I'm not sure if this is a typo on Jacob William Rees-Mogg, or George R.R. Martin

Way to infantalize ... his childish tantrums.

Come on dude. Either there's a standard here or there isn't.

That’s a bit harsh.

He looks more like Mac’s mom. Charlie’s mom might be needy, but she doesn’t look that rough!

Why do you keep posting this link? It's not convincing anybody of the validity of an Argentine claim, it's presumptuous of you to assume people haven't read it, and it doesn't back up a number statements you've made ("The UN asked Great Britain to give the island back to Argentina, but they refused." for instance).

Actually the first colonists were French. The claim was transferred to Spain via a pact between the Bourbon kings of both countries. The Spanish name for The Falklands derives from the French, Îles Malouines, named after Saint-Malo/Sant-Maloù.

The Argentinians only ever occupied the islands for six months, for a penal colony - which ended via mutiny, not military expulsion. They've otherwise been under continuous British occupation since 1833, barring the 1982 war.

I'm English, and by no means pro-English colonialism, but the Argentine claim is spurious nonsense.

Except surely it's the public who end up reaping. DNC don't give a fuck. Consequences don't land on them.

Yeah that’s what I mean. Same as .dj is Djibouti, but people use it for music; or .mu (Mauritius) or .am / .fm (Armenia/Federated States of Micronesia); .io (Indian Ocean Territory) for tech (from Input/Output); .gg (Guernsey) for gaming or gambling; or .tv (Tuvalu) for Television.

.ml means 'Marxist-Leninist'. From their about page:

"In particular, I would like to see someone (or a group of people) create a mainstream, or liberal instance. That should help to avoid further drama, and avoid attempts to turn lemmy.ml into something that it is not."

Hey, I can think what happened in Eastern Europe was just authoritarian dictatorships, backed by Muscovite colonialism & branded as communism just the same as what happened in parts of South America was just authoritarian dictatorship, backed by American imperialism & branded as laissez-faire capitalism.

Also I can think communism has never actually been tried, and that it’s functionally impossible (therefore people should stop advocating for it).
