Hmm seems like idealist/utopian reasoning to me. What would have had to change further back? How far back? Do we go back all the way to 1917 or what? What do you think the chinese communists should have done differently to be closer to construction of socialism then they are now?

>Pete Hegseth: "We are asking American taxpayers to fund the world's greatest military, we're asking mothers and fathers across America to trust us with their most precious resource, their sons and daughters, and we will honor their trust and their sacrifice."

Ok, here's the deal plebs: We get your money and your kids. You get to be poorer and watch your kids die before you do.
Sound good?

Let's see how long that patriotism lasts when bodybags start coming back from vuvulza

>>2586989
I'm sure people said that during the Afghan war.

>>2586991
The issue with comparisons to old wars is that America isn't a unipolar hegemon anymore. A war with vevulza wouldn't be the rape that Afghanistan was, if they want victory it means total war, maybe not at the very start, but that's the direction it'll take when america starts losing

A thread focused on discussing the parasocial relationships cultivated by the Almighty Algorithm to generate profit off of our atomization and society's commodification of petty internet drama.

Why cant gommunists into nice propaganda stuff like this? Why all the shit gommunists produce is words words words with no aesthetic?

For years I see the rightoid memes being more spot on despite their bullshit beliefs. In fact, the are even stealing all the positions of communists and the left on serious matter. And what do we produce? Material for the gutenberg era, or at best for the industrial revolution, 2 centuries ago

Because thats fucking lame. Materialism doesn't need aesthetic. Materialism only needs itself.



 

Always thought he was underrated. And this quote is great whether he said it or not.

People give him shit because it all collapsed after he died, but then they'll go and act like the USSR was so much better when it collapsed around the very same time. Tito objectively did things wrong, but the USSR did too. Both got ratfucked by the US in the end.

He's arguably the coolest socialist. Not at all the "best" but very fuckin cool.

He did have aura. Him and Stalin should have just made up and been friends. What was their beef even about?

Okay then. Have fun with that.

neema parvini made a video on contrapoints, showing the failure of the left to counter the discursive fascism of "debate", which undermines liberal norms and values by "vice signalling". the dynamic here is what steven pinker refers to as "common knowledge", or what i would say is the implicit or connotative semiotics which bind society together (such as custom, manners, etc.) contrapoints is obviously correct that beginning to engage in "debate" with fascists leads to a sinister dialectic, acting as a rhetorical prison for the victim. parvini plays the fool in his commentary, stating that merely appealing to authority is "not an argument", which may be true in itself, but its also the right of people on the left to disengage from the right-wing format. zizek has discussed this before, that one cannot accept the terms of debate for a fascist, since it confuses form and content. as zizek has said elsewhere (such as in his recent pussy riot interview, he says that "truth" is not a matter of fact. truth is not objective, but subjective). to give charity to this philosophically is to see how german idealism posits subjectivity as the form by which objects appear - thus, it is the subject which creates the content. so then, it isnt wise to debate fascists in any case. no argument is necessary.

I'm not watching that

have fun with what?
its a canonical aspect of the british left to deregulate medicine and cosmetics to allow for personal freedom. adam curtis included the example of a british transsexual who traveled to thailand to get a procedure in one of his documentaries. there was a recent scandal about children with gender incongruity being experimented on by medical services in this country, with organisations like mermaids being fundraised by various aspects of the left, undercutting NHS ethics.

none of this is entirely surprising when we remember the opium wars, of course.



 

Behold, the most useless communist party. What do these guys even do?
What the hell is going on over there in Nepal? This can extend to Sri Lanka also.

>muh ai use chinese internally
ai use its own internal representation that is not dependent on language, hence why it can be trained on all internet and be used for translation


>>2586941
Truke(?)
I mean LLMs use tokens which are extracted from human language. I don't think that any research has been done on the topic.
