    Still illegal in many places in the US. I just happen to live in a state that is legal.

    Since I’m close to a state border, I only need to drive about 20 minutes to be somewhere it’s illegal again.

    And if you live in an “at will” state, they can just fire you even if it’s legal.

    Sidenote: “at will” employment is the biggest sack of bullshit that employers convinced people is totally normal.

    Im hopeful that the US, EU, and UK legalize it within the next few years. I’m realistic about the chances, I know how the older generations of politicians are, but I still cross my fingers.

    Every time I get downvoted, I move an inch closer to the exit door of this community.

    Lol OK bye.

    Nobody gives a shit and complaining about down votes is the quickest way to get them.

    Guess what! Outside of a few custom instances that for some reason want to be reddit, the fediverse doesn’t track your total karma.

    Unless you’re going back to keep track of your comments for some weird reason, the only time you see a down voted comment is when you get replies.

    I could have hundreds of net down votes by now, but I don’t know because luckily my instance doesn’t track votes.

    The point is, it’s a little number next to an arrow. Who gives a shit.

    You know, as much as I hate it… “you know it when you see I but hard to definet” really is accurate.

    There’s plenty of things that aren’t outright illegal that are completely inappropriate around children.

    And if there are things that are context specific, it gets a lot harder to make a computer recognize a problem.

    Audio cues are easy to scan for and computers are pretty good at recognizing sounds, especially in regards to copyright detection (even if their interpretation of “fair use” clause is still fucked 6 ways)

    Video is a lot harder unless the computer is trying to match direct images (it’s a lot easier to recognize a still frame from The Avengers when it’s uploaded full size than it is to recognize a slightly warped, smaller cropped version with someone in front of it commenting on the video)

    Yeah, I’ve never once seen anything but criticism over the US’s involvement in the middle east.

    The most I’ve seen is a couple people saying the equivalent of “well SOMEONE had to do something about X” And a bunch of others jumping on them to clarify that X either never existed, or was massively exaggerated and the US isn’t the World Police.

    Genuinely would love to see someone link a good faith comment trying to argue the above, so I can tell them all about how they’re a fucknut

    Can you truly say you’ve had the HB experience if you haven’t recieved emoji/sticker/gif spam from people who weren’t alive for 9/11, have never been outside their country, and refuse to listen to opposing views, but know with full certainty that all western countries are 100% full of genociders and colonial rapists who all deserve the glorious death the super benign, extremely peaceful and misunderstood countries of North Korea, China, and Russia who have never once been correctly accused of human rights violations…

    And of course, if they point out that your country has dipped into those things in the past, well your entire worldview is shattered and their whataboutism has solved everything and proves you deserve the death they crave for you.
