Let’s set the sentence for executing an innocent man to, death.
The first barrier to the death penalty is to make sure verdicts are right 100% of the time.
After that you can begin the debate about **whether it’s moral at all.

Proportional representation does give a minority voice to these people.
It’s the cost of fairness and it is useful to demonstrate minority views are disregarded for no reason other than because they’re the minority.
How’s that FPTP election going? Nice and stable, no extremists likely to overthrow democracy or anything?
I’m sorry, I started joking because you weren’t being serious either.
Wait, you were being serious?
Well I’ve got a solution for you!
Just insert this adapter into the 3.5mm jack and it will be blocked for you. It’ll no longer be wasted space because this adapter is a useful place to store several grains of rice for a snack.
Unfortunately you do lose a feature as a result of using this adapter, it will stop one of the speakers from working and degrade your audio quality.
But you shouldn’t complain about anything removing a feature, or degrading your audio quality. You’ve got a new feature of being able to store rice!
You can even buy special fairphone sustainable rice from us. With only a small 300% mark up but an incredible 80% of the sustainability of already available rice. It comes in green!
The “demographic” of human being who doesn’t want to wreck the planet if Fairphone’s target.
If Fairphone is not trying to be universal anymore you should see that as a problem. So should every fairphone customer.
I’ll buy a more sustainable phone than the fairphone when my phone loses support in 2027. I’ll encourage everyone to buy a more sustainable product today.
I’d much prefer a 3.5mm jack
There’s a Russian Pravda and a Ukrainian Pravda.
Both extremely partisan. Neither what I’d call reliable sources of news but you’ve probably seen propaganda from both.
Of course the Ukrainian Pravda has literally been able to print facts, unguilded, and they’ve matched what they would say as propaganda anyway so it’s appeared like a reputable news source recently.
That’s what happens when Russia genuinely does things like use chemical weapons (cs gas) banned by the Geneva convention.
(For those wondering, even though cs gas is used in riots the convention bans all gas based weapons as they target indiscriminately and could easily be mistaken for nerve agents by either side. Leading to either accidental use of nerve agents or accidental retaliation with something similarly destructive)
Or when the Russians directly hit a nuclear reactor 3 times.
Meanwhile the Russian Pravda has to manufacture its propaganda, like claiming an Islamic State attack which Islamic State issued video evidence of and claimed was somehow Ukrainian.
It’s a problem I recognise but in my opinion those who have grown up in illegal settlements have to be the ones to move.
I do blame their parents. Their parents have knowingly broken international law and it is essentially their fault their children are legally homeless.
This is where I have sympathy for those who will genuinely experience displacement when illegal settlements are handed back, but there was a choice made by those children’s parents to put them in that situation.
Compare that with the families forcibly removed from the land in the first place with no agency or choice.
I can see that there are those who are the victim of the oppression and aggression of Zionists because they were forced to leave.
There are those who may end up facing trauma because they were forced to move there.
There are victims on both sides, the important thing is not allowing those who have perpetrated harm to continue to do so.
The illegal settlements must be returned, those who have invaded will have caused harm to their own community and will face the consequences for that.
I hope for some reciprocity from both sides like in Ireland where there is not a continuous seeking for justice and further consequences. But the initial acts of oppression and theft must be undone.
There was a war in 1967. The occupation since has been illegal.
The 1967 war itself was justified because of the actions of guerillas, not state actors. Israel was the aggressor and preemptively struck against other nations.
Israel defended itself against threats. That was justified.
But Israel then went on to punish ordinary people and civilians. It’s a pattern of behaviour that has continued since 1967. Highlight the actions of terrorists, take from the civilians. Blockade the civilians, starve the civilians. Limit food, water, medicine, other supplies.
There have been times where Israel has allowed some normalcy in the 90s. But they’ve maintained a blockade and occupation. They’ve maintained an oppression.
All justified mostly by the actions of terrorists and external states. Not the people they’ve been persecuting.
Hamas are just the latest group. Israel cannot continue to punish civilians because of the actions of terrorists.
Israel definitely want evacuated Palestinians to give up on returning home and integrate into other countries.
Forcing Palestinians to do this is one of the definitions of genocide.
If someone is suggesting that refugees become citizens of other countries of other countries automatically then that’s actually enabling a genocide.
This is the problem with looking at solutions on the small scale when the problem is large scale.
Every individual in those refugee camps would likely have a better life if they “integrated” into another country. It’s easy to say those people should get a better life.
But “integrating” into another country is also the language used to suggest the abandonment of culture and claim to their former home.
They are refugees because their homes have been under constant blockade or attack for decades. It’s time to give them their homes back.
If you want a market solution to correct this, it should cost more money to submit frivolous patents.
Or simply rate limit the number of parents a company can submit if they have a lot of failed applications.
Sorry, you’ve wasted our time with 3 failed applications this month, no more applications until next month.
Rights framed in a constitution are important.
The responsibility of the government is to uphold law and the rights that law protects.
But a legislator sets the law, so without rights being part of a constitution, the government gets no responsibility from a constitution.
The most important stuff is all pertaining to elections. How the government gets elected being in the constitution stops the government changing that before an election.
Then rights directly effecting elections. Speech, protest, anti-discrimination.
Can’t have those changed before the ballot.
Everything else can and should be part of a separate bill or constitution of rights.
Framework 13 has a fingerprint reader in the power button.
They wish to disrupt trade. And disrupt the narrative of the war.
Evidence: they’re disrupting trade. We’re talking about this.
My entire point is that pollution and article is irrelevant.
No side is perfect but there’s one side who have ultimately orchestrated that part of the world to the place it’s in now.
The US put the extremists in charge in Iran because of the Red scare.
The US put the extremists in charge in Saudi Arabia for the oil supply.
The US has supported Israel’s stance against any non-jew in creating an apartheid state.
The US has given weapons to several sides.
The US has directly bombed several countries.
All while not supporting the Arab spring and grass roots push for democracy.
“Not perfect” doesn’t cut it. The US is aggressively colonialist, just as the British were before them.
You stating what I apparently believe is one of the red flags for someone not engaging in critical thinking.
I’ve told you I don’t believe that, if you still believe I do you’re trying to construct an argument against the evidence.
I don’t believe that at all.
I stated that as an absurdist position in comparison to the absurdist position of complaining about an oil slick in a war.
The Houthis are trying to stop moving polluting ships through those waters. Are you blaming the ship or the ones trying to stop the ship?
This isn’t about pollution or the environment, everyone knows that.
Trying to shoehorn environmentalism as a justification to keep bombing Yemen is a hilarious mental leap into the abyss.
Start by asking “the coalition” to clear up the depleted uranium they leave lying around the place in the middle east.
Even if no one does anything, the first book was published 40 years ago. It won’t leave copyright for another 62 years.
Copyright is too long.
I second this. Draw a cat!
It’s based on Hamlet. So Shakespeare, not the bible.
