One atom says to the other "I think I've lost an electron!"

"Are you sure?"

"I'm positive"

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

Interesting that you think you have more of a handle on the definition of apartheid than Desmond Tutu https://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/apr/29/comment

So when the National Party government in South Africa imposed restrictions on travel between made-up areas that basically nobody else in the world recognized as separate countries, that was also not apartheid?

2-5% of the population of Gaza has been killed in the last year, close to the entire population is homeless, Israeli military leaders are openly saying, in English, that their goal is for all the Palestinians to leave to other countries.

What definition of genocide are you using where the current situation does not count?

carbrained bullshit from the guardian as usual. do they wanna cite statistics or even a source on "many motorists, however, resent the changes"? of course not, evidence-free bothsidesing of vehicular deaths it is

this is an amazing study in how to go carefully, point-by-point, through something, and refute none of it.

There might be something on the wiki, in the meantime how I decide is:

  • if it's a single expanse of poured concrete it's Concrete
  • if there is dirt / grass between two parallel tracks of concrete (whether or not the tracks have any joins) it's Concrete Lanes
  • if it's just concrete but there are seams where it's been poured separately, Concrete Slabs

And if it's anything else I skip.

a lot of landlords are way ahead of you already...

 

There are a bunch of well-researched lists of US government atrocities (including "List of Atrocities committed by US authorities" Lemmy's own @dessalines@lemmy.ml.

But I can't find an equivalent for the UK government, just "5 worst atrocities" listicles, and this too-specific and incomplete list fof "war crimes" on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_war_crimes

Well done UK government propaganda department, I guess 😕

Anyone know of a better list squirrelled away somewhere, or some resources which might help make one?
