Of course it shouldn’t be limited. Sometimes it feels like they are shoving women in the direction of being more like men. Which I find unnecessary.

Just let people be who they are

It sometimes feels fabricated

Sorry for the autism :)

Why is the bottom right picture done like that, it looks like these feminists just want to be more like men.

Why am I saying this? Because that position of the arm is there to show a bulging contracted bicep. Women have a lot less muscle there, so it doesn’t make sense.

Wouldn’t feminism be better when striving for things that women are naturally better at than men.

We don’t need to do the same stuff, everyone can do what they want.

But don’t make a fish climb a tree. Everyone should cultivate their own strengths and learn their own weaknesses.

And for women, being physically strong will usually be less attainable. Obviously there are exceptions. When I was 65 kg I could deadlift 140 kg, so a lot of muscle isn’t actually needed for strength, but still you get what I’m saying.

This type of stuff, as I was growing up, made me actually believe men and women were the same.

After years of talking extensively to men and women, I can assure you that’s not the case.

There should be no stereotyping, but we are indeed different and do not need to be the same.

/End autistic rant

I’m pumping into them European stocks like no tomorrow

Buy McDonald’s stock, fire the CEO and hire someone cheap.

Why do they stay in USA then. There are plenty of countries where one can earn a better net worth.

USA is an immigrant country. Non of you are natives. Do what your ancestors did. Leave.

What’s the value of your parents their house and how many siblings do you have.

You’re pretty fucked being American in that situation.

Sucks for immigrants. I’m born rich

Median net wealth per adult in Belgium is 250k euros. It’s because the housing stock is owned by families living in them. Their kids inherit that.

“Sucks for immigrants” isn’t even true. Social mobility is great here. Free education for them. But buying a house will indeed be very expensive for them. They have to pay for the current day economy. The economy that is attractive to immigrants.

Housing will always be expensive in a good economy.

Look at Singapore, it’s all owned by the country, and it’s expensive as hell.

Never been in USA, but working at McDonald’s here in Belgium while living at your parents, with 2000 euros net from a minimum wage job… Yeah after a year you can buy the house that I showed.

I’m sure you can work while living with your parents.

Having the 25k euros is only step one. Afterwards you need to build up capital for passive income when you are in Indonesia.

The cost of living is very low. the median net worth in Indonesia is 5000 euros. So with your starting capital, you’ll be ahead of the curve.

With your English, you have some niches you can do. Like working for English speaking companies. Local or from your computer.

most people that do this, go to Bali. But if you want cheaper areas, the place I showed is also do-able.

Bali is popular because more people there speak English. For Americans, the Philippines is popular because English is an official language.

My wife’s indonesian so if she wants to, we’ll go there.

likely not, because I prefer Belgium. But I’m also not complaining about the high housing prices here in Belgium. I know why they are high. It’s because people want to live here.

Same reason why housing is more expensive in Bali… People want to live there.

You can still buy a house by working at McDonald’s. All you need to do is leaving your country. Here’s a nice house in Tanjung Pinang, Bintan, Indonesia.

25000 euros.

RSF was just an example to show that such a ranking exists. Removing conflict of interest and the ability to censor will be what’s needed in order to have real unguided public opinion.

That’s difficult to achieve.

The major thing to think about are things like CP, obviously that needs to be removed from existence.

So there’s positives to control, but nobody does anything for free.

Like here at Lemmy, I assume an instance creator of a popular instance will be able to be bought by companies or politicians.

Like Musk just bought twitter, lots of newspaper companies are owned by oligarchs. Other sources of news are owned by governments.

There’s always a conflict of interest.

It’s difficult to get away from.

With the market cap of their SOE’s, they have a broader impact on their economy. Sure, china is the most socialist relevant country in the world as of now.

Censorship can be ranked like anything else can.

https://rsf.org/en/index like they are trying to do.

Sent you a message after clicking on your username on the post I got banned on, just to see if it reaches you.

I know Belgium isn’t socialist, we’re rather social democratic.

There’s also market socialism which doesn’t require public ownership, just that the workers own the company. Something like Huawei.

But the end result. We have a median net wealth of 250k euros per adult. I’m quite happy about that.

We have some nationalised stuff. Our commuting train company, post company, Bank and insurance, bus transport, télécommunications company. Infrabel.

The government plays a major role in our lives but they are still liberal.

They just tax and transfer. 45% of the GDP is tax revenue. Belgians are doing just fine.

Owning key industries is useful, like the french with their nuclear reactors. But you as employee it’s better to have private options as well when it comes to employment.

Like in Cuba they have 1 employer. The government. Sure, the doctors get paid the most in the country, but still they flee to other Latin American countries so that they can fund their family in a luxurious housing unit in Havana.

This is because there’s more competition to buy the doctors their services in those other Spanish speaking countries in the Americas.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t dislike socialist economic stuff, if it’s used properly.

I despise the censorship.

With the last ban, I messaged 3 people and none of them responded even though we were having quite some conversations in the thread. So I assume it doesn’t reach. Lemme try again.

@Cowbee@lemme.ml so bruv, what were you saying? I got banned from that thread over there.

What is not fair? I just said kind seeks kind, you don’t need people that aren’t your kind. It’s an easy way to figure out who isn’t your kind. The leak, is a great way to communicate.

As OP said, he found quite some more people that wanted to join.

Me and my buddy have the nuke thing going. Mutually assured destruction 😎

It’s a good thing. Kind seeks kind. Don’t be afraid to be who you are.

3, it’s the easiest to activate and handle

Why do you think I hate China lol. What I’m doing is antagonising a marxist leninist in order to get banned from tankie subs.

China’s pretty great. I like Europe more though. Not a fan of america.

Do you live in Iran? You said “my home country” instead of “my country” so I assumed you’re not living there currently.

Weibo is better than rednote, thanks for that. Saw someone talk about the Ukraine-Russian war, so politics are present.

Voting in favour of forcing other women to wear clothes they don’t want to wear. Aye, whatever.

Some VPNs do work in China, otherwise the subreddit China_irl wouldn’t exist.

Weibo/rednote have a nice translate feature that Anglosphere apps do not have.

You can go to the indonesian subreddit and you’ll see them all speak Bahasa Indonesian. Reddit is banned in Indonesia. They still go there with VPN.

Chinese government is richer, they went after the VPNs.

Chinese citizens cannot be here, they cannot form a Lemmy instance where they speak mandarin to eachother.

Social media has to accept Chinese laws, which includes moderation by the government. They are only allowed to have political opinions that align with those in power.

Iran and America hate eachother. Completely different culture, etc.

My friend was born in Iran, his family did all the effort to get into Belgium. He’d rather be shot dead than to live in Iran. But he’s also a bit loco. Saying he would nuke Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan if he had the chance. Edit:forgot his favourite nuke destination which is india

But that’s just one guy. Sorry, had to include cuz random.

What most people would dislike about Iran would be the dress code. Girls protesting it and being arrested. For some reason never to be heard from again.

Just things that I would not want my wife or future daughter to live in.

My wife came from a Muslim dominated country, would be told to wear a hijab while she’s not even religious.

She likes that she can wear whatever she wants in Belgium.

And now… Would I be allowed to say things like this in Iran, or would it be removed by their government employees? I have no idea about Iran.

I just know that us Belgians are allowed to shit talk our government as if it’s a national sport.

Go to Belgium2 subreddit, everything is spoken in Dutch. Most of it is complaining about the government.
