Fascism and neoliberalism aren't mutually exclusive, though I see what you're getting at.

I mean, if I put effort into it I can just visualise reality, or the closest thing the human mind can synthesise. However, if I'm not actively thinking about it, most of the time things just crop up looking like a medieval manuscript.

i'm thinking about their claim that "the predominant topic of discussion" among tankies is the uyghur "genocide." like bro there's 99 more percentiles of non-uyghur related topics. i see a post about xinjiang on here like once a month.

i'm pretty sure it's two clauses; lemmygrad upholds the DPRK's sovereignty and upholds its legitimacy over the whole of korea.

Same. When I was younger, I also used to do it neutral evil style, but that's not really a sustainable habit.

Yes, we workers and the mass of small proprietors lead a life that is filled with unbearable oppression and suffering. Things are harder for our generation than they were for our fathers. But in one respect we are luckier than our fathers. We have begun to learn and are rapidly learning to fight—and to fight not as individuals, as the best of our fathers fought, not for the slogans of bourgeois speechifiers that are alien to us in spirit, but for our slogans, the slogans of our class. We are fighting better than our fathers did. Our children will fight better than we do, and they will be victorious.
- Vladimir Lenin, The Working Class and Neo-Malthusianism

the lucky thing about december making life seem unliveable is that december is also very keen to kill you so the problem just sort of solves itself. hope you didn't hurt yourself too badly.

I think that it's just a technology like any other, and we can't get caught up in Ludditism. New technologies will always be misused in the interest of capitalist growth. Art has long, long been commodified, and this is just the next step in devaluing its creators - just like any other industry. Besides, in this situation specifically there's not really anything you could do to fight back against it - there's no factory to burn down. People have been trying to extend copyright laws to crack down on AI art, but like. Come on.

What're your thoughts on the concept? From what I've read, what's most commonly allegated as "colonialism" in the USSR is stuff like the dependency of Central Asia on goods from Moscow (sometimes spun as the "metropolis") and systems inherited from the Tsarist government which were phased out during centralisation, so the foundation for such an argument seems shaky - especially considering the massive efforts to modernise the colonial territories that the Soviet government undertook. The closest thing I can really find is the deportation of the Crimean Tatars, which was definitely bad but was also a singular event brought upon by the second world war and not really indicative of a greater system of colonialism at play.

Literally. Why would anyone deny the slave trade between Africa and the Middle East? The only place this person exists is in the mind of people who want to feel superior to the cringe leftists.
