          Then there is your answer:

          You see the whole article, others don’t. Publishers sometimes decide by your IP, your location etc. if you are allowed to read it freely (also putting rate limits up, so if enough people in your vicinity already saw it you will hit the paywall reasoning that you are already interested and more willing to pay). Or they simply put up the paywall later based on how popular an article is.

          Or in short: a lot of new links have paywalls because the people posting something didn’t even know there was one.

          PS: many people regularly clicking news from all over the world also often have addons, plugins and filters running that circumvent a lot of those paywalls automatically, so we sometimes tend to forget about them…

      I believe that saying you are explicitly providing a way to get around a paywall is technically against the rules of this community or instance because the mods/admins don’t want to be taken down for copyright stuff

      However, if the above article doesn’t seem to be loading correctly for you for some mysterious reason (e.g. who knows, perhaps there’s some networking problem or a server outage somewhere), then it’s perfectly fine for me to offer you an archive mirror to help you workaround this purely technical issue - https://archive.is/s0EUX

    Weird since they were only focused on taking white farm owners land. So when did diversity become part of the conversation?

      White farm owners who’s families y’know, showed up, killed the natives, and took the land for themselves.

        So early 1900’s the land was stolen. Then farmers produced product for locals and possible exports. Then said okay we are taking your land without compensation because your great grand parents stole this land?

            Crime has existed for as long as man has walked earth. Some things are stolen and never get returned. This is a strange concept. Due to early 1900s your great ancestors stealing land. We are stealing the land back from you without giving you compensation.

            They are doing the exact action that happened over 100 years ago. So nothing was learned?

              Ok, but that didn’t answer my question. I’m thinking of going on a crime spree and stealing a bunch of things. When is it no longer considered stolen?
