  • That's a cool mindset, if the fck around part is not too extreme

  • Which ones do you find most useful?

  • Intrinsic motivation?

  • Less bad is good there too

    And as you said, not a good comparison.

    Pollution going beyond the capacity of our environment is the issue, right? Every decent improvement is a good thing there. Not that we should stay silent with that, but we should be cheering for improvements and encouraging them.

  • Less bad is good, right?

    Obviously, stuff like better public transportation will be goodElectric buses, trains etc

    Have been hearing about China's solar adoption and them looking into thorium reactors.My country, India, seems to be looking more into solar too.

    I think it's a correct direction. Though, the pace needs to be a bit faster

  • Reporting and fining drunken drivers need to speed up in the location.

  • Are electric cars a net improvement?I've heard that they are, because electricity can ve produced more efficiently and pollution can be better handled than individual car exhausts

  • What happens when the US and allies forments coups and starts bombing you?

    Obviously, peaceful means are preferred by most people.Like, why would they allow you to take power peacefully?

    Imagine you take power and want to redistribute land to the common people who were exploited and forced to be landless or without proper homes in the previous regime? Would not the ultrawealthy landowners try to coup you and get support of US and other countries?

    Then you'll have to go there, right?Or you'll have to stop or allow yourself to be couped.

    Like, in Russia, they took power away from a monarchy and came into power with the slogans of 'Land, peace and bread:. They faced an attack by the White army, which was supported by major foreign powers.

    In China, they took power away from Japanese colonialism and subsequent mix of Koumingtang rule which violently opposed communists and the public who wanted land reform.

    In Vietnam, they fought French colonialism and US invasion.

    Similarly, in Korea, US installed a dictatorship to kill people who may have been even slightly sympathetic to socialism.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodo_League_massacre

    Even in the case of slavery in US, the North, under the Lincoln govt, had to fight the south, right? Republicans were attacked in the south by Racial supremacist groups on that too.

  • Compared to the Western govts? Much more likely

  • Is USAmerica(worlds largest superpower) a successful capitalist country?Is slavery and Eps stuff a success?Success would need to be defined then, right?

    And your notions on everyone having to be perfect seems to be wrong. The main basis of Communism is who owns the means of production and the level of development. The minority of the ultrawealthy in capitalism vs the majority of the regular people in communism.Also, capitalist planning that focuses on profit and externalises social cost vs general planning that thinks about the 'externalised stuff'.

    And if you want to go deeper into critiques of capitalism and why we need to plan beyond that, I think looking up aspects like the crisis of overproduction and the tendency of the falling rate of profit might be good.Others here maybe better able to explain more on that.

  • Hypocritical, yes, but different from directly voting in favor, although effect is similar.

  • They abstained from the voteSo the last panel of them joining in would be incorrect, right?

  • Total unsupport

    A mixed diet is what most people in developing nations would be able to afford decently. Especially in places with higher child stunting n all, this would be very problematic.

  • Who uses that term tho?I think it's used by progressives. So they might be blind to loneliness of women?

  • Using a famine to justify Nazi glorification?

  • Shouldn't the vanguard be found everywhere?

  • Bite-sized stuff?

    I see cool quotes or memes that are also linked to recent/contemporary things and it gets my interest to look more into it

    I have a friend and she thinks "its posh" to read theory.

    Well, maybe recommending things that would be directly useful for her or things that she likes would be good?And tell that it'll also be useful to counter fake narratives and provide clarity in talking about it to others?

  • Is there a leaked NATO playbook.The article on NATO seems to be painting it in a positive way and does not detail nor critique it's policies unlike the other articles you shared against the ones whom NATO targets.

    For "the West", as you keep saying, I'm not exactly sure what you mean. There is "no West ", so to speak, as it's actually used as a framework to be positioned against the East , or Global South.

    USA America, western colonial nations etc.USA + EU in general sense. As you said, NATO and its collaborators would be more accurate.

    To understand " the West" it's important to understand what came after WW2 in Europe, when Russia profiled itself more and more as an enemy than a friend. It invaded and annexed many European countries during and after WW2

    Wasn't the West afraid of Soviet influence too? Or more accurately, loss of control over Easter Europe?Operation Gladio would come under NATO playbook, right?

    Add: I responded in good faith, so I do hope my efforts are not in vain.

    Me too. I too commented in good faith. Hoping that you are actually responding in good faith too.

    Anyway, thanks for the links. Will try to read them or get through summaries and also search for articles critiquing the NATO's and EU's playbook too

  • And as I have read those playbooks, I recognise these narratives, as you probably should too.

    Is there a literal playbook for it? Please do link it or mention its name. And if you have access to or know the Western playbook, please share that too.

    And could the playbook rhetoric be a part of that playbook, used for trivialising things?

    People in developing countries do notice both playbooks.

    Regarding Trump, even before him EU haa generally followed US invasions. Trump is the most recent and most open(which obviously puts off many on their own side, who like to dress it up or self-justify their actions).

    So yes, Europe isn't perfect, the first to admit that are Europeans. But when we are being bashed for the sake of bashing, that's not longer a dialogue.

    Disinformation is an issue in India as well

    Yep. And as you said, Indians are the first to admit it and talk against it.
