Its not just bots. Im a ordinary user and I honestly didnt know how much of her stories are even true. Not everyone is even interested in this from day to day.

I thought it was about connections from her rich family, and their ability to pull strings to make these sort of things happen for their kid.

But from this thread, it seems the Wikipedia truth is that she is seen as a hero and risking her life. Maybe that is what actually happened, I wouldnt know.

Its probably more about wanting justice and being unable to get it. Living in a country where police pops a journalist and nothing really happens. Just some article that someone is “concerned”.

I dont think its a complaint about the journalism per se. Just feeling frustrated that the police officer is not immediately dismissed and sent to court to stand trial for obvious intentional use of force against someone completely innocent.

But America has changed and the very president encourages violence and pure racism, so… Yeah.

Used to be only black people being treated like this. Now we have equality!

A young girl with this much determination… So you think anyone with enough determination will be able to speak to the EU and get media coverage to argue with Donald Trump?

I dont have one. I just thought it was strange. Normally people dont get any attention at all. You have thousands of people demonstrating over issues and they get almost zero attention. This girl was put on media, got a lot of support and attention and became some kind of a symbol. Why her?

People protest all the time and nothing happens.

Yeah maybe that is the reason. It was just very strange to me.

I dont know. I just would like to know why she is treated special and became a world celebrity, since nobody else could do that.

Literally everything is manipulation. Nobody questions why this particular girl was allowed to speak in front of the EU. Nobody thinks about why things happen. Who are selected and who is not. What agenda is played out.

If you as a teenager wants to talk to the EU, you think you can just do that? Many questions.

She is kind of clueless, but yeah. At least maybe sparks people thinking.

No it comes from long experience of knowing they will get away with it.

Its about having operating bases around the world, to make sure you can reach/strike/influence anywhere you need.

It will say something like:

“The twitter wars. Millions of people posted comments on social media and upvoted posts, and were shocked when it changed absolutely nothing.”

Ok I understand. There is no way someone connect what you write here with your real identity. Only your instance even sees your ip. And your internet provider I guess.

You shouldnt. Post and be downvoted. As long as you are not intentionally trolling anyone, it shows strength of character to stand up for what you believe.

Its very different from work where you are not free to do what you want, because your entire paycheck is based on going along with the charade. You dont have to do that outside of work. :)

I guess its also our culture where sex is seen as the most important thing in life. So everyone is convinced their entire value consists of how much mating they are doing. Maybe that would be true if we were breeding animals but we are not.

I was not cool. That was a crime that was punished severely.

You dont use your real name on Lemmy so I dont see why your history matters here. I could understand it on linkedin, which is why its a super cringe platform also, but here? I dont see a problem.

I like Lemmy because it can be genuine and real, unless posted on a instance that moderates away opinions the moderators dont agree with.

You can go back and find opinions in my history you wont agree with. But thats because i dont try to look a certain way, and I dont change my opinions to look good to others.

I think everyone should do the same. Be who you are. Reflect on feedback, maybe you are wrong, but if you dont think so, dont change yourself.

Bad sex is not better than no sex… Wtf… :)

Emotionally mature women do calm down. It just depends on the level of trust she has in what you say.

If you are known to her as someone she trusts and listens to, then she will consider if you are right and start to calm down if she thinks you are.

But it depends a bit on age and maturity and life experiences and all sorts of things.
