Here's one, it's just the video of the fight, literally nothing happened:

Not riverboat businesses, rather we have plenty of restaurants and clubs on rafts on the Danube river in belgrade.
But that's the least of our worries rn, we had elections last week and the current president and government organized massive theft of the elections. There have been massive protests for a week since. They drove people from Bosnia to vote in our elections, hell the Bosnian minister of security voted in the Belgrade mayoral elections and proudly posted about it on twitter. Apparently he's a resdient of Belgrade lol. Last night they sent a thousand cops at us to beat us up and break up the protest. Today student orgs are blocking infrastructure in Belgrade, and from 6pm we're going to the parliament building again to block it off.
Our president claimed that there were barely a thousand people gathered when he spoke through state media:

For the uninitiated our current president is Aleksandar Vucic, also known as Milosevic's minister of propaganda.
Yeah, equation nazism with germans in general and zionism with jews in general is an insane self report.
Exactly this, you need to ground this type of argument in material analysis. Getting into a moral grandstanding contest with libs is an extremely pointless waste of time. Noone likes civilian (debatable how innocent you can claim israeli citizens are when they are actively participating in settler colonialism) casualties, what's the cause? How do you stop it? By dissolving the illegal state of Israel.
It seems pretty hard not to get an eco label if you at all care about the environment.

