Excuse me, I have a question. Who was the leader of the USSR when this happened?

There are pictures of tankman climbing the tank to have a chat with the crew

Oh wow, so I wonder what happened to Tank Man afterwards. He must be pretty famous in China then for starring in such an iconic picture. Has anyone spoken to him afterwards? No? Why's that?

military violence against protestors happened outside the Tiananmen square

Oh yes, my bad, that totally makes it ok. Massacres outside the square don't count. ☺️

So let me get this clear: your position is that I am CIA and that the Tiananmen square massacre did not happen?

Is that correct, or am I missing something? Feel free to use "arguments" to explain yourself.

Yes, the USSR, famous for respecting the will of the people ...

The group of protesters remained steadfast, even in the face of annihilation. Shots rang out, innocents were struck, and people began to die. Nonetheless — there was power in numbers, and solidarity that allowed them to find courage — and thousands joined hands as bullets flew. “Students linked arms but were mown down,” wrote Donald. “APCs then ran over the bodies time and time again to make, quote ‘pie’ unquote, and remains collected by bulldozer.”

As if this wasn’t atrocious enough, the government’s criminal and brutal activity that day got even worse. With no regard for the families of these victims, not to mention their identities, what was left of them was disposed of — in an unspeakably callous manner.

“Remains incinerated and then hosed down drains,” Donald wrote.

Have you ever watched this, tankboy?

I especially liked the bit about using tanks to make human pie, and then flushing the pie down the drains.

What's your favourite OS that does not use systemd? in c/[email protected]

What's your favourite OS that does not use systemd? in c/[email protected]

As a user, why should I care whether the distro I use uses systemd?

Um, because as a user you may have to deal with services, or other systemd features?

Let's say you want to start ssh-agent when you login to your desktop environment. Well, there's a systemd service for that that you can enable, and on another distro you'd have to do it another way (autostart script or something).
