Are immigrants taking jobs from 'native' U.S. workers? by Dune1032 in politics

No - it developed as a Reagan Republican era visa:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-1_visa

What was initially for multinational American firms in 1970, became under the Reagan Republicans a cheap farm labor option that saw 70,000 migrants annually into the US.

I witnessed it first hand. In August and September each year it was common for teens to travel to regional farms and help pick crops, making a lot of extra money. Many in the middle class did this as a side job before the 1980s. Starting in the early 1980s, all of those side jobs were taken by Mexicans or South Americans, many of them returning south in the winter. By the mid 1980s, many of them remained on the farms throughout the year.

Again, you're oversimplifying this issue. The first part of the answer to your question is here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_230

There are many limitations to this legislation. For example, Saidit cannot legally host (esp. for a 3rd party) a movie by Paramount Pictures. If Saidit did this, Paramount would send a 'cease and desist' letter. If Saidit/m7/admins did not remove the movie, Paramount could sue Saidit for copyright infringement. That said, it's unlikely that Saidit and many other websites would be contacted if they hosted an occasional movie.

The second part of the answer to your question:

If someone in the UK posted fake nudes of your ex and she asked for the removal of said nudes, the hosting website would be the 'publisher' of said nudes and liable for prosecution, unless the host removed the nudes at the request of a cease and desist letter. The UK has a Defamation Act (2013) that "will treat a disseminator of information as having "published" material posted by a user, and the onus will then be on a defendant to prove that it did not know the publication was defamatory and was not negligent in failing to know.". In that case, the website host can avoid a lawsuit by identifying the person who posted it, whereby the lawsuit would be directed at the person who posted the fake nude.

If a website host like Telegram Messenger distributes child porn and disinformation about the identity of someone that leads to 30 riots in the UK (and endangers the life of the innocent person who is falsely identified), the Telegram Messenger's owner is liable for damages unless the CP and identity disinformation is removed.

You can also read at that Wikipedia website Trump's efforts to publish Hunter Biden's personal information and photos at major social media websites by Executive Order in 2020. That personal information has been available at other websites, but Trump wanted it to be more widely available. It's Hunter's content, not Trump's, not yours. It's also misleading content, hacked by Russians at Trump's request, always shared with the misinformation about Hunter (who was prosecuted for the illegal possession of a gun, but nothing more than this, if I recall). Trump has shared on a regular basis lies and disinformation that have been seriously harmful to others.

Section 230 should not protect people like Trump and his wealthy associates. Nor should you want to protect these authoritarians.

It's better than Trump's response to Katrina.

They're getting the aid in as fast as they can and combatting the misinformation by right wing cunts trying to leverage a disaster for political gain, that is spreading so fast they have to put up a Rumor Response page.

Remember how trump blocked aid to states that didn't vote for him?

So people were concerned that the NYPD entering campus turned the demonstrations violent.

That's not terrorism. That's students fighting for their first amendment rights.

And again, students telling each other that they don't appreciate each others point of view, can run in to Hyperbole such as calls to burn Tel Aviv to the ground. Without being able to cross the Atlantic and Mediterranean, you'd have to think that it was talk rather than an actual threat or attempt.

Such irrelevancies aside, the prestige of the education is difficult to match.

1) From your link: That increased security, as well as formal opportunities for people with opposing views to interact, are being cited as reasons why demonstrations on and near campus were peaceful.

2) A heated demonstration is not necessarily terrorism. To be terrorism, the violence has to be the tool to advance political objectives. People who's families are killing each other in another part of the world getting heated is just people with a lot of skin in the game going into detail as to how they don't appreciate each other's point of view very much.

[–]yellowsnow2 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

microRNA are involved in RNA silencing and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression.

There is a risk of creating infection-competent viruses that could infect non-consenting people.[64] There is also a risk of affecting future generations based on these treatments. These two scenarios, in respect to autonomy, is possible unethical. At this moment, unsafe delivery methods and unintended aspects of vector viruses add to the argument against RNA silencing.[63]

In terms of off-target effects, siRNA can induce innate interferon responses, inhibit endogenous miRNAs through saturation, and may have complementary sequences to other non-target mRNAs. These off-targets could also have target up-regulations such as oncogenes and antiapoptotic genes. The toxicity of RNA silencing is still under review as there are conflicting reports. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNA_silencing#Ethics_&_Risk-Benefit_Analysis

But this kind of tax will help secure the future. The future is renewable, and those economies that move earlier will have the advantage.

Presumably our coal was a better deal; they would have needed to pay more and in turn burn less.

They're not short of trade surplus. Their ability to pay isn't the limiting factor when it comes to their coal consumption.

Instead, if you believe in human-caused climate change

What do you mean "if". Are you suggesting someones made a mistake with CO2's emission spectrum, and it's not a greenhouse gas, and the measurements of the energy imbalance at the top of the atmosphere is thousands of measurement mistakes, and the observed warming is just a conspiracy of thermometer manufacturers and oceanographers?

those policies doomed us by super-charging China's ultra-fast, coal and oil-based industrialization.

China's emissions may have peaked last year: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-02877-6.

Certainly they were declining since then. Let's look at bringing down or own.

That's a chart showing an economy destroyed by government lockdowns and a billion other economy-destroying, globalist policies.

Nope, that's a chart of reducing emissions. The economy itself is growing.

These "incentivized clean technologies" haven't boosted shit.

Opinion varies

Our insignificant reductions were more than compensated for by the industry - and coal - that we sent to China.

China would have burned their own coal or Australia's if you hadn't sent it. The reduction in domestic emissions is a reduction in global emissions.

