There’s also a good indepth analysis of his dementia by this psychologist. https://youtu.be/l_IWsfLb2xA
Nah. High heels don’t do that. If anything it causes you to lean back to offset the slope.
That posture is a sign of dementia. Specifically fronto temporal dementia.

So that could maybe be used.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•So, how do we start a global revolution.English
5·12 hours agoMany organizations with loose leadership but all with common goals.
That way taking out a leader or even cluster of the movement won’t stop it but just fuel increased determination of the others.
At least that’s what I heard is one way that one side can win against enemies with more tech , weapons, and troops than they.
Also. Let’s not downplay guerilla tactics.
They have always been effective against a bigger enemy.
I think “Arika” could work. Or maybe Awika.
But as someone who has a unique spelling of a common name myself, it sure makes things harder in life.
People say it wrong. Or write it wrong.
I have to spell it out all the time to others if I’m making appointments or something on the phone.
It’s a real pain. Don’t do that to your kids.
In part that power grab is a product of single power hungry people changing laws and pushing for that increase in power. It’s possible a group of 3 might do the same. But it’s maybe not.
If we had a 3 party system and made it so someone from each party was elected that would force more cooperation.
Or… Could also breakdown differences between parties over time. To where ultimately one party controls the other two.
Kinda of like how the democratic party in the U.S is basically Republican now with a handful of exceptions.
I’ve not studied political history so I’m just guessing on how things could play out.
Black slavery really wasn’t that long ago either.
1863
163 years.
That’s roughly only 2 lifetimes ago.
Two.
But yeah segregation was 50 years. People are alive today that weren’t allowed to use the same toilets as whites or share drinking fountains. Restaurants wouldn’t serve them.
Sundown towns. Lynchings.
The latter is still occurring.

31·15 hours agoPlease explain how acknowledging Aipacs existence and motives are a conspiracy. ?
That’s my point. Kids aren’t even at risk of circumventing age restrictions so requiring IDs or banning VPNs is targeting adults privacy. Not protecting kids.
I wear a ladies 5 (US), and have high arches and 6 figure student loan debt.
Don’t low ball me, I know what I have.

They are severely underestimated.
Neil De Grass Tyson posted a video a few days ago about this topic.
I found it … honestly I’m not sure what emotion to say.
Somber, maybe.
Pessimistic.
Disappointed in humans as a species.
But I still recommend it.
“A scientists view of war” https://youtu.be/XI9NG068TwI
Executive counsel of 3 to replace the president.
YesOne person should not be in charge.
I don’t think that’s ever worked out for humanity.
It’s possible a law like that could have slowed down feminism and the right for women to vote by quite a number of years …decades even. Maybe forever.
Because women moved into the work places due to men going to war. And in many ways feminism has its roots in those eras.
Not excusing war. I’m considering alternative effects. Case in point. Women didn’t get the right to vote in Switzerland until 1979.
Yeah, that right. 1979!
God I hope someone invents time travel and fixes this.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is anybody else worried about the lack of diverse opinion here?English
165·1 day agoAre you familiar with tolerance of intolerance?
Yeah so basically when you give right wing ideology any foothold, they eventually take over.
Just like with the rest of the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
I used to have the mindset that censorship of right ideologies wasn’t really ok because surely people would just see how selfish and cruel they were and not give them any time.
But I sure was wrong about that.
Now I take a stronger stance on the matter. Hate has no place in the world. Tolerating it only allows it to flourish.
Otherwise I don’t think other opinions should be censored. Just those promoting bigotry and hate.
And yes there are objective definitions of that. It’s actually pretty simple.
Do you hate someone for being part of a group or identity, OR because they are a shit person ?
First one is bigotry and hate. Second one is not.
I don’t hate Trump cause he’s a Republican. I hate Trump for all the shit he has done.
That said, Criticizing political groups (their politicians) does not fall into being bigoted because I judge based on actions and their intolerance/hate. Like trying to harm trans people. That’s a no no.
We have to be intolerant of intolerance.
If we aren’t, it just keeps making a comeback. Because scapegoating is an easy play by politicians. Always has been.
