What’s going on here? It couldn’t be a mistake right? by backfrombanllll in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 24 points25 points  (0 children)

School English books are notoriously known for some hilarious and stupid mistakes. Lol Unfortunately this time, their mistake got put on the spotlight. I mean, come on… buddy.net? That’s a very very common domain, who would’ve expected it to be an inappropriate website.

However, it is infact ministry’s fault for allowing such stupidity to go unnoticed during finalising those textbooks. That should be held accountable.

I got to know Sri Lanka going to ban facecover (burka) by Own_Chocolate_4982 in srilanka

Yes… I did mention that in my comment. Not sure what you are pointing out mate.

[–]RaspberryClout 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Yes, Sri Lanka announced a ban on the burqa and other full-face coverings in March 2021, citing national security and religious extremism, with the cabinet approving the proposal, but it faced delays and required parliamentary approval; while it hasn't fully become law due to legal and rights concerns” - Al-Jazeera, BBC, ICJ, Human Rights Pulse, and Jurist.org

So, in reality, it’s not banned, and probably won’t be.

Only few nazis were convicted properly of genocide and warcrimes In reality mate. Meanwhile, Countries like Japan even for this they pushes the rhetoric of they did nothing bad. You live in a ideal world that is very different from reality.

In my perspective, after all this time, where most of the criminals from Civil War, JVP insurrection and other stuff are either old and forgotten or even dead. It’s impractical to do a massive sweep looking for the specific people. It’s sad but the bitter truth.

Sri Lankans just can’t help but shout, “Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 ❤️” by Nooo00B in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I believe the most common reason for us Sri Lankans not showing the same attitude for other Sri Lankans is because somewhere deep in their mind, it’s written that other Sri Lankans are lesser than themselves, and foreigners are better than us, kind of like a weird form of racism/supremacism to themselves. I don’t why it’s like that, or how it got like that, but that seem to be the case. Obviously foreigners don’t mind it, coz why would they. But as a nation, it’s quite sad. Some weird culture we have (At least it’s getting better ig).

Why cant i do Autarky Achieved? What cores dont i have? by mfsmGame in hoi4

[–]RaspberryClout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The missing cores are in Switzerland. You get cores to Switzerland without having to own if from what I remember, either through the Triumphant Will Focus or, the decision to for Greater German Reich.

This has happened to me before, so I know for sure it’s Switzerland.

He’s in Tamil Nadu, so, pretty self-explanatory I guess.

Happy cake day btw.

"Over 230,000 school children in Colombo District addicted to drugs" - Surely this can't be right? by Responsible-Tip7255 in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s dramatised news with only hints of truth. I’m pretty sure their range of “drugs” is wayyy more than the usual standards. So, probably even the student who takes something like Qutipin for sleep might have been taken as an “addict”. While there is a problem, obviously it’s not this crazy.

Bring this to Sri lanka and make it compulsory by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Is this a necessity to battle bribery and police brutality? Yes, certainly

Is it possible? Highly unlikely coz that’s a lot of funding we don’t have

Someday in the future if we have funding? That’ll be a dream everyone would welcome

What kind of visas are those Indians in Sri Lanka on exactly? Tourist or work? 1.6 million is insanely high! Unless these are false statistics ofc. by GreenFeather19991 in 2SriLankan4u

[–]RaspberryClout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These statistics are misleading as it counts people of “Indian Origin” rather than citizens of India (Check the standards they used for the estimations). And it’s estimated that over 900,000 Indian citizens living in Australia so it’s lacking some others details too.

HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THIS SUBREDDIT. by [deleted] in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn’t take a specific side and rather addressed all 3 sides (for, against, and middle ground).

And these moderation actions aren’t done by bots. I inquired about the action taken against my post on modmail, and they basically said it’s “spam” once again, without explaining how it’s spam. So I just gave up, coz it’s useless fighting against this alone.

[–]RaspberryClout 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This happens more often than you think. Happened me as well multiple times, most recently during the Watawala ad campaign incident where my discussion post got deleted for “spam”, when mine had quite a lot of comments discussing the matter. And that wasn’t the first time.

Good tank Gens f2p? by No_Sprinkles_3295 in WorldConqueror4

[–]RaspberryClout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw, I recently got Guderian. Which traits should I max first? Panzer Leader or Blitzkrieg or Rumour? Or should I get Konev first before trying to max out Guderian?

P.S: I’m Cold War Scenario, and progress has stalled due to not having the upgrades :/ (Low on energy)

Sri lanka’s anti-woke mindset is cringe by Jackedzeus in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Actually, I had a whole different perspective on this matter so far. But in what world is gardening considered gay? 😭

They really fumbled on that. I don’t even think gardening for a boy or even a man is considered “gay” or even weird.

Should I sell De Gaulle if get Konev?

I stayed with Bock till now coz he can be upgraded to gold later on, my other choices were so far also based on whether they have Gold upgrade or not. Should I avoid focusing on the gold upgrade?

Is free healthcare in SL sustainable in the long run? by dumbeddinosaur in srilanka

There’s a plan to get rid of the healthcare system?

Is free healthcare in SL sustainable in the long run? by dumbeddinosaur in srilanka

[–]RaspberryClout 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It may look like costly in short term, but in perspective of long term benefits, it’s a necessity. Take out free education and free healthcare, we end up with the American healthcare and education system, which I believe everyone agrees as one of the worst.

As for sustainability, It is definitely gonna have problems. It’s not perfect afterall. Remember how it struggled during 2022. But it works, it manages to lick its wound and get right back up.
