It was a joke, Putin, being a fascist, wouldn’t support queer people, even in enemy countries. Your friend being nb and buying into that conspiracy is very silly.

It is equivalent to what they said.

Have they thanked Putin for supporting their struggle?

The users are users, but the admin thinks foreign countries are using gender ideology to destroy the American empire from within.
- Comment on RedNote may wall off “TikTok refugees” to prevent US influence on Chinese users 1 week ago:
They wrote an article from an unsubstantiated rumor on Reddit.
Meanwhile, China’s People’s Dispatch has praised the exchange, and Rednote has added a translation feature.

Why not use the app to ask Chinese people about the social credit score system?
- Comment on China’s Economy Could Soon Face A Massive Debt Crisis 2 weeks ago:
That’s weird, every statistic I can find suggests mainland China’s housing prices have been decreasing since 2022. The whole reason developers abandoned projects was the projected cost went lower than what they’d spend finishing it.

For which people? The people renting 2bds in major cities for 3-400/mo? The people who want to build a 2bd outside a major city for 50K+land cost?
It’s devastating for the people trying to make money off housing, it’s great for the people who need housing.

- Comment on US to reportedly sanction 200 more Chinese chip firms — high bandwidth memory might also see export bans 2 months ago:
Chinese manufacturers build to specification. Most of those brand names are manufactured in China. If you don’t want the absolute cheapest shit, don’t buy the absolute cheapest shit.
- Comment on US to reportedly sanction 200 more Chinese chip firms — high bandwidth memory might also see export bans 2 months ago:
It would have been so easy for the dems to remove the tarriffs on Chinese goods and be like “Hey America, things are 25%+ cheaper, and you can get an electric car for 10K” and the sanctions on Cuba and go “Look at these cheap, quality cigars, rum, and beaches”, instead of expanding on Trump’s policy from 2016.

Trump isn’t even in office yet and we’re ramping up the trade war.

Didn’t Nice Polite Republicans already do that?
I stopped listening to them back when they brought an insurance executive on to talk about how great health insurance is at “providing healthcare”, but they just need more money.

That doesn’t always happen, look at the massacres in South Korea before the end of the dictatorship.
The numbers on wikipedia are lower than actual numbers as questioning them could literally get you executed, the official number for the Gwangju uprising for instance is 165, but the city recorded an extra 2300 deaths above historical averages for May. That doesn’t include thousands who were arrested, many of whom sentenced to death.

Thanks for catching the typo.
- Comment on Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe 2 months ago:
Maybe in the UK when each plants is basically unique instead of having improvements from all the previous iterations. In the US it’s around 92%. I don’t know how to search China or France’s numbers, but I suspect they’re similar or better.
- Comment on Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe 2 months ago:
A MW of solar averages out to about .2 MW/h per hour. A MW of nuclear averages about .9 MW/h per hour.
But even so as the UK does it, nuclear power isn’t worth it. France and China are better examples since they both picked a few designs and mass produced them.

McDonalds is already on the BDS list for giving free food to the IOF. Which isn’t difficult because it’s garbage food at the price of real food.

Why are they doing an ad for mcdonalds?
- Comment on How else are ypu supposed to check for a beam on your accelerator? 2 months ago:
How strong were particle accelerators back then?
The only case I know of a dude sticking their head in a particle accelerator was in 1978. His head became quite swollen and he had radiation burns. He’s still alive at 82.
There’s also the Therac-25, that was pretty noticible.

- Comment on The EchoChamberinator 9000! 2 months ago:
Except for the bourgeoisie, most fascists are tricked or indoctrinated into supporting fascism though. Grandma doesn’t support fascism because she will benefit, but because she’s been told the most marginalized people in society are exploiting her and the fascists promise to stop that.

- Comment on Star Citizen Expose Paints a Fairly Bleak Picture: 'There's No Actual Focus on Getting the Game Done' 3 months ago:
Because Crysis looked good, Chris Roberts mandated that Star Citizen would use Cryengine 3.
To make astronomically large spaces fit in cryengine, they made everything infinitesimally small.
So now the inaccuracy inherent in floating point calculations, instead of nudging things a few millimeters, teleports people hundreds of feet out of their ships into space if they bump into a physics object, ladder, elevator, etc.
This is what happens when an ideas guy with no technical knowledge is making technical decisions.

Lemmy just can’t handle someone who’s anti-genocide
They can’t when that stance conflicts with their party. Hence why “The dems need to stop the genocide, people are not going to vote for genocide” gets you downvoted.
“fuck Biden for arming Israel” meme that has 1,500 upvotes
Those exist on .world? I see a lot more “You have to vote for genocide because trump would do genocide and also other bad things”.

Maybe, but conservatism is considered much more acceptable among Americans than anything left of liberalism. Particularly now when the dems are trying to reach out to conservatives. You can check by whether you’ve been banned from PleasentPolitics
legally” and “Illegal
Adding “this should be done according to the law” doesn’t divorce an action from its morality.
Rounding up millions of immigrants, some whom have been here for decades, and nearly all of whom are here because they’re fleeing the effects of the US constantly couping their governments and training/funding terrorists is an immoral action, whether they’re legal or illegal.
