It's more nuanced than you think. How do you feel about 17 year olds collecting nudes of 14 year olds to gawk at and bully them over?
The supposition that this is “more nuanced than I think” given the particular example you’ve chosen strikes me as quite bizarre. Does “17 year olds collecting nudes of 14 year olds to gawk at and bully them over” not strike you as abusive and/or exploitative? Because it certainly does to me. I think you’ve chosen to interpret my post in an excessively literal manner (i.e only adults abuse or exploit teenagers) rather…

Not sure if it tracks given that the founder himself more or less got ousted from his platform. I don't exactly think the current owners keep the servers up in good faith.
Maybe this lends weight to the idea that the strongest social network is decentralized and not reliant on a single point of ownership/control/failure? :)

This is kind of difficult to do in a vacuum; let's assume those are the only comments that these accounts have posted. "sorry, but no to all of this: males cannot be lesbians" banned for transphobia for misgendering the second poster. Clear cut, get the fuck out if here. No action for first and second poster.

We live in a weird world where a 2% margin in a handful of states counts as a "resounding defeat". Losing the Senate was expected. The House was perhaps less of a toss up than the presidential election itself, but this outcome isn't really a surprise.
She also lost the popular vote by nearly 3M - more than the entire population of 19 different European countries - and he carried more states than his opponent 4 years ago, and more than Bush did in both 2000 & 2004. It is by all conventional and accepted definitions a resounding defeat.

> Household income is up, but individual income is down, by the same source: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MEPAINUSA672N Indeed it's down a bit. The reason I didn't link it is that I think household income matters more than personal income, because it's more relevant to paying for the big expenses like the household itself, but it depends how people share expenses. US household sizes historically never grow thou…
How could individual income shrink if household income increased and the households didn’t increase in size? Someone is lying.

I mean, if you expand the acronym it isn't euphemistic at all! I think it's actually a little too specific. It's trying to exclude "innocent" things like selfies or "simulated" things like drawings, but those are just as illegal in some or all countries.
> It's trying to exclude "innocent" things like selfies or "simulated" things like drawings, but those are just as illegal in some or all countries. Selfies shared between teenagers are innocent! When an adult enters the picture is when it becomes a problem, because yes: it’s abuse and exploitation that we’re objecting to. Unless we think morality is a question of aesthetics, then yes, this also means drawings are no…
