It seems that neither “copyright” nor “trademark” are necessary for this conversation.
At https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protective_sign I found these sources:It seems that https://www.congress.gov/109/plaws/publ366/PLAW-109publ366.pdf is what is referenced by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_Commissions_Act_of_2006#cite_note-1
Any person subject to this chapter who, after inviting the confidence or belief of one or more persons that they were entitled to, or obliged to accord, protection under the law of war, intentionally makes use of that confidence or belief in killing, injuring, or capturing such person or persons shall be punished, if death results to one or more of the victims, by death or such other punishment as a military commission under this chapter may direct, and, if death does not result to any of the victims, by such punishment, other than death, as a military commission under this chapter may direct.
I assume that a country that does not enforce international law is more likely to be affected by UN peacekeeping operations, which probably makes enforcing international law vastly preferable: https://www.ibanet.org/article/CEBC5F69-A238-49BB-B85A-5E8D878FE485
Writers need to be interpreted, because it’s unlikely that they actually understand what they wrote. Therefore, when employing a novel to address a problem, my interpretation is probably more important than the original work.
It’s not even clear that Bram Stoker had a good understanding of the word “Dracula”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=2467&v=BvFwqVzEsfw
I believe that a vampire is a representation of exploitative forces that you invite into your own life but could avoid if you chose to. A policeman is hard to avoid, especially if they have a warrant. Therefore, a vampire cannot be a policeman in the first place, since the state of being a policeman overwhelms the state of being a vampire.

thirtyfold8625@thebrainbin.orgto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•Why shouldn't justice be punitive?11·22 days agoI don’t think criminal law can be useful without punishment.
In criminal law, a sentence forms the final explicit act of a judge-ruled process, and also the symbolic principal act connected to his function. In criminal law, a sentence is the punishment for a crime ordered by a trial court
I did find https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_law#Objectives_of_criminal_law interesting.

I recognize “Uni” the cat from https://youtube.com/@Unicouniuni3
I think that this video gave me the best insight into how China works nowadays, and I suspect things weren’t entirely dissimilar in the past: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1TeeIG6Uaw I also looked into things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_People’s_Congress and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Congress_of_the_Chinese_Communist_Party after starting from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China and it seems that things are pretty complicated. For example: Due to the temporary nature of the plenary sessions, most of NPC’s power is delegated to the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPCSC), which consists of about 170 legislators and meets in continuous bi-monthly sessions, when its parent NPC is not in session.

Someone could truthfully say, “He died, but he’s not dead”. “Briton Audrey Schoeman revived after six-hour cardiac arrest”

The default browser for any operating system that isn’t created by Microsoft or Google is probably suitable for most people.
For real-time communication, the most suitable solutions are probably documented around https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/ (note that email is not recommended for person-to-person conversations).
