What happens if you get women together?
Please don't post unsubstantive comments here. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
If you’re claiming it is without substance you’re simply erasing sex, which is OBVIOUSLY A SUBSTANTIVE CONCEPT.

I have posted and do frequently see "unsubstantive" comments, but somehow the mere connotation of gender is a flag. From a historical perspective, such a question in even its simplest form is entirely valid given the nature of gender roles in societies. Are/were conspiring women's groups more or less feared than men's? I don't know myself, and my comment was sincere in that regard.
Both you and pmontra above are completely misreading thaumasiotes's comments in a knee-jerk reaction. They were simply paraphrasing the intent of the quote from Trajan... If you have an issue with it, bring it up with Trajan.

Sorry but, what does the GDPR have to do with this story about China? China doesn't care what laws Europe writes.

> Women getting together is fine. Not once have groups of women ever been known to rebel against the government.
I agree with the sarcasm. Women are generally less problematic than men but they rebel when it matters. Another example, Rosa Parks.
Action speaker than word!!!!
This has already been happening in India under the current govt Any Anti PM post gets the Whatsapp admin arrested under National Security Act! Of course, there must be some stupid party supporter who probably had to file a case or something. This will be worse as it'll be automatic as China MITM's everything
Did all the dictators get together and decide on the phrase "national security" as the go to when implementing authoritarian laws?

So thaumasiotes was sarcastic here > Women getting together is fine. Not once have groups of women ever been known to rebel against the government. I agree with the sarcasm. Women are generally less problematic than men but they rebel when it matters. Another example, Rosa Parks.
Would Trajan have known this? Of course.
Compare your descriptions of suffragettes' terrorist activities with the research on how effective terrorist campaigns are at even getting their favored policies implemented. (And then, of course, ask yourself whether Trajan could have been aware of a 20th-century women's movement.)

Answering for GP: 1. Education (how to form solid arguments and how to view topics from multiple sides) 2. Plurifomity. By combining people from different social-economic groups. Basically an anti divide and conquer which state sponsored media have driven us towards. 3. Acceptance. Everyone picks their fruits of freedom of speech. Just because the fruits of one are the pains of others does not mean we should throw th…
This is impossibly naive. Large social media companies are highly incentivised to derail any of these utopian efforts.

>> "Any" Anti PM post gets the Whatsapp admin arrested under National Security Act! This is blatantly false. Singling out "Anti-PM" posts and demonizing only BJP (in your latter comment) is clearly biased.
