That first link is dead.

Murdering civilians is what Russia does.

Which side made a post stamp out of blowing up a family car with kids onboard >_>

You’re adding a zero to the total number dead, and also conflating those killed by Iran with those killed by Daesh and Israel. The larger portion is those killed by Israel/USA/Allies since they’re the ones using terrorism tactics.

No worries at all. I absolutely don’t expect most people to pick up on it. (That’s why it’s a good dog-whistle). Even in Iran they’d just think you’re outdated. But it’s a very common thing in the diaspora who long for the monarchy when there was a hierarchy of peoples and theirs was at the top. VOA/RFA operated Iranian-language media has been very good at pushing this narrative of going ‘back to tradition’, to a time when minorities ‘weren’t stealing resources from the majority’, or ‘demanding affirmative action’, etc.

If I can use DeepL to translate Persian, so can you, yanks.

In English, the language is called Iranian. Some people use Farsi, which is Iranian for Iranian.

If you see someone insist on Persian, don’t listen to that person. They are a Nazi every single time.

I don’t think you are a Nazi, but I’m convinced one has your ear and has been successful in pushing away Iranians. I know you’ve heard someone say “Persian, Iranian, it doesn’t matter, they mean the same thing”, and that’s at first a very convincing argument, no reason to keep looking for patterns. But when you look for patterns, it becomes undeniable. It’s like people who insist on saying Burma or Rhodesia or Saigon.

The reason those people prefer the name Persia, is because it implies that the country belongs to one ethnicity and culture. It’s trying to lesser the other peoples of Iran.

“Farsi” is technically Iranian for “Persian”, so when translated it might seem like that’s already happening. But the difference is that people in Iran understand the context and history, and so while they use that name to describe the language, since that’s an accurate description of what the language is and how it came to be the lingua franca, people in Iran wouldn’t use it to mean the country or the broader Iranian identity.

Trump and Putin sure, but also everyone whose ever had a leadership role in the USA military. Obama is still alive. Bush is still alive. And ideally to a more trustworthy court.

Nah he’s saying he’ll order terrorist attacks against frustraters.

Someone else already pointed out that you confused different women for the same person, but the man is different too. The top picture in OP’s post is Donald Trump, the USA guy. In a closer photo he looks completely different to Putin.

Are you calling the people on the receiving end of the genocide “genocidal”? Is your argument that if they just committed suicide, the pitiable Nazis wouldn’t need to go through the bore of conducting the genocide, so their refusal equates to demanding a genocide?

Beyond even that, they praise inviting people to negotiate and then murdering those negotiators.

It’s not an oxymoron, the idea is that when there are forces with opposed interests, one has to win. Note that this is talking about opposed interests, not interests that are merely in conflict.

So no matter how much you try to make concessions for the other, you have to choose if you want a bourgeois dictatorship (liberal democracy) or a proletariat dictatorship (people’s democracy) at the end of the day. Socialists just use less euphemism, and therefore accused of “admitting to dictatorship”, but a liberal democracy is the exact same type of dictatorship. The bourgeoisie interests dictate, and they make concessions for the sake of the proletariat.

Can you point to any of CIA’s metainfo about this file?

I believe this is the page you’re looking for. It’s very minimal. https://www.cia.gov/readingroom/document/cia-rdp80-00810a006000360009-0

Isn’t that just lurking behaviour?

It’s weird to me that this particular law was the one the colour revolutionaries rallied behind.

A Hong Kong resident confessed to having committed a murder on Taiwan. China extradites people summoned for court or with arrest warrants issued by the Taipei rebel government to Taiwan as long as it’s for non-political offences. So they would extradite this murderer to be tried on Taiwan.

Different parts of China have different laws, because it’s a big country with autonomous regions. Hong Kong, not that big, but for historical reasons have their own laws as well. If someone has an arrest warrant issued by one of the other Chinese governments, they will extradite the person to their jurisdiction. If it’s a different country, with which China has an extradition treaty, then they will extradite them to Beijing (the Chinese national government) and Beijing will send them to that other country.

Taiwan is neither a separate country, nor a Chinese government whose arrest warrants Hong Kong respects. But the guy confessed to murder. He should be tried. So new legislation is required to make it legal to extradite him to Taiwan, either directly or through Beijing.

That was the initial controversy.

establish a platform discussing history of Tiennaman square or Uyghurs without strictly adhering to government set guidelines, then they will likely be prosecuted.

Tienanmen square has a 600 year history. You’re referring to one event, which is censored. But even that doesn’t cover the portion that is relevant to the history of Tiennaman, no part of the protests is censored. Uighur history also doesn’t have any censors.

It is true that you have been able to identify one censor in your two topics (albeit with inaccurate wording). It’s also a particularly sensitive topic with strong disinformation campaigns targetting it. In 2020, many states worldwide issued censors on COVID and vaccine related topics for similar reasons.

If only your distro would support more than one desktop.

I will say though, Gnome dropping support for other window managers does suck. That is them removing infrastructure that non-(or semi) Gnome users depend on.

What is this a reference to? Who quoted Tucker Carlson?

This is still putting some equivalency on a non-aggression treaty and actual military alliance.

Brits insist they’re a democracy, don’t they? They’re included in the “Democratic west vs authoritarian east” rhetoric. Weird how the goalpost shifts when your side is transparently coming out worse.
