Tell me, where is this global language where it has 3.5 billion speakers, if not half? You've indicated it's not the case...?

Do you think I ask in bad faith, or do you ask in bad faith?

Did they negotiate directly with the Palestinians in 1948 and arrive on the agreement to share the land according to the borders that existed before 1967? [ Does solving the issue by war count?

Well, ykw, agree to disagree... I'll kill the convo right here, I'm sorry...

1st, I don't think it takes a person to know that what Israel's mitliary is doing in Gaza that the U.S supports, quacks like a humanitarian crisis akin to genocide, regardless of whether you agree or not. The article indicates that

It doesn't take facts to know that these are bad optics, mon liberal ami...

2nd, lemme tell you this... if the Saudis dealt with Yemenis and couldn't bomb them out of existence and cause famine, why do you think an overstretched U.S army can deal with them?

Can't they finish their Ukraines and Israels before Yemen?

decrying experienced political institutions as corrupt while claiming to be a reformer.

Someone can just see a theoretical event happening like that and just write and TITLE the news as:

Man leads a pro-democracy movement against corrupt one-party-rule and its institutions...

That being said, scapegoating an outgroup is indeed a demagoguery...

Do you take me for bad-faith arguer?

Tbf, western tourists kinda be like that tho...

meat crayons

Now, that's a colorful right there

Mental hospital : Napoleon factory (credit to Robert Heinlein)

Why wouldn't we want more Napoleons tho?

They’re both negative. Scapegoating an outgroup is another form of demagoguery, so is decrying experienced political institutions as corrupt while claiming to be a reformer.

Pardon me if I find this confusing but this seems to be case of "There's actually zero difference between bad and good things." without context...

Have you fully thought through your words to type this out? 😔

What's the other?

I mean come on, demagoguery and populism shouldn't be subsects of each other... they practically are synonymous, but one has a more neutral connotation...

You mean demogogery?

Catholics are Christians, but Christians are not necessarily Catholic. For example, Orthodox Christians are not Catholic. Being Catholic requires, at the bare minimum, agreement with the Holy See and implicitly the dogma he endorses. Even this “minor” difference can be used to find non-Catholic Christians.

I know that, but if you ask me, it's like saying Sunni and Muslim, one kinda emphasizes, if not "otherizes" (orientalize or occidentalize) the other... usually in a not good way...

In what part of being not Isis anyway?

Then why are you here then? Go complain to @dessalines@lemmy.ml directly...

I thought this political activity was another purpose of lemmy.ml, besides FOSS?

Aye, go vote for your life, my bon sir....

Hitlerites...

I won't give em the term...

Hasn't America mostly been a pure-bourgeois settler-colonialist society, based on the subjugation and genocide of natives and then slaves?

Even without that, it has stored many an anti-communist emigre population

That's why for every IWW you have, you got 2 Knights of Labor-like and AFL-like organizations that want to keep the bare scraps from their ruling western capitalists while simultaneously dividing the working class and other progressive forces.... it's by design

Not to mention, the unequal exchange of the Global South... read Jason Hickel if you want to know why historically the West's labor force aren't necessarily in solidarity with the Global South/3rd world

For example,

Our results indicate that most of the North’s excess consumption (58% of it) is sustained by net appropriation from the global South; without this appropriation, material use in high-income nations would be much closer to the sustainable level.

As I say to you, there cannot be socialism with anti-imperialism...

A true post-western left or progressivism must oppose western-dominated neoliberalism, neo-conism (hawkish foreign policy), and cultural reaction of bigotry that seeks to uphold this all.... (orientalism included)

Don't just simply vote... use their rules against them...

Modern right-libertarians are just the right-wing of liberalism taken to their most extreme, specifically in their propertarianism, especially in a settler colonial society like U.S, Australia, Northern Ireland, and Israel....

I call them right libertarians because the term "libertarian" has been co-opted to hell by them

“One gratifying aspect of our rise to some prominence is that, for the first time in my memory, we, ‘our side,’ had captured a crucial word from the enemy . . . ‘Libertarians’ . . . had long been simply a polite word for left-wing anarchists, that is for anti-private property anarchists, either of the communist or syndicalist variety. But now we had taken it over...”

Thanks, but my project requires also the results between the first and the last year the investment was increased...

As a base, I'm testing $600, 5% interest, and 6 years to wait, so I need to show the amount for years 1-5 as output, before I see final result of the 6th year...

I can't just put:

total1 = principle * pow((1 + rate/100), 1)

print(f"Balance after {1} year/s: ${total1:.2f}")

total2 = principle * pow((1 + rate/100), 2)

print(f"Balance after {2} year/s: ${total2:.2f}")

total3 = principle * pow((1 + rate/100), 3)

print(f"Balance after {3} year/s: ${total3:.2f}")

Well, I was trying to learn in g-10, at the start (when I was in-class, not online) , I had some previous computer classes before (I did Virtual Basics and Scratch, html even) but I didn't do Python (and this is supposed to be an intro, regardless of previous experience) ... wtf you expect me to do?

Plus, why do you assume this of me?
