every president has its own taste for one particular type of blood. biden, with blinken and sullivan, had a taste for ukranian/russian blood. trump for venezuelan/iranian/ansarallah/cuban blood, semi for ukranian/russian blood, obama for iraqi, afghani, syrian, libyan, somalian blood, semi for venezuelan. bush for iraqi, afghani blood. and could go on and on, but the point remains.

>>2887284
So realistically what options does America have at this point? Iran wont open the Strait without major concessions at the very least, Trump cant admit defeat because that goes against everything MAGA stands for, but we're also running out of missiles. It's starting to look like the only choices other than just surrendering are either straight up deploying troops or dropping a nuke

The Renminbi becoming the dominant trading currency would be bad for China. They would be better off working mulitlaterally to create a new currency for global trade.

Just make the Bancor real, we’re all still Keynesians

the idea of global currency is like if someone won lots of tokens at a chuck e. cheese pizza and they got it in their heads that if they turn the entire world into a gigantic planet-sized chuck e. cheese pizza, then they would rule the world.

The revolutionary money of the future will emerge dialectically from within old money, and in the tradition of occupying powers, the new money will stamp its symbols on existing currency, creating a parasitic relationship with the original issuer, which is the state, which also no longer exists. This should be sufficiently well received to then diversify into other financial instruments, mediums, and mechanisms.

Magdi Jacobis is a histrionic, mentally-ill woman. She was apparently a victim of abuse by an ex-husband and she goes around accusing politicians and the PodBros of reminding her of her ex and that they're sending accounts after her.

Нейронка тот же литспик научилась читать, вроде бы. Можно фонетическое через не-латинские алфавиты, но это заебёшься. Какой-нибудь фонетический двусторонний переводчик в арабскую вязь или ханьцзы было бы интересно увидеть.

>>2887397
Say, do you know the definition of a "non-sequitur"?
The question wasn't "why should people support Ukraine", the question was "what did Putin do wrong". Turns out, enabling Israel to do genocide in Gaza through keeping its mechanized brigades fueled and supporting its military complex with billions of dollers over the years is a pretty wrong thing that Putin did!

Вопрос желания, наверное. Нейронка понимает, что здесь что-то зашифровано, но воспринимает текст, как японский, хотя это полнейшая бессмыслица и издевательство над языком (русское предложение, записанное через японский IME с поправкой на японскую фонетику).

В тексте гугл-переводчика стоит понимать разницу между поливановским "дзи" и じ, которое ближе к хепбёрновскому ji.

Если дать ей корректировку на то, что подразумевается русский текст, она выдаёт результат, более близкий к правде, но "kakimu" превращается в "как это" (вместо "каким"), а "mojino" - в "мать". То, что ぃぬぅ это li nu xu она пропарсить попросту не в состоянии, но это из-за особенностей IMEшек. Маленькие い и う печатаются через те согласные латинского алвафита, для которых нет кореллирующих звуков в японском. Это "x" и "l" (ибо る же и т.д.). Следовательно, ぃぬぅ можно напечатать как xi nu xu, так и li nu lu, так и xi nu lu. Комбинаторика, короче.

Ещё она думает, что это смесь японского и русского, а не чисто русский текст. Это забавно.

>>2887444
А, да, оригинальное предложение - "каким образом можно установить Линукс?".

My phone keeps insisting all the posts here are in Kazakh but not in Russian, maybe it’s just bad with the Cyrillic alphabet

>Leninist doctrine holds that a vanguard Party should assume state power and drive the population to economic development, and, by some miracle that is unexplained, to freedom and justice. It is an ideology that naturally appeals greatly to the radical intelligentsia, to whom it affords a justification for their role as state managers. I can’t see any reason — either in logic or history — to take it seriously. Libertarian socialism (including a substantial mainstream of Marxism) dismissed all of this with contempt, quite rightly.

There isn't a super strong link between economic development and suicide once you've got a first world economy. South Korea isn't that much richer than the UK but it's way more suicidal. The US is richer than SK, but less suicidal.

My point is not stupid: 26 south Koreans of every 100,000 kill themselves versus an estimated~10 per 100,000 people for the north, but total yearly deaths are 896/100,000 in the north and 730/100,000 in the south. (Taking the low end estimate for the north and high end for SK) Despite an older population and a higher suicide rate, the south is much lower. Applying special significance to suicide is just cope.

To be ludicrously extreme: the ideal state of an economy is that suicide is the only cause of death because every other cause has been conquered by economic and technological development.

The First International, in which Marx and Engels participated, disagrees with you. Communists must have a workers' party distinct from the parties of the bourgeoisie so that the proletariat can acquire its political supremacy by propagating its ideas to establish the dictatorship of the proletariat, and so that there is no co-optation of the masses to serve the bourgeoisie.

<Against the collective power of the propertied classes the working class cannot act, as a class, except by constituting itself into a political party, distinct from, and opposed to, all old parties formed by the propertied classes.

<This constitution of the working class into a political party is indispensable in order to insure the triumph of the social revolution and its ultimate end – the abolition of classes.

<The combination of forces which the working class has already effected by its economical struggles ought at the same time to serve as a lever for its struggles against the political power of landlords and capitalists.

<The lords of the land and the lords of capital will always use their political privileges for the defense and perpetuation of their economical monopolies and for enslaving labor. To conquer political power has therefore become the great duty of the working classes.
