How the hell is this not banned already?!

But skeletons do have teeth. So OP is technically correct

Seems like incorrect link, links to the picture

I've had F-Droid since it's inception and got no clue why others don't use it

I'll tell you - average user just doesn't know about it. And doesn't know the benefits.

I shit you not, I heard both of these mentioned as potential AI uses on one introductory AI training at work.

Not back to back so unfortunately it wasn't a joke.

I mean... technically, yes, we all do good and bad stuff.

But you can't say Hitler was a good person just because he was against animal cruelty. I don't think any person out there is cartoonishly evil to a point they never did anything good - that doesn't make those evil persons not evil.

In that case... go fuck yourself!

Good news - they are indeed making a sequel

Yeah. I have it wishlisted for a likely later purchase but getting this message public seems like a self-fulfilling prophecy. People might be more cautious buying into it now. I know I am

Great many of them stuck around. They are just not quite the same as they once were

Dwight?

There seemsn to be a misunderstanding. What I tried to say wasn't "Hitler is not bad, because Stalin was also bad". What I tried to say is Hitler was bad and so was Stalin. Each in their own way. And neither of them should be glorified.

Gulag is the russian word for prison. It's just really easy to make foreign words scary to racists.

While I'm not Russian, bu accusing a Slav of being racist against Slavs sure is hillarious.

I didn't quite intend to put gulags and concentration camps on the same level. But there are some similarities, like being used to disappear political or ideological oponents.

It's important that you visit memorials erected to in the memory of the Victims of Communism, sometimes there are hundreds of names there

We don't have such monuments over here. But I know for a fact that communist regime in my country inprisoned or persecuted also members of the nazi resistance movement as well as soldiers fighting the nazis abroad. I have no issues with actual nazis getting punished for what they did.

You will note I never denied nazi crimes in any of my comments. I just don't deny communist crimes either.

Clearly. And I'm aware these are not on the same level. Not a perfect analogy for sure, but still a place people went to die to.

Nazis camps were also not all the same. Auschwitz was a labor camp for example - which yes, still had gas chambrers and ovens. But then there was the like of Birkenau not far from there and thats where people were actually sent to die. It is clear which of those is more evil, but you can't say one of them wasn't evil just because the other was more evil.

Are you saying those that you brought up were fine, because nazi ones are worse?

Yes, I'm aware nazis and communists were not the only ones doing terrible stuff. That doesn't make it right

the fact that equivocating the worst excesses that occured under the Soviet Union as being anything remotely near the monstrous crimes against humanity perpetrated by the German Nazi regimn is to commit and engage in Holocaust denialism

Now let's be clear. I was talking death counts. And I do believe that the Nazis were worse. I saw Auschwitz and Birkenau camps and those are sights that I will never forget. I get chills just remembering it. So please do be cautions who you call holocaust denier.

But we are still comparing two evils here. One is greater, one is lesser. But "lesser" evil doesn't necessarily mean the evil was small.

Afaik Stalin is resoposible for more deaths than Hitler. Hitler had concentration camps, Stalin had gulags. Neither was much better than the other.
