  • Tadpoles are fish too, right?

    And they even have gills.

  • "Fish" isn't a real type of animal, it's a term of convenience for similar looking/acting things that humans have lumped together.

    Its taking that back to the medieval level of "whales are fish"... Which ignores that key difference of them breathing air and not having gills.

  • Is it?

    Admittedly we don't know loads about but Mohen Darjo and early Uruk look pretty good, and some Mayan cities and American Indian nations seem like they had very good standards of life pre-Europeans too.

  • Or acid. Everyone always forgets acid.

  • I think, if I understand US law correctly, not a legal choice to publically traded companies.

  • The democrats are controlled opposition.

  • Yes. That does describe both of them fairly well.

  • Yes, certainly there are many people in the EU that benefit, but for most of them that's a side effect of the choices capital makes for how it runs it.

    The system itself doesn't care about Human Resources managers in France. Regardless of what Jean-Luc and Laura think.

  • Aye, anyone who can be blind to the truth of the EU after it deposed the Greek government and imposed austerity across southern Europe is not a person with sense.

    It is a project of Capital. Not one that works for the people, not even those of Germany or France.

  • The EU is broken and makes places worse and enforces Germanico-French imperialism upon other places. Wish it pushed back more against US rubbish.

    It is still something that if the US was more like the world would be better off.

    Obviously if both were substantially different and not pushing imperialism by soft, economic, and hard power we'd all be even better off.

  • So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person?

  • I think you might be muddling criticism of capitalism up with whacko conspiracies?

    I don't think people running banks are considered the be all and end all of capitalism.

  • What game sequel ruined a beloved franchise or character for you?

  • World of Warcraft ruined Warcraft.

    Capitalism ruins franchises.

  • Why is Lemmy so US-centric? The largest instances are in Europe, aren't they? So why does it have to be US news trolling as if it were Reddit?

  • English is a first language in more countries than Mandarin is, though.

    Do wish Yanks would recognise the world as bigger than themselves, the PRC and the USA are shockingly similar.

  • There are phrases using Trinitarian words, but the doctrine was not established until later, which is why so many early Christians didn't believe it and it was the Church's first major schism.

    I'll take your word on Joseph and legal lineage passing through dead first husbands.

    And thank you for the correction on birth place, I've poked about and it seems quite clear.

    I hope and biblical scholarship continues and we get more accurate translated off of ever older texts I, and everyone else, can keep up with where scholarship is at.

  • Edit: this original part is all about Trinitarianism:

    Hmm, I was sure they were not.

    Could I hassle you for passage numbers (and language and edition) to educate myself on the matter?

    Edit p2.: Matthew and Luke disagree on things like Joseph's family and whether Jesus was born in or on the way to Bethlehem. As just two of the many discrepancies between the 4 Evangelist gospels.

  • Isn't the fact that those accounts disagree with each other, and are in fact sometimes contradictory (and that important stuff such as trinity, holy ghost, all came much later) cause to suspect that a lot of core modern Christian tenets are not based in historical truth?

    Certainly there was a historical Jesus who did some stuff and inspired a religion. That much I think is indisputable.
