My understanding is that it means going, loosely, to the opposite side of the state of the major metropolitan area in that state. Upstate NY is the northwest part, upstate MA is the west part, upstate PA is the northeast part. I’m looking around, and it seems to also 1) only be used on a few states, 2) usually is on the north half (but not always), and 3) is somewhat interchangable with “rural”.
Whether or not this is true, which I’m not going to address, DPRK is 1) not a settler colonial state, 2) not doing apartheid, and 3) not in the process of growing their own borders into neighboring territory, which are three very large and important differences to consider no matter how you feel about DPRK
don’t we more or less know that this happened to hundreds of Israelis?

this is just how it’s supposed to go when you have a thing like the Hannibal Directive
why even bother denying the apartheid allegations? Just own it Bibi, it’s not like anyone will hold you accountable
imagine a world more complicated than a good guys/bad guys dichotomy
give us one singular solitary good reason we should have empathy for this decrepit, cheating, silver spoon mouthed, tax leeching, sex pest, waste of money and attention
I kind of think you’d have a different tune if this were Putin to be honest, wanna talk about why? In my mind, all of the appeals to civility are just status quo worship veiled in “human decency” that 1) doesn’t consider the good that would be brought to the world by his passing and 2) isn’t extended to anyone outside of the status quo power structure.
who could have seen this coming? surely not the south Vietnamese, the south Koreans, or any of the other militaries the united states propped up until it became clear that they weren’t going to win
there’s not really a joke here it’s just a bunch of slurs
Not only is @jacksilver@lemmy.world right, but additionally, this article is extremely biased in favor of Xorg and is much more of a (completely unfair and one-sided) take-down of Wayland oriented at technical folks and not at all an explainer for laypeople
There’s one key thing that he also said he wouldn’t let stop him:
I wonder why they left out of the headline that he also said that he wouldn’t let The Hague stop him 🤔
this comment is school shooter coded
“Flags”, red or green, are usually the latter, but both are certainly good for this thread!
you might not be offended, but you’re definitely insufferable
I have tried arguing with the people I would categorise as ‘anti-intellectual’ more than 99% of people to ever have lived trying to understand them
this betrays a lot about your attitudes towards 99% of people and how you interact with them
Consider that the ones who aren’t as enlightened as you just haven’t had the privilege to get the free time, financial flexibility, and education to spend a lot of time and effort self-reflecting on their own intellectual purity. Consider also that there are many in that group who count you as anti-intellectual for your prioritization of the ideals of a squeaky clean intellectual platform over the material realities of living in the world and having to engage in conflict and contradictions.
Alright, from the very words of your own comment:
At some point, does it matter?
in direct response to my comment
Who decides what is stupid and what isn’t?
Yes, it does matter. If you want to “Give people the resources to educate themselves”, you have to have a definition of stupid and not stupid that guides your choice of what is and isn’t good education; in order to “Give them the benefit of the doubt, once”, you have to have a criteria for when they’ve stopped being stupid.
Exactly. So we can’t just “Treat stupidity as a type of malice”, because nobody can agree on what is and isn’t stupidity.
they them is basically always safe! If someone specifically requests against it then don’t but they/them is what I always use if I don’t know or have multiple options. All I might add is that a lot of queer people get tired of being only called their AGAB’s pronouns, so maybe don’t exclusively use those.
regardless of what you think of him, Deng Xiaoping was the guy in a way that pretty much no other human is gonna be for the unfolding of the 21st century