We didn't need any new technologies. Canada had nuclear. We were really good at that.

On a business by business level there are emission savings to be made, by choosing what process or energy source to utilize. Which is related to why per capita emissions dropped after the introduction of the tax

Scientific Research Integrity

While there have been instances of research misconduct across various fields, it's inaccurate to claim that 90% of pharmaceutical research is fraudulent. Rigorous peer-review processes, regulatory oversight, and replication studies help maintain scientific integrity[1].

Climate Change Research

The overwhelming majority of climate scientists agree that human-induced climate change is occurring. This consensus is based on decades of research from diverse sources, not a coordinated "scam"[1]. Publication bias in climate science has been studied, with some research finding no evidence of such bias[3].

Pharmaceutical Treatments for COVID-19

The effectiveness of Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) for COVID-19 treatment remains controversial. While some studies suggested potential benefits, larger, more rigorous clinical trials have not shown significant efficacy. It's crucial to rely on comprehensive, peer-reviewed research rather than anecdotal evidence[1].

Food Quality and Agriculture

There are legitimate concerns about modern agricultural practices and food quality:

Soil Health: Intensive farming can indeed deplete soil nutrients, potentially affecting crop nutritional content. Sustainable farming practices aim to address this issue[1].

Pesticide Use: While pesticides like glyphosate (Roundup) have raised health concerns, their effects are still being studied. Regulatory agencies continually assess their safety based on available scientific evidence[1].

GMOs: Genetically modified organisms are extensively studied and generally considered safe by scientific consensus, though ongoing research continues to evaluate long-term effects[1].

In conclusion, while skepticism is healthy, it's crucial to distinguish between legitimate scientific debate and unfounded conspiracy theories. Relying on peer-reviewed research, reputable scientific institutions, and expert consensus provides a more accurate understanding of complex issues like climate change, medical treatments, and food production.

Published June 17th of this year from the Fraser Institute it shows, using the governments own data, that Canadians are worse off.

The one you link to claims to show that they will be worse off.

And that may be the case overall while 80% of households are better off.

These "incentivized clean technologies" haven't boosted shit.

That reduced global warming and probably means that Hurricane Milton will hit with marginally lower wind speeds than if Canada hadn't been reducing emissions.

LAMO the utter brazen hubris and stupidity on display. Our insignificant reductions were more than compensated for by the industry - and coal - that we sent to China.

We didn't need any new technologies. Canada had nuclear. We were really good at that. We should have started doing that 30 years ago. Apparently our leaders don't believe in climate change.

I am literally giving you the view from the ground here.

Support is not the same across Canada. And even when it was most Canadians, it was highest in Quebec.

What part of "the ground" are you giving the view from?

In no way is it popular,

This is correct. But support has dropped from 56% in 2021. From this article..

It's not innovative.

The things that make it innovative:

  • It distributes 90% of the tax back to households, making it broadly progressive.
  • It distributes 10% of the tax to fund environmental projects for small businesses, municipalities, hospitals, schools, and Indigenous communities, making it good for the small businesses or the environment.
  • Exporters get a rebate, so that the international competitiveness of Canadian businesses isn't compromised.

It's just another money grab that goes into general government revenues.

Are you really Canadian? No it doesn't:

The federal government distributes 90 per cent of the proceeds of the carbon tax to households in the form of a rebate, while 10 per cent are used to fund environmental projects for small businesses, municipalities, hospitals, schools, and Indigenous communities.

It doesn't help save the planet.

It looks a lot like it does: Here's a chart of Canada's greenhouse gas emissions per person from 2010 to 2022.

It's not wasted. It incentivises technologies and processes that are lower in carbon emissions. That reduced global warming and probably means that Hurricane Milton will hit with marginally lower wind speeds than if Canada hadn't been reducing emissions.

And it pays households which in 80% of cases gives them more disposable income, which in turn is broadly progressive by income group and boosts the economy.

[–]ActuallyNot 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

That's not circular. The tax raises money from carbon emissions which incentivises technologies and processes that the country needs to move to.

It pays for a rebate to households, than compensates for the increase in prices, in 80% of cases.

Yes its money coming in and going out of government coffers, but its not circular, because it's not coming from exactly the same entity as it is going to. In this way it is like all tax.

The site is moderated. It's tiny. Posts can appear and be removed thereafter, as happens elsewhere. This doesn't require Big Corp to run, if volunteers are acting in good faith. What you and other spreaders of disinformation (much of it promoted by wealthy assholes) want us to think about Hilary's comment is that comments protected by the First Amendment would be deemed illegal. Not true. Saidit already prohibits child porn and - when anyone cares - direct incitements to violence that organize riots or murders &c. That's because of Cloudflare requirements, and those two forms of speech aren't protected by the 1st Amendment. In short: there hasn't been illegal activity on Saidit that Cloudflare would notice (if more than 30 people knew this website existed). Now that most people get their information online, Section 230 must be repealed, to deal with heavily-funded disinformation campaigns which create dangerous situations that are not protected by the First Amendment. These are the same regulations for TV & cable companies. It's nothing new.

The thing the tax does is it makes lower carbon technologies and procedures cheaper. And gives 80% of households more extra money than they spend on the tax.

10 of Canada's 13 provinces or territories have adopted the federal plan

If a province did not adopt the federal carbon plan or create it's own version (which had to look a lot like the feds version) they were threatened by the feds by withholding federal transfer payments. So not adopting a plan was not an option. They were forced into it.

The Niskanen Center reports that 80% of households come out ahead when receiving the rebate.

The Parliamentary Budget Office deeply disagrees. Published June 17th of this year from the Fraser Institute it shows, using the governments own data, that Canadians are worse off.
