I don’t know, but I think more Germans per capita are fluent in English than French, Spanish, or Latino people are, and maybe that has something to do with it.

Even if it were to exist in the short run, it wouldn’t be stable. The predictor must be predicting somehow, which eventually could be at least partially sussed out, and future decisions would change as a result. Unless the predictor runs on literal magic, it would eventually no longer fit its own definition.

Mmmm, this sounds like an idealist hypothetical problem that in reality can’t exist, so to engage with it is to engage with nonsense.

The predictor rarely makes mistakes because… just because. It’s axiomatic. The predictor runs on the magic of unsupported assertion.

Are you not dismissing every other type of sausage, or did just not consider them? Because if this is about lips & assholes, almost all of them are all lips & assholes.

I don’t know. Why don’t you ask them next time?

I’ve learned that I’ll never learn.

There is always a well-known solution to every human problem—neat, plausible, and wrong. — Mencken

People not only don’t know what’s happening to them, they don’t even know that they don’t know. — Chomsky

They were and are, in spite of the US’ efforts to wreak havoc via Salafi Jihad terrorists.

We assassinated the president and covered it up so that we can more easily identify conspiracy theorists.

How is there any utility in being able to identify a few crackpots—only the ones who happen to crack their pot on this one particular event? How is Identifying crackpots of any use to the state?

We know all the same stuff that you know—because we used to be you—and a bunch of other stuff that you don’t know.

Yet somehow it is we who’re ignorant.

This propaganda supports their preconceptions, which came from a lifetime of similar propaganda. They’re not interested in investigating their unexamined priors.

Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of “Brainwashing”

(AP) Associated Propaganda 🙄

This isn’t my bailiwick, but I think Peter Dale Scott and Arron Good may have some of the best answers. I don’t pay much attention to the matter, but IIRC, James Angleton and the Dulles brothers very likely were involved. It helps to ask: who covered up what really happened?

Other than an accomplished sniper, I don’t know. I’m more interested in who had him killed.

What are the Honda Dax 125 or the BMW Gold Wing w/DCT then?

I think this pedantry is rooted in fragile masculinity.

Also, kilts are skirts.

No Investigation, No Right to Speak

Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn’t that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense. Talking nonsense solves no problems, as everyone knows, so why is it unjust to deprive you of the right to speak? Quite a few comrades always keep their eyes shut and talk nonsense, and for a Communist that is disgraceful. How can a Communist keep his eyes shut and talk nonsense?

It won’ t do!

It won’t do!

You must investigate!

You must not talk nonsense!

They’re called “communities,” hence the “c/”.

BTW, c/asklemmy is expressly not a community for questions about Lemmy. Please read a community’s rules before posting.

And it so happens I discovered it and installed it yesterday, out of frustration with asdf.

c/asklemmy isn’t supposed to be a relationship advice forum. It’s supposed to be Lemmy’s version of r/askreddit.
