Yeah, I have no idea why people even bother with Western sources at this point, especially since the genocide in Gaza has exposed them so thoroughly. It’s one thing to read Inventing Reality or Manufacturing Consent, but to see it happen in real time is another. They shamelessly made up a fake pogrom less than two weeks ago, but some people here still think Western MSM is credible lol
Kicking myself for not saving a clip of a Hong Kong patriot slapping the shit out of some Joshua Wong clone (all male Hong Kong separatists look like Joshua Wong).

exactly, he’s a short-sighted and dumb imperialist.
Plus petty and self-aggrandizing. Has massive “will sack competent ministers and chancellors because they take the spotlight away from the monarch” energy.
Good. Fascist collaborators do not deserve peace in death, let alone peace in life.
My recollections of an early Christianity course I took in college was that:
You could set a criteria based on historicity that would include most books of the New Testament outside of Revelations.
There’s no real criteria that would include every single book of the New Testament minus Revelations but exclude the Gospel of Thomas.
Revelations almost didn’t make the cut because a lot of church fathers disliked it.
The Shepherd of Hermas is a book that a lot of church fathers liked but ultimately didn’t make the cut.
They fight on behalf of the middle class because they are a part of it. The problem is that they’re using the original definition of the middle class which meant the class between the aristocracy and the peasantry.
Terminally online drama that’s not worth caring about.
Honestly, people should just submit their posts to both comms and let the mods sort it out. If both submissions get deleted, then it just shows how the admins and mods are full of shit. Most likely, this will have a chilling effect, which I suspect is what they want in the first place. The admins dislike dunk culture, perhaps triggered by the high point of the dunk tank when the dunk tank rightfully dogpiled on lemmy admins/mods for being pedo apologists, causing the lemmy admin to block the dunk tank from lemmy.ml. Admins probably decided then that the dunk tank is outta control, that it is a loose cannon, that it is alienating the other lemmy instances, blah blah blah.
I think this screenshot summarized why the admins wanted to get rid of the dunk tank.
The test or exam as a concept (ie people gathering in a room to answer a standardized set of questions with proctors to prevent people from cheating) was invented by the Chinese. And it’s not going away anytime soon.

So what options do Russia have to retaliate if the yanks stars shooting missiles into Russia? I doubt that they will move directly to total war with NATO but they will have to do something to make it clear that this decision hurts the west as well.
Give S-400s to Iran and Ansarallah.
Shipcels when a ship’s a fool to fight a fort.
China eating double the vegetables of Vietnam is a headscratcher unless they’re counting tofu as a vegetable. Maybe they’re counting the initial weight of the soybeans before it gets turned to tofu?

Acknowledging Lan’s expression of remorse and pledge to compensate all the loss she had caused to the bank along with her contributions during the COVID-19 pandemic, the High-Level People’s Procuracy in HCM City held that these mitigating factors could be used to ease part of the penalty for the charge of “violating lending regulations in the activities of credit organisations”. It proposed the sentence be reduced from 20 years to 16 -18 years.
However, it said the mitigating factors were insufficient to warrant leniency on the charges of "fraudulent appropriation of property” and “giving bribes” as Lan had concurrently committed many particularly serious and organised wrongdoings.
The procurators said the death sentence for "fraudulent appropriation of property” should be upheld for Lan, who should aslo face a 20-year jail sentence for “giving bribes”. The combined sentence amounts to death penalty.
This was inevitable. Hasan needs to come up with a contingency plan fast because his time in Twitch will not be for long.
Lathing Trump appointing senators he doesn’t like to cabinet positions before unceremoniously firing them after their senator vacancy has been filled by people Trump likes.
Dufour highlighted two assassination attempts against Mélenchon, noting that LFI officials have been subjected to ongoing harassment.
Melenchon, regularly threatened with death and having narrowly escaped a terrorist plot orchestrated by four neo-Nazis, condemned the ongoing threats against him and his colleagues on November 12. He described the current political climate as deeply “toxic,” marked by a continuous campaign of vilification against members of his party.
