Not really. Ever notice how every demographic poll asks you what race you are, then asks again if you are Hispanic?

That’s because a large number of Hispanics identify as white, and you have to ask twice if you actually want to know how many Hispanics answered your poll.

Unsurprisingly, many are white supremacists, and actual white people will exploit that when convenient.

qwen-image-edit is a free download, and using it would have been an appropriate rebuke to Altman’s stupid take. Whoever made this meme is a chump.

I know this is rich given that I’m on Lemmy, but there shouldn’t be a replacement for Reddit. Social media is harmful to it’s users. Corporate social media is the worst, but the alternatives, all of them, are still quite terrible for your mental health.

The replacement to Reddit is touching grass.

I’m not asking you to support Pike. I’m asking you to condemn torture and demand accountability from the government.

It’s important to know who your enemies are. Not caring about government -inflicted suffering is worth noting. I would never trust someone like you IRL.

So you admit she was tortured, but don’t think she deserves any amount of restitution for having her constitutional rights violated. There’s only one way to read this: you don’t care if her constitutional rights were violated, and are happy to use her crimes as justification for it.

She already waived somebody else’s rights completely away.

This is the exact same argument the Trump admin has used to deny immigrants due process before deportation. You talk like a fucking fascist.

Yes, the meme is slop, but of OP made it using a local model it would be pretty based.

I do find slop memes to be annoying, but at least slop artists don’t constantly spam me with the same 5 images repeatedly.

If making your own memes is what you prefer, do that instead of posting the same unattributed images over and over again. It feels like y’all are working against what you actually want, which is authentic OC.

That’s great and all, but the reality is that she was neither jailed for life or executed, she was tortured, and she deserves restitution because, despite her conviction, she still has constitutional rights.

You keep trying to handwave her rights away with appeals to disgust. I don’t give a shit about whatever emotional reaction details of the original crime brings you. If you don’t respect the constitutional protection against torture, you’re deeply in the wrong.

Pike may have perpetrated a crime, but she is also a victim of state abuse. The former doesn’t invalidate the latter.

Well, I don’t like it when people sanewash billionaire greed, and you defended his logic around “utilization” as if it were a good point.

This doesn’t matter. You are just too emotionally fixated on the details of the crime to have a good faith conversation about the constitutional implications of state sanctioned torture.

Torture is explicitly forbidden by the Constitution. You cannot use it to punish some, and if you do, that person deserves restitution, prior crimes notwithstanding.

You said “cheaper executions”. That only means one thing: Expediting the timeline and getting rid of appeals.

I understand that you didn’t say that explicitly, but I didn’t put words in your mouth. You called for expediting the timeline and getting rid of appeals by saying “cheaper executions”, because that’s how you cut costs on executions.

How is this a rebuttal? It sounds like he definitely said what people claim he said. The only issue here is putting a paraphrased statement in quotes, but I can forgive that since the message didn’t change.

So the husband gets one life sentence for doing it, and the wife gets seven life sentences for allowing it?

They both deserve life in prison, but why did the actual perpetrator get a lesser sentence?

It’s perfectly acceptable to just admit that the image you shared didn’t support your argument. This childish “prove me wrong” shit just makes you look like a troll.

So expedite the process and eliminate the appeals process and make the whole thing an even bigger human rights atrocity?

The solution is to not kill people. This isn’t a hard concept for mentally healthy people without bloodlust.

If suffering is a part of what you want from the justice system, you and I are enemies.

I’m happy to answer your question, but I don’t think I understand what you’re asking me. Can you clarify?

Nothing excuses her crimes, but being tortured should absolutely excuse her conviction.

That’s an awful comparison.

It’s like email.

You can have a gmail.com address, and send and receive emails between yahoo.com and hotmail.com addresses without issues. Nobody really cares which provider you chose, and if you really want to, you can register your own domain and host email yourself.

If this doesn’t land, then the person you’re talking to probably has never used a computer.