Here are my results, according to their own scales I should much better fit anarcho-syndycalism/communism (which I am), but I got an eco-anarchist label lol.
Americans are actually gonna make a human rabbies virus epidemic happen aren't they?
It's disappointing but necessarily surprising tbh. China has been doing state capitalism for a while now.
As for your question these statistics aren't necessarily contradictory to the idea of extreme poverty being reduced/eradicated. As this is basically a measure of wealth inequality, and while it might be worse than pre revolution, the standard of life is undoubtedly much higher. This is a result of China's explosive economic growth, there is simply way more wealth in China than ever before. So a higher wealth inequality isn't necessarily a good indicator of poverty. It is however an apt representation of the CCP's economic policies over the past two decades and is a good indicator that poverty will rise once China's growth slows down if wealth inequality isn't addresed.
Do you seriously beleive that the only way people with disabilities are being discriminated against is in the form of being unable to work as productively and are therefore unable to provide for themselves under capitalism?
I definitely agree. The approach lemmy world took of catering to the reddit crowd and trying to become the biggest instance hosting all communities in one place was always doomed to create that sort of atmosphere. And open sign ups are a part of that issue. I spent a pretty long time on lemmy before making an account and settling on dbzer0 because it's an anarchist instance. And people should've been encouraged to find an instance that's right for them.
I've already blocked world since I'm using connect and my browsing experience is so much better again. The amount of reddit libs on .world is completely insufferable.
The word has effectively lost all meaning starting with neolib youtubers posing as leftists ( think Vaush etc). I'm an anarchist and got called a tankie for debunking propaganda against 20th century socialist projects. I have my critiques of the communist projects and leaders of the 20th century but apparently if I don't buy CIA propaganda that makes me a tankie.
Oh I always take any reporting on China by western media with a grain of salt (the amount varying by the outlet in question). I haven't quite made up my mind on Uighur thing as I haven't had the time to properly research it myself (a lot of irl stuff going on) but I'm approaching the topic with scepticism.
I mainly linked the article for the interview and it's description of the state of things for the lgbtq+ community in China which seems to be pretty similar to what an onilne friend from China described. Althoguh the language used around the topic and some of the conclusions (interpretations) in the article are pretty weird.
In retrospect I probably should've put a disclaimer that I don't endorse the entirety of the article.
Highly recommend reading the actual article from which I assume the previous commenter got fear info from: https://www.hackingbutlegal.com/p/naomi-wu-and-the-silence-that-speaks-volumes?
The article contains an interview with Naomi aswell.
Also as a slight correction the third strike could lead to years in prison according to the article, not a single year.
Idk why you would ever allow r/196 to move to your instance. I had to unsub from that place like a year before I even moved to Lemmy. I'm not trans so maybe my perspective is a bit skewed but that place always seemed to fetishize trans people so much, especially mtf. Also the users there seemed very keen on pushing one specific way to be trans as valid. When anyone in the comments would complain about any of this they would be downvoted to hell. I'm of the mind that even if you don't think you're doing anything objectively wrong if people complain that it's hurtful you should try to be accommodating, especially in a trans place/community. I genuinely don't understand why you would allow that kind of community to migrate to your instance if you have a goal of building a safe space for queer people.
On a different note I specifically avoided blahaj when trying to find an instance to settle on cause I saw 196 was there, so I guess I dodged a bullet.
Hi, could you perhaps elaborate a bit on the racist history of the bell curve? I'm well aware of the racist history of IQ, but I don't even have an inkling of what that's referring to in the context of the bell curve. It's just the graph of a normal distribution, is this referring to some weird application of it to some racist shit?
PS: I know you've attached a video with info on it and me asking might be kinda dumb. However, I saw it's 2+hrs and I don't have the time to watch it right now but I'm still interested.
The neat part about writing your resume is that you can leave out parts of your employment history that make you look "bad" (kinda like japan does with WWII). So let's say you had 4 jobs over the course of a year, skip the two jobs that you had for the shortest amount of time. After that do some stretching, ex say you started a job a month earlier than you did and tack on a ~month - month and half to the end of it. Now never say you were fired or quit for no reason, you could say that it was a temp position from the start cause your employer had more business that time of the year and that there was no prospect of staying longer from the very start. Try to keep the gaps between jobs small (I'd say two - three months at most). Now if you have a lot of jobs where you quit early on you could just skip that entire part of your employment history and say you starter working later in life. Employers generally don't care about how old you were when you got your first job, and they have no way to get your employment history (some government jobs can and will check tho I think) so don't mention stuff that makes you look bad. And yes this will shorten your work experience but being inexperienced is more desirable than frequent job changes on a resume (dumb af, ik, but it is what it is).
Now regarding embellishing how long you worked at a certain place, the further back the job was the better. Employers will typically only check with your last one or two employers if they check at all ( again some gov jobs might be an exception). One more tip, most place won't keep a digitalized employee database where they could easily search up your contract, so when embellishing try to avoid jobs that you believe might have kept digital records ( like chains etc). A lot of customer facing jobs have a huge turnover anyways so there's a good chance that there's noone you worked with that stil works there, let alone rembers you by name to be able to dispute what you said on your resume. Lastly if you get confronted about embellishing the time you worked a specific job, there's two things you could do: I didn't have my old resume on hand since I haven't worked in 2yrs so I wrote it from memeory or (better imo if you can project confidence during the interview and if you claimed you started earlier than you did) you can claim that you were on a trial position before signing the full contract so the one they looked up probably doesn't reflect your actual time there. If you can sell this with enought confidence they won't bother calling again to check, as it's a perfectly reasonable explanation and they already confirmed you worked there. If you aren't feeling confident about lying about any of these things, first lies by omission are much easier to sell and second just practice with your friends/parents.
Now depending on how confident you are there is another approach (which is more effective imo and it's what I did). You could only list a year on your resume and then just positions and places where you worked during that year (again feel free to omitt some jobs here) without specifying the duration. This lets you wing it during your actual interview where you can meet, judge and lie just enough based on the person interviewing you. It also lets you avoid some lies that would be easily exposed by not telling them in the first place (ex. If your interviewer worked at the place you were gonna lie about there's a good chance they'll mention it when the topic of that job comes up, so you just don't lie about that one). Note that some jobs might not even invite you to an interview without specifying the length of employment at each position, but in such cases, of you notice you aren't hearing back from them at all, you could just reapply with version according to the first approach I gave. Fixing a resume and reapplying is super common and you aren't really losing anything (except some time ofc).
As for the two year gap as some have suggested saying that you worked freelance is an option. If you aren't feeling confident with that approach you could say that you had to take care of a sick/injured parent/relative, they can never get their hands on their medical records and asking about details would feel kinda rude for most people (but not all, so be prepared for questions just in case, but also know that if the question seems to detailed refusing to answer would be pretty normal) so that might be an easier sell.
Anyways hope you find some of this usefull, feel free to ask if you have any questions.
