Not necessarily. Some give up and die, by their own hand or their abusers'. I've heard some say, "I'm glad and proud my man corrects me."
- Comment on Last woman to be hanged in the UK pardoned 70 years on— Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in United Kingdom, has been granted a conditional pardon following the Deputy Prime Minister’s advice 3 days ago:
This pardon does not undo what happened 71 years ago. It does not restore the lives that were broken - the children left behind, the years lost. But it says, formally and finally, that Ruth should not have been executed; that the justice system failed her. That acknowledgement matters profoundly to our family.
Ruth was a victim of sustained and brutal abuse. Her children - our mother and uncle - never recovered. My uncle took his own life; my mother’s trauma left her unable to be the parent we needed. The shadow of Ruth’s execution has fallen across two generations. We have carried shame that was never ours to bear.
We are deeply grateful to the Justice Secretary for having the courage to act. We hope Ruth’s story serves as a lasting reminder that the justice system must reckon with the abuse that drives women to the edge - and must never be afraid to acknowledge when it has got things wrong.”

You cannot carry out fundamental change without a certain amount of madness. In this case, it comes from nonconformity, the courage to turn your back on the old formulas, the courage to invent the future. Besides, it took the madmen of yesterday for us to be able to act with extreme clarity today. I want to be one of those mad[wo]men.

I remember someone accusing you of being
https://kbin.earth/u/@yogthos@lemmy.ml 😂I remember people talking trash about the Lemmy og devs and the flagship instance and going to investigate, turning from Western lib paper and smiling Fox worshipper to aspiring actual leftist.
I remember finding Lemmy through the upcoming first redexodous through a post made by Ernest, signing up for kbin and migrating from . social to .earth.(may he be happy and well).
I remember the birth of altmediahouse.
I remember your many posts, thoughtful comments, and questions.
May you find life more abundantly, in every way that matters, especially freedom for so of the world's oppressed and disenfranchised. I wish us the phoenix that rises from the ashes of collapse and the vigilance to keep it.

Of course I was much too young to be smoking or drinking, so I was delighted. Not A-B though.

Maybe KSA, Qatar. Dubai, UAE, are as bad or worse, if you're poor. Not having resided or visited, it's pointless speculation.

The United States used black children as alligator bait, allowed and encouraged dogs to rip humans' flesh from their bones and eat it, until they died, made black mothers nurse their infants so whites could play "Hit the N****r Baby" with baseballs that were aimed either at the head, or stomach so they would vomit. This was before portable cameras, microphones and video recording devices were widely available. I'll posit USA probably did it first.

Because Democrats are on the same team as Republicans, and it's not ours. And we're just as ineffective, consumed by inertia.
