  • What's wrong with Yudkowsky, if I may ask?

  • From what I read and am planning, possibly.

  • It seems like the shitlib's complaint isn't that the U.S. military is a fascist, neo-colonialist, imperialist army of mindless Stormtroopers, but that the violence isn't focused or financed enough.

  • It wasn't until the last line of the video that I agreed with the title

  • Wait, he does?

  • I LOVE and highly recommend Miniminuteman

  • I don't mean to sound like a dick or fight you on this, and I understand your point of view, but I vehemently disagree. As much as I hate both Trump and Kamala, and as much as both need bullets in their heads, Kamala and the democrats are typically much smarter about at least giving the appearance of objectivity, and human-rights related fluff and posturing, and most Amerikkkans would go along with it way more easily, unlike Trump.

    I think many people would be more bendable and willing to suck up to the democrats if Kamala was elected, which would greatly prolong the U.S. empire. Trump is almost on the verge of bringing the empire crashing down, like taking a pickaxe to a dike or a dam. Not to say that Trump himself isn't intelligent or manipulative, but he's evil and stupid enough to admit the quiet part out loud too many times.

    I'm speaking as a Latino Texan.

  • I argue that many Americans unfortunately care about China overtaking the U.S., but for all the wrong reasons.

  • I like to imagine that Stalin would have, as well

  • I thought it was the CIA that had JFK assassinated? I'm not necessarily overly doubting you, just wondering how you came to that conclusion.

  • Tara Reade, right?

    I also don't trust Russia.

    I'm planning something to get me to China, though.

  • This is always such a useless and thought-terminating cliche: While it looks (and arguably is) horrible that the Communist Party of China has or is affiliated with billionaires, the truth is that billionaires (at least not ones connected to state-owned enterprises) have almost no political power in the government as a whole.

    Billionaires and the rich are tolerated for different reasons, but ultimate power rests with the CPC, which control the commanding heights of the economy, and almost always direct it in a pro-working class way.

    Even Lenin argued that socialism is basically a more advanced version of state capitalism, except with the proceeds going towards average working people and society as a whole.

    Comparing modern China to the USSR is almost apples to oranges. The USSR had very little time to build socialism, and had to brute force it.

    According to Marx's original writings, he strongly argued AGAINST this. He argued that it would be best for a socialist society to slowly and steadily nationalize/collectivize workplaces and economic entities, as they maximized gains from the slow capitalist transition, because they outlived their usefulness, and centralization would be the next logical step, instead of random companies accumulating profit inefficiently.

  • I'm hoping to plan something to escape the U.S. before then

  • I LOVE Pleistocene Park, I've followed it for a few years.

  • This is fucking awesome, but I can't be the only one who thinks the shape of this thing is... intriguing.

  • I would do literally anything to get to Chengdu, now. I am literally begging.

  • While I'm not Chinese, I've read that there have been instances, both modern and historical, of definite racism in China.

    That all being said, while racism is always a horrible issue, I don't think China's issues of racism are NEARLY to the same extent or intensity as in the west.

    While I'm sure that I'm generalizing, its truly remarkable how surprisingly multicultural that China is.

    It seems like that Chinese people/citizens don't care where people come from (not in a malicious or arrogant way, I mean), they primarily care about who you are as a person and what your role in society is, which matters far more.

    Also, I thought that China recognized roughly 57 different groups? But that might just be main ethnic groups, and I'm not doubting that there are 37 or more different minority groups, now that I think about it.

  • I'm also curious where you see that Xi has mostly targeted revisionist Shanghai politicians.

    I'm not disagreeing with you, or not entirely, but I feel like you have something specific relating to this.

  • I have alot of respect for Li Qiang, and while I understand being wary of officials advocating even for limited market forces, he seems to be one of the more genuine and driven and simultaneously pro-marxist officials in the party.

    Is there anything in particular that makes you very wary of him?

    I've read from some separate comradely sources that China has now effectively kneecapped Amerikkka's nuclear weapons. China prevented nuclear war without firing a shot.

    I'm hoping to move to China within the next 2-ish years. Are there any VPN's that comrades recommend?
