the question is not “who is next?”, but it’s “who(m) are we going after next?”

the “who(m)” is not the subject of the sentence here. it’s the object. the subject is the “we”. so “whom” applies here.

if the question were indeed “who is next?” (as you have misread it), then your point would be valid. but your entire argument stems from an incorrect premise.

fyi: “whom" is the correct word to use in two of the three instances.

here’s a tip: if the answer to the question is him, her, or them (as opposed to he, she, or they), then whom is to be used in the question.

there’s nothing pretentious about correctness. it’s about the nominative case vs the accusative case.

if the usa trotted down this path, their app would pay homage to the tansprayed president and be called MaxDonald. there would be an oversized version dubbed the Big Max. they would even target e-readers with the MaxBook Pro.

the idf will be fuming at this data. they would have expected that number to be closer to six out of six.

if you were going the other way and made a u-turn at this point, would you be dublin back?

 

this happens on a samsung galaxy android device. i have a foss keyboard set up and never use the samsung keyboard app.

whenever i copy text, the toast message flashes that samsung keyboard has pasted from my clipboard.

i cant find any option to control clipboard access. how does one turn this off altogether?

my apologies for the long screenshot. i had purchased adguard's vpn service for five years since its primary adguard service is well know in the iapple ecosystem.

on android, though, their app appears to send data to a lot of third-parties. has it always been this compromised? am i a fool to go for their vpn services as well?
