They used to be, since it’s not as traditional or “manly”. But there’s a lot less of that sort of attitude these days. You’ve done your service after all.

That sounds more like people coping with the system than endorcing it. “It is what it is” of course is counterproductive to dismantling it.

I haven’t seen that online tbh

I don’t think it’s going the way the communists want to though

I don’t think many people in the West like credit score system either tbh

It sounds like it was the sort of horrid “good citizen” system in pilot cities until it was stopped

In 2019, the central government voiced dissatisfaction with pilot cities experimenting with social credit scores. It issued guidelines clarifying that citizens could not be punished for having low scores and that punishments should only be limited to legally defined crimes and civil infractions. As a result, pilot cities either discontinued their point-based systems or restricted them to voluntary participation with no major consequences for having low scores.

We have “civilian service” as alternative to armed service in the military. Those people work in schools, libraries, (public) museums, that sort of places

I care when someone claims that they did. It’s important to gets the facts straight imo. They commenter you’re replying to didn’t imply Gates was a good guy or something.

The disadvantage of a shorthand compared to just a numbered list might be that people think it’s strictly one after the another instead of groups

They aren’t using the same words so the shorthand (if they have one) is different. I don’t think we had a shorthand for it either, we just learned it.

And we learned them in groups numbered like the Swedes

Something funny about everyone being so eager to show how they can solve this

Is this the guy who got his bike stolen

For anyone wondering about the total, I didn’t see the number of deaths in the jail article but Vietnam War and War on Terror high estimates for the total for all sides, including civilians comes to around 7 million.

I expected more tbh. That’s rookie numbers, pretty sure Nazi Germany killed way more and even someone like Mao alone drwafs those numbers. Smdh USA are you even trying

Or biased in the right direction

A wild twist on the Uuno movies

Same for me, across dozens of screens and different apartments and at school and… I don’t think it’s just the lighting

Did you not read or understand this part?

A single search will reveal to you the same thing a much deeper dive into academic works will.

Well that’s probably true

Must’ve not looked into it very hard. A single search will reveal to you the same thing a much deeper dive into academic works will.
