it’s a cute title for an authoritarian state. even the soviet union would hardly be classed as communist in anything but label.

that’s like saying socialists are tied to national socialism…

when a power hungry group adopts a title that’s incongruous with it’s actions, like, DPRK, it’s always in an attempt to distract from their actions and policies.

The point is, when you aren’t being intentionally obtuse, that it actually would not be a multi-decade process that would require a large restructuring of laws, economics, medical care, etc.

bwahaha, no, for the CCP, it would be even more monumentally hard:

they’d have to start caring about their citizens.

we pay lip service to such things, but neither gov really cares in the end. whether it’s a chinese rocket or a colt AR clone ‘pistol’ neither really give a flying fuck.

You don’t think it won’t be greatly more difficult, and complicated, to corrected the litany of systemic issues that lead to mass shootings,

yeah because ignoring them is working SO FUCKIN WELL over here.

lovely, that’s gonna be gorgeous. how are you going to finish it, stain or?

vs not stopping your own

you don’t think it’s an action of our government that we allow dangerous and unqualified idiots combat weapons?

pfft

pfft. sure the chinese space program rains down booster parts and hypergolic fuels on their citizens. it’s not like they’re targeting children in schools though. and if they did target schools, their government would probably do something.

unlike some places lol.

whoa gnarly, thank you!

did you melt it to wax paper?

so you fuck said 10, and give him/her a bomb case full of old pinball parts.

or a plan for one.

c: the ‘allies’ you’re referring to constantly have struggle sessions like this one It’s a little funny to me that a piece of this calculation is basically: “the probability that they’d all hang out together and not with me is just so low I don’t believe it” lmao

sure thing sport.

man I just want to convert my element. give me 120 mile range and I’m good, I only use it for hauling wood and moving shit around anyway.

If you had no material reason to doubt those numbers

they do, though: transfolk represent a exceptionally small but real segment of the population; the idea that all of them found the same lemmy instance and joined it exclusively vs. allies and other users is pretty improbable.

this isn’t anyone questioning their honesty, simply remarking that the odds of it being that way are infinitesimal.

heh those wizards weren’t blue, they just suffered from Seasonal Affective Disorder.

got any pics of the cleaning results?

thanks for the detailed overview!

same with the ecoterrorism in the Kerch strait - russia has basically dumped two tankers worth of oil through their negligence or terrorism.

russnuts burning on an open fire… drones nipping at your toes…

once.

yeah, liberals are conservative scum lol.

liberals are literally on the left wing of the spectrum, but apparently that’s not good enough for ‘arbitrary decider of who’s a leftist’ here

Yes, this would be the ideal - then Poland and Lithuania can share Kaliningrad.

A free Crimea… Transnistria free of putin’s bullshit…

Vladivostok returned to Yongmingcheng …
