Encyclopedia example was answer on you remark about historical contents. And Cambridge directly contradict you, there is no victim there. OED marked that meaning as obsolete. Only webster prove your point.
- Comment on Supporting ‘illegal aggression’ against Iran ‘the worst thing’ Australia could do, international law experts say 1 week ago:
Ok. What do you expect Jews to do when their enemy’s position is unmovable: “kill all Jews”? Israel defends itself. Fight or die. It is a war. There are plenty of Muslims living in Israel without problems, so the problem is not on the Israeli side. And why do you bring these poor girls as an argument? They have nothing to do with Palestine.
- Comment on 148 schoolgirls martyred in Israeli regime's heinous attack in Minab 1 week ago:
Hmm, www.britannica.com/topic/martyr – and other dictionaries disagree with you. It has to be a willing sacrifice.
Berate? Why do you come to this conclusion? Does it matter to parents whether they call the child a “martyr” or a “victim”? In both cases the child is dead?
- Comment on 148 schoolgirls martyred in Israeli regime's heinous attack in Minab 1 week ago:
It just English. Martyrs die willingly for their cause. These poor souls just die; they have not been given a choice. They are victims not martyrs
- Comment on Supporting ‘illegal aggression’ against Iran ‘the worst thing’ Australia could do, international law experts say 1 week ago:
Israel in the war with Hamas (which they did not start), and sad nature of the wars that civilians die. So 70k are not applied there. Same with Iran; attack on Iran was an act of war. No one targets these poor girls on purpose. They are just another tragic collateral. This is a main difference with the action of Iran’s government and the US. The US so far has not killed civilians intentionally (but does not give much fuck about their lives either).
Will Iran and the world win if Iran gets a less murderous government? I guess it will.
- Comment on 148 schoolgirls martyred in Israeli regime's heinous attack in Minab 1 week ago:
Martyred? No, they just get killed. US managed to kill more civilian in one day than Russia and Ukraine together for an year.

Is there a way to check whether I sent her a message? I’m sure I did, but I can’t find it anywhere.
- Comment on Failure to launch: why the Albanese government is in trouble 1 year ago:
I can’t even imagine how much damage will be done by sweeping reforms from party which so disconnected from reality so it pushed “The Voice”. Both labor and liberal are leaving in their universes and no not care much about general population. We should stop voting for both of them, pick a small party of your choice and put it first, it is how democracy works.

Look how much any maintenance/repairs costs now. It may be true.
- Comment on In a void of detail, two reports attempt to spell the challenge for Peter Dutton to go nuclear 1 year ago:
Yeh, just push all costs of using “classic” green generation to existing generation and for sure it will came cheapest. add transmission, over-provioning, and storage cost to it and picture is not that rosy. Go and find that that report, it is just bit of shit.
- Comment on Questions on sexuality and gender have been cut from the 2026 census. Why are LGBTQI+ people saying it's an omission? 1 year ago:
Why it should be there? I guess at this time no one give a f%&k about someones sexual orientation in Australia. And I fail to see any reason to register it for healthcare/taxation or similar purpose. IMHO questions of nationality should go away too.

Lemmy reminds me FIDO of old by this. Collective of elitist geeks.
- Comment on Australia's criminalisation of peaceful protest is a stain on our democracy 1 year ago:
Disrupting other people lives and businesses is not a peaceful protest on my book. Fines should be proportional damage they caused and $20K is top you can get, exact sum is up to court.
- Comment on Australia's criminalisation of peaceful protest is a stain on our democracy 1 year ago:
It is a not a peaceful protests. So why complain?
- Comment on Parliament blocks Greens attempt to recognise Palestinian statehood 1 year ago:
any support for you claims? Israel done a lot trying to live in peace with Palestinian, and it is ends up with them intentionally killing civilian. What you can do about enemy whose sole position is “Kill all Jews” ? They at war now. Israel do not genocide Palestinian, it wedges a war. There are plenty of arabs and muslims living normal live in Israel. Only very some need to be cordoned in prison city, to stop some them from killing.
- Comment on Parliament blocks Greens attempt to recognise Palestinian statehood 1 year ago:
I guess genocide is base of Palestiian politics, not Israel. Israel is just fighting a war now, and they did a lot to avoid it.
UN, just another example of “out of touch and destructive” - Comment on Parliament blocks Greens attempt to recognise Palestinian statehood 1 year ago:
So Greens once again show how out of touch and stupid they are.

- Comment on Experts have said for years we need more social and affordable housing. So where is it? 2 years ago:
All we need is to force businesses out of the cities. IT will solve transport problem big time. There is no need for cities anymore.
