From my first reply:
Indigenous is more correct because that involves the land changing someone, not just something coming from there.
You might not be aware of every pedantic difference, I didn’t assume anyone would, that’s why I explicitly stated it
Feel free to Google and check my work, but this isn’t an argument someone can win, words have meaning.

This is a WordPress blog of some guy complaining that an academic study showed something he doesn’t think is true…

He actually put his foot down. And Biden as VP wouldn’t shut up about how the only way to deal with Israel was to give them everything they want and beg for what we want.
Biden recounted in private that when he was vice president in 2014 and Israel mounted a military assault on Gaza, Obama and his staff rejected his belief, held for decades, that the best way to approach the Israelis is to hug them close but not criticize them, the people familiar with his comments said.
Instead, they said Biden has noted, Obama publicly admonished Israel’s actions and voiced concern for Palestinian civilian deaths early into the 2014 conflict. As a result, Biden has argued, Obama squandered any ability to influence the Israeli government as it invaded Gaza, said the people familiar with his comments.
Trump’s loyalty costs some bribes and nice words, but Bibi could call Biden a bitch to his face and Biden would have thanked him for his time.
But it’s been almost a decade since Israel had to ask America before doing something

Then just JAGing off (just asking questions) till the other person gets tired of explaining.
Like, if people want to insist on rehashing something from over a decade ago despite it being settled history at this point.
They don’t want to actually discuss it, they have an opinion they agree with, and want to scream at someone for valuing facts more than their opinion

Back in the day in what is modern day China, a jailor was transporting prisoners. He ran into issues, and was going to be late. The punishment for showing up late was public execution , so he freed his prisoners, who became his first followers and eventually he overthrew the whole fucking empire.
Because when any tiny sleight is treated with the same punishment as revolution, revolution starts sounding like a pretty good idea

Like, all the tools are baked in, but kids who don’t run into limits grow up to be adults who can’t recognize limits.
givesomefucks@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How to avoid a kid who really likes you?English922·2 days agoTreat him like a grown up.
Be honest that some people need peace and quiet and while you enjoy spending time with him you can’t handle it all the time.
He’s old enough to understand it, and you’ll do a better job explaining it than some 10 year old he knows from school.
Kids are sponges and learn social cues like that really quickly, but someone has to tell them what’s going on. There is absolutely nothing wrong with telling a kid that age to chill out

No one is saying differently…
It’s like anywhere else: some corrupt, some fighting corruption.
You seem to keep misunderstanding what people are saying and trying to extrapolate it into something big.
But you’re starting off with flawed logic

Two very different things

Mexico is like America, there’s variation.
There’s a lot of corruption, but a lot of brave fighters. Down there they literally put their life on the line to run for office.

They’re not even hiding it anymore the only way you can believe this shit is if you legit just believe 100% of what they say.
Noem is purging the DOJ of anyone who says the MS13 wasn’t a real tattoo. And she won’t even say it’s real, she just refuses to answer and that’s what she wants from the whole DOJ.
Lie, and if caught in a provable way, literally pretend it’s not happening.
Shit is very fucked.

Oh ok.
Yeah, we all knew this was your alt. If you have so many accounts, why do you care so much when one is banned?
givesomefucks@lemmy.worldto Lemmy.world Support@lemmy.world•Is world news moderated?English31·3 days agoOP is ignoring what got the insults…
Its inappropriate for any member to rise, rip a bill in half and start to yell like an animal during a session. Its a modern civilized country with rules and laws, you must act like a normal person.
If you get to yell and scream and do whatever you want, what kind of a county are you creating.
But, those are all relatively recent comments on an old thread, if no one reports it, mods will likely never see it.
It’s not like they just constantly refresh every post looking for new comments.

AI people always want to ignore the environmental damage as well…
Like all that electricity and water are just super abundant things humans have plenty of.
Everytime some idiot asks AI instead of googling it themselves the planet gets a little more fucked
