25, My identity and pronouns are whatever you want them to be.

Not a member of either, but a critical observer of the Comintern (SH) and the CIPOML.

  • I know it's just a funny meme comic but Ive got a whole elaborate world in my head that I zone out to with all my favorite people and characters. I kinda thought it was something everyone did?

  • Im not really sure what instance to switch to. Lemmy.zip maybe? I just want to be able to interact with as many people as possible (until I'm banned or blocked ofc).

  • Anyone who has used rednote for over an hour knows Chinese people are:

    1. Aware of Tiananmen Square
    2. Able to acknowledge it as a tragedy
    3. Fully allowed to share that information
  • Much appreciated comrade.

  • So honestly? I found the article to be somewhat sound. Despite my own personal gripes with everything bad being described as "deviation from maoism" or "trotskyism" and the rap stuff, I think they articulated their points well enough. I know as a Hoxha stan im supposed to declare ideological warfare with Maoists or some crap like that, but this was okay. Long winded and a bit cringe, but still fine. I've not read the other side of this though so maybe everything in this was a huge fabricated lie. I'll gladly waste hours of my time reading whatever people send me if that is the case.

  • I'm willing to hear them out, and I'm still reading, but jesus christ:

    "Unfortunately for the (New) Communist Party of Canada, their recently published “(N)CPC-CC Reply to the OCR’s ‘Red Salute’” lacks the substance and swagger of those battle rap classics. Politically, it somehow manages to combine the pathetic posturing heard on J. Cole’s Might Delete Later with the unearned arrogance of Drake’s “Family Matters” in a sad attempt to attack the Organization of Communist Revolutionaries and the politics of the journal kites."

    Edit: Oh god the whole article has rap quotes whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  • Headphone amps: exist

  • Audiophile cope in the comments is hilarious. A $30 pair of IEMs plugged into a 7 year old flagship phone is high enough quality that most people won't want anything crazier the rest of their life. A $150 pair of over ear headphones plugged into a cheap DAC from AliExpress is good enough to achieve full fidelity for anyone.

    I can't wait until one of you nerds tries to tell me you can tell the difference between a flac and a 256kbps AAC file too.

  • What did you say?

  • At this rate, randos are gonna have to spend hours at a time analyzing if a single meme posted on the internet is AI, just to accomplish absolutely nothing.

    Looks good OP.

  • Shit happens. Plenty of westerners have visited and been fine too.

  • This goes hard.

  • TY!

  • To clarify: I have certain expectations that I hold a socialist country to. The best case scenario would be that the DPRK meets all my expectations and is a socialist paradise. I have no belief that the DPRK does or does not meet those expectations.

  • XHS? Is this some kind of app?

  • I do wish finding information about them was easier. It always ends up being a game of believing either the US state department, or the DPRK. Obviously can't trust a word the US says, but I remain skeptical of what the DPRK says in a guided tour or in a glorified advertisement showing off a single new apartment building.

    Would absolutely love to visit some day though. At worst, they don't live up to my expectations of a socialist paradise and are just like any other country. At best, they exceed my expectations and I become a follower of Juche. 😂

  • It takes work, and it takes emotional patience with people. Screaming at the top of our lungs that we must have revolution does nothing. We must be teachers first, show the masses that their attempts at reforms are failing. If they are rational at all, they will listen. If they are not rational, getting angry and scolding them does nothing.

    The western left (and I self-criticize when I say this because it applies to me as well) tends to be very infantile, very impatient, and has relatively low levels of militancy within it. I'm a full on hoxhaist. I have a very specific view on what I want socialism to look like, and what strategies I believe are actually beneficial. That being said, if I spend the bulk of my time engaged in disrespecting other tendencies instead of doing literally anything I will never see the world I want. No bunkers will be built, and I will be sad. ☹️

    The average person just wants to see us do something. How often do communist parties in the west actually organize things themselves as opposed to hopping onto some liberal groups thing? If we can't even, for example organize our own red aid in a remotely comparable way to what some rando charity is doing, we got a long ass way to go ya know? There is hardly room to bicker and try to dictate peoples lives and views until we've proven to be a force of good.

  • Here in the US i've been told about people being forced to walk on hot coals and having lighters burn the palm of their hand as long as they can handle. Kids have literally killed themselves at these camps. Fuck the idea they should just be illegal, any parent that puts their kid through this should get 10-15 in prison.
