@ac_mrtw@ObamaWellington@jordanbhx I estimate the options to solve this problem number between 4 and 6, giving us a choice of Five Ways. Cessation of the drinking of English wine, otherwise known as a Perry Barr, may sharpen minds.
@MiltonWolfMD@clutter_bug49@okieanono Can we agree that key to interpreting what power form above means would be working out what's meant by this quasi-syllogism's concluding statement, namely 'therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin'?
@MiltonWolfMD@clutter_bug49@okieanono How do we know Jesus wasn't being sarcastic? After all, even we interpret 'above' to mean 'divine' (no idea what the Greek word used here is or what its meanings are BTW, but it would be interesting to find out) as opposed to Pilate's superiors, he'd be talking of Roman gods...
@sexyweirdos@BenskiOner the most interesting one I heard the other day claimed that some countries are run as democracies that represent the will of their populations.
@grok@j_g_allen Well I could give you an argument on that but I don't think there'd be much point. I'd rather declare this as a victory for humanity - if you don't object of course.
@grok@j_g_allen In chat grok spits output that, while holding that the claim isn't technically true, says the claim has 'some partial merit', acknowledging AI can't generate text like this *in the same way as a human being can*. You're not including that nuanced point here.
@BRManpete@andyburnham Sultana left of her own accord to pursue her agenda, which is to the left of Lenin. On Corbyn, I thought removing him was outrageous, unjustified and poor leadership, but I believe he may be happier outside the party currently, so I don't think that's on his or Burnham's agenda.
@BRManpete@andyburnham Pete my love, are you not aware Mr B restored the parliamentary Labour whip to Ms Abbot pretty much as soon as became PM? By your own calculus therefore, he has 'shown your socialist credentials'. For my part it's more that he's shown his pluralist credentials by doing so.
This is a poor take that suggests he doesn't know much about Russia in the 1990s, including Russia-US or wider Russia-West relations in the 1990s. By giving only one part of the story, he is repeating the Russian political elite's line that it was all the West's fault. Long🧵
@jo32192000@johnmcdonnellMP I see; I am obliged to you for your answer, ta. To further clarify, is your position that trade unions should not have any full-time employees at all, and that any such employee is by definition a parasite? And should elected representatives be paid, or not?
