it can happen. especially in California, because they have the population size to motivate health providers and pharma companies to negotiate.

it’s not likely in the short term with the way the system is. and the problem which prevents it is not the economics nor legislative lack of will.

it’s the insurance companies’ lobbying and political campaign contributions. many many California legislators’ campaigns are funded by insurance companies. and historically there has been a lot of corruption in the state’s insurance regulator agency.

also the state’s population , for some reason, are easily swayed by political ads in certain issues. like the car-share/delivery gig drivers proposition. i think they flip flopped in successive referendums. apologies if in wrong in that.

the law is not banning all sex for <18. Notice how its <18 AND age difference.

same age pair , no matter how young, would not face any criminal charges. (one set of parents might file a lawsuit against the other parents, but that could happen at any age)

under 18 + 3 year age gap + sex = statutory rape in many US States and many countries

considering this and @Die4Ever@programming.dev’s comment, could it incentivize certain types of prospective Admins to create community only instances, increasing attraction of more users to lemmy overall but disproportionally burden the user management workload on the traditional user+community instances?

that sounds like a few different, but related sets of behaviors that u-tube psychologists regularly mention

• obsessive compulsiveness
• narcissism
• anxious attachment style
• equating mistakes/perfection ratio with p self-worth, worthiness to exist/to receive love

researchers actually succeeded in creating that phone system upgrade. the resulting communication system is the internet and world wide web.

hooray! you got what you wished for!

So my understanding from reading this (and other threads on Lemmy) is that:

-A majority of Lemmy users would rather the userbase remained small (in comparison to corporate social media and even compared to Mastodon).

-And a small but vocal minority wants to grow Lemmy to the point of being at least one of the choices, if not the de facto preferred alternative, on the mind of most Redditors who are sick of Reddit.

Is that accurate?
