  • Please tell me again why I should have any solidarity with the western leftists?

  • I’m going to assume you’re American or European; please correct me if I’m wrong. The lack of ideological and practical gatekeeping is a large part of why you have no successful movements. You just allow wreckers, 白左, and radlibs to identify themselves with your organizations, diluting your purpose and misdirecting your energy.

    Every successful revolutionary movement, from Lenin’s Bolsheviks to the Vietnamese revolutionaries, had to rigorously distinguish between genuine comrades and opportunists. Gatekeeping is about preserving the unity of purpose necessary to advance the material interests of the proletariat. Without it, the contradictions within the movement overshadow the struggle against the real enemy.

    The contradiction between global-souths aims(anti-imperialist, anti-capitalist, materially grounded) and the reformist or liberal tendencies of the western left is fundamental. Solidarity cannot exist where the goals are diametrically opposed. Understanding who is genuinely on the side of the people is a prerequisite for any meaningful cooperation.

  • The foundation of a chatbot is at its core the same as many supremely useful AI technologies such as those used to diagnose cancer early. The chatbot incarnation of this technology is caused by the capitalist need to ever expand it's profit/rent seeking. This is exactly my loom point, just because capitalists use technology to do bad things doesn't make the technology bad.

  • What I think leads to the exact scenario you describe is a widespread, persistent and self-defeating tendency among many western leftists (白左), the failure to fully deprogram themselves from the liberal frameworks they ostensibly reject. While they may adopt the language of anti-imperialism, Marxism, or decolonization, their analysis remains tethered to idealist assumptions inherited from bourgeois liberalism: an overemphasis on individual identity over material conditions, a moralistic rather than dialectical understanding of power, and a faith in discourse, representation, or symbolic gestures as sufficient engines of change. This results in a house of cards, an ostensibly radical posture built not on historical materialism or class struggle, but on the shifting sands of liberal morality. Consequently, their “anti-imperialism” often collapses into performative outrage or selective solidarity, unable to grapple with the concrete contradictions of global capitalism, state power, or revolutionary praxis. True internationalism demands more than repackaged liberal guilt; it requires breaking cleanly with the epistemological foundations of liberalism and grounding one’s politics in the real movements of oppressed peoples, not in abstract ideals filtered through a Western gaze.

  • You should try materialism. Hating any technology in it's entirety is silly. Why hate the loom simply because the capitalist uses it to further exploit the workers. Hate the capitalist and work to retake the loom for the benefit of the people.

  • Oh this is an easy one. You shouldn't. Solidarity relies on having a shared goal/purpose. We of the global south have diametrically opposed goals to the average western treatlerite "leftist". Obviously there are some genuine leftists in the west but they are far outnumbered unfortunately.

  • Your argument relies on moral outrage and abstract ethics rather than material analysis. You frame the issue as data centres harm poor communities, corporations are bad, therefore AI is immoral. That is ethical idealism. A dialectical materialist approach instead asks who owns the technology, who controls the surplus, which class gains power from it, and how it transforms relations of production. Without those questions, the analysis never moves beyond surface impressions.

    Calling something a multibillion-dollar conglomerate is not an analysis. The decisive issue is which state and which class structure directs it. A Chinese firm operating within China’s socialist market economy is part of a system defined by state planning, public ownership in commanding sectors, industrial policy, and long-term national development goals. This is not comparable to Silicon Valley venture capital, US defense-linked monopolies, or rent-seeking finance capital. The size of capital does not determine its class character, and treating all large-scale production as inherently capitalist ignores the actual structure of the Chinese system.

    This specific example fits into the broader Chinese development model as a whole. That system has produced clear and measurable benefits for the Chinese people through rapid industrialization, infrastructure construction, rising living standards, and the elimination of absolute poverty. Internationally, it has helped create a new multipolar pole that weakens imperial monopoly over development financing and technology. Through the Belt and Road Initiative, China has enabled massive infrastructure construction across the Global South, including railways, ports, power generation, telecommunications, and logistics networks that Western capital refused to build because profit rates were too low.

