Besides providing verbatim records of who said what, there is a second can of worms in forming any sort of binding agreement if the two sides of the agreement are having two different conversations.
I think this is what the part about the missed nuance means.
Communism is a society without social classes, money, or a state.
Feel free to name one so-called communist country that implemented that.
The eastern block was as communist as North Korea is democratic.
They did however socialize ownership of factories etc, so they did have an authoritarian form of socialism.
Take Ellen Ripley for example: strong woman. Can’t be played by a man as the character no longer makes sense.
Ripley was originally not even written as a woman.
There is not a single scene in the original Alien where her being a woman is in any way relevant.
There’s an xkcd for that:

But at least pronunciation is mostly consistent.
In English two words can be written almost exactly the same but sound wildly different.
Looking at you, words with “ough”
You think economics picture books would be a better idea?
Tbf, it was an art installation and the overreactions it generated are hilarious.
I can lie under the table, puking my guts out and still remember the year.
You need more training, son.
For file names, absolutely.
When I’m asking what date it is I typically know the current year.
There is quite the difference between 150/365 and 300/365.
One is about 3/7 the other 6/7 and now look at today when most of us work 5/7 on a normal workweek.
Well, they couldn’t go with Helles because it’s actually good.
Try to pronounce the letter G. What does it sound like? Hard or soft G?
According to wikipedia the phonetic usage includes:
[g]
[d͡ʒ]
[ʒ]
[ŋ]
[j]
[ɣ~ʝ]
[x~χ]
[d͡z]
[ɟ]
[k]
[ɠ]
[ɢ]
/dʒiː/
For English pronunciation it lists:
/dʒ/
/ɡ/
/ʒ/ and
silent
I’m saying that there are no consistent rules so language learners have to learn each word individually.
If you learn languages by memorizing every singe vowel shift since proto-indo-european then be my guest but for someone who just wants to speak the language and has to learn the difference between plough, through, though etc, it seems pretty damn arbitrary.
Yes, but we’re not talking about the linguistic history of how words developed.
We’re talking about learning a language and the lack of consistent rules can make that quite difficult.
Bavarian
On that note, I also understand some Swabian, Franconian, and Austrian.
It’s just not comparable to having to memorize arbitrary gender for every noun in the language
Yes, instead of having to memorize one of up to three possible genders for every noun, you only have to memorize an infinity of arbitrary pronunciations for every word.
Much easier.
Fuck Communism and fuck unchecked capitalism
Interesting how capitalism needs the qualifier ‘unchecked’ while apparently communism has only one possible form.
Reminder that the US have never abolished slavery for prisoners and have one of the largest slave population in the world.
The problem for those operating a Lemmy instance is that they are hosting copies of the content of all federated instances.
So if one instance is filled with illegal content, the admins of all federated instances must remove it on their instances to avoid law enforcement kicking down their doors.
If there is too much illegal content on one instance to effectively moderate manually, defederation is the solution.
This is beside the fact, that some might have their own additional non-legally mandated requirements for content they host on their platform.
