Parents could not keep up with fast pace of emerging technologies.

I’m not defending the ban on porn, I’m just saying.

Should we tell him?

Yeah, some instances turned to be haven for these tankies. It took me a while before I realised that lemmy.ml is pretty much run by them.

How else does the word “wrong” mean. You braindead jackass.

I’d say a left-wing activist type

Which is cringe inducing in looking for certain types of left-wingers. There are more tankies here than in other Internet forums I have seen. I’d be rich for penny I get for meeting tankies in Lemmy. They call out American imperialism, but then simp for Russia and China. Two wrongs don’t make a right and they expect to have one but not the other. Though, I wouldn’t be surprised if Russian bots have also infiltrated Lemmy to sow disinformation.

whose into tech

Doesn’t sound different from the early days of Reddit.

Two wrongs don’t make a right, you cow.

Current goals? In my experience, it depends on the speaker’s mood. If the person feel sad, they think of a cherrypicked happy moment in the past. Or, having a superiority complex and looking down on younger folks. I have read that the former response provides a natural antidepressant effect when one is feeling sad.

You’re probably not far from being correct on that one.

Why Trump isn’t banned in all of the country’s ballot is beyond me.

The new government just sacked the entire staff of TPV, the previous right wing government’s propaganda TV station.

In every past conflict in history Russia traditionally does terrible in the first few years of a conflict and absorbs staggering losses but is able to figure out what works and ultimately wins.

That’s patently wrong. Russia at best has very mixed records. They don’t win every conflict. Take the Crimean War, Russo-Japanese War, World War I, invasion of Afghanistan and Chechen Wars. There is the famous adage: Russia is neither weak nor strong.

Russia and Ukraine are on a stalemate. We don’t know how long this will last. But stalemate does not necessarily mean winning or losing.

It’s too early to tell if Ukraine will actually win or lose. This war has unexpected surprises from both sides. Although I will say that the stalemate is in Putin’s favour. The longer the war drags on, the more the Western support could diminish and he could bide time until Trump returns and American support might withdraw. But even if Russia wins or get concessions, the resulting demographic crisis, financial cost and loss of international image is pyrrhic victory.

Sounds like Navalny was hidden so that he won’t be able to send his file for candidacy in time for the Russian presidential election.

North Korea had higher standards of living than South Korea until the 1980s. Bombing hasn’t really got anything to with how bad North Korean system is.

NATO intervention in Yugoslav wars, too. And American involvement in World War 2.

I think people should read more about media theory. Especially “The Medium is The Message”.

I think people miss the keyword “social”.

Well, people have been sending mails before just for fun. Hence the phenomenon of “penpals”.

No matter how much you rationalise it, forum is still a social media. You are still socialising after all-- in a medium of communication. You can still post pictures in forums if you want, but modern social platforms just have better UI and convenience to post videos and photos than older forums.
