Exactly, these numbers always sound impressive but 10 years and 20 appeals later they haven’t paid 5% of the original fine…

While I agree that it’s lost a lot of its power. Social pressure is still good at making people uncomfortable in the current setting. And can pressure them into leaving or avoiding that situation in the future.

It is a attempt to reduce staff and save money. On every level it will delay response time and increase risk to those calling.

Addictions are complicated and not easily “fixed” in many cases. That leaves permanently in jail or a job they can make money at while not driving.

It should be noted in many states you can get a DWI on a bike or scooter…

It should be it illustrate the craziness of .ml mods. Good Bye!

No you don’t, you have no intention of discussing good faith. And you provided zero proof yourself. You are a typical propaganda agent. Heck your lies are proof enough. Good bye

Every Tankie I’ve run into on .ml has blindly supported all three, banned me for even mentioning things like the square, genocide, Russia being a dictatorship, China “social report card”… The list goes on and and they are consistently as cultist as MAGA lovers in the US.

So forgive me if having been on Lemmy for several years now. I call complete bullshit on your statement.

Oh and seeing the rest of the statement, your attempt to down play the square massacre and split hairs about where and how many were killed. You are absolutely a Tankie and as bad as any MAGA cultist. Take your bullshit propaganda back to .ml

Says the guy responding with “ROFL” to every comment that goes against their propaganda in this thread… You’ve posted in this thread like 30 times and only like 2 posts weren’t a variation of “ROFL” . Real productive posting buddy.

Oh the irony, you say they are wrong and it’s the opposite. Then proceed to prove them right in the rest of your response. It’s just too perfect lol

If Tankies were anything like you’re trying to portray them. Then they wouldn’t blindly support Russia, China, North Korea which are dictatorships. They wouldn’t ban anyone who mentions tiananmen square or the China and Russian genocides…

I mean who actually believes the working class in China (which doesn’t own anything much less the means of production) supports getting “scored” for their social standing… Lol

Yeah same thing in the US with MAGA, mob mentality takes over and it becomes self feeding.

It is how they are taught/programed, when one false argument fails they move down to the level. Depending how good they are, destroy 2-3 levels of false shit and they end up just name calling.

Just look at this thread all the .ml accounts are name calling at this point.

I was like wtf is this guy smoking then oh their .ml

Lol what?

Great starting point for wasting time maybe.

Let me waste 5 minutes reading slop than another 20 min tying to figure out if its a hallucination or just not accurate. 25 minutes that could have been reading a credible accurate source…

Not the ones I know, but I don’t know anyone using them for content creation either, they may replace them more often.

Macs just work and the type to buy them aren’t going to replace them until they stop.

Plus most Mac users don’t do anything stressful, browsing and streaming which even most 15 year old machines will do fine at this point.

I always finding amusing every single one of the “US sucks, my country is better” accounts NEVER seems to mention their own country… hmm wonder why that is :)

Off such a sad take. Hint: “better” doesn’t mean correct or accurate.

I think you need to review your history. Not what you learned in high school.
