a well forged play of words

I agree with you that problematic statues/symbols should be displayed in museums with the goal of teaching people about mistakes of the past. I mostly take an issue with the public display of stuff like that

On the One Ring: The issue is that it itself has a nature which cannot be change, cannot be harvested without the wielder being corrupted. And any value it might have had is greatly outweighed by the danger it poses

it's proprietary and thus not viable for any privacy conscious person. (assuming they know to trust as few third parties as possible)

Welcome to Capitalism! 🙃🙃

lmao

the whole quote for context:

The IRA claimed responsibility the next day, and said that it would try again. Its statement read:

Mrs. Thatcher will now realise that Britain cannot occupy our country and torture our prisoners and shoot our people in their own streets and get away with it. Today we were unlucky, but remember we only have to be lucky once. You will have to be lucky always. Give Ireland peace and there will be no more war.

unfortunately

hmmm that's unfortunate. But yeah, Liftoff has provided me with the most pleasing and stable experience so far. (Even if some of the features present in other clients and especially in the webapps are missing. Like showing the downvotes for example or the handling of multiple accounts and timelines in a weird way as well as liking too much to leemy.world...)

have you tried liftoff?

always has been (in terms of economics)

oh come on, please don't use words like that

good one. Smth else that I find quite funny as well: ppl from the US equating "America" with "USA" as if they are somehow more important than two literal continents

those are the effects of liberal capitalism

could be the case, ppl from the USA often assume they are the center of the universe for whatever reason

ah, I misinterpreted your comment then. afaik a lot of civilian infrastructure was destroyed by the allied bombings over all of Germany, but they were largely justified to an extent and ofc not without purpose. tho the destruction of industry - which is an important war goal - is often framed as "bombing of civilians"

it's about the percentage of income paid, not the net sum

you are correct and that is what all those economic theories boil down to tbh

just fyi: I'm well aware that the bombings hit many civillian targets and not actually advocating for the validity of those. It's mostly a shitpost and dunk on hitlerite fascists, seeing how they destroyed virtually all of eastern Europe

real work means creating value/efficiency/services where there was none before and not researching how you can syphon off that value in the best way
