Rest assured, the visibility of that statistic is very much in the minority. Feel free to look up the funding ratios for domestic violence against women and domestic violence against men. One third of the support won't even come close.

Didn't we just get over the coin mining hype? I'm not too confident there won't be another big thing to keep this going...
"There's this flaw with capitalism."
"No no, it's a feature!"
We have plenty of examples of this.
No Man's Sky came out to much fanfare, and was kind of shit. They took their massive profits (of which a significant chunk went to distributors, publishers, etc., just like back when physical copies were the norm) and used them to transform their initial offering into something that was far more like their vision than the original product.
Minecraft also followed this paradigm for a very long time.
Now, how many very successful game developers just took the money and ran? A lot? Yeah, a lot. The simple fact is not many companies are willing to spend already-earned profits for a fraction more sales.
Here's your proposal in a nutshell. "Can we have the rich and powerful impose laws on the rich and powerful to reduce the benefits that will have for their children?" And even if we could do that, you completely ignore the option of them just hiring tutors to train their kids (which is already done by some).
Not saying your goals are bad, perhaps a little misguided, and rely on the people that would be negatively impacted (by their perception) to make it happen.
No definition I've ever heard requires an exodus to be initiated by the people leaving. Also, if you read the comment that started all this, I was explicit that I didn't mean employee-led. So thanks for stopping by weeks later to display your ignorance and/or lack of reading comprehension.
I don't think it's that complicated. If he has security clearance, there are certain things he can't say. If he doesn't have it, he can complain all day long about how the Liberals are hiding information. The guy has been in the public sector since he graduated, there aren't too many secrets there.
Doesn't make jaywalking on a racetrack a brilliant idea.
The text says deficient in fat and carbohydrates. I'm pretty sure they mean it only happens when you don't have enough of either, not that carbs are an essential nutrient.
A 9v battery powered skateboard is viable if you pick the right combination of weight, speed, and distance. Doesn't mean it's going to change the world.
It's okay buddy, your definition of exodus was wrong. Just let it go.
As for the rest, I made a sarcastic comment based entirely on fact, they asked for proof of my statement, I gave them everything they needed to verify it. I'm sorry if my comment was too harsh for your sensibilities, but if that's the worst you've heard on Lemmy, them I'm glad for you.
