  • Don't make assumptions about my assumption. In a thread about US politics and a US President, WE USE PRONOUNS to avoid having to repeat all the desciptors we would need to be exactly correct.

    Join us.

    "Pronouns are words used to replace nouns in sentences, helping to avoid repetition."

    If you argue over pronouns, NO topic can be discussed. That's why civil people never, ever argue with pronouns. Be one of us! ONE OF US ONE OF US.

    There's no world were arguing with pronouns helps anybody, anywhere, at any time, as nothing else could be discussed.

    Learn! YOU CAN DO IT

    I could take apart each of your pronouns, but I don't, because look what happens when you challenge pronouns that have nothing to do with you.

  • She has bigger balls than me, brave but I don't think this will help her or Venezuela.

    Regardless, it's nice to see people stand up against Goliath

  • Soon we will need a program to make settings in our program.

    A "Windows Manager Manager"

  • Oh dear... you do know that Trump couldn't do ANY of this shit without Democrats, don't you?

    Don't be distracted by AOC, she's the "good one"; we have a few token Ds (and an Independent or two) that represent "classic FDR New Deal democrats", but they certainly don't run the party.

  • Geneva convention?

    Yeah, we've ignored that since they convened in Geneva.

  • We did this long before Putin.

    You could say that Putin adopted an "Americazation of US foreign policy".

  • How do you take out cartels? Even if you somehow managed to kill every cartel member tomorrow, a similar organization would be created within weeks.

    Because there are billions of dollars to be made, and those involved in the trade are not rich; it's often their only chance to "get ahead". You will never win this war.

  • It's nice to want things.

    I want him to shut his gaping yaphole, neither one of us is happy. Life is suffering

  • Windows recently "hung up" when opening "network and internet settings", just a blank square.

    Also, blank square when opening "file explorer".

    Both are working now; my point is I couldn't accomplish basic tasks in the usual way, fundamentally basic settings. First time this has happened to me. I am old and have been using Windows since there were screensavers. That you would buy. For money. On a floppy disk.

  • Ha, the joke is that you can't turn off geolocation! That is why it is funny! Ha ha!

  • That's the rub, I made NO ASSUMPTION about who you (singular) are or what you (plural) represent.

    You're arguing with pronouns, don't do that.

    I'll keep bringing it back to that core point, which is all that matters. Who YOU (singular) are to me is irrelevant.

    Hilarious indeed.

    Your correction has been corrected, now go forth and sin no more!

    Are you familiar with Jordan Petersen?

    I hope and pray that English is not your mother tongue. German, perhaps (this is an educated guess, not an assumption)?

  • "Shlomo Kramer"

    HA

  • Sure I can. "You" can address you specifically AND the position you represent in the discussion simultaneously.

    it's never a "gotcha" to challenge such terms, there's no "gotcha". If you challenge pronouns, you will never get to an actual issue to discuss.

    The user of the pronoun defines who they were addressing, never the "challenger".

  • Much better chance he wasn't.

    (they don't need to steal elections, our parties won't bite the hand that feeds them)

  • Why is it not okay to be a scalper? What do you mean by "not ok", should it be frowned upon by others (like pooping your pants) or do you mean morally wrong (like a sin) or a crime?

  • I have a derby! It's worth a billion dollars

  • You are arguing with the use of POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS.

    Please look that up.

    Human conversation is impossible without their liberal use. My use was accurate.

    No nonsense statement was made. Stop challenging possessive pronouns.

    Do you understand?

    Should you do this anywhere on Earth, you will be loathed, forever.

    Also, you don't know what "imperical data" means. Understanding is lost to you.

    Lastly, "you" is a word that you appear to be unfamiliar with. I encourage you to look it up! YOU can be PLURAL. Not YOU specifically.

    What happened to you (in this case singular, not plural)?

    Our conversation is a perfect example of why you (in this case plural, not singular only) should never challenge possessive pronouns!

    Stop it.

    "Our grandma died today..." you "NOT MY GRANDMA"

    p.s. oh my god I was wondering who you remind me of and it just hit me... are you JORDAN PETERSON ???

    "What does 'our' mean?" What do you mean by 'you'?" and so on. Jordan, get off of lemmy!

  • You win, I'm tired

  • As it is now, I don't think there would be any armed resistance to China without American opposition.

    China is already backing Russia though, the safer course would be to just wait it out until the dollar collapses. On the other hand, such a war may be the last straw on the camel's back for the USA.

  • How will that stop China? Japan's military is very limited (by design).
