    I did actually used line break in between the 5 styles.

    But it appeared in one line. Dunno why.

    It appeared in one line because you did not end your lines with two spaces.
    You write a line. Then you press the Space bar. Then you press the Space bar again.
    And then you press Enter.

    If you want a line break without having an empty line in between, end the line with two spaces.

    This
    is
    actually
    possible.

    The text formatting system used on Piefed and Lemmy is called Markup. You can find an excellent short Markup tutorial in the net. It’ll teach the rest.


  • They have the same intent, but there’s no proof that there is a plan to really actively murder all Palestinians. Also, people in Gaza now have about as much food to eat as inmates of Nazi concentration camps had in the first half of 1940’s, but the rest of the horrible torture is not being done.

    So, basically, people are okay with what the Nazis did between 1932 and 1941. But from 1941 onwards, Nazis went over some line that is not acceptable.

    In my opinion, Nazis were horribly evil already in 1932 and what they did back then was already absolutely condemnable, but it seems that most people in our society don’t share my view on this. You are allowed to commit a genocide using starvation and bullets, like the Nazis did until 1941, but when you start using actual gas chambers, it becomes a no-no.




  • Whenever I’m going abroad within Europe, for a bit over month before that, I start buying stuff only with banknotes. I put all of the coins made in Finland or (other) Baltic countries in a separate pocket and then make sure to use those during my travel.

    It feels nice that people get to see coins that they don’t see that often. And at the same time, I’m increasing the relative amount of non-Finnish coins in Finland, which I also think is good, as that helps people here notice that there’s more to the EU than just Finland :)

    I would guess it’s unlikely that all that many other people do the same.












  • I almost completely agree with PM_ME_etc. Even to the part that yes, you are afraid of China and Chinese cultures in ways that are not necessary.

    At the same time, it is China’s goal to turn the west towards authoritarianism. Many parts of MAGA’s political goals are coaligned with those of China, even if their goals regarding economy politics are extremely different.

    Currently an increasing share of the western consumption is fed by factories in China. We’re currently practically completely able to produce mobile phones without China, because even if the phone is made in Mexico or South Korea, it is still made of Chinese components, such as the tiny torx screws not made in scale in a reasonable quality anywhere else than China.
    Eventually China will shut down that trade. It will hurt China, but if as a consequence China can get us under its command, they will gain more than they lose.

    Currently it would be extremely crucial to support industrial production practically anywhere outside China, some clear cases, such as NK, of course excluded. An amount of sinophobia is very necessary to make this happen!


  • This shows very well to what extent China is communist.

    • nationalizing industries: yes
    • making industries worker-controlled
    • private property partially abolished
    • workers’ rights even less supported than in USA
    • capitalist class being steadily empowered (they are getting increasingly rich and disconnected from the workers, even if their companies do have to follow the state lead than in more civilized countries)
    • wealth is being moved to the wealthy (albeit not nearly as fast as in USA)

    Of course this only tells whether China is.following its own official ideology, not whether what someone else does fulfills that ideology or not.


  • the people who hold the other keys are the ones most likely to lead a coup against putin.

    They are also ones that will absolutely, unavoidably, get informed if Putin wants to launch nuclear weapons. It’s unlikely they will agree, so if Putin ever is to ask them to use their “keys”, he will show himself as an utmost danger to their lives, and they will therefore organize Putin to die within the next 15 minutes or so. And if he manages to hide in a bunker, he will be completely isolated there and will de facto no longer be the POTRF.
    Someone else will then take over.
