I don't think you have the right attitude toward the human element of these cases even on a charitable read of your comment.
Have you ever been wrongly imprisoned? Do you think being wrongly imprisoned, even if you are ultimately released, would have no psychological or social effect on you as a person?
As someone who has lived as a white person in the US and as a minority elsewhere, I assure you, being treated with suspicion until proven otherwise is not anywhere close to as innocuous as you seem to think.
"While the arena acknowledged keeping information on celebrities’ sexual orientations..."
James Dolan, you do realize that this is still quite bad, right ?
If you're talking about easily available running shoes, there are still select New Balances that are union made in the US (as of a couple of years ago).
If you're looking for just sneakers, there are a ton made in Europe you can get shipped to north america! I have Vegas at the moment
Ok, unlike the other commenter, you are engaging and this is a fair point.
I don't know enough about the Nepal and South Korea case to assess how fast it took: Yes, it looked like a week to international observers who aren't reading the Nepal Daily or whatever, but I'd want to here from people on the ground about how much or how little lead up and organization there was leading up to the tipping points.
But that's not disagreeing with you - just saying I genuinely don't know if you're right or not, but I do appreciate the comparisons.
I'm a bit confused on how quickly you expect political change to happen...do you think the effectiveness (or lack thereof) of No Kings can be assessed a week on?
Imagine you were in Birmingham during the bus boycott - after a week you'd be out there saying "look! We did this and nothing happened!"
I don't love everything about no kings, the tactics, and the messaging. But give it a second, dude!
I don't think so. Its just not necessary. Especially in a city like New York, there will just be a Capital Strike to make sure Mamdani fails at everything he tries. Then they'll blame socialism.

It's for extradition to the UK, I think this is outside of his purview.

Agreed 100%!!!
I'm convinced that Chiles and Tim Dowling have some kind of blackmail on the owners of The Guardian. It just makes no sense otherwise.
I've seen the conflation here on Lemmy too.
Yes, it absolutely was a thing and I think in some places may still be a thing (or recommended by older generations)
Is this video sped up? Its really uncanny in a way that's making it difficult to pay attention to what she is saying (which is important!).
Oof. Missed this. Thanks, good to know!

They have six months to refile, though it isn't clear it would hold up: https://www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11/24/us/trump-news/10b95929-ec4d-551a-ba4c-0de3f63c485d
I did mean itch.io, but that's alright - the ambiguity was my fault and I'm not completely set on itch.io.
Mobile not necessary. Thanks so much!
Does someone have a more specific source? I want to read more into these numbers. I knew it was bad, but wow
Hey! I'm in this picture!
@Linktank@lemmy.today I assume you are right, I think the photos are from an experiment from the 50s or 60s.

100% agree with the above!
