Both. The WoW term (which is actually from Ultima Online originally) comes from the queer term.

News@lemmy.world•Former Miss Teen USA Contestant Rebukes Vance for Using Her Flub to Attack Harris
6·2 years agoNo. Fascist WANT to be called pieces of shit. They WANT you to hate them. They can’t STAND being valued weird. That’s why it works. Fascist like being despised, it makes them feel powerful and important.

6·2 years agoThe reason for this is that homeschool advocacy groups are all far right grifters laundering money like PragerU and the HSLDF. The homeschool to alt-right pipeline is real.

8·2 years agoJD Vance once again gets caught essentially saying he hates women? Colour me not surprised. I’m very surprised this man has children.
The term you are looking for is “twink”

Technology@lemmy.world•Movie industry demands US law requiring ISPs to block piracy websitesEnglish
1·2 years agoY’know the French did this “publicly execute the rich” thing before. Worked out pretty great for them… maybe we should learn a thing or two.
The ends justify the means?
Hypotheticaly then: if I had a 100% guarantee that murdering all babies would get them into heaven, but you’d go to hell, is it morally right to murder all babies? The ends justify the means, do they not? We need to get babies to heaven! So murder them all!
No, it’s absolutely still monstrous. Because utilitarianism is stupid.

1·3 years agoWar crimes are explicitly not terrorism by definition. If you need a basic high school education though there’s hopefully a public school near you. This subject and topic is covered under civics.

11·3 years agoWars are by definition lawful. Sorry you’re wrong
It’s also not a twisted definition. It’s the literal dictionary definition that all countries use when defining terrorism.
And no, if war time acts were not lawful, all war is terrorism which it isn’t so again you’re wrong.

World News@lemmy.world•Hundreds dead in Israel and Gaza, thousands injured after Hamas launches rockets, Israel declares warEnglish
1·3 years agoIsrael can’t be called terrorism because terrorism must be—by definition—unlawful
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
Emphasis mine.

2·3 years ago“Hey so I know we’ve been doing a genocide but look, we’re being really nice when we bomb innocent civilians homes by letting them know we’re going to bomb their homes.”
This (a) doesn’t excuse literal genocide and (b) is just a “nicer” version of exactly the thing they’re appalled Hamas just did. You don’t get to cry foul if you’re going to retaliate with a tit for tat play.

Technology@lemmy.world•Amazon Prime Video is able to remove a video from your library after purchase.English
2·3 years agoMost Blu-ray’s now come with digital files. You can upload these to a server like Plex (this requires you to setup a Plex server which I don’t expect the average consumer to be capable of, but uploading it to a MacBook or whatever is basically enough) to digitise your collection. Now you still own the physical media, and have a digital version of it as well.
And this is completely legal.
You could also skip the buying the physical Blu-ray part. But that is less than legal (but you’re unlikely to get caught… just saying, yar har)

4·3 years agoAnti-capitalist ≠ tankie
In fact Communist ≠ tankie
Tankies are specifically defenders of Marxist-Leninist communism and their one party state rule (which is ironically not communism, it’s Stalinism which is a form of autocratic socialism)






Most people in WoW and Souls games use it to mean someone who purposely remains lower level but gets better gear.
Ie. Staying under a soul level to PvP with a certain level of player using late game gear. (PvP in Souls games is based on soul level brackets)
