Technology@lemmy.world•Gov. Landry signs new drone defense law; first in nationEnglish
22·1 year agoI highly doubt that Iran would attack the US directly - the most they would do is cyberwar
the US has the military power to force Farsi to become a dead language, and I don’t think the Iranian government would want to mess with force that powerful like that
I think what your seeing is probably a bunch of coincidences, there’s other explainations for that stuff you listed, like trump replacing govt workers with his own or wanting more deregulation for power plants.
I wouldn’t worry too much of a threat like that from Iran.

Political Memes@lemmy.world•How long will people be in denial that america is now a fascist regime? You all really going to wait until trumps third term until you come to terms with it, arent you?
3·1 year agoI think a lot of people realize that trump is increasing the power of the govt, but the word fascist means different things to different people. Everyone thinks Hitler was a fascist, that Mussolini was one, but theres tons of people who oppose trump and think he fits into a different description that doesn’t involve fascism. And ofc the people who do support him don’t think he is and the ones that do are chill with it.

Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Last week's assassination of Minnesota's Democrat former House Speaker was the logical sequel to that of the United Healthcare CEOEnglish
22·1 year agoroad that leads directly to civil war
I highly doubt its going to lead to that. The vast majority people are too lazy to fight for anything and would much rather stare at their phones all day. And every sane person knows war is hell so they don’t want that.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Is it a prison break if the prisoners have been unjustly detained? Who decides when it is a hostage rescuse situation?
61·1 year agoif its a prison the people are breaking out of, its a prison break
This is a very complex and intricate topic and it really isn’t simple at all and it takes large amounts of mental effort to comprehend its mechanics.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•A New Middle Eastern War Ignites, Markets Swing On Early Bets That Trump Will Chicken Out AgainEnglish
11·1 year agobetting markets that try to predict the actions of a single person are so rigged and people shouldn’t put any money into them unless they want to influence the persons decision
like if there was a market where people were betting if I would say a given word one day and the odds were 99%-1%, with the 99% being that I would say it, I would bet on the 1% that I wouldn’t, and then not say it. in this way those people who bet that I would say it, they were actually paying me in a sense for me to not say it

11·1 year agoIs Iran having a nuclear weapon worse then Trump having acces to a nuclear weapon.
that’s a dumb questions and I’m gonna be blunt about it
it is clear that the US will not use nukes on a country because of MAD - mutually assured destruction, if they also have nukes then both sides will suffer vast loses, making nukes an unthinkable option. However the extent that MAD would affect Iran’s decision making remains unknown, because using suicide bombers isn’t a new idea for them.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much data do you require before you accept something as "fact"?

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How much data do you require before you accept something as "fact"?
1·1 year ago2+2 is a fact
In some sense, if every single human thought that 2+2 equaled 5, it would become true
(I’m not smart enough to come up with this lol, got it from Orwell’s 1984)

Bluesky@lemmy.world•JD Vance sets up an account, lies about trans people, gets banned within 20 minutes, cries about it.
19·1 year agoinsecure as fuck
then its only a matter of time before they get done to them what those trans hackers did to Andrew Tates social media a few months ago. I think they were trans, idk all I remember about the attack is that they flooded all the chatrooms on it with trans flag emojis and leaked all the user data

I kinda doubt thats gunna happen. most people here are too lazy to fight and would rather look at tiktok videos on their phones. and anyway everyone knows war is hell so that’s a further deterrent for it**___**
