Essentially every country settled primarily by Europeans or their descendants, except somehow Latin America, Russia and Belarus, and, debatable, a few other European countries :D And potentially including Israel

Ignoring or shrugging off shit people say about you may actually not be a viable long-term strategy.
Contrary to what many of us have been taught, this actually allows others to reinforce their views about you inside their echo chambers.
That’s not to mention it’s simply not great to hear that stuff said about you or the group you care about, and the longer this drags on, the more toxicity, alienation, and spite inevitably accumulates. None of us are immune to this, and it’s not insane to be hostile to those who are hostile to you.
Heh
Not a Hexbear member, though. Generally, Lemmy is heavily left-leaning.
Yes! The latter part of what you say explains exactly to me why liberals cannot be the center.
Being “for the people” is more of a show here, while they are funded and act in the interest of businesses. When people do demand change that goes against capitalists, they will play everything to keep the spectacle while clearly not choosing people’s side. Often times, they don’t even give concessions - just pretend internal struggles stopped them from implementing the changes. And at the same time, this doesn’t break the logic of liberalism.
My apologies. I previously didn’t see you in civil conversations, while meeting you in your rainy ways twice before, and I could be too quick to conclude. Lemmy is flooded with that kind of stuff lately, which turns brain into a razor mode as a way of protecting against an artificial hate wave.
If you’d like to politely discuss anything, I’m all for it.
Generally, it is the fact that right-wing entails focus on businesses and private property owners, and left-wing entails direct focus on the economic wellbeing of everyone and a more egalitarian society. Liberals do not strike a meaningful balance here, and commonly see business freedoms as paramount to building a prosperous society, generally pursuing business-friendly policies.
In more extreme cases of the political spectrum (which I agree for in terms of clarity and fairness, but which are not really a consensus) left-wing is seen as actual socialism (i.e. collectively/socially owned enterprises) and right-wing is capitalism (i.e. private property and its operation for profit). This makes a useful and clear distinction in relation to economic policy and is not dictated by the hegemony of one option. It also makes centrism virtually impossible, which is good, because the meaning of “center” drifts radically between cultures, and most people tend to just associate with whatever is predominant in their culture while calling themselves such.
Here is how voters of neighboring Canada have put themselves on a political compass, on average, in relation to their party of choice during the 2019 election. Note that liberals are very much not in the center, and more right-wing, while conservatives as well as People’s party (don’t look at the name, it’s seen as far right even by American metrics), predictably, are extremely authoritarian-right.
P.S. Sorry for being a bit rash :)
Which I would certainly engage in if I wouldn’t remember you personally as a troll who cares little of civility.
If someone else is up for debating it, I’m always here.
Also, one thing you genuinely caught me on is a bit of an emotional outburst, while I generally am the one picking civility card. Good job! I do apologize for that part.
The coordinates are heavily skewed and likely to either be formed in a right-wing society or intentionally made as to confuse people.
The point is that it skews the understanding of “left” and “right” to favor the latter.
Essentially serving as a tool to claim socialist policies extreme and liberal ones perfectly balanced.
Liberalism in the center? Gosh, this is the most American political coordinates there could be
It’s almost physically triggering how off-base that is
The reason I moved to lemmy.today is that admins don’t decide for you what you’re allowed to see.
Everything is open, and if you don’t like it - you defederate personally. No one stops you.
“HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point”
Without taking any sides, saying some group is insane and then saying that them lashing back “proves your point” is beyond stupid.
Like, of course they will, what else do you expect them to do? Sit and politely agree?
We should stop with this kind of BS in any sort of debate. Groups will protect themselves, and will not get polite to those who throw slurs at them; that’s natural, normal and speaks nothing about their average behavior.
This never proves any point and is nothing but a dirty rhetorical device aimed to shut your opposition up and make them seem irrelevant. This is not part of any possible healthy conversation.
Also, post is not a genuine question.
Oh, and now you make a great deal of change by putting slurs all over.
Wanna change someone’s mind? Go civil. Wanna vent your anger? Don’t vent it on other people.
I 100% want all copyright to be eliminated, but what you do is counterproductive and rude at best.
Just give the link if you have one
Completely useless rageposting on your side.
Also, the original commenter corrected it later to clarify.
True! Hopefully, their tools are able to suggest ways to safely produce those meds, too.
Also, I strongly hope they’ll build something able to accurately verify that processes went through as intended, with the desired product present and no known and harmful or unknown compounds formed. Chemistry is full of surprises, especially organic one…
I was first on the fence, but yeah, at the very least, it’s a clear signal to big pharma, and I welcome that move. Also, if this will actually get safe, reliable, and controlled enough, I’d love to have some basic spare parts and make my meds at home. But that would probably require something more complex than Microlab.
Don’t trust your life with this unless you have to. Curious project nonetheless!
Perhaps unsurprisingly. Any sort of “assistance” with answers will do that.
Students have to learn why things work the way they do, and they won’t be able to grasp it without going ahead and doing every piece manually.

It’s easier to make cigarettes than vape juice. Everyone can produce them.
No reason to believe it’s any hard to build a similar monopoly on that, too
Guess they meant “Spain and Portugal themselves”
