They’re coming for you even then if you aren’t rich.
Yep. There’s “rich” relative to most folks, then there is couldn’t-spend-all-my-interest-income-in-a-thousand-lifetimes rich.
The real leopards know which is which.

Unless you are white, male, CIS-het, and an evangelical Xian, they are coming for you to. You’re just a bit further down the list.
Haven’t been there in a decade despite having been there for a decade and helping many real people in real life from there, and I’d have to say: depends on who the target of the violence is and whether or not it’s phased in the subjunctive mood.
Well you have just described Metafilter. I’m a liberal a lefty as can be, and eventually even I got tired of the drama and obvious virtue signaling. And at the end of the day, drama and less-than-appropriate virtue signaling were what the mods wanted.
Learned that a less-hard-way when I killed my battery charging it overnight. Thank god the stupid did not remain with me long when I found out why this was a very bad (as like the article) expensive idea.
This is a good answer and probably the right solution (still not 100% convinced defederating isn’t, ultimately, going to be the answer though).
But your Jane/Joe Average User doesn’t look to see which instance that pr0n cute picture of a cat holding a teddy bear is on. They probably don’t even understand the concept of different instances showing content from others. Hell I’ve been online since 1992 and it took me a couple of days to get my head around it when I joined.
So I think we need some kind of step by step “If you see X, then do Y” sticked to the instances that care about this for the people who (like me) do care about this issue.
Can we use fire again to put down the rebellion, pretty please?
I too am skeptical, but there have been so many of these the last few days… is it just a new meme?
And the SWIFT System.
And many parents working two jobs while living in a food desert have few good alternatives. Ain’t got the time nor money.
That’s how you keep folks scared.
N=18. No control.
That’s a fair point and needs to be explored. But the study does not do what it says on the tin.
There are plenty of valid reasons for wanting one. I’m not against them. They just don’t suit my particular use case, and I hate deliberately misleading studies.
Not OP but can I just comment that there are some high-quality answers here, good discussion. Thanks!
Comment saved, thanks.
Folks this is a garbage study. N=18, and then extrapolating the dangers based on aggregated stats of disease states?
Pretty much everyone here in NL who is aware that would agree with you.
This is some very good advice. My eldest son is on the spectrum (also low needs now, but was moderate for a while), and he has found D&D groups to be just stimulating enough. Just as an example.
Tech can be your friend here. You can search for people with similar interests. For example, here in NL there’s an app for people who want to go on a walk (obviously, safety first of course). The point being use tech to help you discover stuff you like then find other people who are into the same thing.
That’s enough internet for today.
False flag crossed my mind as well, but it would require an absolutely massive conspiracy between federal, local LE, and some very dumb hicks that simply could not happen unnoticed.
