  • I'm using boost and boost for lemmy tells me I have 5 new replies/messages. Unfortunately, they're not there, so I assume a mod or user itself deleted the comment before I could read it, but the unread messages number never went down

  • And the original plan for country X was to do Y but since it never happened, it's irrelevant and people almost never speak of it, except when it suddenly fits their narrative, no matter how stupid/disconnected it is

    In other news, USSR and Gulag is exactly the comparison you were actually looking for, but no, gotta always use "nazis" because of how catchy it is to you guys

  • ..dude, I literally talked about what happened, not what was theoretized. Do you have any idea how brutally evil things have US or other countries theoretized? Thinking and doing are two very, VERY different things. Didn't know this needs explaining.

  • Nazis wanted to kill them all, not move them further away. It's of course a shitty thing to do, but I'm getting kinda annoyed by how often people use nazis as an example for something when they were far more evil than anything that exists today, essentially downplaying or borderline normalizing nazis because of how commonly it's now used for real life examples.

  • Are all molecules "wet" with air, then?

    If we come up with a definition for this process, then yes, why not.

    A "wet" towel will feel damp and watery to a person picking it up in a way almost indistinguishable from water itself, and this is enough to say that both are wet.

    But you see, if I ask you for a wet towel, it will sound normal. If I'd ask you for wet water, I'd look mentally questionable

  • Well fire has a specific definition of something being oxidized, so does being wet.

    Which is still a definition for a state (or process/chemical reaction). Something that causes the state/reaction (like oxygen, salt and water on metal) cannot be a state in itself, therefore the logic tells me water in itself cannot be wet as it's not reacting with something else

  • Saying water is wet because it touches water sounds like "Fire is on fire because it touches fire". It just sounds fundamentally illogical as you're talking about a state of matter, not the matter itself.

    I'm not a scientist, just throwing in my view on this

  • If you're referring to "gut wrenching feeling", then that's still part of solitude as some people simply enjoy being alone to the point having someone around is a gut wrenching feeling
