Poplar?
I hear the whispers of [email protected] call me, do you?
Jokes necessarily often leave behind details to work.
Here the whole joke is pointing out similarities we see are forced.
And besides, it’s obvious the author was intentionally being “wrong”, otherwise we’d be suggesting the author assumed the thought-experiment was monkeys who knew language, intentionally typing out great works. That’s a pretty useless situation to make up, it doesn’t suggest anything interesting.
You’re right, but it isnt trying to actually argue that, its a joke.

Yes a fair comparison.
Doesn’t necessarily have to do with conservatism. Not everyone wants to be randomly flashed without consent.
I did post it as a joke. Note how I started my comment with “I think their point is”, that isn’t my view :)
There’s also difference between pretending to miss for a joke that dividing things into quartiles necessarily means a bottom 25% exists (what the meme does). And noting that it’s weird failing people based on how they do compared to others and not if they actually actually learn (me suggesting what the user JackGreenEarth was probably trying to get at).

I think their point is that you could have people in the bottom quartile who learned what they are expected to, are capable, but are failed anyway because of how they compare to others.
(Assuming curved tests really work like that, never bothered reading the pretty long grading policies)
I imagine the downvoters assume the post is making a point about Muslims in general, which it isn’t.
It isn’t Islamophobic thinking Muslims are transphobic, they are. Much like most of the world outside the West.
They really shouldn’t have omitted in the title that it’s rejected asylum seekers they want to repatriate.
If posts were signed, it wont matter what instance youre posting from since your identity would be tied to your public key and not the account on a Mastodon/lemmy/etc server.
Thats more decentralized. It helps when you get banned, a server shuts down etc.
So I forgot I made this post. Seeing a notification with your comment was … something.
You replied to my comment on this case of CP so I thought you were referring to the child protection law. I made a snarky reply because it looked like you were obviously wrong, sorry about that.
That wasn’t cherry-picking, it was to show how there have been holes in the child protection law and they have been fixed. There isn’t some evil attempt at keeping these issues open.
Also if law is all there is to preventing rape, why does India have a lower recorded rate of rape than many developed european countries and the united states? Because there is a lot more to it, like social factors. E.g would you report a rape if it would bring shame and no longer being a virgin would make it difficult to get married?
See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_statistics under “by country” then sort by decreasing order the tab for “Rate per 100,000 population”.
The country that passed a new law on child protection to cover holes like the penal code not covering male child sexual abuse, is trying to keep the holes open?
The same one that overturned a case where a hole in the child protection law allowed abusing minors so long as there was no skin-to-skin contact. And instead now the law is interpreted to cover that case? Source
I’d be surprised if conservative India with its many poor regions didn’t have a bad rate of rape, but why think India is particularly bad, enough to call it a backwater? Need some sources on that.
And that user using absolute numbers instead of the rate of rape really gives away them being clueless about this.
Forget “30 or 13”, the kid should be posted on “90 or 9”.
