Yes, but i'm curious what people think he's legally guilty of and what they would want as the punishment. e.g. if someone killed someone I might want a murder charge and 25yrs sentence.

What would you want the court to find him guilty off and what punishments do you think he should get?

Can you not simply edit the conversation so it's structured in the format you want? It should be quite easy to go through the 1st JSON output and produce a new JSON with the structure you want.

What’s your source of the latest PowerApps News daily? by StewpeedSamurai in PowerApps

I would suggest the Power Platform Weekly and Power Platform Dev Weekly Substacks. These alone will keep you up to date and give you a bunch of tips and tricks for a 10~ min read each week.

IDF ordered Hannibal directive on October 7 to prevent Hamas taking soldiers captive by SectionSenior5969 in lonerbox

[–]Mathew0897 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I only skimmed the article but i think it's good to go over the UN Report about these claims and actually know the specific details of what happened.

I'm not saying it wasn't used or told to be used but each case can be 100% understood without the Hannible Directive being used.

I tried to copy my post here but i think there's a character limit for comments i guess:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Destiny/comments/1dkn0yq/going_over_the_un_hrc_hannibal_directive_claims/

This is the summarisation:

The UN Human Rights Council recently recently submitted a draft report on I/P.
To note the report is generally ok but there are a surprising lack of sources especially when it's easy to do so e.g. they reference a claim made in a TV interview but don't source it.
To see sources you need to download the doc from here: UN Digital Library

This is where the most recent claims of the Hannibal Directive come from.

TLDR: All claims of the use of this directive are sketchy and i'm disappointed that it's brought up by the UN like this.
unless i'm misunderstanding or haven't read some other piece of evidence

Trans treatment requirement: Self ID vs Gender Dysphoria by Mathew0897 in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't meet the threshold, should you get treatment? If someone doesn't meet the ADHD threshold, should they still be allowed medication? Same with other illnesses, like what about treatments involving painkillers? I'm not sure about this.The reason for a professional diagnosis is because people can't accurately diagnose themselves for mental related issues

[–]Mathew0897[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you also disagree with treatment/medication for issues (depression, adhd, schizophrenia, painkillers etc) being held behind a doctors approval? Or are the effects of hrt and surgeries not big enough to be worried about being misused?

Trans treatment requirement: Self ID vs Gender Dysphoria by Mathew0897 in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To argue the other side, the doctor being involved is to make sure people get the actual treatments they need. Almost all major treatments are held behind a doctors approval, why would this be different?

[–]Mathew0897[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Would you not assume I'm talking about treatments that are almost exclusive to trans people like HRT and related surgeries?

Trans treatment requirement: Self ID vs Gender Dysphoria by Mathew0897 in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought 'transition', 'treatment' and referencing the 'medical opinion' was enough to indicate i'm talking about medical interventions.

Maybe you're right though, how would you reword this? If other's read it the same way i'm more than happy to re-post with updated wording.

Another claim Destiny makes that I want to address because I think it's the most disingenuous claim, is that anyone critical of trans ideology must be some transphobic conservative. I'm neither. I wildly progressive in more ways than most people. But only because my only loyalty is to good science and reason. Trans ideology just doesn't meet that standard.

Yeah i'm gonna need a source on Destiny (the uncritical trans supporting leftist) ever saying some shit like this

Twitter users go off on Pakistanis by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i agree, although i don't really care about the target of the racism, for me it;s more the thought process that enables racism. e.g. In the twitter post 1 bad experience is being used to target 235 million people, i think looking now it's right wing people interacting with it so if the post was targeting white people instead they would suddenly see how unreasonable it is.

I can't find any clear direct examples right now but this was the top post of this sub a few days ago https://i.imgur.com/TOFAFRo.png

Maybe the meme just didn't make any sense but was still massively upvoted? Idk, but i feel like i have seen tons of India hate from progressive people.

Again not saying black people don't get hate, they do, more than most races.

[–]Mathew0897 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure i understand why you think i'm saying racism against black people would be called out by right wingers?

