That's what Big Non-Dino-Oil wants you to think, so they can get all of the moneys from everyone.

The modern way of doing this would involve reversing the process of dinosaur bones turning into oil. So you just put into the oil-to-bone-inator and bury those bones back into the ground where they originally came from.
If this happens they'll do the "A person who swears to tell the truth and nothing but the truth says what" ordeal. If that doesn't work they will just let you leave
Right now I am reading An Urban History Of China by John Lincoln. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I am enjoying reading it, since I am a sucker for anything history.
Fair enough.
I just misread the original as "Free speech' and not "Protected speech".
Free speech does protect you from the bomb threats. But it doesn't protect from any other laws that you might have broken in the process. In this case making illegal threats.
The laws don't effect the available words in your speech, but the actions of those words. Like in this case making people fear for their life because of a bomb threat. Hell, it doesn't even have to be words. It could be a letter, but it still holds the same consequences.
I honestly forgot where this meme was posted and thought it was a really weird shitpost.
But wouldn't that invalidate the usage of that word in the circles that use it wrong, and not for those who use it properly.
Like if there was a hypothetical town where the word "good" was used to describe bad things, would that town invalidate the word "good" for every single town? Of course it wouldn't, it would only invalidate the usage of that word by the ones who use the word in question wrong.
But that wasn't said in your original message, was it? In your original message you were implying that by the USA spending more money in their military to spread their influence, would make the US government a tankie(?), thus invalidating everyone who uses the word tankie.
Also if your point was that the word tankie lost its meaning by usage in invalid contexts, why did you mention the USA? Wouldn't it have been more appropriate to explain that it lost its meaning by the usage of it, and not by the actions of the US government, since the US is not the only nation who has people who use the word tankie?
Either you are willingly redefining a word, or you don't even know what it means
Tankie means a person who supports an authoratian communist state.
The word comes from the Tianamen Square Massacre, where tanks were used to silence and kill protester, which some people think didn't happen.
It's ironic. Like I am small dude, but I call myself big.
Oh damn, an article containing a topic about Russia and Cuba. I hope this post will contain a civil conversation about the topic without it derailing into a giant fighting pit about the United States.
