ONLY if it's an open standard anyone can make readers and tape for.
Especially not a fan of getting fucked over when the company randomly decides to discontinue the product line when the whole point of the product is long term data archival.
Exiting unions, as British as spotted dick.
You mean to tell me raining death and cruelty upon civilians of a country because you think they're extremists/terrorists ends up being the reason those ideologies expand and concentrate?
Strange. That never happened with the Palestinians, why is it happening here? 🤔
Interesting. I don't agree with that nor a lot of your assessment on communists but I appreciate you answering, thanks.
That's why I asked if it's accurate for me to say that. I assume your answer is no?
Why don't you tell me why you think we oppose the EU's authoritarianism but not communist authoritarianism then. Genuinely curious to know your real thoughts if my assumption was incorrect.
You didn't answer the question. Would you support a blanket ban of a news outlet by any government as long as a pattern of disinformation can be objectively shown? Like China or North Korea banning RFA, the news outlet with verifiably bullshit articles that even other Western outlets have debunked? Or is that privilege reserved for "the good guys" in your mind?
You commented this earlier:
what I don’t really understand about some of the posting here is that there are many proud authoritarians of the communist variety getting upset about authoritarian laws
You say you don't understand I think you already have an answer. Is it accurate for me to say that you think it's because we support pretty much anything done by a communist government against the West, and oppose anything done by Western liberal government against communist countries? I.e. we're solely looking at who did something when deciding whether to support it instead of the merits of the thing itself? If so, I'm throwing that accusation right back at you. I think you blindly support pretty much anything Western governments do as long as it's against one of the West's enemies and blindly oppose anything communist governments do against the West.
if a specific source is a regular source of disinformation then you can understand blanket bans on said source
So if it can be shown objectively that a given Western source repeatedly spreads disinformation about a given socialist/anti-Western country, you would support a blanket ban from the government of that country using the same logic you're giving for supporting the EU's blanket ban, right?
Riiiiight?
The ban of RT is in place already
How authoritarian of them
What's the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.
null, it was so unladen it starved to death.
Ah but you see, there's no free speech in Russia. Posting anything could get you imprisoned by the orc regime. For that reason, it would have been authoritarian of us to not criminalise RT, actually.
Hope that makes sense 👍🇪🇺
Why do people like you even bother commenting stuff like this instead of just blocking us?
Genuinely curious.
What do you gain from commenting this? Why is it worth the apparent mental anguish of continuing to see our posts?
Infantino just sounds like a nickname for Trump lol
