There was a really good article on this and unfortunately I can't find it now to share

But the gist was that Titan exploited a bunch of loopholes, among other things. The paying customers on the sub were in fact 'marine researchers' who coincidently made a donation, and things like that

Some of the people who were at one point involved but left due to safety concerns raised the issue with OSHA (? - or whoever the more specific body was) who repeatedly failed to investigate or take any action

So for me, whether or not they are able to charge the company, the industry regulators and government bodies overseeing them need to face some questions and judgements too (though it would take a more knowledgeable person than me to know what exactly that looks like)

'There's no point voting against Hitler right now because the opposition is right leaning and may one day grow into Hitler'

It's really important to know the details because it's the details that allow us to parse and challenge injustice effectively.

Knowing the context of Felony Murder and how it applies to this sentencing is not saying 'this is fine then, no worries'. Rather, it means we can actually talk about the systematic issues in the legal system that enable things like this.

The comment you replied to was in no way 'word salad' or 'copaganda', it was context.

He was actually sentenced to Death, but California abolished the death penalty before he was executed

It's just copypasta, yknow. It's a meme

I don't know why you are using in person community praxis as a refutation of an online space being toxic

In the UK, you can't decide whether to 'press charges' or not, the decision is the CPS's.

But in practice, saying you aren't interested in pursuing a conviction often ends it, because:

1 - the prosecution must be 'in the public good' which is undermined if the victim isn't interested

2 - a lot of the time the testimony and cooperation of the victim is key to the prosecution case

3 - the system is horribly underfunded so if they can justify dropping it they will

I read in the paper today that a bankruptcy court is going to take 40% of Katie Price's OnlyFans income

When i saw this headline my brain skipped to Rudy Giuliani's OnlyFans income

Has Rudy Giuliani considered OnlyFans?

In the UK you start school at 4

I'd like to recommend The Trojan Horse Affair. Its a limited series and a few years old now, but a a really interesting listen

Its about the scandal in the UK in 2013, where an anonymous letter 'exposed' an Islamist conspiracy in Birmingham schools to radicalise children.

The investigation in the podcast is helmed by two people; a rookie journalism grad who is muslim, and an experienced white journalist. The contrast in perspectives and emotion between them adds to it

And yeah it'll probably make you angry, and for those not in the UK it might key you in a bit on the tensions that do and don't exist with British Muslims, how they're viewed and treated by lots of parties here (including the Government)

Hey man, he had bone spurs, you ableist (/s)

“Yes, I lost this election, but I’m young, beautiful, and rich as f**k,” she concluded. She lost her job at Purina dog food over her extreme rhetoric and her campaign was unable to purchase ads.

She came 6th. Its funny, but I think she was never a real candidate and hasn't learned anything
