    My 15-year-old relative was killed for refusing to marry her cousin. My family celebrated by dancing in the street in c/world@lemmy.world

    You do realize that "Christianity bad" doesn't mean that "Islam bad" is false, right?

    Both can be true at once.

    I will however dispute that it is a question of extremism. The fact is that a majority of muslims, globally, hold views that I would consider to be misogynistic (feel free to update me on that if there is a more recent global study with the same scope).

    If something is the norm in a group rather than a fringe idea, it can hardly be considered extremism. Given that Islam has many of these misogynistic values close to its' core, it isn't particularly shocking either.

    As such, considering the above, I consider Islam to be bad on the whole. Note: this doesn't mean that someone is inherently "bad" due to being muslim, or that "good" muslims don't exist - I am acquainted with a few.

    Några rader om Fediverse punk month (mcdn.podbean.com)
     

    cross-posted from: https://aggregatet.org/post/2840053

    Några rader om ’Fediverse punk month’ höra i senaste Döda katten. Här är vad som skickades in:

    ’Fediverse punk month’ är en kampanj som uppmanar punkare att testa fediversum under Januari månad 2026 från the Counter force. Bakgrund är att mycket information om evenemang, musiksläpp eller nya band släpps främst i kommersiella och stängda plattformar som ägs av Big Tech företag från USA. T.ex. Instagram eller Discord. Det här är övervakningsplattformar som berikar miljardärer och fångar oss i beroendeframkallande algoritmer. Fediversum är ett alternativ till stängda sociala medier som drivs i linje med punkens kärnvärden: Det är öppen, autonomt, decentraliserat och drivs DIY utan att kunna ägas av en enda person eller företag. Eftersom det inte finns beroendeframkallande algoritmer är det också mer hälsosamt. Kampanjen uppmanar dig inte att säga upp ditt Instagramkonto eller stänga ner Discord idag, även om vissa av oss redan gjort det. Istället uppmanar den till att testa Fediversum. Social media vi gör själva gör vi också tillsammans, därför uppmanas punkare att ta med sina vänner in i de öppna rummen på internet. Några bra ingångar för punkare kan vara: Kamratdataföreningen Konstellationens Mastodoninstans Spejset eller anarkistiska kolektiva.social Forumet Punken är död – Länge leve punken aggregatet.org/c/punk Konstellationens Zine Kamratdata

    Ramhäll's gruva - en gammal järngruva i Uppland (feddit.nu)

    Ramhäll's mine was opened after finding iron ore in the area in 1742 and was ran in one form or another until 1975, when it was closed.

    Here is more information about the place from the local history society (Swedish, but with more pictures):

    Is Winnie the Pooh considered "racist" now or are .ml folks using it as an excuse to defend Xi Jin Ping? (lemmy.world)
     

    In all the years I've been around, both on the internet & among friends and acquaintances from Asia (incl. Taiwan & China), WtP has been a symbol of resistance against Xi Jin Ping and authoritarianism in China.

    I know .ml is heavily tankie in general, but just need a double check from the more reasonable parts of the internet.

    TIL that Sir Nicholas Winton helped rescue 669 Czhechoslovak children from the holocaust (lemmy.world)
     

    Whilst watching a movie (and looking things up on wikipedia after).

    More than 350'000 jews lived in Czechoslovakia before WW2. Approximately 18'000 children were sent to death camps, of which fewer than 200 survived. Meanwhile, this man helped save 669 children.

    For comparison, approximately 7'000 jewish people live in Czechia and Slovakia today.

    All smoking should be banned in all public spaces (lemmy.world)
     

    It smells terribly, exposes others to negative health effects without consent and is one of the biggest causes of littering. Simply put it is a major nuisance with no benefits apart from profits for the tobacco/drug industry and addicts getting their high.

    Could probably extend that to anywhere around minors in general too.
