My dream: to be that person who gets to yell “It’s Morphin time!” and save the day.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Uplifting News@lemmy.world•Finland to criminalise Holocaust denialEnglish1·6 days agoI must be mistaken. I thought the EU had made it illegal. Finland is part of the EU last I checked.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•Ben & Jerry’s co-founder arrested after disrupting Senate hearing with pro-Gaza protest6·7 days agoSaying “pro-Gaza” in my opinion is code for bigot. At this point there is nothing you can do to justify why those people have to be killed. No reason to justify why they can’t have land to live on. No reason why caring about fellow humans is a the wrong side.
If you are defending the right for the state of Israel to commit genocide (which apparently isn’t the worst crisis on this planet according to a BBC kyron from April I saw quoting the UN; it was about Sudan I believe) by continuing to wipe out Palestinian people, for existing, you are not a good person.
Therefore, switching pro-Hamas to pro-Gaza is literally acknowledging that they are no longer covering up the lie. These people used to lump everyone in with Hamas when there is historical evidence that the Palestinian people are not a monolith which supported the terror group. In fact there is historical evidence that politicians in Israel have always meant for the two groups to be equated. All the label changing does is tell you that they have hatred for people living in Gaza.
The same applies to Israel and the Jewish people. Just because someone does not agree with the actions of the Israeli government and/or military, does not mean they have hatred towards Jewish people. That unfairly puts actual Jewish people into a group of antisemites. Being anti-Israeli ≠ antisemitism. Being anti-Jewish = antisemitism.
I really wish the world could be a place where humans were respected as individuals who should exist because they are all different. Instead history shows that lots of us believe humans should only be respected as individuals because they are the same. No. We should respect each other because we are different. That doesn’t mean I need to like you or accept what you do as a person. But your existence should be seen as beautiful. I should be able to celebrate the fact you are different from me in many ways. We don’t have to get along but you as a person belong here. No one should tell you that your race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sex, gender, political beliefs, etc. mean your kind should cease to exist. I’m not saying that you need to love the bigot that lives next door, but that you can respect that they exist and that there are many more people who are uniquely different.

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•New Bill Would Make All Pornography a Federal Crime in the U.S.3·9 days agoThat wasn’t what I read. The specific words were “legally non-existent” as in they don’t exist. It could be gender fraud is what was implied but not how it was explained.

Please leave The Matrix out of this. Seriously, do not compare any of that to The Matrix. It is a trans-allegory. If anything, not enough people know that. So many fucking Red Pill douchebags who would renounce the franchise once they learned that.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto News@lemmy.world•New Bill Would Make All Pornography a Federal Crime in the U.S.16·10 days agoI read somewhere that Texas is trying (as in someone in the legislature) to make transgender people legally non-existent. Apparently the same shit I read is being attempted in the UK.
I thought that was mice?
I know this isn’t quite the same but I’m getting Heavens Gate vibes. Not good.

Seriously. He is not White, German, blue eyed and blonde. Am I missing something other than a likely mental health problem that is causing this dude to write and record such music?

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Paul McCartney and Dua Lipa urge UK Prime Minister to rethink his AI copyright plans. A new law could soon allow AI companies to use copyrighted material without permission. English210·12 days agoNo it isn’t but I still refuse to choose on purpose to listen to that song. I don’t even know the name.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I can’t stop from hearing the song out in the wild. However I will not seek it out. I just do not want to hear a song purposefully made with AI in such a manner. I’m still bitter that LOVE won a Grammy over the soundtrack to Across the Universe. They only gave the award to LOVE because George Martin was involved in it.

I’d send them that clip of Will Arnet being corrected on LEGO Masters about the grammatical plural of LEGO. That would be my reply. At least criticize them with proper grammar.
