    Feminism is cancer. And women have far more rights than men.

    Hahaha I doubt I'll ever have occasion to worry about feminists running out of things to complain about. Not as long as things like "manspreading" and thermostat settings in the office are considered worthy causes.

    Notice how the three women are so happy and comfortable being together? That would not happen if a man appeared. Feminism is a movement historically founded by men hating lesbians. It's as simple as that. They find men repulsive and want to be removed from them completely if possible and just be with each other.

    Women keep men out if workplace now and it's sad that this lady is lying saying women don't go to work because of periods and the pay gap has been disproven

    Nobody cares about your argument

  16. @mankiratsingh5748

    January 4, 2024 at 12:45 am

    Then tell me why it is not about

    -Equal deaths in war like men

    -Equal custody time for children

    -Equal home shelter for domestic violence done on men.

    -Equal study programs for men

    -Equal dangerous job as men (you want equal pay but you will not work in danger places like man do like Grounds maintenance)

    -Equal laws for men

    -Equality in family court for men

    -Equal health care facilities for men

    And why they presume that men are in power and dominate every thing.

    -the most hurting thing is
    in February 2014 in boko haram when islamists caught boys and girls in school they let the girls go home
    told them to get married renounce their sins to Allah.
    but all boys were burned to ASHES. and media describe it as local or villagers no one tweeted for them.
    and when girls abducted by islamists and sold in human market.
    there was this rage in mainstream and media #BRING_BACK_OUR_GIRLS
    People like Ellen DeGeneres, michelle obama and more tweeted
    But what about the boys aren't they human, innocent, o sorry they were boys, men no nothing for you
    you are rapist.
    -in first wave of feminism it was about equal right to vote, equal work rights, equal chance in which i believe also which was correct.
    but then came second, third and forth wave where all problems ware men, men, and just men.
    you feminist fight for like mansplaining, mankind are sexist words but none of you have ever talked about the equal rights for women in Muslim counties
    please stop this one sided arguments where women are victims and they are oppressed.
    -i don't hate women seriously but people like these degrade both women and men.

    This is a bunch of bullshit nearly 2020 & she’s talking bout pay gap 😂😂 yea women having kids , taking family vacation , soccer games , ballet classes doesn’t contribute to you spending less time at work & less time at work equals less pay 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️.
    Going to College & majoring in 15th Century art mite not pay tht well when you graduate. Where as most men major in more practical education or a trade tht earns money while still in school or right after graduation. (2ND) Maybe Women on their periods which can be super inconvenient and painful might just want to sit home a day or two. Society is not conspiring to make sure all women on their periods Stay home. This is freaking crazy on one hand “SOME” feminist hate men & on the other hand want to be just like them 🤔🤔

    I think the key is equality between women and men and to become it possible we have to focused on how to educate society properly. Of course, it means, giving education and information to be aware about the importance of that. But, becareful because it's not a subject, in my opinion, it's an attitude problem with have learn to manage from home and continue working at school and in our social community….

    "Feminismo es igualdad entre mujeres y hombres"
    Pero, dentro del mismo eje hay grupos de mujeres que desean excluir a los hombres y hombres que desean excluir a las mujeres, lo cual convierte el asunto en guerra de sexos. También, hay mujeres que se tratan mal entre si simismas y hombres que hacen lo mismo entre ellos.

    Además, hay partidos políticos que se aprovechan de la distorsión que existe en cuanto al mismo, para manipular la realidad según su conveniencia que casi siempre se trata de una actitud mezquina.

    En mi opinión:

    •El feminismo; es un asunto que hay que fomentar con el fin de concienciar a la sociedad mundial para que sea una herramienta útil y necesaria que ayude a desarrollar el conocimiento de la igualdad, pero desde la generosidad y el respeto hacia uno mismo y hacia los demás.

    •El machismo; es un tema que se debe tocar con la importancia que tiene y solventar de igual manera, porque es un virus que ataca sin pieda y pretende reclutar al completo a nuestra sociedad mundial. Haciéndonos súbditos del machismo cada vez que mostramos el monstruo de agresividad y de superioridad que sale de nuestro interior. Cuando es un falso amigo que está *("manipulando a gran parte de la humanidad dado la escasez que existe tanto en educación y conocimiento, como en información y formación del mismo")*.

    La clave es el último punto señalado, que debe ser puesto en práctica desde el hogar, los centros educativos y en el entorno social. No nos vayamos a equivocar creyendo o haciendo que los demás crean que ello es una asignatura, porque no lo es.

    I don't understand why some people are so mad when it doesn't concern you…. what's so WRONG with women saying they want females to be treated equally…everywhere. Literally HOW does that hurt you? Right.

Cyber Attack: Ransomware causing chaos globally – BBC News

Published

on



Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

Is this AI’s moment of truth? | BBC News

Published

on



A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.

Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.

At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.

So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?

AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.
