It can probably be done with any video player, but it may be necessary to duplicate it and change the file extension.

I guess there is no need for further commentary on why the strict moderation of a “safe space”/walled garden cannot keep up with the growth of such an open space as activitypub.

So in response to the title, I would think this is fantastic news! You say your principle is “be nice”, which I think is great and I wish it was the general norm, but from what I’ve seen and heard it would be more like “you better think like us, because we aggressively enforce political correctness and ideological censorship”. It would be a pity to lose its users, but I simply hate to end up on beehaw by mistake and would be happier to see it disappear.

Same for me, and it’s not even just about sponsors as there are many other categories. How does it help the creators to tell me for the umpteenth time to subscribe or something about a bell, when I don’t even have a google account?

Sponsorblock is a wonder, I wouldn’t watch certain channels without it anymore.

The gap is too wide to agree, even between europe and the US there is a radically opposite stance between pro- and anti-consumer rights.

There is a war of misinformation and propaganda (on both sides), the " I’ve heard" are especially worthless.

I guess, but arguing that they only have the (false) dichotomy of committing genocide or disappearing is pretty close to it.

I have never seen anyone supporting hamas, at most justifying the legitimacy of some of its objectives and the right to fight for them, but not its actions; always being critical of hamas and its war crimes.

In fact, high tolerance or even open support for war crimes is something I have only seen on the zionist side.

The problem is that this also takes a heavy toll on ukraine and requires a lot of external support. This new phase of the war could be seen as unprofitable, cutting off at least some of that support.

Even before the annexation, crimea was mostly pro-russian. If anything there should be another referendum, but this time with guarantees.

Edit: I know the right to self-determination is controversial, you may not like what others decide for themselves, that’s your business; but please don’t bother if you just want to talk nonsense, misrepresent or putting words in my mouth. Thanks.

You can, but if you merely assert it would be as sterile as your comment, nothing factual, which is the question I politely asked about.

The text talks about the 8 years of fear felt by a gay man, hopeful activists, government opposition to the lgbt movement, etc, but nothing about acts. Can anyone expand a bit on new laws or attempts to take away rights?

This will be somewhat long and tedious, I will try to explain it from memory because I don’t want to dedicate the absurd amount of hours it requires. Maybe I’m missing or I’m wrong about something, if that’s the case please just talk about it.

That video has been extensively analyzed by expert witnesses and they make it clear that this “head grab” was not forced. It should also be noted that a few seconds before that she hugged/grabbed him against him and practically lifted him in the air, so she was not exactly defenseless. Nor did it catch her by surprise, because he verbally and unequivocally asked for consent (there is no evidence of what she answers, but it is obvious that if it were “no” she would not act as she will later), which not only the expert witnesses made clear, but she herself has acknowledged. Moreover, this is an (absurd) tradition, there is nothing to suggest that it was sexual in any way.

The event had a specialized team to detect cases of “gender violence”, one of their members was nearby and immediately asked her, and she declared that everything was fine. Later they did a full investigation, they also asked her and the others again, and again everything was fine.

Then in the locker rooms you mention and other places, there are some moments when she talks about what happened, she mentions that she “didn’t like it” but it can be understood that she doesn’t like him in a romantic/sexual way, because she always does it with a clear joking tone. That becomes much clearer later because she herself also shows that video to her friends and laughing about it. There is even a scene in a bus where all the players cheer for rubiales, evidencing the closeness he had with the team and the “victim” (hence her surprise hug/grabbing him before the kiss, and the kiss itself).

At this point everything is fine, until the “minister of equality” (equality in orwell scale) pointed it out as “gender violence” and from here everything becomes quite chaotic, so following the story is a headache. Let’s sum it up in that the “victim” started out mildly supportive of rubiales, then spent quite some time refusing to speak out or get involved, and finally was moving to condemn the acts; with some contradictions and lies being disproven, in my opinion she seems to want to attack the organization more than rubiales.

PS: Still too long, sorry.

An official position is saying a lot, but I’m pretty sure I’ve read news stories about senior officials making statements along those lines.

Ha… accusing me of being a troll defender for criticizing a fallacy, which in itself is another fallacy.
I don’t encounter trolls on a daily basis, but for me a troll is not someone with a different opinion.

If you’re just going to use a quick ad-hominem, you might as well have said nothing.

And it continues this absurd big scandal over a non-sexual act where explicit consent was asked for and was not a problem for anyone, until feminism insisted on turning it into their new cause. It’s been in the media spotlight for months while the real dramas go unnoticed, it’s a shame.
