Vaccinations to prevent cervical cancer have plummeted in Britain

Just wanted to share some woke shit from the «Magnus Lagabøtes landslov» an ~800 year old Norwegian law.
«It is understandable that someone who cannot find work to support themselves steals food, and in that way saves their life from hunger, then they should not be punished for that theft.»
ALL of the pressure is still for being right-handed, everything is designed for right-handed people, it only become a little less socially unacceptable to be left handed.
So if the rest of those people were just malleable to social pressures, they'd still be claiming to be right-handed.
I'm just going to conclude that this is ragebait.
Well played sir! You've successfully tricked a everyone into thinking you are exactly the kind of illiterate techie the tweet is criticizing, and they're probably calling you out now in a way that you could describe with the definition in your bait.

I genuinely thought that as a trans woman, if ceded some points with the gender critical crowd we could have a healthier conversation and arrive at better public policy. The problem is, they are getting crazier and more extreme. If you admit "trans women don't belong in women's sports" they agree, but call you a man the whole time. If you admit, "I understand I am a biological man, but this is how I want to live my life and talking about me like this is degrading" they scream about free speech. If you admit that hurtful language is part of free speech but you don't have to associate with people that degrade you, they act like the victim and call you a man and then say you should be thrown in an insane asylum. It's like this on everything. They are incapable of looking for a middle ground on bathrooms. They want maximalist policies on everything. They'd throw a fully transitioned, fully passing trans woman in male prison genpop and laugh as she got aids from being raped. I want a middle ground on so many of these polices. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS THEY DO NOT. They enjoy degrading us, it's fun for them. So, sisters. I genuinely don't know what to do. I think many of our most extreme ideas are bad. But theirs are worse. So if I have to pick, I choose us. I wish there were a political vehicle for compromise and medical safeguarding. But that just simply does not exist.

What is the middle ground?
Only killing half the group and letting the other half suffer?
What could possibly motivate them to settle for it?
Jeg blir bekymret over at landets nivå av ekspertise på ytringsfrihet kanskje utgjør den større faren for demokratiet.

When Christians, or any such group, is slaughtered like is happening in Nigeria (3,100 versus 4,476 Worldwide), something must be done!

i meant the pop-up kind specifically. My browser (firefox) seems to block them without any plugins, I thought that was just the industry standard.

Damn. I thought people gave up on making them because they always get blocked, but I guess enough people just didn't start blocking them that they must still be worth making.
All google needs to do is avoid showing you ads for their direct competitors products at a time you'd be receptive to switch, and then they can keep their own products as bad for you as a user as they could possibly want to.
Never rely on only one source
So, I recommend Qwant.
Some other search engines I'd like more people to try for a while are Ecosia, Dogpile, DuckDuckGo and Stract.
Ofcourse there are also a bunch of other alternatives.
Oddly, being the biggest economic entity somehow doesn't mean still having the best search engine.
Hey, did you know you can literally just pick a search engine to try for a while simply because you don't HAVE to use the increasingly worse than average google products?
Like Qwant, Stract, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia or Dogpile. Pick a couple and try them out for a little while. They won't bite, probably.

Hun er ikke overrasket over at det er blitt så enorme reaksjoner på KrFU-lederens uttalelse. – Evnen og viljen til å prøve å forstå hverandre er dessverre nedadgående. Alt går fortere og vi reagerer på andre uttalelser følelsesmessig, istedenfor rasjonelt, sier Kierulf.

01.11.2025 09:13 — 👍 33 🔁 3 💬 3 📌 0This is VERY revealing, and utterly hypocritical of the EHRC.
The EHRC’s “guidance” explicitly bans free assembly and free association by preventing women-only groups from including trans women, and men-only groups from including trans men, even when those want to be trans-inclusive.
Stille høyere krav til pressen om å dempe emosjonelle reaksjoner ved å selv faktasjekke kontroversielle utsagn og sørge for at de ikke får stå tilsynelatende uimotsagt selv om utsagnene er for lengst påvist å være ren løgn ment for å bruke ytringsfriheten som et våpen mot demokratiet.

Det er toleranseparadokset, og vi vet allerede som samfunn hva løsningen på det paradokset er, fordi å bruke toleranseparadoxet for å prøve å rive ned demokratiet er en vanlig strategi fra de intolerante.

not that i’ve been a cnn fan for a long time or anything, but it’s extremely irritating to know that the slow ratcheting of bigots and fascists and literal nazis into the mainstream means everyone’s just used to this now and this will shake literally no one free from their orbit.

Some times the appropriate response to disagreement is to not legitimize it with argument.
