They forfeited the right to be called my countrymen when they spat on the founding principles of the nation. They are foreign to the American ideal.

1·11 days agoI don’t disbelieve you, but I’d love to see where you’re getting that from. My understanding lacks such an optimistic view of the Pacific theater in WWII.

712·11 days agoWe, notably, did not extend this to Japanese PoWs nearly as much as we did for white Europeans. Now, to be sure, the Japanese did not really… do the whole PoW thing. They often remained as combatants after being captured due to Japanese propoganda about US PoW treatment. But just something to note. The “good guys” did nasty things to win the war. We had to.
They sold these and the strips next to one another at the dollar store when I was a kid. Born '95

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?English
7·16 days agoOne of those “pay what you want models” but backed by peer pressure when they pass the collections basket around. Also, supposedly, you miss features if you go free-to-play, but all those features are end-game anyways as part of the afterlife package and supposedly you can use the confession DLC hack just before you reach end-game so the rest doesn’t really matter.

803·16 days agoThey see no difference. Fox calls him a liberal and a communist. These are buzzwords with no meaning beyond emotional impact. They do not care about political theory.

Leopards Ate My Face@lemmy.world•We Went To Nebraska: The Beef Crisis Will Shock YouEnglish
53·23 days agoDairy, by nature of stress-spoiling, is relatively cruelty-free. That is to say, the profit motive is harmed unless you make the cow feel stress-free. So I’ve never seen how milk, butter, and cheese are not vegan. We make cows happy and get good milk in return, in excess of what the calf needs. Seems like a good trade for an animal that cannot survive without humans.

“Papers. Now.”
There is a simple test to determine if you’re a tankie, specifically.
-
Did Tiananmen Square happen? Specifically, was it bloody, consented/orchestrated by the CCP leadership, and resulted in the deaths of unarmed civilian protesters?
-
Was it wrong that it happened?
If both answers are yes, you’re not a tankie. You believe that oppressive regimes are evil regardless of which side of the political spectrum it spawns from.
Bonus points if you think Stalin was anything but benevolent. If you think his methods were “tough, but firm,” then you’re a tankie.

News@lemmy.world•US military to stop shooting live animals to train medics for the battlefieldEnglish
52·28 days agoIt’s about psychology under fire. The doctors that treat gunshot wounds in a safe, secure ER don’t have to be trained to do so in life threatening situations when the patient can’t be moved to a secure location.
EMTs -do- sometimes experience this, and as someone who knows a former EMT, the experience is psychologically devistating when you’re there on-scene watching someone die.
I would never advocate for causing harm or distress in the name of training. That said, if you needed to desensitize an 18yo wannabe doctor, sticking him in a field with a bunch of pigs, where a drill instructor shoots one right next to them and they have to stabilize the wound right away… Yeah, that’s probably really good training for that specific role…

361·28 days agoIirc they’ll be using gell dummies again. Treating live animals was a way of desensitizing medics to trauma shock. Seeing a living thing in pain creates a startle effect that’s important to train out to save lives. I don’t like the idea, but it makes sense…
