Lol they banned discussion of jury nullification despite the fact that they have no reason to so their constant complaining about ml is moot

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Hmm, no. I have many posts and comments regarding jury nullification and Luigi in general even in .world communities and not a single has been removed. .world is based on Denmark iirc and per Denmark law, it's illegal to discuss jury nullification in regards to future crime, but not crime already committed

So in Denmark, "Let's do [crime] and then we can get people on our side to do jury nullification" is illegal, but "Person did [crime] but I think their actions were justified, so let's do jury nullification" is not.

I wasn't so lucky. I didn't even post about jury nullification. Just a Luigi reference.

Which is why their TOS prohibits all discussion relating to it lol

Nope. I'm not sure which but I'm 100% certain that it's based in either Canada or the US

per Denmark law, it's illegal to discuss jury nullification in regards to future crime

No such law here either. Just like in the US, it might lead you to not being selected, but it's not illegal.

Let's do [crime] and then we can get people on our side to do jury nullification" is illegal

True, but it's only the "let's do crime that's (conditionally) illegal. The mention of jury nullification doesn't make it any more or less illegal to probably and knowingly advocate crime.

Anyway, since that kind of thing is EXTREMELY difficult to prove, it's exceedingly rare that anyone gets punished for that particular crlme, making your point a moot one.

In conclusion: I feel completely safe in stating the truth that when the law and the systems it protects is unjust, the just break the law and others should try and help them avoid undue or excessive punishment in Denmark.

Ig I was thinking about Finland or something, but it certainly isn't Canada or the US, we all thought it was based in Canada or US lol

Huh. I sit corrected about that part, I guess 🤷

No other instances need to make feud posts about .world because the natural behavior of the mods and users does a good enough job to drive people out.

No marketing campaign needed.
