I’m sorry my response came out pedantic, it was not my intention. But I stand by my comment. Asbestos hasn’t been fully banned in USA.
Notice how much work the “new uses” is doing in that sentence.
Some articles on it:
Even though asbestos is known to cause deadly diseases, the U.S. still allows companies to import hundreds of tons of the raw mineral. It is primarily used by two chemical manufacturers, OxyChem and Olin Corp., in the production of chlorine
The EPA has missed some legislative deadlines to enact the ban but says it will finalize the regulation by October.
(Deadline they missed, again)

Well, asbestos are not banned and they are actually pretty toughly regulated. So maybe find a better analogy.
That’s what taxes are for. Tax the sh*t out of cigarettes to account for the increased public health spending. Banning a substance is not the only, neither the best, solution to addiction.
Bookmarked and saved for later. I’m sure I won’t forget to come back before the contest is over.
How about not taking millions as CEO compensation instead of reducing employee wages? Oh no, they need another yacht.
There is no “fair” under capitalism. What I read from this is that the EU has failed its citizens on promoting and helping regional brands to compete on the global market.
When the global market speaks, you can either adapt or do nothing and complain. It’s clear which one is the path the EU is choosing.
If you still want to see NSFW and just block porn communities, the best way is to go to your account blocking settings and block some lemmy domains.
- lemmynsfw.com
- pornlemmy.com
- lemmy.smeargle.fans
- alien.top
- ani.social
This takes care of most of the porn in here without fully removing all NSFW communities and posts.
Thanks for bringing the full article, non-tldr bot.
It seems it wasn’t deleted from this community server, so I retract my comment!
It makes me happy that this community is ok with it, seems someone at lemmy.world didn’t like it and I’m still not used to have deletion messages from servers that I didn’t post in.

LMAO I guess the king should feel free of harassment in case his eminence wants to visit Lemmy in between not doing anything and not doing anything at all.
He’s starting his career as a future Republican presidential candidate early in life. He’s an overachiever 🥹🥹
