The Spanish translation doesn't make sense, seems to be made using the worst automated translator.

This is an old picture, so I'm assuming it was made when translations weren't fantastic yet.

Google translate says "If you need mom to feed you please cover thank you"

Hypersapien,

If you're going to use Google Translate, take the text it gives you and feed it back in to see if it translates back into English correctly.

That's one lucky baby

Oniume,

Bro, creepy, what the fuck

drmoose,

Oh please don't get bent out over a tittie joke lol

Oniume,

Sexualising breastfeeding a baby is weird man

drmoose,

If that's how you perceive the comment then you have your own problems to deal with. Peace ✌️

mouth_brood,

How else is the comment supposed to be perceived?

Stopwatch8200,

I thought it was funny, I saw it as: big boobs equals much milk. I normally don't like to shame people for their sense of humor. Of course, there are some exceptions.

100beep,

“this kid’s lucky to have a mother that’ll say ‘screw the rules, I need to take care of my kid’”

DimmedNeon,

It could have had that meaning had Dr. Moose not elucidated that he had made a tittie joke.

So I got a few reports based on this.

In the interest of transparency - I'm leaving this up for now because it's not illegal:

  • Sexualising the baby would be considered rule-breaking and the comment removed, but that isn't the case here
  • Sexualising the act of breastfeeding (which some people think this comment does - but it's not unanimous) is perhaps in poor taste, but not illegal in itself.
  • Expressing a preference for, uh, certain physical traits is fine, although that may again be viewed as creepy by some people.

As mod, I'll remove posts that are illegal, discriminatory or harassing, and this post doesn't meet those criteria. Regardless, the downvotes here should be a signal that some people find this distasteful.

Feel free to upvote/downvote this post if you agree or disagree. The decision above was made based on my own evaluation, but I'll use the vote spread on this comment as an indicator of whether the community prefers a stricter policy.

Are people just now discovering that Reddit has run on full censorship for a long time?

BubblyMango,

I just thought it was specific mods. Usually when i make reddit comments defending Israel they get silently deleted.

I like that we’re allowing images here instead of just text only.

Yeah this seems like an improvement to me.

Thank you, that's good to know!

young_broccoli,

For sure!

Ps: I spent like 30 seconds looking at the OP thinking "Where's the post?" before realizing.

This is often (but not always!) done at events where either the organizers, or the permitting government, suspects that people may use drugs and want to "discourage" such behavior.

TBH that just makes it more of a human rights violation.

I went to a club in NYC 20-ish years ago and they were selling bottled water for $6 a bottle (in 2001!) The bathrooms only had hot water so no one could refill. It was also quite hot in the main room. Scumbags.

How does restricting water stop people from taking drugs? I imagine people can still sniff cocaine or swallow a pill easily.

seeCseas,

Er... drinking water helps with consuming drugs?

buckykat,

Staying hydrated on molly/ecstasy is important

seeCseas,

huh, interesting.

so... they're denying everyone water to stop some people from getting high? still doesn't seem right to me tbh.

buckykat,

Well, that's because it isn't right. But this sort of backwards thinking is extremely common in anti drug policy.

The RAVE Act and crack house laws only punish organizers who knowingly allow drug use to happen at their events or premises...Rave organizers told Anderson that, as a result, they try to avoid looking like they're aware of drug use at their events...Some organizers don't even offer free bottled water to help prevent heat strokes, a potentially fatal side-effect of some drug use on the dance floor.

From Vox

young_broccoli,

How does not selling watter discourages drug use? Like, i get that some drugs can or must be diluted in watter, but I know you can get high on most things without it. What was their logic? Drugs bad :c Heatstroke yay c:!??

BrambleDog,

You are on the right track but it is more malicious than that.

The drug deals done in dance clubs is generally the clubs own product being sold. In every jurisdiction in the US essentially, establishments that serve alcohol are by law required to serve free water. If some suckers spend the $6 on water, cool, but otherwise, those water bottles are the best way to hide drug profits.

Ever wonder why DJs are spraying the crowd down with bottled water from the bar and it isn't just part of the clubs set design? They gotta get rid of the inventory.

Good. The rule is stupid and deserves to be worked around. Water is essential. I hate when I go to these kinds of public places and they give you no option to get water other than bringing it yourself. Poor logistics on the part of the event organizers.

rastilin,

I think these rules are intended to be malicious. If you want to make it hard for people to organize but just banning them is illegal, the next step is to just make it super uncomfortable for them to hang around, so, no water.

For real... do they want people dying??

CynAq,
@CynAq@kbin.social avatar

They want people to not be there, at least for long.

InfiniWheel,

Isn't that like the opposite of the purpose of big events like these?

CynAq,
@CynAq@kbin.social avatar

It doesn't look like the rule is from the event organizers. Most likely local government who want's the money from the event while keeping the turnover high so that people will come, spend their money, and fuck off as soon as possible.

c2h6,

I think it's more likely that the festival has other stalls selling water for a ridiculous markup.

dystop,
@dystop@lemmy.world avatar

The official reason for such rules are usually "we need a mix of vendors" or something like that.

The unofficial, true reason is usually that the organizer wants to be the only one selling water so they can sell it for $5.

sweeny, to memes in a clever title.
