Constance Variable (lambadalambda@social.heldscal.la)'s status on Thursday, 13-Oct-2016 11:19:17 UTC Constance Variable In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defence of the indefensible. Things like the continuance of British rule in India, the Russian purges and deportations, the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan, can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face, and which do not square with the professed aims of political parties. Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness. Defenceless villages are bombarded from the air, the inhabitants driven out into the countryside, the cattle machine-gunned, the huts set on fire with incendiary bullets: this is called pacification. Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population or rectification of frontiers. People are imprisoned for years without trial, or shot in the back of the neck or sent to die of scurvy in Arctic lumber camps: this is called elimination of unreliable elements. Such phraseology is needed if one wants to name things without calling up mental pictures of them. -

Hattie Cat (hattiecat@quitter.no)'s status on Thursday, 13-Oct-2016 08:55:55 UTC Hattie Cat @kzimmermann Could you post a reference? I2P, FreeNet and GnuNet all have different characteristics and states of development so a survey paper would be useful. -

Paul Pritchard (expatpaul@quitter.se)'s status on Thursday, 13-Oct-2016 09:05:45 UTC Paul Pritchard @clacke In the short term, yes. But the smoke smell clears eventually whereas the vape pot sits there, all day. Stinking -

Paul Pritchard (expatpaul@quitter.se)'s status on Thursday, 13-Oct-2016 08:46:45 UTC Paul Pritchard @clacke Not when you have to spend all day sitting next to a vaper. The smell is sickly and never goes away. -

Its a large market controlled by a few big corporations.

Arun Isaac (அருண் ஐசக்) (arunisaac@social.systemreboot.net)'s status on Wednesday, 12-Oct-2016 18:54:19 UTC Arun Isaac (அருண் ஐசக்) Surprised by the number of #brands that #Unilever -- a single multinational corporation -- controls. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unilever_brands At some level, I always assumed that these were products produced by distinct companies. The free market is a bad joke. !evilcorpos In conversation from social.systemreboot.net permalink Repeated by clackemovedtoheldscalla Attachments
