Hegel remarks somewhere[*] that all great world-historic facts and personages appear, so to speak, twice. He forgot to add: the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I'm confused... why do even Democrats seem conflicted on Kamala Harris as a replacement of Joe Biden?
0·2 years agoWait, so Dems seem to have like a majority support of her, that’s news to me?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is HD or 3D so impressive on a flat screen, but we walk around in real life with the highest definition possible and the most realistic 3D and it's completely mundane?
5·2 years agoWell, if ye think about it from a perspective of recording things
Most of our ancestors may have been able to look at things as it is, according to their eyes, but they’ve never seen it recorded in photos and videos, let alone in color or good quality, until these relatively recent centuries that we now live in…
It gives a new perspective to the world around us, beyond our eyes, and is probably the closest we’d ever get from literally looking at someone else’s point of view…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does one have to be an iconoclast or revolutionary these days to be validly left? I consider myself to be left of center, and very much in favor of progressive policies.
1·2 years agoYe think slavery, worker rights, and decolonization was done merely by protests and by the mere will of liberalism?
Cake was bread historically
I think all other dough-based dishes derive from bread really, since I believe it’s the most basis dough recipe ye can make…
Nowadays, my definition of modern cake = bread + defined-sweetness + fluffiness and softness
My proof that cake was bread; look at pound cake, one of modern cake’s forerunners, and tell me no one thought and baked it, thinking “how about bread, but more deluxe?”

Memes@lemmy.ml•Question: should we freeze speech or free speech?
3·2 years agoNot anything specific; apparently left-liberal media like “Morning Joe” is being axed or postponed, cuz of the Republican rightist’s stupid allegations that left-liberal media caused the assassination attempt… I find it absurd
Not to mention, Biden decided to suspend some campaign ads because of this
I’d say I have no mixed feelings…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What comes to mind if someone uses the term "deeply unserious"?
1·2 years agoI can’t believe people have semi serious responses to such an absurd turn of phrase.
I don’t know, maybe they responded during work… or have met someone of that description…

1·2 years agoI got a question below…
Question
If the former refers to me as such, does that mean they want to kill me on twitter? 😉
Either go summer or winter

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is there no global language that at least nearly half the world speaks (3.5 billion, I'm talkin', including non-native speakers)
33·2 years agoTell me, where is this global language where it has 3.5 billion speakers, if not half? You’ve indicated it’s not the case…?

That’s dramatic… aren’t they just giving women servers rights to not be humiliated as much there… (don’t scream SeeSeePee control all over again)

World News@lemmy.ml•Barbados To Recognize Palestine as State
22·2 years agoDid they negotiate directly with the Palestinians in 1948 and arrive on the agreement to share the land according to the borders that existed before 1967? [ Does solving the issue by war count?

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Speaking of euphemisms, do you guys know of any common dysphemisms?

World News@lemmy.ml•An illegal war with Houthis isn't stopping the Red Sea crisis
91·2 years ago1st, I don’t think it takes a person to know that what Israel’s mitliary is doing in Gaza that the U.S supports, quacks like a humanitarian crisis akin to genocide, regardless of whether you agree or not. The article indicates that
It doesn’t take facts to know that these are bad optics, mon liberal ami…
2nd, lemme tell you this… if the Saudis dealt with Yemenis and couldn’t bomb them out of existence and cause famine, why do you think an overstretched U.S army can deal with them?
Can’t they finish their Ukraines and Israels before Yemen?

1·2 years agodecrying experienced political institutions as corrupt while claiming to be a reformer.
Someone can just see a theoretical event happening like that and just write and TITLE the news as:
Man leads a pro-democracy movement against corrupt one-party-rule and its institutions…
That being said, scapegoating an outgroup is indeed a demagoguery…
Do you take me for bad-faith arguer?
