What's your stance on "donating" blood plasma?
  • I think that the commenter lives in a country with for-profit hospitals. In Europe hospitals get subsidized so they all make good money and aren't driven to pursue profits. Prices are being kept low because of taxes and social health care. There are some for profit hospitals, but not many.

    Or are you just adding a random fact to the thread?

  • I was thinking the exact same thing. It just feels like 2 extremes. Take the left one, don't put concrete everywhere, and add 80% of the trees from the right.

  • Only if I can use AI and cameras to follow police around, map them, and use pattern recognition to make sure they behave as well.

    Microsoft paves the way for Linux gaming success with plan that would kill kernel-level anti-cheat
  • https://areweanticheatyet.com

    The broken ones sometimes work.

    The only real bad ones are the Denied ones.

    You shouldn't play a game that is Denied anyways because fuck those assholes.

    China rams Philippine ship while 60 Minutes on board; South China Sea tensions could draw U.S. in
  • The Philippines is an ally of the US. And I'm sure that if countries start being violent towards the US, those encounters would be shown to the allies of the US, including discussions on what an alliance entails.

    Your second point is much better though. But trying to liberate Chinese people within China is much different than wanting to defend an ally.

    Plus China is a big bully in the sea there. They literally had the maritime borders they agreed on their official maps, but the last few years they have been redrawing them. It would be the same as Russia deciding their maritime borders are 10 miles from the US shore.

    'It just exploded': Springfield woman claims she never meant to spark false rumors about Haitians
  • Specificities?

    A few out of the top of my head: France, Belgium, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Canada, Australia.

    In all of these countries free speech is a right, but blatant racism, hate speech, or propaganda based upon such basis, can all get you fined and possibly even jailed.

  • Free speech can exist perfectly fine with rules against this kind of stuff. In a lot of western countries where racism and hatespeech can get you in trouble, you are still totally allowed to criticize cultures, immigrants and other stuff like that.

    I got SWAT'ed and handcuffed live while Linux development streaming!
  • I've been in a similar situation where some agents from the anti terrorism brigade came to my door. Sometimes you just have to shut up and work with them how they see fit.

    Nobody was body-slammed, nobody was disrespected, nobody was being held longer than necessary or with excessive force.

    This isn't a situation to turn into hate towards the police. Just get over it and don't be a fucking asshole.

  • Cartels is such a buzzword. Most of them just do normal business. And only cocaine comes trough them outside of America.

    What is your point exactly? Are you merely expressing that you're not moral yourself for posting here? Are you going around telling people who buy stuff from China that they are all enabling child labor and wage slavery?

    Everything can be better, but if you take away something that people like, you kind become responsible for the result. Imagine taking the beer away from somebody enjoying some beer, what's the chance that you'll get your ass kicked? But what happens when a cop takes away the drug of a drug user? Most people just give up, lose their drugs, get fined, and possibly even jailed. It's safe to say that most drug users think your morals are far worse.

    I would even say that you are the one enabling an oppressive force, while cartels just leave us the fuck alone.

  • Isn't racism and hate speech a crime in the USA?

    In many countries you can get a fine or even jail time for blatant racism and hate speech like this.
