@UngratefulFungi@ayrtonsennapods@lil_caesar69 Personal experience, common sense, MDMA is likely to be cut with other harmful stuff, and if not, pure MDMA commonly used will fry your dopamine receptors lol
Its not on the same plane as cannabis or alcohol or even some psychedelics
@ayrtonsennapods@UngratefulFungi Im not really a drinker, I smoke cannabis(still criminalised where Im from), I would draw the line at stuff thats easier to OD or stuff I wouldnt think people should take daily(smoking or drinking daily is not good but not even close to something like taking MDMA daily)
@hachiohgersbf@PastySmasher0@mushycrouton Im quite progressive compared to my parents or grandparents and when I told them my girlfriend didnt cook for me and I didnt care they were surprised and didnt want to consider her my girlfriend ๐ญ
@hachiohgersbf@PastySmasher0@mushycrouton I grew up in China and alot of my friends are immigrants or children of immigrants, most people from non 1st world western countries tend to be more traditional value wise
@TelvaniMage@yfwyf123@TheDanteMunoz Except the state has more control and power when it needs it, which I think is necessary for such a large country to remain cohesive, unlike America
@TelvaniMage@yfwyf123@TheDanteMunoz I am Chinese and I agree, you have to be careful to not piss off the government but otherwise it feels effectively capitalist
@Wexboy_Value@chamberedlouie@TheDanteMunoz Yup, my bloodline didnt own a car until the 2000s, China was rough in the 90s-2000s too, and the niceties were mostly in select locations where poverty would be in very close proximity, all the growth china experienced were in its most capitalist acting times
@Wexboy_Value@chamberedlouie@TheDanteMunoz Fun fact my great grand father had his property seized by the CCP and was then executed when he got caught going back to the property to retrieve documents
@Wexboy_Value@TheDanteMunoz Im Chinese and I agree with you, the modern Chinese value is literally get an education to make money, its ultra competitive and unforgiving, its like Wall St but a whole nation lmfao
@chamberedlouie@Wexboy_Value@TheDanteMunoz Its still more capitalist than socialist, them owning it doesnt mean its free, it just means only they can abuse it, the general safety standards and quality of infrastructure is far worse in China, if a USA private company built in Chinaโs standards they would be shut down
@TheDanteMunoz@Wexboy_Value Having success in China literally is confined to how โcapableโ you are and that usually refers to getting a good education to get as much MONEY as possible, its ultra competitive and alot dont succeed.
That feels very capitalist to me, Iโd know, I grew up in it
@TheDanteMunoz@Wexboy_Value Iโm Chinese, and I can tell you people in the West live a better quality of life, and it absolutely behaves like a capitalist economy.
Life in china isnt as good as the short pretty videos you see. So many chinese people move to the West because of this, I did.
@JeseiComunista@pinkishlefty Im talking about like 1900s China, not that far back, my grandparents siblings starved to death, great grandpa executed by CCP for owning private property, no one in my bloodline owned a car until the 2000s, yeah, Iโll take Western society to live in, thanks
@m1btib3@MetalGametes@mushycrouton Bruh the 2nd image just appears to be police protecting womenโs safety? Employees raised concerns because they thought a man was in a girls bathroom?
@mushycrouton Your white privilge is showing, most of what you listed are what allowed us to continue as a species and most people in other parts of the world doesnt even have the luxury of having your takes
@PastySmasher0@mushycrouton All these things leads to a society even existing, they are all basic evolutionary traits that allows us to reproduce
Crazy how the only people with these takes are the privileged white people in the West. People in rougher parts of the world cant have these takes lmao
