  • That's infuriating to read. They're probably just racist. They wouldn't apply that same logic to western countries, even though all capitalist countries rely on exploitation and expropriation, capitalism is undemocratic, needs patriarchy to survive and inevitably gives rise to fascism and ecocide.

    They say, they hate every state equally, but you don't here them say: "I heard an earthquake struck in Belgium, well I feel for the victims, but I sure hope the evil Belgian regime is overthrown soon." or "I'm going out for French fries, btw may the French people rise up and fight for their freedom."

  • It's suspicious, that the text is blurry too.

  • If that was what the war is about, they could have achieved that much easier. Iran had already agreed to get rid of all of that enriched uranium during the negotiations, that were cut short by this unprovoked terrorist war of aggression. International observers would have made sure they keep up the deal. The mediator from Oman had already booked the venue in Geneva, where the peace celebrations were to take place. Then they opened the war by bombing an elementary school, twice.

    I kind of feel like screaming.

  • Ten years is already much more than what capitalist societies are able to plan for. So climate change is not taken into account, once again.

    Many might have read that already, but the thing with bringing about the apocalypse on purpose is allegedly what they tell their soldiers what this war is about. Makes sense, that the ideology of a system in deep crisis would become apocalyptical.

  • The fascist death cult needs war. What they fear most is peace. They attack during negotiations, they murder children and diplomats, they commit every atrocity known to humanity and invent new ones. They are suffering from their own hate and fear. It's merciful to stop them.

  • Good bloomer content

  • Isn't it likely they just did it on purpose? A simple terrorist attack with the usual purpose: to instill terror in the population. Douple tapping an elementary school with very expensive missiles by accident seems unlikely. Using AI for targeting in the first wave seems unlikely too. They had very good and highly up to date intel with the whereabouts of all these leaders.

  • Just really goes to show how much the wealth of the imperial core always depended on cheaply expropriating labor and resources from the periphery.

  • Yes and the imperial core countries structurally rely on shit like this going on in the periphery to continue.

  • Oh, so it's probably BS than.

  • Ironically, it is generally hitting Trump's supporters the hardest (as they tend to like driving larger, less fuel-efficient vehicles).

    In these troubled times, we find joy in the littlest things.

  • I've never personally heard or read anyone say that last part, but it's so true, I'll be saying it from now on. Only difference is, Marxism actually helps you stay sane. In Lovecrafts world, knowledge is dangerous and can cost you you're sanity. In our world, knowledge is power. Without Marxism, I'd be confused and angry all the time. With Marxism, I'm still angry, but at least I know why.

  • They are not even impressing anyone with this talk. The imperialist West dosn't care about pretending about the rules based order anymore and is turning to mask off fascism and imperialism. And the victims of imperialism already know the rules never applied equally. Seems like China is becoming the very last bastion of liberal idealism in the whole world.

  • You're right to be sceptical and again right to point out, that the distinction between theoretical and experimental physics is unique among the sciences. There's a good reason and a bad reason. The good reason is, that physics needs so much math, that math can't always keep up. Theoretical physics sometimes delivers the math to experimental physics that's needed to model real experimental findings.

    The bad reason is that some fields of physics, like particle physics, have been stagnating for about fifty years. Many important experiments have been done since than, but they only confirmed the standard model and didn't produce any big surprises. And for what open questions exist, theoretical physics didn't produce any new models or theories that could be tested in praxis (or mostly even in principle). That's the second reason why theoretical physics split from experimental physics. The models in development diverged from the models in use and the two stopped being linked by experimental results.

    However, that's only true for some subfields (particle physics and foundations). In quantum computing, quantum mechanics, solid state physics, cosmology, fluid mechanics and other fields, theory and experiment continue to work hand in hand and produce amazing results. And even in particle physics, things are not that black and white and new ideas are being tried out.

  • "We can't actually build brains. Even if we can make simulations of the size of a brain, we can't make simulations of the brain."

    Seems like an important distinction. Still cool though.

  • There never was a cease fire. Or rather it was completely one-sided. Israel never stopped bombing Lebanon after the so called cease fire.
