Britain’s answer to the Nazis was Winston Churchill, who was literally as bad as Hitler (except he genocided Asians instead of Europeans so white people don’t care).

You should not expect better from this shithole.

It’d be slightly nicer if it were just a step backward in time, but I’m afraid these ghouls and their ideology never actually left. Not in England, anyway.

I understand there’s some merit in the point you’re making, of course, but it’s not necessarily accurate either.

Autism is assessed by two symptom scales, which I will broadly call social and repetitive scales (just to simplify a bit). They don’t correlate too strongly with each other in people with a diagnosis, nor in the general population. This means, basically, people with autism all have different presentations, and people without can be fairly high in traits from either scale without actually being autistic. So, the boundaries are very fluid, even scientifically speaking.

In addition, autism is what’s called a behavioural phenotype, or in other words, defined by a collection of behaviours. Researchers studying brain scans (such as by fMRI) have found, even in people with autism diagnoses, there are several different broad types of “autistic brain,” and some of the groups they found even had brains that looked and appeared to function like allistic brains, and yet the autistic people with those brains still had autism. (In fact, surprisingly, those with the more “allistic-appearing” brains also had even more additional diagnoses such as ADHD or OCD.)

So, the boundary of what is autistic and what is not is not something strictly categorical.

…Of course, this doesn’t imply it’s okay to downplay the relevance of autistic traits and how they impact the life experiences of people, which is often what ends up happening, whether deliberately or not.

Do you think the Soviets should have run around slapping random people who used to be in the Wehrmacht? Do you think throwing your milkshake at some German who supported Hitler in 1932 would have stopped the Nazis?

Punching random goons achieves nothing for the people. It is not praxis, it is not a revolutionary action, and saying you support it doesn’t suggest that you take actual steps to oppose anyone.

Are you saying the CPC is libbed up for deliberately using reeducation and formal justice systems to resolve the recurrent terrorism problem in Xinjiang rather than using force and naked brutality like liberal “democracies” usually do? Keeping in mind that the Xinjiang policies have been effective while imperialist violence has deepened and entrenched conflicts, and that those ongoing conflicts which have been resolved through pure force specifically use lethal weapons and mass execution, not some embarrassing discount Incredible Hulk imitation.

Or I guess we should be real here that you’re just fedposting.

I think in America it’s usually called hydric acid! 😨

Finally a chance to say “fully automated luxury gay space communism” and actually have it work in my favour.

This comes from someone who genuinely believes in the right to punch Nazis.

Well, I see the problem now. Punching people doesn’t solve Nazism.

If you were advocating for reeducating them, revoking their right to vote, or even putting them in prison, fine. But punching people is just some weird power fantasy, “I’m better than you because I beat you up.”

The fact you think beating people up just to feel dominant or whatever is good politics shows you have a lot in common with Pewds… and, well, Nazis.

Why shouldn’t I be able to have the files mare.png (a photo of a horse) and MarE.png (a photo taken on a vacation in March, fifth in the series after MarA, MarB, MarC, and MarD)?

Or rainsley (a text file, no extension, with notes about a story I’m writing) and Rainsley (a directory with art of the same character the file is named after)?

Do I strictly need to be able to do these things? No, of course not. But the file system is more flexible and functional if I am able to.

And every major population in the U.S. would be annihilated in return. If China decided to nuke their own coast, America would either do nothing about it or come to a swift and total end.

All humans are basically pure evil.

You’ve never been fucked in your life. You can complain about being fucked when you live in Gaza or Syria or something. Until then, stop pretending you’re some kind of victim because you blow money on expensive tech shit and partying.

Let me be more blunt about this.

You’re going to die. No matter how much money you make, no matter whether you own your own house or not, no matter whether you can buy whatever food you fancy, you are going to die.

If you’re spending your life just thinking about how to make more money, your life is pointless. Do something better with it.

Isn’t this just doublespeak for “EU threatens to also put tariffs on China to make Trump happy”?

But I mean, if EU whitey wants to go down with US whitey’s ship, be my guest…

If your goals in life start and end with personal wealth, you should expect stones thrown at you. Not sure what else you’re expecting with that level of egotism.

He drained the swamp (of water and natural wildlife) so he could fill it again (with toxic waste).

How can you be so incompetent that your military equipment requires trade with the country you’re most concerned about military conflict with? Top example of how the short-term, profits-only thinking that is inherent to capitalism actively undermines itself.

It takes government time and money to review, approve, ensure the safety of any construction, which they could be using to come up with a solution for life expectancy decreasing, ever-longer NHS waiting lists and medication shortages, etc.

They absolutely should be prioritising general welfare over this. The reason they’re not is because the park will put more money in their own pockets, which is, as records will attest, the only thing Kid Starver’s Labour care about.

Never mind Bedfordshire, where local government seem to do little else these days aside from cutting down trees and tearing up public benches.

If you want a better future, elect people

You had me in the first half.
