There is nothing stopping you from becoming a mercenary and getting your arm shot off, OP.

You guys just need to get a good civil war rolling, stoke those Flemish-Wallonian tensions, arm a couple of separatist movements, maybe genocide a village or two, just ask the Balkans - fastest way to put you on the map as a real country.

In these examples you used “the devil” as a placeholder for explainable phenomena with varying causes, none of them being unfalsifiable. Now consider the following sentence:
“The wage gap is causes by the patriarchy” – Surely there are no complex causes being substituted by a nebulous concept here, is it?
- Comment on Beautiful stories like this just make you smile 4 days ago:
Being upset at a shitpost in a shitposting community.
- Comment on I never realized this 4 days ago:
Unpopular opinion: Patriarchy as defined by feminists is a nebulous and unfalsifiable concept that can be replaced by “the devil” without changing the meaning of the sentence it’s used in.

Does it count as a gilf fetish if you’re both the same age.

Ok, repeat after me: “Warhammer 40k is not an instruction manual”

Oh look, another propaganda piece by the commercial real estate lobby.

On an unrelated note, I really like the saturated color palette of early color TV shows. When did we decide that the default color palette should be awash in cold blue?
- Comment on Born on the wrong side of the fence. 1 year ago:
I am fucking sick of junior highschool takes on complex geopolitical situations. OP thinks Hamas using civilians as human shields is a funny meme and not actual, grim reality.

File this under duuuuuuhhhhh
- Comment on There are exactly two types of Star Trek fans 1 year ago:
I like how corny it is, it fits the “pioneers on an exploratory mission” perfectly. Having a bombastic orchestral theme pre-federation makes no sense, the first Enterprise is a sitting duck for just about any starfaring culture, they got boarded by the Ferengi one time, ffs.
- Comment on The New Age of Airships Is Here—And It’s Electric 1 year ago:
I’ve been reading stories about the return of airships all my life. Unless they make them weatherproof, it’s not happeninh.

- Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium 1 year ago:
Such as? Newgrounds is great for animation, but everyone else suffers with YT.
- Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium 1 year ago:
Why not both? I can disdain YouTube for shitting on creators while refusing to pay for subpar service.
- Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium 1 year ago:
The price of food items has gone almost 50% up during last year, and I already pay for utilities and internet. I ain’t paying shiiiiiiiit.
- Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium 1 year ago:
Moral reasons
🙄
A corporation can blatantly violate the law, bribe politicians, ignore its TOS whenever its suits them, but a second somebody wants to use a heavily subsidised service without being assaulted by advertising, suddenly a gaggle of concern trolls pop up to lecture about “stealing service”. Buddy, simping for Alphabet will get you nowhere.
- Comment on Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium 1 year ago:
Youtube constantly demonitizes content creators, while protecting doxxers and content thieves. I will not be giving them a single red cent.

Not everyone lives in a cyberpunk dysopia, there are state funded healthcare systems that mandate long term support for medical devices. Clown emoji yourself, buddy.

Can we have one postive news article without the gloom and doom, please.
- Comment on Demand to reverse Brexit hits ‘highest ever level’ 1 year ago:
Reverse Brexit
It doesn’t work that way. They have to apply for membership and go through the standard process. It’s not like they can snap their fingers and become a core member once again, until thr next populist leader starts threatening to leave again
- Comment on I have never seen an ad in the past 6 years. I use android phone, windows PC and Android TV. Keen to hear when was the last time you saw an AD ? 1 year ago:
They can be a bit too much, but thanks to a billboard I found out that one of my favorite bands (Morcheeba) are playing in my city.

It depends, am I going to be a washed up disco star or a car obsessed binoclard?
- Comment on Am I Doing This Right? 1 year ago:
“Crew of Enterprise finds out they’re characters in a TV show” sounds like a genuine concept for an episode.
- Comment on Am I Doing This Right? 1 year ago:
How do you manage to go through life without watching a single episode of Trek? It has numerous seasons and spinoffs, and it is constantly in sindication. Do you avoid broadcast TV in entirety?