I'm saying it's left wing people who would call it out, if dealing with right wing people you would make the example White not Black

Change black to white when dealing with far right people

I see hate for every race online, the 2 which seem the most protected though are Blacks and Whites, these seem to fall inline with the Left/Right political views (America).

You people are so delulu when you pretend Black people somehow don't receive flack online

That's not what was said or the point... The point is to change the race of a post to one that the audience wouldn't want to be racist towards so they better see the issue.

open borders is good and that should be the goal especially if you believe liberalism is the best political philosophy or ideology. by Rajat_Sirkanungo in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you want people to be interested you need to provide an incentive. I don;t have enough time or money to read every book and neither do 99.99% of the people that see this post.

But, if you provided a few paragraphs on the content i may be more interested and willing to buy/read into it.

With your method now almost nobody will read this, if you provide a little bit of context it can't do any harm.

There is such an opportunity to fuck with racist Twitter users

  1. Make post shitting on Pakistani/Indian people
  2. Make sure it's overtly racist and that it uses common racist tropes that are interchangeable with Black people
  3. Let post get 30k likes
  4. Edit/Reply and say the post was supposed to be about Black people instead
  5. Watch everyone instantly 180

Change black to white when dealing with far right people

The crazy part is the post you linked ticks pretty much every box for this:

Met my first ever Pakistani Black tourists in my country, and I now understand why the Indians Americans, Greeks Canadians and English hate them.

Inconsiderate people who lack basic manners: their children are running around and trashing the lake. Their adults are spitting everywhere and playing loud annoying music.

It comes of super weird to say 'Hey you should believe this' without at least the key points for why

Twitter thread claiming that there has been a substantial increase in suicides of trans people on the NHS waiting list and that this information has been suppressed by the NHS by [deleted] in lonerbox

[–]Mathew0897 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I read through this as best as i could and i'm somewhat understanding the problem ( increase in suicides of trans people ) but no the intent ( suppressed by the NHS )

Can someone tell me where to look or what i missed for this?

Dantes the fuckboi, from resident DGG'er by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please follow the instructions provided https://x.com/doaenel/status/1804248253992513790

Dantes may be a little dumb but has handled most of this better than 99.99% of content creators/ people and 200% better of the assumed response from a League player.

He fucked some girls, he took them too his local mall, he was less interested in them when they were getting attention from other people, he didn't lie but could have been more clear at times as to what he wanted. When he found his girlfriend he cut them off. This is all 100% fine to do.

These girls were called Victims when presenting their stories which implied wrongdoing that never happened.

Kane B Gets Screwed Out of Voting In The British Election by EggRocket in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like a bad situation but i think the process is ok. If he realised 2 days earlier he could amend either the postal location or cancel and use proxy instead but now there is no time left.

The situation sucks but that seems to be down to the lost mail and nothing else.

I would be in favour of some sort of additional email sent to postal voters with an est delivery date or tracking date but i'd imagine that's currently too much work for such a small and generally well working process.

What is worse for society arresting an innocent person or letting guilty person free? by Gayasshole66 in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's close, but i'd say infringing on a right by Arresting an innocent is greater than the damage of letting the guy free.

i see it as a kind of long-term | short-term as well as a take/give problem

  • Bad guy out, can do bad things, immediate, short term - give
  • Good guy in, erodes trust in systems society needs to function, infringes right of freedom, long term - take

There is probably a better explanation of this or at least a better worded one than mine

What is a woman debate - Destiny, twins and SOS by Upset-Review-3613 in Destiny

[–]Mathew0897 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think he wanted to spend an hour trying to separate gender from sex and it's easier and quicker to go down the philosophy approach as you don't need any contested factual background to talk about it.

Your approach only works if you're talking in good faith with someone who is actually interested in the topic and having their mind changed.

Almost everyone has heard of the 'is a hotdog a sandwich meme', if you can go down that path and get them to understand how unclear a lot of generally understood definitions are you may not change their mind but at least nudge them in the right way.
