Denjin@feddit.ukto UK Politics@feddit.uk•New trans activism group Trans Bash Back have smashed windows at Wes Streeting's campaign office71·16 hours agoEmiline Pankhurst and the suffragettes were terrorists, and even called themselves terrorists. They won that fight didn’t they despite plenty of reactionary “someone please think of the taxpayer” cowards.
Denjin@feddit.ukto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some active online communities that are entirely oldschool forums?3·21 hours agoglobally all forum sites would just fold up because the UK has a stupid law
They can just block access from any UK based IP address and carry on as normal. Like many of them are doing already, including some Lemmy instances (although funnily enough, not lemmynsfw).
Yeah, where do you get off making out Stalin was the bad guy? Don’t you know FDR was mean to an old person once?
Whatever the meme is I can’t see it because lemmings.world blocks access to the UK now 🤣
Denjin@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Former magistrate, 81, faces six months in jail for Palestine Action vigilEnglish101·2 days agoIt highlights the hypocrisy at the centre of the UKs policy towards Israel. The hand wringing and pledges to make a hollow gesture if Israel don’t stop murdering babies in 6 months time. All the while using British military equipment and personnel to observe the genocide for Israel and selling Israel the bombs and bullets to do it.
Denjin@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Man carrying home his gardening tools arrested by armed police in ManchesterEnglish1·2 days agoYou missed the point I was making that the systemic problems with the police mean that collectively they are all bastards.
If you can measure them individually and count them they’re plural, if they’re more figurative or impossible (or at least impractical) to count they’re singular:
Age
Sand
Stones
Inches
Denjin@feddit.ukto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats a good Linux distro to dip my toe in with in a laptop running Windows 11? Is there a decent longer form guide to doing it successfully?5·3 days agoIf you use your machine predominantly for gaming, Nobara is a good option. Built by the same people who made Proton (the tool to get Windows games working well on Linux). Comes with everything you need to get going out of the box. Based on Fedora so lots of community support. Comes with either KDE Plasma or GNOME to give you the desktop environment you prefer.
Denjin@feddit.ukto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the 2nd and 3rd dirtiest rivers currently and dont you dare say Ganges?8·3 days agoThere’s no absolute measure for “pollutedness”. How do you compare something filled with plastic waste, something filled with human feces, something contaminated with industrial run off including PFAS?

Some Individual Cops May Actually Be Reasonable And Honest But The Institution Of The Police Is So Corrupted By Vested Interests That There’s No Way To Distinguish Between Those Individuals And The Ones Who Would Actively Cause You Harm Plus They’re Almost All Racist And Mysoginist Anyway So The Distinction Is Largely Academic
Denjin@feddit.ukto United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Wes Streeting: My message to doctors, after five days of strikes? Work with us: if you go to war with us, you’ll loseEnglish22·3 days agoTwo things. Firstly, patients are being harmed because hospitals are being forced to cancel planned operations and procedures, some of which people have been waiting years for.
Secondly, they just went on strike last year and won a huge pay rise, significantly ahead of inflation. The argument put forth by the BMA is based on bad data and misleading statistics.
There are significant structural problems within the NHS that need to be addressed, including some that directly affect the earning power of young doctors. None of which will be fixed if they keep going on strike.
