“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

― Jean-Paul Sartre

Ok. Seemed odd that you’d leave a comment with no relation to mine in response.

Where?

Did you reply to the wrong comment?

Why wouldn’t they?

It’s hard not to interpret this comment in a western chauvinistic light.

E.g. the BBC is still fairly unbiased on a lot of world news.

No? Why do you think this?

They are far less unbiased on middle eastern politics now.

Have you considered that you may have only noticed that they’re aren’t unbiased on the middle east.

in my experience state media tends to be less than trustworthy.

How did you determine that?

I’d say BBC is okay

You haven’t been watching their year and a half of genocide support?

Private media is not any more trustworthy than state run.

No, I promise you they didn’t. Lay off the lazy strawmanning

It is said that in all his life, Stalin only ever trusted one person: Adolf Hitler.

It must be so easy being a right winger: you can just make up any old bullshit off the top of your head and apparently people will believe you.

Germany, famously not part of Europe.

Germany increased arms spending… well.

Well what? The specter of Russia was a huge part of how Germany justified it’s fascism.

Just like now.

Europe used the specter of Russia to justify it’s dive into militant fascism the last time too.

Nobody more privileged than the supporters of western imperialism.

It’s not how it works, don’t worry. They’re just strawmanning.

No, they did not. Someone finding away to choose the state a wave function collapses into would break quantum physics at a fundamental level. It would literally be the biggest upset in science in human history.

That is indeed that bit I was saying couldn’t be done. Entanglement alone can’t be used to communicate; a signal has to be sent conventionally over the distance.

The FTL bit is physically impossible, so it’s not really “achievable in a reasonable time-frame”

That wasn’t FTL
