You’ve now made a false dichotomy of your “thousands of corpses ran over with tanks” strawman, and “a handful”.
Conveniently for you, this excludes the truth - several hundred dead victims.
This smug sophomore bullshit, along with supporting authoritarian dictatorships, is why everyone hates you tankies.
it’s from the Latin “libra”, for balance, like a set of scales. the £ symbol for pounds as in money is a stylised L for the same reason!
etymology lesson over, imperial/customary gtfo resumes. metric ftw.

yup, phone GUIs today have converged, just like different consoles’ controllers used to be distinct, and now they’re all Dual Shock clones.
i’ve only ever heard about this “green bubble” thing from USA media.
do Americans still use SMS?
why? phone numbers are obsolete. my SMS inbox going back years is just 2FA security codes, and they’re very rare these days, since authenticator apps.
the national tld for Mali, but the lemmy ml owners chose it for a “Marxist-Leninist” reference. no kidding.
fun fact - they* also deny genocides committed by (even nominally) communist regimes.
*a lot of them, and even those who don’t actively, still stick with the goons who do.
I’m happy paying a Nebula subscription, (another video site started by a group of youtubers, mostly engineering/tech/documentary types) because I know that the creators are getting all my money after reasonable platform costs.
I won’t consider paying for YT Premium (or Spotify) until they become a lot more generous to creators, and stop their insane copyright strike algorithm and banned-words audio scanner from demonetising and hiding random videos (Jake Broe, Joe Blogs, Denys Davydov, Ryan McBeth etc are always having to edit and reupload to cut some harmless snippet) and whole channels (Metatron) all the time.
If you haven’t seen tankies denying genocide and/or saying the victims brought it on themselves, then, I suspect you haven’t been looking very far in the comments of the news community there, to be fair. There are a lot of posters who will defend Russia, China, Syria etc all day long. All their crimes are apparently made up by “western media”, (as if Jimmy Dore’s basement isn’t in the west.)
Fortunately, they’re getting super buttmad lately at being downvoted so much.
This is not the normal human experience. Check if you’re a robot?
