Screw community names, I want instance agnostic URLs for posts and comments.

Right now lemmy.ml/comment/123456 and lemmy.ml/comment/123456 are two different comments, and there is no simple way to find one comment on another instance (so you can interact with it from your logged in account). What we should have is lemmy.ml/comment/[email protected] to point to a comment made on another instance, then you can just change the instance name after the @ to find the comment (or post) on any other instance.

Go one further, edit and delete all your posts.

You should bear in mind, PowerDeleteSuite doesn't get everything. It can only see what's in your reddit profile under New, Top, Hot & Controversial - there will be numerous posts that are too old with only 1 or a few karma that aren't displayed in these lists. In particular, if you go through your top posts of all time, you might find some replies to these posts that you made that the script did not see.

The GDPR archive gives a full list of all the comments. What we need is a FOSS script that can use these csv files to get everything. Apparently Shreddit can take the csv files, however you have to pay $15 to use this feature.

How about letting redditors vote that CEOs shouldn't get a golden parachute?

How about shareholders sacking a paedophile CEO for gross misconduct with no golden parachute?

One can only dream.

But seriously though, the people of Taiwan do not consider themselves to be Chinese.

It's kind of funny, China acquires regions and demands the people adopt their nationality. Meanwhile, with the US the various states willingly adopted the nationality. Hell Puerto Rican people still have to press that point, in spite of being the 50th state for over 100 years, but they do so willingly - meanwhile the people of Hong Kong do what they can to flee the Chinese invasion.

Damn, if only fish knew to latch onto bait like you :D

“Chinese crap” is what allows America to build F-35 fighter jets, the same crap that also commands 45 to 50 percent of total shipbuilding globally.

Taiwanese =/= Chinese ;)

Hah full blown aggression, I hope you're paid per ascii character.

Pick a lane.

I've told you my lane. My heels are in the sand, and I call out bullshit wherever I see it. You're just so far on one side you can't acknowledge that I'm on your side with some things.

You said I haven’t given any detail and that I linked you detailed articles explaining things.

I summarised this:

So, your argument is that people arguing in the 1990s that expansion of NATO was a bad idea (because said expansion would encourage Russia into hostile actions) is justification for Russia to enact said hostile actions in 2014 and 2021?

That was basically what your handful of links from Western scholars said.

In saying that, I was far more specific than you have been. If you wish to challenge me on any particular point, I welcome that, particularly as these are points you're supposed to be presenting.

Please, give me a specific point to mull over. So far it's been either generic or diverting.

The west is likewise trying to force a decision in their own favor. The fact is that Minsk agreements were created between the west, Russia, and Ukraine in order to avoid the current scenario.

Yes, the Minsk agreements were created to avoid Russia invading more of Ukraine. Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, the rest of the world wanted them to stop, now Russia is continuing their invasion.

Nevermind the fact that the agreement basically broke down completely in 2015, well before Russia mobilised in 2022.

And once again, the moralizing regarding whether something is justified or not is completely beside the point. That doesn’t actually solve anything and it’s not in any way productive. It’s just a way to make yourself feel righteous.

You're trying to make out that Russia's invasion of Ukraine is some sort of forgone conclusion. It wasn't. It was an active decision to invade and kill people.

What all this comes down to is that since the west and Russia can’t come to a diplomatic agreement this will be decided in a hot war. Currently, this war is contained in Ukraine, however it can easily turn into a world war and then into a nuclear holocaust. If you think that’s a good path to follow then by all means keep drumming up continued escalations.

And there we have it, full blown threats. If Russia can't get its way, if Russia can't claim the territory it wants, nukes will fly.

I am accutely aware of the threat of nukes, far more than you know. That won't discourage me from calling out bullshit regardless.

You haven't given any detail though, you've just dropped names and linked to long-winded articles, and when I've read those articles I've found that they don't line up with your statements.

I can understand diplomacy and finding a common ground. I've been in enough relationships with bad women to know that all too well.

What I see from Russia is a desire to force a decision in their favour, with a bullshit statement along the lines of "well, you didn't do what we asked, so we're going to follow through with our threats". As if that somehow makes the threats themselves justified.
