Kraiden , to Technology in Chinese space firm unintentionally launches its new rocket

To be fair, none of that was in your original post. Not knowing all of that, I think it was a safe assumption you meant the allegations of mistreatment by the CCP, rather than the Falun Gong claims of benevolence.

Obviously you didn't though, and a quick Google search suggests you might have some valid points. I didn't know any of that!

However, I do want to point out that you could say most of the same things about fundamental Christians, and while I'd personally take the same view of those types ( I do believe they're a dangerous cult) I wouldn't say anyone calling them peaceful religious types was engaging in "Alex Jones level of manipulation of the truth" and wouldn't discount them entirely for holding that view. Particularly when, as you say, it's very likely they are actually being persecuted

But hey, if nothing else I think you've shown that I have no idea what I'm talking about here. Maybe that comparison doesn't actually hold. Also, for all I know he's a bought and paid for propagandist. Honestly, nothing surprises me these days

Kraiden , to Technology in Chinese space firm unintentionally launches its new rocket

I don't think what he's saying about Falun Gong is so far fetched to be outside the realm of plausibility.

There's been enough reports of similar treatment of other groups, like the Uyghurs and Tibetans, from reputable sources that I believe something is going on there.

As for sources, if the CCP is half as bad as he makes them out to be, it would be irresponsible of him to give sources.

I don't know enough to refute anything you've said, but frankly you're less credible than him right now. I mean no offense but you have a single comment on your account and you've offered nothing to support your claim of twisted truth.

Too much smoke to conclude there's no fire

Kraiden , to Technology in Chinese space firm unintentionally launches its new rocket

I suspect it's actually worse there. This guy has a series called "China fakes everything" which is worth watching

Kraiden , to 3DPrinting in I liked Fusion 360, I like Onshape - but I'd rather like something that I won't lose over the whims of one company. So, what?

it looks like Fusion 360 runs fine on Linux

I can assure you, it does not.

Do not switch to Linux and expect this project to save you, it is NOT beginner friendly.

It's great, and I'm sure someone smarter than me could probably get it working, but personally, I failed miserably and switched to OnShape.

Kraiden , to Microblog Memes in Happily ever after.

have you seen what people can do with makeup? The prince didn't stand a chance!

Kraiden , to World News in Greece introduces the six-day work week

Greece re-introduces the 6 day work week... It used to be the standard. Y'know, in the 18th fucking century

Kraiden , to Game Development in Gotta love how informal open source game dev is

What I wouldn't give to be able to use that last line in a professional setting sometimes.

Kraiden , to Ask Lemmy in Do you recognise any usernames on Lemmy?

@FlyingSquid has a distinctive profile picture, and I see them everywhere. Also I suspect I know @Dave IRL, but I'm not certain.

Kraiden , to politics in ‘Fauci Kills Puppies’: Inside the Forgotten Fake ‘Beaglegate’ Scandal

So what I'm hearing is: Fauci DIDN'T shoot a puppy in a gravel pit for essentially getting too excited...

what a monster /s

Kraiden , to News in Two Pulse survivors are now 'ex-gays' running a conversion therapy organization

Recently found out about https://elan.school/ which ended up being run by ex "students." It's not the same thing, but there are parallels. Conversion therapy is essentially brainwashing at it's core, and I find it fascinating (in a horrifying, train crash, can't look away, kind of way) that in both cases, ex members become involved in perpetuating the horror.

eta: I agree it does not absolve them

Kraiden , to Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics. in California wants to seize oil majors’ profits as climate damages | California amended a lawsuit it filed against five western oil majors last year, hoping to seize “ill-gotten” gains from deception

Who's trying to make friends? Burn them at the fucking stake, I say!

Kraiden , to Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics. in Environmental Group to Study Effects of Artificially Cooling Earth

Cool! I'll get started on building Snowpiercer then

Kraiden , to Asklemmy in Professional Scientists of Lemmy: What is your field of study's, most complex unanswered question?

Thanks, that was a great answer! I had no idea it was so complicated. I was definitely in the naive camp there.

Kraiden , to Asklemmy in Professional Scientists of Lemmy: What is your field of study's, most complex unanswered question?

After covid, this strikes me as a dangerous thing to say. Are you an immunologist and could you expound on this?

Kraiden , to NonCredibleDefense in Water Tank Tank
