“I love buttplugs”
That was me until I saw the
the evil buttplug
I wonder why 1945-1960 has given us such sharp decolonization
.The west, being the most mature and virtuous of peoples, realised that colonisation is bad and so they decided to just stop doing it anymore out of the goodness of their hearts.
(I joke, but that’s literally how it was taught to me in school)
Why didn’t they just stack the areas normally, why is does it go above and below the x axis??
There’s also no units. I’m guessing the shape is meant to give more visual space? If they were stacked, it would be pretty cramped.
They colonized us all-right.
“Number of colonisations over time”
What does that mean?
Why does it pretend to go down to zero, when there are still 17 officially UN recognized colonies? These are still left on the list of the “special committee for decolonization”. Not to mention all the depended vasall states, comprador regimes etc. Also, where are all the US colonies?
All that “bad stuff” is part of the past. It’s called history and it has recently magically ended. Countries don’t have colonies now, especially the US! We aren’t some kingdom. God’s in his heaven, all is right with the world
/s just in case lol
It’s pretty cool that Simón Bolívar can actually be spotted in the historical timeline.
Not labeling axis is liberalism

Thanks. You know, a happy coincidence lemmy.encryptionin.space spells out les.
I do think I have to figure out how to port some of hexbears changes to my instance, the sorting algo is better on hexbear.

Got “rid” of colonialism, but kept around the multinational corporations…
Now it’s just called internationalism.
It’s fitting that it takes the shape of a butt plug
That largely comes down to an aesthetical preference by whoever made that chart.
The universe has a fucked up sense of humour. What being all encompassing does to a motherfucker
That post war decolonization looks like extra colonization
