Finland to criminalise Holocaust denial in c/upliftingnews@lemmy.world
[โ€“] MoonlightFox@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I am not sure. I don't think we should punish someone that acted in good faith.

There is a possibility (not likely) of someone not learning about the holocaust by the age of 15. In Norway you can be punished from that age and up. Maybe the person had nutjobs for parents etc. I think I learned about it at 13-14. There is a lot about it in the Norwegian curriculum, so you have to really be unlucky to not learn anything about it.

Anyways, it is ethically wrong to punish a person that was unfortunate and did not get a proper education and parenting. How to handle those cases is difficult though. Holocaust is a pretty obvious case of something EVERYONE is exposed to a lot. There are however lots of other historical facts that a person might not know. Is thst fair to punish someone for?

Disinformation is spreading misinformation on purpose, knowing that it is incorrect.

Spreading misinformation should (in my opinion) not be illegal in itself, people should in many cases be given the benefit of the doubt. It might be ignorance.

A judge/jury should decide if it is done knowingly.

Crazy interview with Boaz Bismuth from the Israeli administration (Skip to 0:40, rest is in english) (www.nrk.no)

The interview is pretty wild. The introduction the first 40 seconds is in Norwegian. He talks about how this interview is unprecedented and that he has never experienced anything like this (You will understand why).

The journalist is a respected renowned Norwegian journalist covering various wars and politics.

Highly recommended interview. Although a bit frustrating at times, as it was hard to get any straight answers.

Edit: I tested the link with a VPN and it should work from outside of Norway.

First off, I am a bit torn here, but will take the opposing side for arguments sake.

This is not an opinion. The holocaust happened, that makes it a fact.

I get your point, but should disinformation (as in deliberate misinformation) be allowed? How much harm should we accept from people spreading disinformation before we do something? The harm here being antisemitism.

Antisemitism is growing because people do not differentiate Israel and Jewish people. Many jews report that they do not feel safe in otherwise safe countries.

This is a hard question. Not sure what I think.. Might be side effects that are hard to foresee

People are making leaving so needlessly difficult. Do you want to leave? Just leave and say that it's time to leave.

"I think it's time for me to leave. It has been great seeing you again and hanging out!"

Want people to leave? "I am starting to feel a bit tired, so I think we got to wrap this up"

If you are leaving a party with many people? First say goodbye to the host, then announce it to everyone. "It's time for me to leave. Was great seeing everyone again!"

Always say goodbye to the host, just leaving is in my opinion a bit rude. People may disagree on this.

I have had a theory that the personality tests are just to have an excuse to discriminate with plausible deniability.

Is EU membership compatible with a country becoming socialist? in c/socialism@lemmy.ml

I struggled finding a source for this, I'd like to understand it fully. Do you have one?

Could you share some sources on your claim that states are encouraged to incarcerate journalists?

Is EU membership compatible with a country becoming socialist? (lemmy.world)
 

I am a Norwegian. Norway is a part of EFTA, but not the EU.

I am currently pro EU, but also fairly pro socialism, or at the very least pro social democracy.

I want Norway to have the security guarantees the EU offers, I want the same currency, I want Norway to be able to participate in changing EU, not just accepting something Brussels have decided without our participation (EFTA). And several other reasons.

We can currently veto implementing some decisions, but not too many.

If Norway joins the EU will it make it harder for Norway to transition to socialism/maintain social democracy?

Store for various fun and political enamel pins? (lemmy.world)
 

I am looking for fun and political enamel pins, and haven't found any good european stores.

I was thinking of having some political ones and some fun ones on my backpack.

Showing my support for various causes.

Patrick Stewart on Extras - YouTube (www.youtube.com)
 

No spoilers, just one of the best scenes in the show.

Many of the actors in the show play as bizzare versions of themselves. Patrick Stewart is one of the truly great ones.

Source of new perspectives in the form of high quality chronicles / editorials (lemmy.world)
 

I really enjoy getting my view of the world challenged, preferably through chronicles and editorials about society, ethics, politics etc.

I consider myself to be open to new ideas and change. I do however have certain strongly held values, which are harder to change.

I know reading books from different authors could also accomplish the same thing. But I find that I rarely have the patience to follow one specific political point of view for an entire book.

I am interested in original ideas, or old ideas that are not mainstream. Pretty much most points of views.

I find that editorials and chronicles is a good way to grow and either enforce or weaken a belief.

Any good RSS feeds, newspapers etc. that focuses heavily on this?

Curious about socialism (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/27921882

Hi! I am a stranger on this instance, I have read a lot of warnings about the "tankie triad", but wanted to see for myself and keep an open mind.

I watched this video, and it made me want to take a deep dive into socialism/communism, with as much objectivity as I can. https://youtu.be/BeRjTtKFlVM

I understand how capitalism works, and I have doubts that it is a sustainable system for society long term, but social democracy has been a good way of keeping capitalism in-check in Norway. So even if capitalism is not ideal, it is in theory possible to tax the rich more and keep the whole thing going in the future. I also understand the exploitation and the extraction of surplus value, rent seeking etc.

Other capitalist countries such as the US is currently struggling with basic human needs. And that is "the shining beacon of capitalism".

In Norway it has for a long time been common to use the US as an example of what not to do.

What I am interested in learning is how society would operate and function under socialism / communism. More about the differences. Preferably from less dry sources than The Capital from Marx. Where can I learn more? Preferably a bit entertaining.

It is important to me that it is historically accurate and factually correct.

Look forward to your replies ๐Ÿ˜Š

How to protect against someone forcefully unlocking my phone and password manager with biometrics? (lemmy.world)
 

I really like the convenience of using fingerprint unlock for lockscreen and password manager. I do however don't like the thought of being forced to unlock both physically.

I use Android with GrapheneOS.

I have set up lockdown, but it takes some time to hold the power button and then click lockdown.

Any creative solutions?

What are my options for SMS/RCS? (lemmy.world)

I have a lot of friends and family that use SMS/RCS and I can't get them all to use Signal.

I have the option to send SMS from a simple FOSS SMS app, and then we can communicate back and forth.

I've heard something about RCS getting E2EE and find that appealing.

What is the future of RCS? What are my options, and should I just stick with SMS?

Edit: Stick with SMS when I have to, and use Signal etc when possible ofc.

PeerTube Channels? (lemmy.world)
 

I am trying to replace my reliance on youtube.

I use GrayJay and have Youtube, DailyMotion(French) and PeerTube set up as sources.

Unfortunately PeerTube has really bad discoverability or little content, I don't know which.

I subscribe to Gardiner Bryant, VKC, TechLore, PrivacyGuides and a few more.

What channels do you recommend?

So it might be best to just rate it based on features if you write something, or just rate the apps without text at all.
