Grand rising/day/evening, comrades! I’m about to be busy, so in the before-hectic time I opened Lemmy to see the following posts immediately, and thought perchance they may serve your entertainment needs:

    They’re preparibg for war with china so they will likely start dehumanizing campaigns against them.

        I’m not following. I dont think dehumanization is a good idea at all. Did I miss something?

          I’m saying they’re not preparing for war with dehumanizing rhetoric, rather they’re preparing with escalation. Apologies for ambiguity.

              No worries, I was tired and didn’t realize how awful it came across until you inquired. I’m really sorry about that.
