That seems incredibly unlikely.

Once again, I long for precidented times.

I didn't say otherwise.

I have no comment on weather the Korean War was a genocide. I don't know enough about the topic.

Your statement, that I replied to, was "Nothing in the community rule say that the content should be about established facts"

If I didn't remember, then it would be not meaningfully different from the life I live now.

That is what I understand. But that is not meaningful in this case. Speaking purely hypothetically, there is no reason that the US could not take advantage of North Korean aggression as an excuse to commit the genocide that the article accuses them of.

The cultural relationship with time is more important than its absolute measurement.

This was the statement at the top of this discussion. It values the local concept of what time should be over an objective measurement of what time is.

The proposed change wouldn't cause much of a problem. But the idea under the statement I quoted would.

that is such a small edge case that it’s not necessary to talk about them

Did you manage to overlook this point?

In general, stay out of the ducking way.

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 3 points 2 weeks ago

And in both cases, missing the point. Categorize based on the chemistry, not the source of the chemical.

[–] SaltSong@startrek.website 2 points 2 weeks ago

That would kind of miss the whole point.

That's an untenable position. I mean, Cocaine is a plant, too.
