you know like a few weeks ago the iranian regime killed upwards of 30,000 people?
Isn’t this something CIA / Mossad made up to justify attacking Iran? It hasn’t been independently verified as far as I know.
Verified deaths are about a thousand ‘protestors’, and about two thousand police and civilians.
Motorola is notorious for not providing updates. Which is sad, because their phones have decent hardware, almost-vanilla Android and allow bootloader unlocking.
Also many models still have headphone port and expandeable storage.
‘Allahu Akbar’ means ‘God is great’. It has nothing to do with battle.
This is so stupid. Of all the possible options, why are we buying the one that we know won’t work against Pakistan? Entire contract should have been cancelled.
Iraq Iran has WMDs anti-ship missiles.
Good. Now make it replaceable.
Ah, that makes sense.
absolutely perfect choice for the movie it’s in.
I’m aware of the meaning, but I actually found it strange that they put a song about cheating in a film aimed at children.
Several Japanese songs, such as Summer of Goodbye, Message in Rouge and Contrails
Garland of a Hundred Flowers - My neighbours’ national anthem can’t be this cute! (Nepali)
Halls of Hueyteotl and Baba Yetu (both Swahili, both from video games)
Epstein’s friend
You realise how little that narrows it down?
Also are these the same governments that acknowledged that Iraq had WMDs?
Learn to check sources if you do not wish to be dismissed as a conspiracy theorist. You linked a Wikipedia page. Did you even bother to check the references? The first five include conspiracy nutter Adrian Zenz, the rag that spread the Palestinians raped Israelis and killed children conspiracy, and some group based in Taiwan. That’s two worthless sources, and one sus source, out of five.
Sir this is a-lemmy. We all hate Microslop, rich people and cars here.
In any society, some sections would be having ‘good times’, and wouldn’t want the status quo to change. Other sections wouldn’t be having a great time, and would be asking for change.
Centrists then might be people who want some changes, although people who don’t want any change often also call themselves centrists since (1) different sections would be asking for different directions of change, so staying put might seem the middle ground, and (2) it’s more respectable than admitting the current system benefits them and they don’t want it to change.
Also centralists are different. Centralisation / decentralisation is the debate over how much power national governments should have versus local governments.
China isn’t Israel.
Centrism is okay during good times
Good times for whom?
So, because the US is regrettably inching toward authoritarianism, the fully authoritarian state was the better one all along?
In which of these countries do the police shoot / choke random people in broad daylight? In which of them is slavery still legal?
China is far from perfect but why would you compare it to like the second worst country in the world?
Just read first-hand accounts from the many people that have escaped the country.
It’s important to note that most North Koreans escape to South Korea, where it is illegal to say anything positive about North Korea, and from where they cannot leave for some number of years. So I would completely trust such accounts.
Also reports about North Korea often contradict other reports about North Korea. It’s a mess of truth, exaggeration, rumours, stuff somebody made up, and in one case a satirical news article from Japan or China that Western media took at face value.
Lemmy is older than the Reddit exodus, and historically had stricter moderation. When the exodus happened, the OG lemmy users saw the newcomers as rude at best, and various forms of bigots at worst. So ‘go back to Reddit’ is short-hand for ‘such talk is not welcome here’.
