Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

I swear so many people are actual psychopaths and just good at hiding it.
A lot of people aren't even good at hiding it, their traits are just seen as virtues in our modern capitalist society
Couldn't agree more. Lack of empathy seems to be a requirement to get to the top.
The idea that you can climb at all is a myth. The psychopaths start at the top and stay there.
Sounds like the Internet in a nutshell
what always stand out to me every time I come across this story is the person who took the gun away
Yeah it seemed the audience divided into attackers and protectors.
Genuinely a very interesting story.
I think it really proves the act as art to me. Feels like a definite statement, intentional or not
The authorities should recreate this act to use as a honeypot to identify all the psychos in society.
You can start for free by testing all the middle-managers.
We already have systems in place to funnel ask the sociopaths into positions where they can be monitored by everyone. It's called capitalism and politics.
And do what? Being a psycho isn't illegal in itself.
Assault is, and much of what was done to her would qualify.
Is it still assault if it's consensual?
Most likely. For example you can't consent to allowing someone to kill you - see the case where a man agreed to be killed and eaten by someone else.

The man who killed him was ultimately convicted.
We're talking about the things that happened in that performance though, not killing someone.
What the fuck. Like I'd throw some paint at her or draw something funny on her but my god.
Wait was the gun fake or real