    Those outcomes are not ideological claims but material facts. Over 900 million people were lifted from poverty, China built the world’s largest high-speed rail network, expanded its national energy grid, upgraded its industrial base, and achieved a high degree of technological self-reliance. The BRI has provided long-term financing and physical infrastructure across Asia, Africa, and Latin America, helping countries escape dependence on IMF austerity and underdevelopment. This is development rooted in productive investment, not charity or branding.

    The question of data centres in Malaysia is a separate issue and must be analyzed materially rather than morally. Infrastructure hosting is not exploitation in itself. What matters is whether it produces domestic employment, technology transfer, tax revenue, energy upgrades, and integration into higher stages of production. Those concrete relations determine whether such projects deepen dependency or contribute to development, not abstract condemnation of infrastructure as such.

    Your idea of social good treats socialism as distribution without production. Universal healthcare cannot exist through moral assertion alone. It requires trained doctors, hospitals, logistics systems, energy supply, and industrial surplus. Industrial surplus requires advanced productive forces. China’s path was to build that material base first and then expand social provision on top of it, which is precisely why those programs became sustainable rather than rhetorical.

    There is also a sharp irony in an Irish person(going off your username please correct me if I'm wrong) directing moral condemnation at the Chinese development model. Ireland has been governed for roughly a century by the Fianna Fáil–Fine Gael blueshirt uniparty, which has steadily sold out the Irish working class in the interests of foreign capital. The result is an economy structured around tax haven status for US multinationals, with little industrial sovereignty and minimal democratic control over production. While corporate profits soar on paper, living conditions deteriorate. The healthcare system remains in permanent crisis, homelessness continues to rise year after year, housing is treated as a speculative asset rather than a social necessity, and rent-seeking dominates large sections of the economy.

    This situation persists in part because there is no real organized proletarian opposition capable of challenging the political consensus. Power circulates within the same narrow elite, allowing political failsons like Simon Harris to rise steadily through the state apparatus despite repeated incompetence. Billions of taxpayer euros are burned on disasters such as the National Children’s Hospital, emblematic of a system where public funds are privatized through mismanagement while accountability is nonexistent. At the same time, energy-intensive American data centres continue to expand across the country with minimal scrutiny.

    In this context, condemning China’s development model rings hollow. China subordinates capital to national development through planning and state direction, while Ireland has subordinated society to capital under a neoliberal uniparty regime.

  • Hence critical support.

    Just on a seperate but connected sort of tangent from everything I've seen Amerikkkan and €uropean unions have already been subsumed by the capitalist machine and become simple labor mediators, an extension of corporate hr so honestly their destruction in their current form would be necessary anyway but I see where you're coming from.

    Either way I was mostly memeing.

  • Taking Trump or any fascist leader to be the originator/nucleus/sustainer of fascism is greatman theory, that fascism lives or dies with a single leader. That’s liberal idealism.

    Fascism arises from material conditions: capitalist crisis, imperial decline, petty-bourgeois collapse, and the absence of a strong proletarian movement. Trump like all the fascist leaders before him and the probably unfortunately many to come didn’t create those conditions, they emerged from them.

    Removing a leader doesn’t resolve the contradictions that produced him. But it also doesn’t guarantee an immediate replacement either, because those contradictions express themselves unevenly and through struggle inside the ruling class itself.

    Without organized proletarian opposition, those struggles will ultimately be resolved on capital’s terms, whether through a new figure, a restructured coalition, or expanded repression.

  • Possibly but writing in Chinese is much more convoluted than many other languages thanks to stroke order and the like so I'd still say youd be way better off replacing it with simply a bunch of comprehensible input. Read loads of kids books/books for beginners and watch a bunch of cartoons/shows with simple language in chinese with subtitles.
