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.
Brace through the hyper-real lacanian void together!

BadEmpanada dropping a truth nuke defending Chomsky in the comments of the video where he shits on him and calls him an agent of the establishment

>>2568593
Bad image, but seen the comments. Bad Empanada has the right take. The attacks on Chomsky's supposed "genocide denial" were always bad faith, and intellectually lazy.

>>2568571
>Sooner or later they will armor and arm the things.
Good.
I hope they discard the human face of robo capitalism and go full terminator earlier rather than later

li_dawei98/"Hunan Rights Advocate" is an american LARPing as chinese. Salin is a palestinian living in Argentina iirc.

Argument starts with li_dawei98 saying arabs should "stop begging" for international solidarity and handle their own problems like China. Salin points out that China had massive help from US and USSR. Li_dawei98 (american) calls Salin (palestinian) a white chauvinist.

>>2568598

Not that anon(s)

>Salin points out that China had massive help from US and USSR.


What are you talking about, the screenshot you sent did not say that dumbfuck. It said that China didn't do shit and the USA and USSR did everything. Which is a frankly retarded statement that doesn't even bear discussing. What the people arguing over in your pics identify as doesn't fucking matter because being a palestinian doesn't suddenly give you the blanket ability to win every arguement with regards to palestine at all times. If you actually believe that China did nothing in WW2 go back to /pol/ where you belong.

Brimstone. Utter brimstone. And all for a guy with Epstein ties. The idea that someone would even bother standing on this hill is embarrassing alone.

>>2568625
You would concede to the Chomsky is a genocide denier argument?

>>2568634
I’m conceding nothing. I simply joined the discussion to make everyone aware of the ridiculousness of standing on a hill for Chomsky of all people.

>>2568644
But that's what the "standing on the hill pf Chomsky" is in relation to. So you denouncing that hill is you conceding to Chomsky being a genocide denier

Ultimate first world liberal third worldist versus Thirld worldist tanline debate.
Bad Empanada debates Black Red Guard on the DSA

Revisionism has linked up.
Thoughts?

>>2568656
Highlights:
45:05 BadEmpanada wants to join the DSA
51:48 Did you just call the dsa worse than the acp?
56:00 Black red guard calls BadEmpanada white and says he isn't dialectical
1:06:34 this pretty much sums up the entire debate. Black Red Guard also starts to seethe here.
1:08:45 Tell me what to do- NO IM NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING

>>2568715
>Black red guard calls BadEmpanada white and says he isn't dialectical

Lmao

Welcome back Second International.

>>2568598
China did have massive help from their allies but also had fought the Japanese to a stalemate well before Pearl Harbour. In fact the inability of the IJA to produce the desired results in China is what gave the Navy the political clout to get the attack on Western Pacific colonies approved.

<BE: What's the DSA's vetting process?
>BRG: Why do you wanna join? hehehehe

>BRG: I'm a maoist

<BE: I believe you're a maoist
>BRG: Ohhh thank god the white man believes Im a maoist

>BRGs insane attempt at doing an Australian accent



God this was embarrassing for BRG man sheesh, he comes of like a real retard in this. Also interesting to note his spazzing out about BE not being american and thus needing to shut up because he doesn't know what it's like, very reminiscent of some arguments I've had with burgers on this website

>>2568734
>>2568725
At some point Black red guard also said something like:
>Are you saying that I'm not doing enough because I'm not in jail with all my other black brothers?
In response to Bad Empanada saying something about how the feds don't have to infiltrate the dsa because they support the existing power structure.
