worried about this situation, the political situation here is generally iffy, I’m getting the fuck out of here” and left and went to America… and then didn’t die as a result. Fear sometimes is what saves people, even if it seems crazy. I realize immigration to a new place is much harder in today’s world (especially to the USA, but in a global conflict, the USA probably wouldn’t be a great place to be).

Some advice about moving away from a major city may not be enough. Don’t be near a major city, military base, critical infrastructure… and then, that actually will only save you in a limited strike situation. In a worst case situation, everyone near the strikes is dead, and only people far far away survive, and even those people struggle with food shortages, radioactive fallout spreading across the globe. Just being in rural America not near bases or cities may not be enough.

You either use that fear to prepare, or you accept that there is a possibility death could happen from a lack of preparation, as can death happen at any time, and take up Buddhism or meditation or religion or ways to carry on and accept that death is sometimes a part of life.
