  • If someone shoots an officer ordering war crimes that is justice, and probably why they don’t allow military members to be tired by public courts. They would almost certainly be acquitted.

    Honestly I like how the constitution says everyone without exception is allowed a jury trial, but we just pretend that it’s okay for the military to not follow that. Like sure now they are volunteers, but conscription has a long history. It’s kinda fucked up when you think about it, and definently unconstitutional

    Maybe it would be wise for an instance to incorporate as a non-profit of some kind. I believe a designation exists for “social clubs”.

    That way there’s less pressure on admins and less worry of facing personal consequences if someone posts something illegal on their instance since then the LLC or local equivalent would be liable.

    I doubt an instance would ever have the funds but it could even theoretically allow for a paid admin.

    I know it sounds like we’re reinventing the “big” internet again, but i don’t see it being an issue. I don’t see a world where lemmy could generate that level of profit. In this case an LLC would be about gaining legal protections only
