I think they’re experiencing a significant gravitas shortfall.

Politics?? In MY language conversation? Well, I never…

C’mon now.

Ah… right. Sometimes I forget how lemmy works.

Tell me you’ve never tried to look into actual communist history without telling me you’ve never tried to look into actual communist history…

So, basically, this person is happy to blind themselves to other viewpoints to avoid viewpoints they disagree with/people they claim are blind to other viewpoints.

… what an enlightened individual!

Does it really add decency??? One of my favourite shows, Arrested Development, uses bleeps over swear words as pure comedy; the black bars are similar to me, they draw attention to the oddity rather than just call it what it is.

Nudity in general is fuckin silly, people should know about their bodies, everyone knows what a naked human looks like from looking at themselves, censoring non-pornographic nudity is stupid and only serves to intrigue and create mystique where it should simply inform and demystify.

For the record, I agree with you, lol.

I was purposefully asking this person who seems to disagree. I wanted to know what they see in western media that seems more convincing, if anything.

So if both are just saying what their leaders want them to say, what do people do who want to find the truth?
