even if they were saying that they hate jews, and being actually anti-semitic, it is still perfectly legal and should not be grounds for deportation, regardless.
Larceny
There has been a bunch of media that warranted legitimate disdain, however the anti-woke angle was the biggest focus
Yes, and growth is sustained by striking a balance of quality and quantity in terms of the human population. If this balance becomes out of whack you will decline into what they refer to as "malthusian stagnation". So the population does need to grow in order to sustain economic growth, along with the quality of the individuals that make up the population. What they refer to as "economic darwinism" beings to truly take place as a population has the extra resources to put more into children than parent, creating generational progress. Post industrial economic darwinism gets a buffer, so-to-speak, due to the increased per capita productivity introduced by technology. However this is also not infinite, and so, at some point this will plateau, and the population will need to begin rising again to spur growth. We are likely in the midst of this plateauing.
For a really bad summary? Capitalism requires economic growth, business, industry, etc. must increase output, therefore the consumer base must increase, and so it goes with the true labor underclass. For a real explanation check the link below to a PDF file of a dissertation on the subject.

Many are concerned. Capitalism requires a growing population. It is just they seem to believe force is the way to go.
Huh? Leela! Leela. So it's you I've been attracted to. Oh, God, I've never been so happy to be beaten up by a woman.
There is an old man in my building, who got into video games about 10 years ago, when his wife died. When I first moved in I played games with him fairly often. After I knew him about a year, he exposed himself as racist. So I just faded away from interacting with him, too old to bother lecturing, so I just stopped socializing with him. I do see him around, and we make small talk, in the halls, elevator, etc.
Anyway, now that you have context, I ran into him in the elevator when Shadows first came out. He said he had been playing it, and asked if I had. I said I didn't then told him I was a little surprised he bothered with it. He said "Cause you play a colored samurai?" I said that I figured it wouldn't be his thing, a lot of people didn't like the idea. He replied "He was a real person, though" I told him a lot of people were mad about it, he said "it's just a game". So, if a racist, 83 year old, man didn't see the issue here, these people have to be seeking things to be mad about. He doesn't do much online though. Only social media he does is look at FB when his kids tell him they posted new pics of the grand kids, or whatever. This is purely a symptom of being terminally online.
yes, some of things they do are real, proven, therapy, techniques. If you would benefit from any of them PT will make it part of your therapy regimen.
Let's ask Gen. Brown Jr. how many times he has leaked war plans through messengers. I am sure he could go on for hours.
Gotta love when foreigners try to correct you on your language
A lot of places that are "full of tankies" actually have more people not like that in them. However, the moderation is another story. So while you may not get that feeling from the general user base, that is because it is often the mods people are talking about. Unless it's like hexbear, which were brigading and shit.
Just more evidence to push towards "they are targeting places as fringe as lemmy now" conclusion in our previous conversation.
I read a report on how a lot of tiny fora, and other sites with comment functions, were getting barraged with russian bot traffic. They use web scrapers to pick up on sites that have comment functions, of any kind, and that tells the bot network to start automated posting there. Often it is so strong they effectively DDOS a lot of these personally run places. However, this account doesn't feel like that. This leads me to believe one of the possibilities I previously suggested. It is a mod, it is someone with mental illness that, for whatever reason, was having a moment of clarity that one time, or even lemmy is being targeted. If it is targeted, that makes me think that russian prop-pushing organizations have so thoroughly saturated the internet, they now have to seek fringe spaces online, in order to keep quotas, or something like that, up.
Yeah that is strange, in a suspicious way. Is it the prop-pushing account of a mod? Is there some sort of actual move to infiltrate things as small as lemmy? Did they take their meds that day?
It isn't though. The mod tools for lemmy are super primitive compared to the moderation tool suites that exist for reddit. These subs live because they have these in-depth mod tools. Tight, on point, moderation is key to keeping these places one topic, and of quality. Also, we don't have the user base. While I guarantee there are a decent amount of subject experts on lemmy, I have seen them myself, you need enough to be posting/dealing with posts multiple times a day, in any given subject. So, not only do you have to have a body of expertise large enough to cover the topics, and rate of posts, you have to keep in mind these people also have to want to do this. Most people like that don't want to add that amount of extra work, and stress, to their lives.
Seems for the tests they mixed a number of known cancerous images, from biopsied tissue, and mixed a bunch of imaged tissues, known to be cancer free. They then randomized the images and processed them with this AI, and it was able to find cancerous vs non-cancerous tissue, at a rate significantly higher than doctors.
They are also seeing a lot of success in using similarly purposed AI for finding pathology presented in a wide variety of images, including MRI, CT, X-ray, etc.
Unfortunately I stopped going to reddit for sports info before I left. I just kept running into increasingly toxic people, over what is such a low stakes subject. It wasn't just reddit, I also gave up on televised sports because watching sports feels like I am watching ads that are occasionally broken up by bumps of sports. Even friends who are WAY more into sports have pretty much given up on watching them. Also, the way that sports is handled across streaming platforms I find enraging.
I think it is less that, and more that establishing a large enough body of experts requires a very large audience to pull from, and on top of that it took years, and lots of work, to get them established, and working correctly, so it will be very difficult to move.
