The most common argument used in defense of mass surveillance is ‘If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear’. Try saying that to women in the US states where abortion has suddenly become illegal. Say it to investigative journalists in authoritarian countries. Saying ‘I have nothing to hide’ means you stop caring about anyone fighting for their freedom. And one day, you might be one of them.
Abortion should be illegal because it violates the UDHR.The UDHR was edited in 2018 to include the right of abortion. Other than that true.EDIT: sorry for turning this into an off topic political discussion. Didn’t mean to do it here. Delete this comment if you want.
Um, pretty sure that is very not correct. https://reproductiverights.org/un-human-rights-committee-asserts-that-access-to-abortion-and-prevention-of-maternal-mortality-are-human-rights/
This information is pretty new. I didn’t know there was the edit.
It’s from 2018. Sounds like what you don’t know could fill a warehouse.
Nobody can ever know even remotely everything. It’s physically impossible. I’m not a lawyer so it’s not even my main sphere of interest.
You’re right, nobody can ever know even remotely everything.
Luckily, the same device you used to post that comment can also be used to check if what you are about to say is actually true, so you can prevent yourself from spreading misinformation like this in the future.
Further proof that what is illegal or not is volatile.
What is the 31st month? Modulo 12 would make it July.
10th July 2021. Gotcha.
Aaaaaah! What is that date format?!
Yes ik. My sources were from 2019 or so but I guess they had some outdating issues at that time already.
do you live your whole life this confidently incorrect every day?
Calling someone’s opinion “incorrect” shows the true nature of you and the people you represent.
This is an (unsubstantiated) allegation of fact, not an opinion.
I agree because someone told me that the law was edited but the person who replied clearly said “opinion”, not “information”. I do believe that was a sign of toxicity and not just laziness or English issue. As a proof, my own psychological researches confirm that people from similar communities tend to exhibit increased irritability, toxicity and desire of creating exclusive communities.
Where did they say opinion, I don’t see an edit on their comment.
Huh did I reply to a wrong comment then? I’m pretty sure there was “opinion” in it.
That was not an opinion
Then they should’ve used a different word. “Incorrect opinion” is what only a toxic person would say.
Can you just take a second to reflect on how inelegantly you have taken being wrong? You made an incorrect assertion of a fact, just accept you made a mistake and move on. Being stubborn and defensive makes you look kind of immature.
Hope you can take this advice
I did admit my mistake but instead of looking at it, you just decided to falsely accuse me…
Yes you admitted your mistake. And yes you still acted a bit foolish. That’s not a false accusation, it’s just an accusation.
(THIS is an example of an opinion)
You accused me in not admitting my mistake after I admitted it. How in the world is this not a false accusation? And what does it have to do with opinions? I know people are toxic now but I’m being surprised by the stupidity of their words every day recently.
Lol the fact that you think someone presenting a different opinion means they represent anyone is silly, stop perpetuating the politics = sports teams mentality
Upvoting for admitting you were wrong in your edit.
I wish more of the internet acted that way.
I’m all for privacy, but I’m not all for using the comment section to talk about abortion rights. Sure there is some overlap, but the comment section here seems to show the ease of which the human psyche can get distracted, these tangential bickerings are the reason big data is so effortlessly steam rolling us.
I don’t think that’s relevant but still curious to know where you think in the Universal Declaration of human rights or in the Déclaration des droits de l’Homme et du citoyen it forbids abortion
I’m not French and idk French laws. I was talking about the US.
I don’t think you know US laws either
Did I ever claim to?
What are you even saying? You were talking about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which is NOT a US text. And it is based on the Declaration from France from 1789.
Anyway, the UDHR says that humans are born equal in rights, and that individuals have the right to live. It’s a good question to wonder what is considered an individual indeed. For example, the US law defines an individual as a human being who was born alive
It is not a US text but it is accepted to work in the US afaik and I’m quite sure of it. Another person told me that the declaration was edited in 2018 to include the right of abortion. I didn’t know about that and I, in contrary to most people in this discussion, am not afraid to admit this and therefore the fact that I was wrong.
Alright then. Good for you
