Dupree878@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•An Iraqi man who carried out several Quran burnings in Sweden has been killedEnglish41·5 months agoInciting hate isn’t a crime. It’s free speech. He’s not persecuting anyone, just protesting against the religious who want to persecute others by banning people from blasphemy.
If I could I’d have ever parebt who takes a kid to a religious service arrested for child abuse. That’s persecution.

I said this same thing on another thread regarding why Jan 6 was just a protest and not a violent attack or insurrection or coup and got downvoted to hell.

Just something to think about when it comes to the influence social media has on society
TikTok has already transformed how Americans communicate, influencing language and behavior in ways that may have broader implications. The Chinese government, known for using censorship and language control to maintain social order and suppress dissent, leverages euphemistic language as a tool for manipulating public opinion and silencing critical discourse.
Phrases like “unalive” for suicide or “grape” for rape dilute the meaning and impact of language, making it easier for powerful entities to control narratives and obscure uncomfortable truths. This process, known as “language laundering” or “semantic bleaching,” strips words of their emotional weight and original meaning, making it harder to address sensitive or urgent issues effectively.
This trend has extended beyond language to visuals, with people obscuring letters or censoring words in pictures and posts—using terms like “s**cide” or “r*pe.” While this may help users navigate algorithms designed to suppress certain keywords, it completely erodes the clarity and impact of critical conversations.
The normalization of this behavior on TikTok has permeated Facebook, Reddit, Instagram, and other social media platforms, spreading a culture of diluted language and indirect communication. These practices hinder meaningful discourse, desensitize users to serious issues, and ultimately make it more challenging to engage with sensitive topics in a direct and effective manner. Recognizing and resisting this shift is essential to preserving the integrity of public discussions and fostering authentic engagement.
Violence does something. It eliminates enemy combatants or resources. A protest doesn’t do shit

Clutch your pearls harder. Violence would have made a difference and mattered. This wasn’t shit and the only casualty was that woman killed by the cop because she didn’t shoot him first.
Thank you for saying it was a protest and not a coup or insurrection
100% yes. Anyone guarding that building is an agent of the government, as are cops.
And you’re just a bootlicker?
I don’t understand: why must it be eInk? I know glass displays aren’t the best because of reflection but an iPad gets super bright and takes a keyboard. You can easily find a used one for $100-150
