In this very thread, like six parent comments up, it was already established that China is not communist
I wonder if there’s a reason why I said “the vast majority” and “legitimately implemented”
Nah I’m sure I only picked those words because they sound nice
Not necessarily, it could just mean that the vast majority of the time it would be legitimately implemented, a larger country that doesn’t like communism spends a lot of time and money interfering with it
No, it’s pretty distinct from communism, which is why it’s not called that
Let’s try it with this post
State Capitalism
a political system in which the state has control of production and the use of capital.
The most GPT ass comment I’ve ever read
PS: The evacuation at Fukushima killed more people than the actual disaster would have
PS: The materials used for nuclear reactors are not the materials used for nuclear bombs. Coal and gunpowder both burn, but you don’t throw gunpowder in a coal power plant, right?
Something like half the population of the human species is currently experiencing a heat wave approaching exceeding 50°. Quit pretending that nuclear power is uniquely dangerous.
Damn I guess if it’s cheaper to destroy the environment with fossil fuels then we should probably do that instead
you’ve convinced me, I’m an oil industry stan now, since nuclear power hasn’t made any progress in waste management in the last 60 years, and it’s not like our descendents will be dealing with the environmental cost of fossil fuels here in 2000 years
Granted that’s because there won’t be any descendents, but still
It’s efficient, pays for itself within a couple decades, and is far less dangerous than what we’re doing right now. Did you know that burning fossil fuels releases more radiation into populated areas than nuclear power does?
Do you have any idea what genetically modified organisms actually are? We’re not talking about some chemical we’ve never heard of, we’re talking about rice (but with more vitamin a). This isn’t something that needs to be proven safe.
I love the downvotes from people who don’t understand what GMOs even are
Vietnamese law prohibits any individual from holding more than 5% of the shares in any bank. But prosecutors say that through hundreds of shell companies and people acting as her proxies, Truong My Lan actually owned more than 90% of Saigon Commercial.
They accused her of using that power to appoint her own people as managers, and then ordering them to approve hundreds of loans to the network of shell companies she controlled.
The amounts taken out are staggering. Her loans made up 93% of all the bank’s lending.
The scale of fraud was huge.
This feels a lot like those headlines back in January about a novel coronavirus in China
I hope this installment finally explains the connection between the other two shows in the franchise, Gate and Steins;Gate
Oh no! I’ve tested those tags on the website (both SJW and feddit.nl), Connect, Sync, and Jerboa, so I thought they’d work everywhere! What are you using to browse Lemmy? I want to be able to tag spoilers for everyone
Belle really is a good movie with an amazing soundtrack, I was just ranting about one thing in it that bothers me
Padparadscha
I get the feeling you’re already familiar with my favorite anime OP
I’m just gonna copy and paste my comment from last time I answered this question on a forum. Most of these are just because they’re good songs that make the good chemicals go in my brain. Like, they’re the songs I throw on my playlist and listen to while I’m driving.
Land of the Lustrous’ opening, Kyoumen no Nami, is my #1 most listened to song on Youtube Music two years in a row, largely thanks to the fascinating polyrhythms
Aside from that, some top picks are (in order of best to not as best)
Akudama Drive (mainly for the visuals)
Noir (also mainly for the visuals)
Akudama Drive was rad as hell. GitS is obviously a classic. Belle… is certainly a movie. By all rights it should be such a great movie. The soundtrack is amazing, even the dubs sound good. The animation is beautiful. But my suspension of disbelief can’t handle the game they’re playing. I’ll spoiler tag my main problems with both types of tag, so it should work no matter how you’re viewing lemmy
Is it PVP or PVE? Is it a massive sandbox? Are the no admins? >!Why is there The Gun That Doxxes People?!< That one is the thing that I really couldn’t take seriously. Like, I can handle the disconnect between what appears to be a PVE world and the PVP elements that we see–maybe it’s just part of the game’s social structure that everyone agrees to no attacking people in cities. I just can’t get over that >!Gun That Doxxes People!<. What psychotic programmer makes that item? How does the game still have players when they know that someone can always come by and >!shoot them with a Gun That Doxxes Them???!<
Other than that it’s so good. I just couldn’t keep my suspension of disbelief intact.
And I said you’re wrong, because it’s not. Let’s just agree that you’re wrong and stop wasting 1s and 0s
