All lives should be treated as equals. "Social equity" is not equality. Since when is charity dignifying for the recipient?
Ben Shapiro has terrible opinions about minorities and the LGBT
Shapiro has stated multiple times that he would rather a child have two gay parents over being an orphan. I won't deny that some of his takes are a bit on the theocratic side. But he isn't theocratic, he recognizes that while his religious beliefs do influence his perspectives, not everyone should be coerced to live the way which he chooses to live.
He is not a good person
Clearly, in an echo chamber of leftys and libs, my opinion on Shapiro will not be recognized as the general consensus. However, it's best to keep a perspective that is open minded when listening to opinions with which you might disagree, instead of just attempting to nullify everything that is said simply because you dislike a particular person.
And he is not quick witted.
It is quite clear that many people recognize him as a well spoken and worthy debate opponent. While you are certainly entitled to your opinion, that opinion is not commonly recognized, as many people seek debates with him.
His videos are always so random but somehow so entertaining and peaceful no matter what completely random thing he decides to talk about. My man could explain the mechanical differences between industrial farming equipment or something and I’d eat that shit up 100% without any questions.
The creator of tildes.net is a former Reddit backend developer, and believes this behavior is likely due to how Reddit caching works (or doesn't work), rather than an intentional subversion of user intent:
Yes, this is almost certainly a technical issue. The way reddit caches things probably isn't the standard way you're thinking of, like a short-term cache that expires and refreshes itself. There are multiple layers of "cached" listings and items for almost everything, and a lot of these caches are actually data that's stored permanently and kept up to date individually.
For example, when you view your comments page, Reddit uses a cached (permanent) list of which comments are in that page. There is a separate list stored for each sorting method. For example, maybe you'd have something like this with some made-up comment IDs:
Deimos's comments by new: 948, 238, 153
Deimos's comments by hot: 238, 153, 948
Deimos's comments by controversial: 153, 238, 948
If I post a new comment, it will go through each list and add the new ID in the right spot (for example, in the "new" list it always just goes at the start). If I delete a comment, it goes through every list, and removes the ID if it can find it in there.
One of the problems with this system (which is probably what's causing @phedre's issues, and affecting many other people trying to delete their whole history) is that all of these listings are capped at 1000 items. If you already have more than 1000 comments and you post a new one, the 1000th comment currently in the new list gets "pushed off the end". The comment still exists, but you won't be able to see it by looking through your comments page, because it's no longer in that listing.
Deleting comments also doesn't cause previously "pushed off" ones to get re-added. If you have 5000 comments, your listing will only include 1000 of them. If you delete 50 of the ones in the listing, your listing now has 950 comments in it. If you delete all 1000 from the listing, your comments page will appear empty, but you actually still have 4000 comments that will be visible in the comments pages they were posted in.
And this is only one aspect of it. There are also multiple other places and ways that comments are cached—comment trees are cached (order and nesting of comments on a comments page, for all the different sorting methods), rendered HTML versions of comments are cached, API data is probably cached, and so on.
All of these issues are probably just some combination of all of your posts being difficult to find and access due to the listing limits or certain cached representations of posts not being cleared or updated properly.
Yup. I'm waiting for Reddit to come back with my GDPR data request (which has a time limit of 30 days, after which they can tell their excuses to extend it by another 30 days I believe), and assuming they have not reversed the API decision I'm ordering them to delete it all afterwards. And they even now have a handy list, the one they just gave me, of everything they have to purge - if they didn't, it wouldn't be on that list in the first place :)
That's what's so awful about this. Prices were announced May 31st, so for a CCPA request that was done that very instant, they can delay until mid July, when the API changes will make it much more difficult to delete your data, and there's no recourse.
Even for GDPR, maybe you'd get it the day before, for the shorter 30 day limit. But a day of a few hours could easily mean you've gone past and API is also a problem for you.
I would hope that someone reaching out to press from ModCoord would pass these concerns on to journalists. A persistent journalist can uncover the extent of compliance to the GDPR and CCPA through proper questions. "Have you seen an increase in GDPR/CCPA requests wince the controversy started? What percent of those have you completed? What about reports that users are unable to delete their data?" etc. (only better because I'm not a journalist and probably oversimplifying).
Reddit stopped answering requests for comment from objective journalists.
People just need to start filling complains with their Data Protection Authority. Then the mainstream media will be forced to cover the stories to get the clicks.
Still waiting for the GDPR request i made at the start of this shitshow, will be funny to witness the mass GDPR deletion requests of accounts at the start of July
Based on this, I'd say that Reddit fully deserves to be banned in Europe and California, and fined into potential bankruptcy. Having deeply flawed technology that prevents them from ever being in compliance of a very serious law is no excuse.
Not necessarily, although Reddit can definitely choose to play it that way.
A lot of systems made in the pre-GDPR era (which is most of them) were not designed with the capability to decouple and erase content at a moment’s notice.
Btw incompetence won’t hold up as a valid defence for violating GDPR. At most it can give them some stalling room.
So basically the US government is a gigantic Trump - rising up in self-righteous fury at the very idea that anyone might dare to charge them for the crimes they’ve brazenly committed.
“I don’t like the name Mountain View high school. Its too generic”
Really ma’am? So you’re rather have it named after a divisive traitorous man that fought to enslave a portion of the people that are required to attend that high school? To you generic is too offensive, but Stonewall Jackson High isn’t? Careful, your racism is showing.
Let them leave. They aren’t worth the trouble at this point. They barely grow any ag, they don’t provide much to the economy, and they have the highest levels of incarceration by multiples and the worst quality of education. The US would be closer to Sweden in most metrics if we got rid of the south.
That's not the United States exploiting them. It's their employers exploiting them and them not unionizing because they've been brainwashed into thinking unions are bad.
While we should be doing more to protect and support unionization, when results are different based on where you are, those people need to take some responsibility. I know some of the conservative states have it tough, but they operate under the same federal laws that Michigan does for autoworkers.
The laws are the same, the context is different. It’s one thing to unionize of you live in state with job options. It’s another when the one factory employs the entire town.
That isn’t to say they aren’t somewhat responsible. Just that we can’t expect the same performance given that disability.
How do you not think that the government isn’t the capitalist state? The one who regulates commerce among capitalists, and those rules get put in by input from the collective capitalists. They are one and the same.
