Okay, my initial reading of these numbers were that the Americas must be shit at accepting people, then I did a short wiki dive and it has this:

Jus soli in many cases helps prevent statelessness.[11] Countries that have acceded to the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness are obligated to grant nationality to people born in their territory who would otherwise become stateless persons.[12][a] The American Convention on Human Rights similarly provides that “Every person has the right to the nationality of the state in whose territory he was born if he does not have the right to any other nationality.”[11]

And now I’m thinking maybe the numbers are so low in a good way?


Dude this is sick! I’ve grown up my whole life in the US and never realized how many other countries do this. Wikipedia has an incredible map: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jus_soli


is there a community for finding communies?
Is there a place I can go on lemmy where I can say "is there a community/magazine that has people's weird ideas they thought of in the shower" and if anyone knows of a place they'll point you to it?

Im in the same shoes. I decided to try jeroba and realized it was totally different posts from my kbin. A lot I couldn’t even find between servers. I have an account on kbin.social and lemmy.world now. I’m finding I have more fun on lemmy.world, but like the (non-jeroba) UI of kbin better.


Y’all are the only ones that use the term. The onus is on you to produce a workable definition that can be written down without changing the definition when it’s convenient.

I’m willing to accept the definition Ron desantis’ lawyer used:

During the testimony, Warren’s attorney, Jean-Jacques Cabou asked those within DeSantis’ administration what “woke” meant to them.

The governor’s general counsel, Ryan Newman, said, in general, it means “the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.” He added that DeSantis doesn’t believe there are systemic injustices in the country, reports Florida Politics.

Do you not have an overlapping fundamental agreement with your partner about how the world works and what’s moral values are most important?

Like you’re not gonna agree on everything I know, but “are some people inherently better than others, should a justice system focus on punishment or rehabilitation, is education valuable for society, was the earth created by evolution or God, do you want kids(+ a couple questions if “yes”)” are, in my mind, things you need to agree on with the person you intend to share your life with.


I think we run in different crowds. One of my friends once confessed to making out with a trumpster, didn’t even go further. It was considered a point of shame and we made fun of him the rest of the night. I firmly stand by my role in reaffirming sanctions.


As a us person, I think that’s true. I have WhatsApp exclusively to talk to my friends that live abroad


I prefer android’s ability to customize my phone to the point that I can break it, but I respect apples security and can see why some people would prioritize that


We just need to be better about simplifying the explanation. Don’t tell people “it’s a federated website using an activitypub backend to communicate like mastodon, but only links to federated lemmys not including mastodon instances…” Tell them “it’s a fourm that shares posts and comments with other fourms that agree to work together”. If they want more detail they can easily find it themselves.
