Experts say a twice-yearly injection that offers 100% protection against HIV is 'stunning'
  • I'm not sure why you're being downvoted.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but you're not saying this is a good thing. Just that it is a thing.

    Makes sense to me. But I concede that I'm ignorant of what diseases we have cured recently, and too tired to research it right now.

  • Conservative Bots and Bad Actors Are Swarming R/Millenials Right Now
  • I didn't read this as policing anyone tbh. Sounds more like the person is saying we need to remain open to prevent ourselves from becoming as bad as those we aren't open to. Makes sense to me to be honest.

    Still, I understand others may just not want to join in with these discussions. That's obviously an individual decision.

    Cue some downvotes for not being a 'buy yer pitchforks' comment.

    Edit. Which bit of those comments was castigating people? I'm tired and maybe I'm just missing something.

  • Why do butchers have yellow breadcrumbs on their meat?
  • Okay.

    I guess in the same way you found my comment to be for no reason, I also found yours to be the same.

    IMO, your comment wasn't really on topic. They asked a question about why it happens to them, and you replied that it never happens to you. How is that on topic?

    I did find it interesting that it doesn't happen in the US, I was just checking that you were just making a comment about your own experience, and not to help answer the ops question. That's cool, and I was just checking.

    I hope you have a nice weekend:)

    I hope articles like this about the Tories keep up throughout labours time in power so people don't forget on the next GE.

    Anon makes up a word
  • I'm sure it must be more difficult for you :( just to try and keep you going though, it's definitely a numbers game and those of us who don't have any concerns sometimes misread too.

    Tbh, the recovery is probably more important than the execution in this scenario.

  • China tells NATO not to create chaos in Asia and rejects label of 'enabler' of Russia's Ukraine war
  • No worries. I can see how it'd be interpreted like that. Especially given the amount of what aboutism we see in the comments.

    I also struggle with Lemmy comments as I'm usually writing here tired in my 'downtime' between other responsibilities. You guys get the worst of me! Haha

  • China tells NATO not to create chaos in Asia and rejects label of 'enabler' of Russia's Ukraine war
  • I can't work out your tone from this text. Are you suggesting I'm saying it's okay that either of these things happening?

    I'd say that if NATO are willing to point out China funding Russia, they should also be capable of the self reflection to admit their own faults too.

    I get that this wouldn't work politically though. It's just really frustrating to see such an obvious scream at a mirror.

  • China tells NATO not to create chaos in Asia and rejects label of 'enabler' of Russia's Ukraine war
  • The only way they could enable Russia more is by directly sending them munitions.

    It does seem rich for NATO to call China out on this when NATO members are sending Israel weapons and enabling a different genocide.

    Maybe there's some reason that's different but I definitely don't understand it off the top of my head.

  • Keir Starmer gives go-ahead for British missiles to be used in strikes against targets inside Russia
  • Sorry if I misunderstood. I'll reply on the basis of your latest comment.

    I said I don’t see why I valid target would be made invalid just because it’s inside Russia

    Is anybody saying a target would be made invalid just because it's in Russia? My point was all targets inside Russia are open to increased scrutiny because of targeting inside Russia.

    The children's hospital example is because Russia likely does not have children's hospitals (or other non-military assets) inside Ukraine, and therefore Russian targets inside Ukraine are almost certainly going to be valid. On the other hand, when some high up revenge obsessed Ukrainian military personnel decide they want to target Russian children's hospitals, it's useful for their targets to have increased scrutiny to prevent an additional civilian massacre.

    Just to clarify, the children's hospital example is being used to convey an obviously non military target which additional scrutiny can prevent from being attacked.

    I'm going to stop replying to this thread now as I'm not sure I can make my point much clearer. I might re-read through the context though just in case I misunderstood something somewhere. I do Lemmy on mobile so sometimes it's difficult to track a conversation.

  • I wonder if an argument from the elite against gender fluidity is that the future AI models to track us all via camera will find it harder to assign gender.

    In certain popular Lemmy communities, this would mean something entirely different...

    similar communities for mums or parenthood in general?

    I'm trying to convince my wife to come over to lemmy but want to fulfill her community wants.

    Does anybody know any communities for mums or parents in general?
