Teresa Teng is basically the symbol of the end of that era, though I think most of her songs are stupid lol

that was also the same era when premarital sex could get yourself executed

I mean pops musics like that are stupid but still they do have a history of being censored in China before near 1985 or so though, so I'm always very sensitive to any suggestions to censor anything like that

Do we ban playing incel-pop* in earshot of kids?

No. This is partly because of our societies' values about censorship, but perhaps more fundamentally, it's because the people who want to impose censorship DON'T ACTUALLY DEEM THESE HARMS TO BE HARMS. They love teaching kids their deplorable values.

Banning or ID-gating porn isn't about stopping any harms. It's a power play.

(*) I define "incel-pop" as any pop music with themes like "you should dump your bf and be with me because I'm a nice guy", "nobody else would treat you as good as I do", etc.

Things #musl libc will never do (broad but not comprehensive):

- Nag you to update.
- Phone home to check it if should nag you to update.
- Tell you a CVE can't be fixed without updating to the latest version.
- Try to force you to switch from glibc to musl.
- Get other software you depend on dependent on musl.
- Rant against "wokeness" or "DEI".
- Integrate "AI" into your libc.
- Give you up.
- Let you down.

Addendum to "things #musl libc will never do":

- Request your age, date of birth, or proof of identity or attempt to report it to applications.

maybe that's why sanitary napkins are still not provided on many trains even if that could actually be profiting for them as they can sell them overpriced (just like food and water)

"She is too scared to use her real name, or allow the school to be named. She fears that the school will try to take legal action against her and does not want to become a public figure, where she worries she may be targeted. Considering the abuse levelled at librarians in the USA for defending their collections, she may have a point."

I'm witnessing in action how a trans boy I know online is being massively misgendered by xiaohongshu "feminists" for saying not everyone who has periods is a woman

funny how when its about trans women they would treat the label "woman" as something "holy" to be "defended" but they are so willing to give that "holy" label to someone who is not one at all
