Lol please do it, it'd be funny.

I mean, Russia is being worse to LGBT people compared to China's treatment of LGBT people, so I guess its a slight improvement?

But then, the firewall is much superior to russia's, so its gonna get harder to bypass censorship.

But good news, they gets free re-education to learn Social Harmony, and love peace, and love Xinnie the Pooh!

Also, no more pronoun issues. Pronouns are always 他/他 (pronounced tā), gendered pronouns are a thing of the past. (Chinese language does not really use gendered pronouns)

No idea why it boils down to treatment of LGBT, as if that is the only group that is consistently fucked with.

Welcome to Lemmy. We have only three topics - LGBT, Linux and USA politics ( lately rebranded to TrumpElon ).

You forgot vegan cats.

Indeed. "Women hold up half the sky", my left buttock. The current Chinese economy is built on the bones of millions of little girls. When they invade Russia client states, then start pressuring the borders of Russia itself, I have no idea who to favor. I'll just keep planting sunflowers.

A big portion of population might go the way of Uyghurs which is not great.

[-] modeler@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

They might not use genered pronouns, but they do a lot of referring to people as uncle/auntie/big sister/little brother and the like.

Less pro, more noun. Gotcha.

他(male) and 她(female), no?

And also 它 for animal/object

Or at least that's what i learn when i'm in school, not sure if anything change.

If you write 他 to refer to a woman on a test essay, you'd still get marked correct.

Writing 她 to refer to a man would be incorrect.

Basically

他 = He OR She

她 = She

它 = It (refer to objects and non-human animals)

他 is what gets used all the time to refer to both genders. 她 is rarely used, unless maybe in an English class to teach the difference between the English pronouns He and She.

Also, they are all pronounced the same: (tā)

You are correct. 他 for he, and 她 for she. However since they all sound the same, they're only distinguished in writing.

[-] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 9 points 4 days ago

It's not that they sound the same; they are the same and are just written differently. It was all 他 until in the 20th (I think) century they created 她 and 它 and made 他 for males only to make the language more European.

holy shit I think you're right! I feel like I've seen your claim somewhere else

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
