South Africa filed an 84 page detailed account of the genocide in the ICJ. Citing sources. The vast majority of scholars of genocide agree it is a genocide. It’s not hard unless you are a Hasbara-bot (sorry to call you out my robot friend). Head of back to your programmers at AIPAC. Maybe twitter is more to your liking? In any case, y’all infect every other corner of the media. Get of the fediverse.
Axchuatlly, one of the miracles for mother Theresa’s canonization was that someone took a really nice picture inside of one of her houses of pain and suffering
William Rehnquist had a speaker installed in his private bathroom and the last couple of years on the court, he would suddenly disappear from the bench during oral arguments, but never worry, he could still hear them arguing on his special toilet speaker before making decisions that would affect hundreds of millions of people.
After the most recent revelations, Thomas’s defenders have gone conspicuously silent. Organs like National Review and conservative legal apparatchik Ed Whelan, who loudly dismissed evidence of wrongdoing by Thomas, have had nothing to say about Thomas’s many billionaire patrons....
There is some delicious irony in 100+ Thomas clerks signing an opinion that ignores the actual issue, reaches a pre-determined conclusion based on their preexisting support for the guy, and gives no logical or objective reason why you should agree.

I’m worried women with traumatic pasts are afraid of Tb0n3 using the internet, so I think we should ban Tb0n3 from using the internet to make these unnamed women feel less afraid. In fact, we take away all of Tb0n3’s access to any electronic devices while we figure this out. We have to do it to keep women safe.
I already said others might not feel safe if you were allowed to use electronics, yet here you are again, completely insisting on using this site despite the harm you may cause. We should probably get law enforcement involved at this point, just so these people I imagined might be afraid can be safe. They can forcibly take away your computer and phone while the rest of us figure this out. Sure, you think there is a massive difference, but that is just something someone dangerous like you would say to trick them. More proof that you need to remain banned from participation.
Bigoted against LGBT and now slurs against disabled people. It didn’t take much for your red armband to start showing, did it? I’d hate to hear what you think about Jews.
Doubling down on the hate speech I see. Is this your programming glitching? I’ve heard AI has trouble when the conversation goes more than a couple of lines, but I didn’t know it went into full on KKK mode. At least, I hope you are AI, given how easy it was to get you to show some true hateful colors.
I didn’t call you racist. So far your bigotry has been anti-trans and anti-disability. I fear you may be antisemitic too, since that is sort of the historic formula that people like talking about so much. And now you use anti-trans slurs on top of your anti-disable slurs. If it sounds like a bigot. But this is all a waste of time. Didn’t we already establish that women are uncomfortable sharing the internet with you and, therefore, you should not be allowed here anymore? Why are you still posting all of your vile hate?
I am just trying to protect fearful women from you, including your hate filled, slur-ridden speech. And if you want me to call you a racist too, OK, you are racist too. All the more reason for all of your devices to be kept away from you, for the protection of all those women of course. You can deny your Klan status all you like, but when you parrot alt-right talking points, and double down on slurs (also, they taught us to stop using r****d like 30 years ago, what chatbot planet do you live on where that’s OK?), we surely won’t take your word for it. Again, you don’t understand that people are really afraid of you, so it is better to err on the side of caution and protect everyone from you. You may not feel like you are dangerous, but aren’t you the worst person to judge your potential danger to others? Again, I am just here to protect women and apparently the mentally disabled and probably the Jews from you, so please stay off the internet until the rest of us decide you are not a threat. It will just be a few decades, surely you don’t mind.

Watch a video tour of the tourist sites of London. Or look what is in the imperial museum. Or the Victoria and Albert museum. The looted wealth of of their genocidal empire is still celebrated as a national treasure. India still has not recovered from British occupation, which only officially ended 75 years ago. And that’s like 20% of the entire current human population.
I mean, there are still some pretty massive structural issues in society at large against these groups even though women in some workplaces are having a better time.
The idea is that this would be the software used to run the actual transfer of shares traded on the exchanges rather than what is used today which is just closed ledger entries on books of all the participants. But the current manual process takes multiple days to settle each transaction and this would be instantaneous, and in one transparent distributed ledger.
In this case, the NFT would only be issued by the actual issuing company or its agent. This is how it works today but instead of NFTs it is paper certificates or, worse, a ledger entry why the issuing agent that is then confirmed with the centralized shared deposit uprise which actually owns most of the real shares. In most cases, especially in the trading platforms where you can execute free trades, you are just a beneficial owner and not an actual owner of the underlying security. With an NFT there would be no need for beneficial ownership at all anymore. It’s not the only way to do it, it’s just a utility like the others you mentioned, but it is a legitimate use case.
I really appreciate that. As part of my unredditing process and knowing we are trying to make this place better than what Reddit became, I really want to give civility and open back and forth as much of a chance of catching on as possible. NFTs ate something that have been eaten up by this overwhelming hype and anti-hype machine. I think, like most software solutions, that they will find a good niche in appropriate systems and, like most things, once they are implemented, most people won’t even realize they are using it.
