I read rule five to apply to “how do you subscribe to an instance” or other Lemmy customer support type questions. That rule doesn’t prohibit op’s post in my opinion. But I’ll certainly stand corrected if a mod tells me otherwise… If so, that rule should be rewritten.
I absent-mindedly hummed the theme to Coach (a 90s sitcom) during class in which the teacher was a football coach… He sent me to detention for it.
Against a government with modern weaponry? Yes.
So you understood what I was getting at? Language is descriptive, not proscriptive. People who make fun of others for jargon or misuse typically don’t have much going for their argument or position.

I see u! How much are they paying you to ferment chaos?
2023 refugee reporting in. Couldn’t give up the Sync life.
Pobodies nerfect…
My comment was responding to another comment (which referred to heads of state). I wasn’t responding to the original post. You then responded to my comment which was a sub comment to the post that I guess you really wanted to respond to…Try to keep up.
Perfection is the enemy of the good. I don’t know why you are obsessed with child rape…
Ok, historically some political leaders felt that raping all brides before their wedding night was a great honor bestowed upon the family. Egyptian royalty had slaves, family members and pets murdered or buried alive with them when they died.
Human history is full of it’s leaders doing shitty and horrendous things… We can either sit here and microanalyze whatever country or set of leaders we want to single out or just recognize that historically everybody in power was a piece of shit, and look for ways to do better and make our leaders do better.
Does anyone here think that the United States and the world is better off with Donald Trump in power as opposed to Kamala Harris? If your answer to that question is " but Kamala supported Israel too hard"… Then my original comment about perfection and goodness is for you.
Instead of actually working towards something better, let’s just spend our time arguing over things we can’t change. /S
Perfection is the enemy of good.
I agree with most of your individual points… But your thesis relies on a false assumption.
Capitalism is the current problem for 95% of the world… Just like monarchies were a problem for that particular country. Just because many political and economic systems throughout history reflect an aspect of human nature to control and bequeath that control to their offspring, doesn’t take capitalism off the hook. Hell, if that were the case, we could blame everything on the evolutionary drive to be sexually successful, and not place the blame on anyone or anything else. That’s what those at the top would love the rest of us to believe.
The first 12 episodes or so are well done monster of the week sci fi… Then buckle the fuck up! The world building, performances and storyline represents my favorite sci-fi show of all time
Btw, Dollhouse is a similar vibe and similar quality, but much less grand in its execution.
