A video has gone viral on Chinese social media calling for China to take advantage of Russia's weakened state and seized large pieces of its territory.
You're viewing a single thread.
Lol please do it, it'd be funny.
I mean, Russia is being worse to LGBT people compared to China's treatment of LGBT people, so I guess its a slight improvement?
But then, the firewall is much superior to russia's, so its gonna get harder to bypass censorship.
But good news, they gets free re-education to learn Social Harmony, and love peace, and love Xinnie the Pooh!
Also, no more pronoun issues. Pronouns are always 他/他 (pronounced tā), gendered pronouns are a thing of the past. (Chinese language does not really use gendered pronouns)
No idea why it boils down to treatment of LGBT, as if that is the only group that is consistently fucked with.
Welcome to Lemmy. We have only three topics - LGBT, Linux and USA politics ( lately rebranded to TrumpElon ).
Don't forget Star Trek.
God dammit, you got me.
And LOTR!
Kirk yes
You forgot vegan cats.
Indeed. "Women hold up half the sky", my left buttock. The current Chinese economy is built on the bones of millions of little girls. When they invade Russia client states, then start pressuring the borders of Russia itself, I have no idea who to favor. I'll just keep planting sunflowers.
A big portion of population might go the way of Uyghurs which is not great.
They might not use genered pronouns, but they do a lot of referring to people as uncle/auntie/big sister/little brother and the like.
Less pro, more noun. Gotcha.
(Chinese language does not really use gendered pronouns)
他(male) and 她(female), no?
And also 它 for animal/object
Or at least that's what i learn when i'm in school, not sure if anything change.
You are correct. 他 for he, and 她 for she. However since they all sound the same, they're only distinguished in writing.
It's not that they sound the same; they are the same and are just written differently. It was all 他 until in the 20th (I think) century they created 她 and 它 and made 他 for males only to make the language more European.
holy shit I think you're right! I feel like I've seen your claim somewhere else
If you write 他 to refer to a woman on a test essay, you'd still get marked correct.
Writing 她 to refer to a man would be incorrect.
Basically
他 = He OR She
她 = She
它 = It (refer to objects and non-human animals)
他 is what gets used all the time to refer to both genders. 她 is rarely used, unless maybe in an English class to teach the difference between the English pronouns He and She.
Also, they are all pronounced the same: (tā)
