@Dossetia @derpo377 The article: pastemagazine.com/movies/star-wa…
It links to the author's own article defending the prequel trilogy, so it's self-deprecatingly referring to himself

@lostinnejd Didn't arabs kill all the princes of Persia???

@T__migratorius @business @akritiisharma By @T__migratorius if you chickened out, I don’t mind at all. I suspected you always had a double digit IQ. But not responding confirms you have decimal level IQ.

“Bhajan clubbing” is drawing Gen Z crowds across India. No alcohol, no DJs. Just performers leading Hindu devotional songs set to bass-heavy beats. It’s part of a wider shift reshaping how young Indians are engaging with the faith.

@TomorrowMan575 @business @akritiisharma "Islam forbids innovation" is possibly the single most ignorant thing I've ever read
English
Dansk
@business @akritiisharma This is why Islam forbids innovation. The religion is made easy for you to follow it rigorously and be in touch with its principles. Trying to bring ppl closer to it with similar methods or innovations isn’t allowed.

@T__migratorius @amijudjes @harriepw So you are advocating for domestic terrorism? You won’t like how it plays out for you 🤣
English
BREAKING: A court will seek to sentence four Palestine Action activists found guilty of criminal damage as terrorists even though they were not convicted of terror charges, in a move kept secret from the jury.
English
@jaywhitehouse19 @amijudjes @harriepw Like why should anyone care about the spine of one British pig when all our taxes are paying for kids to be blown up by the dozens? The West is comprehensively morally deranged
English
@T__migratorius @amijudjes @harriepw He hit a policewoman in the back with a sledgehammer and fractured her spine. Their political goal is to stop arms sales to Israel, what they did is the definition of domestic terrorism. They are rats, and you are a rat for defending them 🤷♂️
English
@jaywhitehouse19 @amijudjes @harriepw If the UK followed international law and cut ties with Israel, this would never have happened. The UK government supports IDF terrorists and then calls its own people terrorists for resisting in the only way they physically can. Actual shithole nation.
English
@JD2DG @amijudjes @jaywhitehouse19 @harriepw Fair. Either way, the entire case is a brazen act of political persecution. The UK has cemented its status as a 3rd world country
English
@T__migratorius @amijudjes @jaywhitehouse19 @harriepw Works same way in US.
Aggravating factors are only a sentencing thing.
English
@JD2DG @amijudjes @jaywhitehouse19 @harriepw I still don't understand why the jury doesn't have to know all of the aggravating factors? From the outside, this really does look like the type of miscarriage of justice that only happens in third world countries.
English
@T__migratorius @amijudjes @jaywhitehouse19 @harriepw The charge is what they were charged with.
This is factor in sentencing. If you're convicted of burglary in UK you get anywhere between 6 months and 14 years in jail. The more negative factors in sentencing, the closer to 14 years in custody you'll get.

@DannyVegito Surely the FBI is smart enough to know that ancaps aren't real anarchists 😭
English
The gestapo corner me in an alley, but before they can pull their triggers I clarify that I’m a Marxist not an anarchist. The embarrassed enforcers let me go and profusely apologize for the misunderstanding before they turn around and dump their mags into an anarcho-capitalist.
Pop Base@PopBase
The White House says they will “identify and neutralise” political groups that are anti-American, “radically pro-transgender” and anarchist. (whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl…)

The issue of translating "polytropos" into the English language is centuries old and unlikely to be resolved by you, a rando online who doesn't know Greek
Roman Helmet Guy@romanhelmetguy
In Emily Wilson’s own explanation of why she misleadingly translated ‘polytropos’ (literally ‘many-turned’ or ‘many-turning’) to the pejorative epithet ‘complicated’ when describing Odysseus, she gives the correct translation:

@GarrickKingston @nordic_ned You have doubled down on so many stupid points during this thread that I don't even know which opinion you're referring to
English
@T__migratorius @nordic_ned I gave my opinion, supporting it with reasoning and evidence.
Ever since then I've been inundated with pants-pissing Humpty-Dumpty relativists telling me I'm wrong because words mean whatever anyone wants them to.
I've not given an inch, nor advanced. Sorry if that annoys you.
English
@GarrickKingston @nordic_ned The starting point of this entire conversation was that people way smarter than either of us disagree on the meaning of the word being translated.
Who the fuck made YOU the judge of accuracy?
English
@T__migratorius @nordic_ned That's pretty funny, coming from someone who tried to overrule me with a dictionary definition that didn't even agree with his own argument.
But sure, tell us again how accuracy doesn't matter in translations of classical literature because it's all fantasy. I liked that one. 😂
English
@GarrickKingston @nordic_ned calling me a clown while being a linguistic prescriptivist is goofy
English
@GarrickKingston @nordic_ned "the more precisely you use them the better you will be able to communicate"
in the context of a translation of a fantasy poem written thousands of years ago in a dead language, this is simply not true
English
@T__migratorius @nordic_ned It's also common knowledge that words have meanings, and the more precisely you use them the better you will be able to communicate.
If you can't tell a poodle from a dachshund, you'll call both of them 'a dog.' That doesn't make you wrong, but it certainly makes you less right.

Are you unironically claiming that John Brown damaged the anti slavery movement lol

@DykeStasiAgent John brown accomplished nothing but alienation of people who would’ve opposed slavery
