  • Commando Raid To Secure Iran’s Enriched Uranium May Become A Very Risky Necessity

    No it fucking won't. Stay the fuck out of Iran.

  • It's good 👍. People might assume it's short for Clifford.

  • possibility of terrible things happening to Itamar Ben-Gvir

    Oh my God please I beg you. Getting my

    and
    ready for the (hopeful) big announcement 🍿

  • Anarchists taking strays 😆 we hate rainbow capitalism lol 😆

  • Here's your eta: η

  • Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes! Imagine doing Fourier analysis without trig! (Complex exponentials are still trig, before anyone gets any ideas 😁)

  • I mean I'm an anarchist and I got to my position by reading 🤷

  • I love helping and working on things. What kind of things? I dunno. Tell me what you're doing. Now we're doing it.

    Great attitude! You're gonna have some great stories when you get older 😁.

  • I agree with you, I just want to make it clear that it's not the OP of the thread being an asshole, because the troll is trying to make zir look bad.

  • Just so you know: the person you're responding to is impersonating OP.

  • What part of control theory are you focused on?

    PM me for more details since I don't wanna doxx myself, but my interest is in nonlinear high-dimensional dynamical systems.

  • Yup!

  • Yes exactly, in an anarchist society I wouldn't stop doing control¹ theory, I would do even more control theory because I wouldn't have to worry about publishing profitable results, because I'm autistic and for some reason, math makes me happy.

    ¹ Control of dynamical systems, e.g. steering the state of a differential equation, i.e. math, not authoritarian control 😁

  • One of my special interests is music production, specifically extreme metal. ~99% of the time, metal guitars are recorded in the studio with either a speaker cabinet loaded with a Celestion Vintage 30 guitar speaker¹, or an impulse response recorded by someone else who owns a cabinet loaded with Vintage 30s. And back when I picked this username on Rddit, the fad was "PM_ME_{fetish}", for example "PM_ME_FEET_PICS". So I decided to subvert expectations by picking something not sexual 😆.

    ¹ Sometimes, speaker cabinets have different speaker brands within one cabinet to blend the sounds together. Because we typically place microphones right in front of the speaker, when cabinets have multiple different speakers, we usually mic one of each distinct speaker if we have the mics to do it. If I only had one mic, I'd mic up the Vintage 30, probably right up against the speaker cone (or mesh if the cabinet has one) adjusted to taste according to where I need it to sit in the mix 🤘😈🤘

  • It's usually good to push people on this distinction IMO, but in this specific instance, the person whose post OP is reposting is literally a Palestinian living in a tent in Gaza begging for donations because all her possessions have been destroyed by

    . She probably knows it's a genocide and understands the distinction (modulo translating to English) 🙃.

  • Yeah I know, but thank you for pointing that out. Like I'm under no pretense that Parenti is anything but an authoritarian Marxist, but I'd rather read an authoritarian Marxist (with the utmost skepticism for his biases and revisionism) than a self-described anarcho-syndicalist who's in the Epstein Files.

  • I have terrible news for you about Prodhoun, Kropotkin, and Bakunin.

    Yeah I'm aware 😞. Hence why we should read these texts critically and skeptically (every text in every field of endeavor forever, actually) with a historical understanding of the author's flaws and biases. In my view, these thinkers actually made original contributions to anarchist thought, unlike Chomsky with the exception of Manufacturing Consent. Frankly, I actually do think that, unless you are doing historical research into how anarchists used to think, we really need to recommend and consult contemporary works as much as possible. I.e., anarchism absolutely has a problem with the ghosts of problematic white men infecting our thoughts.

    Most anarchists I know aren't obsessed with purity of character the same way hierarchical ideologies deify and airbrush their founders.

    Neither am I...but Chomsky is absolutely beyond the pale. Like okay you don't have to be perfect or even that good, but come on... Chomsky's cooked.

    it is possible for someone to roast and eat babies and still be able to say true and insightful things about politics. Moral failings do not make one politically impotent, and moral virtue is not a replacement for intellectual insight.

    Yeah, some moral failings absolutely do, at least without some attempt at rehabilitation and fixing what was broken, for the simple reason that it demonstrates that the intellectual doesn't seriously believe in what they are arguing against. Again, we can absolutely disagree on the parameters of what moral failings makes someone politically impotent, but they certainly exist, e.g. roasting and eating babies... and I'm certain based on my perusals of the Epstein Files that Chomsky has provided one of the best practical examples in recent memory!
