anyways here try some it is like breadtube without the b Venezuela’s opposition yet again cries fraud in the 28 July presidential but fails to provide evidence. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of Chavistas, their frustrations grounded in the understanding that the US-hybrid war is the root of the crisis, take to the streets and chant no volverán: they [the oligarchy] will not return. |

how capitalist is China? hasn't income inquality exploded there, and doesn't it keep getting worse? i hate 'china bad' as much as the next socialist, but still |

As I said to Wolfslice, in the West capital is in the driver's seat and the people are in the gas tank. In China the people are in the driver''s seat and capital is in the gas tank. If you can't handle a read, Carlos Martinez has a series of three interviews on Actually Existing Socialism that discuss China |

when you're indoctrinated into weird parasocial relationships with a multitude of identities that have been engineered into being your society's sacred cows & children, you typically tend to virtue signal over them, either out of fear, demented pathological altruism, or full blown narcissism. assuming you've been indoctrinated (and a little mentally ill), that is. politics & ideology are mostly low-tier manifestations of psychological expressions, hence why it's completely inane to look at politic & ideology through the lens of, well...politic & ideology. then again, abstraction does not seem to be a strong suit for those that gravitate towards "leftism" as they call it these days (what would they have called it 500 years ago? 1000 years ago? 5000 years ago? 10,000 years ago? hmmm?) |

I can gather what you're trying to say because I recognise the buzzwords you're using, but this is a remarkably incoherent collection of sentences! Care to go over it again? |

i'm now reading Ministry of the Future. it's pretty explain-y, maybe a bit much for a novel, but I guess so is Dune. anyway: ideology is a framework for abstracting reality. you can't go without, really |

maybe i'll read/watch but what you're saying vibes with my feeling about china i did watch the intro. it was a bit unsettling to me, honestly so i read SF all the time, so i guess i'm tech-forward. but mostly when i see it irl, these tech-y, or otherwise forward things, like for instance architecture, i feel it looks dystopian |

: "Right-wing US influencers say they were victims of alleged Russian plot" bit of an odd title, though they are saying that. Tucker Carlson, Tim Pool, Dave Rubin were shilling, but are claiming to be a victim. they were shilling allegedly, but the DOJ doesn't indict them for nothing. the article gives enough proof i guess and hope they're done now. but others will take their place |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's those right wing influencers and others. i'm guessing someone like Pool is done now, Carlson is probably like a cockroach that won't go away; he's a bit smarter |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

In a response to a request for comment on the indictment, RT's press team said: "2016 called and it wants its clichés back". lmao what a thing to say, you can really see how every troll and paid liar's learned their style from them. |

I read this passage in the new translation of Losurdo's book on Western Marxism and thought of this discussion: Let's try to formulate an initial summary of the different forms that Marxism takes in Europe and in Asia. According to Merleau-Ponty, Marx imagined “a noncapitalistic future” that he hoped would be an “absolute Other.” This vision, well-represented in Western Marxism, is absent in the East. The underdeveloped countries, before they can completely tear down capitalism, first must, and want to, enjoy the “miracle” of the wonderful development of the productive forces that the Communist Manifesto rightly attributes to that social system. We find Mao in 1940 declaring that the revolution he was promoting, before moving on to socialism must “clear the way for capitalist development,” even if a capitalism strictly controlled by a political power and by a party determined to go well beyond it in carrying out the revolutionary transformation of the existing society. For the Chinese Communist leader, the post-capitalist future is not an “absolute Other” to the regime that it is intended to replace; more than a total negation, we find ourselves before a sort of Hegelian Aufhebung, a negation that carries with it, even if in a radically new context, the heritage of the high points of that which is negated. It is a question of transcending capitalism but without compromising. It further strengthens the capacity for developing the productive forces to which it gives impetus. |

i mean she would also have been justified yelling at the racist shit stirrer. but the lesson here is: never engage with idiots trying to disrupt your protest, especially if they're waving a camera in your face, and let the muscle handle it. |

in ministry of the future india gives a middle finger to the west and also proceeds to revolutionize their agroculture, actually making it communist. climate justice (and economic justice) will vibe badly together with neocolonialism and imperialism |

That's not science fiction, that's fantasy. Too many Hindutva fascists. |

that's explained away quickly the book starts with (spoilers for beginning of Ministry for the Future) a heat wave that kills 3 million Indian people. it's quite a good chapter. in the later chapter i mentioned it's explained that BJP was in power wheb that happened, so they get blamed (not too rationally, but politics isn't). so then a broad coalition comes into power. and there's other factions as well |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
big, if 300 million Indians die in a heat wave it will be blamed on Muslims, they'll have anti Muslim pogroms, and the BJP will announce closer ties with Israel and the US |

here's a jacobin interview with the writer of Ministry of the Future (and many more books), Kim Stanley Robinson: "Kim Stanley Robinson Imagines a Future Where We Don’t All Die" i liked this interview a lot when i read, which was a while ago |

2020 feels like decades ago AMPI MAX used to quite rightly give me shit for linking to Jacobin, but crucially, for the wrong reasons. His critique such as it was came from the Blairite right. Anyhow no comment on the content of that article but |

/r/youtubedrama doesn't know, so it's unknown i don't know him, so guess i'll have to binge his videos now ( is the most recent channel i binged. not too vegan unfortunately) |

('s a video on gentrification, in relation to The Bear, as a palet cleanser; The Bear is probably what put me onto this fine dining/michelin star channel) |

It shows how insanely siloed youtube audiences are. Here's this guy with 24 million subscribers and tens of millions of view on each of his uploads and he just disappears one day and no one takes notice. Wrong age group for Reddit I guess, I get the impressions Collins Key slop was aimed at toddlers to preteens. some of the comments like "Pls come back dude u shaped our childhood" flol jesus |

youtubedrama tho, holy shit that's some concentrated brain damage I'm so upset.. First Synnibear03 (aka ScootalooLovesSans), turns out to be a groomer, and now SaberSpark supports grooming apparently? TurkeyTom Resorts to Racist Stereotypes, Mocking Indians to Discuss the Cancellation of His Trip to India Lily Orchard caught in 4K revealing she kept quiet about a grown man dating a minor for 10 years, and lying saying she was blackmailed Animator Birdie moved out of groomer Synnibear03's apartment GrandLineReview’s latest video features a sponsor from TalkieAI, an app that not only steals voices, but allegedly features sexualized minors detecting a theme here |

this was quite good btw starts a bit silly with the ginger bread man, the rest can be read as serious. it's nuanced, with the comments on how race discrimination intersects with capitalism and how the various characters all aren't perfectly a representation of just one mindset, e.g. proletariat |
