Or better yet, just switching it off and leaving it that way.

Ah, right. I finally understand what we’ve apparently been talking about. See, if instead you wrote: “I was just saying that most people don’t know that China isn’t Communist.” then everything would be immediately clear rather than a guessing game. I think you’d really help yourself be less easily misunderstood if you try to be mindful of whether your statements are fully qualified.

We’re trying our best, but humans aren’t telepathic. I’m not saying that you don’t know what you’re talking about, but the rest of us don’t – unless you tell us.

But we got there in the end, and it seems we’re now on the same page.

Okay. Now I understand what you meant, but I still don’t see what point you’re getting at. China is in no way Communist.

My confusion stems from the fact that you absolutely refuse to clearly say what you mean, and instead make vague allusions to… something or other.

Is it really that hard to just clearly write out the argument you wish to make?

Yeah, I don’t know how to tell you this, so I’ll just be blunt: That… wasn’t very helpful.

If you want me to understand you, you’re going about it the wrong way.

Well, maybe it’d help alleviate some of our confusion if you’d present your perspective instead of just alluding to having one.

It’s a pity that DR has restricted access to their content for international visitors. I’ve had a few British colleagues tying to learn Danish, and watching the news was a good way to get exposure to received pronunciation and a wide vocabulary.

Nevertheless, while I’m not always on Lemmy, whenever I’m around I’ll be happy to answer what questions I can.

Oh no. /s

I’m sure that’ll work out just great.

We’d be fortunate to have you, I’m sure. Please feel free to DM me if you need help. Pronunciation - which is probably the hardest part - is going to be tricky to assist with, but I can certainly help with grammar and spelling. Don’t worry too much about pronunciation though - most Danes speak English perfectly well, and nobody is likely to hold relying on that against you until you can get up to speed.

You might be onto something.

Agreed.

No indeed, and you absolutely won’t hear me complain about it. I’m not religious, but if I had been I’d have said ‘bless you’. Instead, I’m just going to personally thank you for fighting the good fight. Keep it up! You’re one of the good ones.

Hopefully, one day we’ll be able to enjoy a nice BBQ together.

Yeah, no. You know what? I think we’re better off without the US at this point.

Or the EU depending on geography and preference. Either is more desirable regardless.

Ah, yes. China’s winning formula for national policy: Sit back and win by default while the US is busy punching their own nutsack, laughing gormlessly and exclaiming “Ow, my balls!”

Yup :(

Ooh, those are some lovely features. If only Nvidia hadn’t dropped support for 10xx cards as per 590.xx locking me on kernel 6.12, I might even have been able to enjoy using ntsync!

(Fuck Nvidia)

Uh, agreed. I don’t believe I made the argument that we should do away with democracy. I certainly didn’t mean to.

I never want to hear the word “democracy” spoken by an American again until they’ve cleaned up their shitshow of a so-called country.
