@Inittowinit3333 @SlopHq @neontaster So the solution is to generate more energy, not commit industrial suicide.

@Inittowinit3333 @SlopHq @neontaster Thousands of them too - it’s just that they are not in continental U.S. All offshored to China.

@ReubenR80027912 China is a hyper centralized, bi-furcated society that produces both high achievements and mass sufferings.

It is silly for socialists to hold it up as some mass democracy role model but to deny its technological prowess is also a bit silly.

@jersey_dck Not everyone gets to life like Rama Duwaji

@hecubian_devil Funny how your hypothetical assume 'lotteries', 'waitlists' allocate housing absent pricing signals. Anyone who's actually lived under a communist system knows it's 'Guanxi' 关系 i.e. who you know, that decides.

Markets triumph because ppl hate this type of cronyism even more.

@AndromedaPip China is secular, arguably the first to secularize as well.

@RtrnSanity And obviously, downwardly mobile white collar type are going to be a cohort with great revolutionary potential. And my guess is that these people are fundamentally at odds with the current iteration of DSA leadership

[featherman @rocket_feather]

@RtrnSanity More of a non-white, ex-colonial admin, bourgeoise counter-elite phenomenon for its vanguard class. But the volunteers and support base are indeed the bpd trust fund theater kids.

@morris_que14 This is BS. Truth is CCP Leadership deliberately spared students, seen as the future "elites", from the worst of the violence, while showing little restraint toward working-class protesters who blocked the roads to the Square. (source: my dad, college student in Beijing then)

@Mariusj001 it's the central founding myth of 二共，not so much for 一共

[featherman @rocket_feather]

@morris_que14 Taiwan/Korea are similar too in that regard. The difference being their platonic scholar guardians are the techno-industrial elites (Chaebols/TSMC) rather than any gov't officials.

[featherman @rocket_feather]

@martian_lore The PRC officials from 1949 to 1959 were very much the intellectual elites (i.e. Zhou Enlai) of their time. Peasant revolutionaries were only enabled by Mao during great leap forward and cultural revolution. Predictable results followed.

@PrazRama @throughnothing Unabomber would have much more of a cult following than any of the gen-z assassins; y2k scare would go hyperbolic

@PrazRama @chaumian Some things are better said under alt

@small215 This is exactly what he had done. Look at how he sets the screen for maxey and vj at top of key. He is not forcing offense through himself anymore

@whoisjessicawu @cncsubbottom69 哈哈brooklyn diaspora左派就是這樣的，説不過人就愛扣帽子。我又不是美國人，你駡白人這套對我沒什麽用。簡體繁體的討論中文圈太多了，願意去稍微瞭解一下也不會説出這麽完全錯誤的概念。

[featherman @rocket_feather]

@whoisjessicawu @cncsubbottom69 This is a lie. You can google original scripts from Han Dynasty (~2000 yrs ago) yourself. The funny thing is - I don't even think CCP today thinks simplification was a great accomplishment but western leftists of course eat it up.

@jwh_6800 @Noahpinion You rarely see obese low-income people in developing countries. When people work actual hard labor jobs, they tend to stay physically lean, even if they suffer from other serious health conditions. It's not ridiculous to say the U.S. currently faces a different set of problems.
