The issue for me is this line, which still gets it wrong, because it should either replace the word “legislatures” with “professionals in the field” or say it should be done in consultation with.

the majority wrote that decisions on emerging policy issues like transgender care are generally better left to legislatures rather than judges.

Yes. There’s a lot of projection going on here. While I understand that art allows us to see and project ourselves onto it, I don’t believe a movie about a plastic fashion doll is quite the same.

Because the way Threads works is almost seamlessly allowing existing Instagram users to create a Threads account. There is no corollary for Masto or Lemmy or any Fed entities to do something similar.

It’s corporate synergy, baby.

Yeah. There’s almost no argument to be made, no list of caveats and requirements designed to prevent misuse, that can make a law like this palatable.

One need only look at the US’ FISA program to see that the public just won’t have it.

They got so used to the protests that it seems too quiet now.

It really depends. If you’re in a smaller instance and you look at the global view, you’re going to see more of Mr. 16.5% than one of the smaller ones.

Though I suspect usage patterns and the way users interact with instances beyond theirs will play a role. But, in an immediate sense, I could see larger instances having a bigger voice (so to speak).

And now I’ll waffle and say it’s all a crapshoot because people are unpredictable and social media platforms even more so.
