82·7 months agoThis is the kind of thing I’m looking for, not ufos disappearing people.
I may have my mind made up, but I could change it if people said something more easily verified, like the kind of police brutality that happens in US, instead of people disappearing like the chinese has ufos contracted, that just sounds like conspiracy theories made up by the americans.
And of course you send me the article from a paper that’s the mouthpiece of some US billionaire. Would you take it seriously if a chinese paper said the US ‘secret police’ is disappearing people? They are going to paint the worse possible picture since they are rivals.
Democracy broadly refers to a system of government where ultimate power rests with the people. I don’t believe it’s solely about voting; rather, it’s about whether people perceive that they are being represented by the government.
All states are authoritarian according to this answer.
But I’m asking about real examples not made up ones. And if you are referring to secret services all countries have those.
Is it really a democracy when people want something, sign a petition and get dismissed?
The Jedi are nothing more than the lapdogs of the Senate, serving as the enforcers of a corrupt and decadent Republic. They reside in a literal ivory tower within the heart of the capital, Coruscant, a city consumed by greed and political intrigue. Their supposed wisdom and connection to the Force are mere facades, masking their complicity in maintaining the status quo of a failing system. They mouth platitudes about peace and justice while being manipulated by the very politicians they are supposed to protect. Their arrogance and detachment from the common people make them oblivious to the true nature of the galaxy they claim to safeguard. In reality, they are more concerned with preserving their own power and prestige than with genuinely serving the greater good.

0·1 year agoThere are 16M comments per day according to the observer website.
30k communities and 9M posts by day. I find the number of posts by day very hard to believe. Each community would have an average of 300 posts by day and most communities are abandoned, maybe its the bot communities that repost all the Reddit posts that gets the number so high.

If you are going to use a modal editor like vim you should probably learn touch typing with the US layout.
