That's good to know, thank you for the explanation. Stories don't always get the chance to gather the sufficient amount of up votes before being nipped in the bud by dissatisfied flaggers though, depending on the time of day. Some

I get the irony, but its a bit meaningless since we can't compare the quantity of these (yet) uncensored posts with those that have been taken down, and thus aren't visible. More importantly, other commentors here have already adm

That's a dumb take. Burying your head in the sand won't change reality. If you cared to even watch the content you flagged, you'd have seen one of the former prisoners was a young college student with no criminal ties. I'

Thanks for sharing. The way things are here, this will soon be censored - sorry, I meant flagged - here as well.

That's not a hard question. Any country that invaded, plundered and destroyed democracies less than the US has in the last hundred years.

Sad state of affairs that this gets flagged. Any critical coverage of the American regime is censored.

Yes, I'm aware. There are literally thousands of years of sino-korean wars, so its hard to pin that blame on a specific government. Tibet is a more straightforward case of imperial expansionism from China, although it is also a centuri

Why? China is the alternative. How many countries has China waged war against, toppled democratic governments, established puppet março-states and invaded since 1949?

Snarkiness is not appreciated here. Well, at least officially. No, that wouldn't make me happy. A world without suffering and oppression would make me happy, but failing that, lets at least try to use words appropriately.

Doesn't martyrdom imply, um, death? I don't care about the specific politics, and I don't know his biography. You can love this man and hate China with the power of every cell in your body. But calling anyone a martyr, even w

Really different questions with different answers. If it were just for my own care-free leisure and benefit, I would probably go to school again and try some other academic path in math, physics or history. Or rekindle my CS study and do a

This is the best answer. Although cool, I can see how this product will just inhibit instead of enabling creativity and play in kids. Instead of having to draw something to see it, refining the drawing over minutes or hours, the kid will ju

I share the sentiment about the state of things but can't relate to whether any of it is literally inevitable or not. To me it just doesn't matter. Inevitable or not, this is the world we live in, and its not like I (or any group

Leverage. Those slops already existed, but AI scales them by an order of magnitude. I guess the same can be said of any technology, but AI is just a more powerful tool overall. Using languages as an example - lets say duck typing allowed a

Not sure about the "ever recorded" part - how far back are we talking? There were some pretty massive waves of illegal aliens flooding the East Coast back in the 1600s.
