You’ve read Caesar’s works too??

I love these posts on LinkedIn. Tbh I love the similar serious posts too singe they’re so unhinged

They might have some rule about carding everyone

Exactly. Just have a system that has basically no other info than “they had a valid token showing they’re 18”. Nobody does anything with that info if there’s a data breach.

I wonder how different Linux distros are going to implement this

Incompetence is one big reason why current style systems are just a no-go for me.

That’s really what the whole rest of my reply was about. We need a system more like carding and less like giving them copy of your passport.

It was just a bit much with the different aspects of it

I’m not against proper age verifications as such, it would be like carding people in a store or a bar. But I just haven’t seen an implementation of it that isn’t prone to being a privacy nightmare and surveillance state shit.

I know there’s some systems that generate a token that verify that you are 18 and you give that to the site, so neither side directly meet so to say. The site knows only that you have a valid token for being 18 and the app or service you use to generate the token knows just that you wanted to token for something. I think Spain was figuring out a system like that.

Your disagreement with the analysts and the articles has been noted. I don’t think there’s anything else to do here than agree to disagree.

You don’t think it fits, but the sources in the article certainly do.

Moreover, Wikipedia is saying some analysts, not even taking a definitive stance itself.

Wikipedia uses that sort of wording pretty often

I know you disagree with the analysts. I was just posting this to show that maybe the view on Wikipedia doesn’t align with you after all, in actual words or in “cut off” extra definitions.

Wikipedia is a very popular site that usually uses very common definitions as their basis. That’s why I originally used it.

Russia is clearly trying to create a local hegemony and using rhetoric from their imperialistic history. Well put here:

There’s also a whole article

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_imperialism#Contemporary_Russian_imperialism

So they are not in the articles but you just feel like those are included, even though they don’t actually include it in words.

You could post the “cut off” parts here so we can see that they are indeed in the articles as requirements and not additions as I’ve said.

I’m saying I’m not trying to define their identity for them. I’m happy to just go with this

I wouldn’t be able to tell Portuguese and Brazilian people apart either. I hope that doesn’t erase their identities.

You claimed the definitions I posted had those additional requirements and that the articles agreed with you. Now you are having a big issue with the definitions and the articles. I was fine with you using your preferred definition so I’m not sure why you even had that particular fight.

Krhm. I said, I’d be happy to see you point out those parts in the actual articles. You didn’t do that. But interestingly, the article on imperialism does include this

If I’m in support of their invasion, annexation, expansion and creation of buffer state it doesn’t change anything about the actual actions. And it’s the actions and not the language that makes one an empire.

Secondly, no, I’m not adding.

parts of those summaries that explain the economic factor

I’d be happy to see you point out those parts in the actual articles. As a matter of fact, the imperialism article even has this addition about colonialism

My support doesn’t have any bearing on the definition of the word or what is actually happening. I’m flattered you think it does though.
