what’s the coat hanger?
A symbol for back-alley abortions. Dangerous, painful, and scary, representing some of the most important reasons why legal abortion is necessary. One assumes the slash through it means “abortion should not be illegal”, but I have to admit it’s not the clearest symbol in the bunch.
Whats the letter A?
Anarchism. The circle-A drawn like that (without the lines extending beyond the circle) is how it’s traditionally drawn.
i don’t understand how most of lemmy is pro-communist but also pro-anarchist at the same time
Anarchism and communism are 95% the same in regards to goals. They just have different views on how to get there, that differ very little or a lot depending on the specific sub ideology, of which there are many. The 5% with different goals are some anarchist tendencies which want to keep markets and money, like mutualism. Everyone else wants a stateless, moneyless and classless society where people contribute according to their ability and receive according to their need on the basis of mutual aid. And no, “anarcho”-capitalism is not a thing, that’s an oxymoron.
when i read fuzzy memory i thought it was a complementary concept to fuzzy logic and asked myself why on earth you would want your stored data to be fuzzy.
