      Unless you’re a part of .ml, apparently. They auto-censor that stuff for some reason.

        hold up…the CCCP supporting fascist loving asscrack of the federation censors posts?!

        to hear a ml user, they make it seem like they’re having a fucking blast over there… sounds like a fucking gulag.

        I mean… could I have gone and found the original, maybe. Did it cross my mind, no I jumped straight to do it on my phone and make it look as natural as possible, but of course this was the harder option. 🤦‍♂️

        One theory is that it’s done intentionally to farm engagement from people pointing it out. Also I think most mainstream platforms heavily push down in the algorithm content that isn’t sanitised. This is to make the platform more appealing to advertisers because the platform’s userbase is the product.

        As for why the words are partly censored instead of completely censored I’m not sure. I’d guess it’s to game the algorithm while also making the word completely obvious.

        Either way, if this is the behaviour that you engage in on a platform, that platform is terrible and you are an attention obsessed idiot.

        It’s to get by censorship algorithms on certain sites. The picture is copied as-is, so it stays even when not needed.

    Even if it was a human, Chris would be wrong with his lie about “90% of scientists.” Not sure why people think a lie will help their argument in cases like this.

      Eh… A Human fetus is human, but it is not “a human”. Your toenail clipping are human.

      Plus, the humanity or personhood of a fetus doesn’t really matter for the pro-choice position. Simply put, there is no (other) legal situation that can compell you to give up your bodily autonomy.

      Example. I can shoot someone in the street in cold blood, and they could die without a blood transfusion. The courts cannot compell me to do something as harmless as donating blood to save that person’s life. A fetus, despite arguably being a person, does not have a right to your blood, your breath, your nutrients, or a space inside your body. Full stop.

      Also, even if 90% of scientists did say that… what percentage of those scientists are not biologists?

      Do we need to know a geologist’s or physicist’s opinion about “some sort of weird meat-science”?

      Like the old “Yeah, sorry, I am a Doctor, but I’m a Doctor of Jazz, not medicine”

      They don’t care about facts data or science. They use it to argue in bad faith, not to have a serious convo.

      If you call that out they’ll just ignore you and try and get you with some other made up gotcha fact.

        Exactly. It’s something like a gish gallop - you can’t really rebut that and explain why it’s a comment made in bad faith, but to casual readers it’s a valid retort.

      I had a…call? survey? at some point from an entity that probably gave rise to this data. It was basically a push-poll that used question order and positive reinforcement to try to get people to agree that abortion is murder.

      Mostly, it tried to conflate “human” with “a human,” starting out with things like “are cells isolated from humans still human?” “Can cultured cells be called ‘viable?’” “So would you agree that tissue cultured from a human donor is viable, human tissue?”

      Because they aren’t arguing to persuade the other party but to persuade the readers/listeners that won’t bother to research if its actually true.

      I doubt even 10% of the scientists can tell a human embryo apart from a dolphin.

      I really expect nobody from the physics, math, social sciences, history, geology, or almost every other department to do it.
