Of course that shitcunt was involved.
Still wake me up if anything comes of it, I expect little from the UK.

Aussieiuszko@aussie.zoneto Australia@aussie.zone•Aboriginal community shaken by second death in Australian police custodyEnglish5·1 month agoCross-posting my rebuttal of this misleading stat:
It’s not just that.
Aboriginal people died at a rate of 0.13 per 100 prisoners, compared to a death rate of 0.21 per 100 prisoners for the total prison population.
[…]
The same AIC report calculated that Indigenous people as a whole died in police custody at more than six times the rate of non-Indigenous people as a whole – 0.61 per 100,000 people, compared to 0.09 per 100,000 people.
As a prison population, they don’t die at a higher rate. As a whole peoples they do.

Aussieiuszko@aussie.zoneto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so?40·1 month agoMate, first off he’s not your best friend.
Could anyone here imagine if their friends did something so horrible to their mother that they caused her to break down upset? I wouldn’t fucking go hang out with them afterwards, like fuck he’s your friend.
He is your father, and apparently a terrible one if this is the life lessons he wants to impart on his son that it’s okay to be an immature fuck and cheat over get a divorce.
Cutting him off 100% doesn’t sound right, but you have clearly chosen his side and to stand by him despite how wrong it is — you’re going to have to work hard to make up for your poor choice.
They’re not doing it to “be different”
Also your excuse is pathetic, “rich people are worse, so fuck it?”, do you apply that logic to say throwing trash out your window? I mean the environment already has bottles in it and rich companies do worse, so why justify not litter.
Individual actions are not the solution, but they are part of the process.
Instead of complaining that people are suggesting we go back from a rather recent change in hygiene practices to a less destructive form than what capitalism has told us we need to buy, why don’t you do something to better the world?
