Be careful with being explained politics from other countries, even sourced. If you asked a big part of the french population what are LFI's politics they'd tell you all sort of horrors that the media baselessly accuses them of simply because they are dangerous to the capitalistic system we live in. The formerly mainstream french "left" hates them too and always has.

Unfortunately more and more media all around the world is owned by more or less hidden oligarch wannabes.

I don't know swedish politics either, but I wouldn't trust random strangers on the internet to tell me what they are.

    You're arguing over the intentions of men in a world that has been massively patriarchal for longer than your religion exists. Please.

    With this fun mental gymnastic logic you could argue that priests can't be white because Jesus wasn't white :)

    Just because it is a tradition does not mean it is not sexist.

    Your comments only do one thing: Showing that catholic traditions are sexist. And you argue that because it is tradition, it is okay. No. It's not. If your tradition is sexist, then fuck your tradition, it has to fucking go.

    1. You can't just negate a heat wave with AC, most people actually need to be outside sometimes.
    2. AC mitigates the symptom, not the root. Actually, it contributes to the root issue massively, especially with wide-scale use. And it will not be enough when the heatwaves will reach 10, 20 °C higher.

    No, it is not the same thing. A downvote is disapproval, an upvote is approval, and no vote is neutral.

    The only way to have the same outcome than a downvote with only upvotes is to upvote every single other comment, and that means I lose the ability to specifically approve and promote other comments that I think specifically deserve more visibility.

    Seeing a downvote as negativity is an interpretation problem. All it means is that people disapprove with you, and that is okay. If you are downvoted more than upvoted, then you know your opinion is unpopular. Doesn't meant it's bad or good.

    For instance, I neither downvoted nor upvoted your comment, because I consider it a valuable part of the conversation, but I still don't approve it.

    Not everyone downvoting wants the censure of your post or comment, no.

    For instance, I downvoted this comment because I think it's a poor generalization and I'd rather have better thought out comments promoted, not because I want it censored.

    How can it be on the downvoters when there is typically no justification tied to a downvote? Misinterpretation is on the poster, not on the downvoter.

    Even if it was that simple, this is still a vulnerability that is basically a time bomb. The day that code would have been triggered would have been disastrous.

    But this isn't new, bug bounties tend to have terms as strict as they can to deny you the bounty while they obviously end up fixing issues that don't qualify for the bounty. All because of reason X or Y that turns out to be a subjective interpretation of a vague enough eligibility requirement.

    It's not my definition. That is the subtle difference between the two words. But, most people use both words for the same thing, and most people only use the word jealousy for both things.

    Merriam Webster has an interesting paragraph on the page for jealousy about it: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jealousy

    You can also check the definitions of jealous and envious yourself, you'll see that one is defined through hostility of some sort.

    The nuance is usually clear through context no matter which word you use, though. But I think that when you use it in a generic manner like you did, using the right word is best.

    Jealousy and envy are not the same thing, although the nuance is subtle. What you're talking about is closer to envy. You can be envious of something or someone without the hostility that turns it into jealousy.
