The more accurate allegory I like is tricking yourself into believing that will have to live the life of everyone who as ever lived (like reincarnated once at a time). It still means that you have to kill hitler because you would want to protect all of your other reincarnation experiences, but you’re not necessarily going to torture them alive for fun… maybe for deterrence though.

It’s the most true to the fact that everyone has the same experiences we do, we’re just numb to them. We would act as if the first paragraph were true if we could somehow tap into the consciousness experiences of everyone else. Selfishness is just ignorance

There’s nothing wrong with the lesson here but this sounds fake. Those are the two most superficial stereotypes of class life with no explanation how you bridged that gap. There is a big jump in happiness when you no longer have to worry about making ends meet. From there, you just have to not get caught up in consumer envy.

But hey this is the internet so who knows

That is some badass hair!

To some extent communism could be trading one problem for another authoritarian that doesn’t care. Powerfully influencing culture to be altruistic and not money hungry is probably the real solution but the tangible one would be a big step back toward democratic socialism. Jus my 2 cents

Now that just makes me curious as hell about the original work for bear. Maybe something more similar to the Latin “ursa”?

Does that mean Beowulf means bee wolf in old English?

Yeah I can’t decipher this insanity wolf descendant

It’s honestly better to not

Thank you. I think this nuance is often lost by those barely paying attention

Oh no way. My childhood house was that way. Both floors were ground floors

For any Americans, the 1st floor in Australia (and many other countries) is equivalent to the second floor in America (hence it being above the garage)

No way this isn’t an AI photo

As a boring ass cisgender I approve this message

Yeah. But sorry I don’t wanna get into classified info on Lemmy lol

They don’t aim upwards really because the missile would chase the flare as it falls and bring the defending plane right back into the field of view of the seeker. The flares are supposed to pull the missile away from the aircraft. Source: my plane has flares.

I will also say that “detonating” is a very silly word for this situation because they burn rather than explode. This shouldn’t understate the danger though of ingestion of a burning flare into an engine (modern helicopters like this have small engines that power the rotor) or impact with the rotor which has the potential to cause an even more violent end. If the helicopter is operating with its side doors open, that flare could even enter the cabin and cause serious injury if not loss of the whole aircraft. All of this to protect sales to an evil dictator (NK)

I’m in touch with my friend who is Thunderbird 3 this year

TLDR: Indian government froze the bank accounts of an election competitor so he could not even pay the entry fee to compete. USA said that “we encourages fair, transparent, timely legal processes”. Indian governing party is offended at the accusation and summoned the US diplomat.

Edit: India changed to Indian governing party for accuracy
