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!

British political class were pretending that the established big name parties were safe from falling apart like, right up until this year when it was unavoidable. Give Japan a little bit.

Really is the Britain of the East though. I hate it.

What the fuck does being "dissident right" even mean in 2025? Having the same banal takes Bill O'Reilly did 20 years ago, but this time you get to throw in rhetoric about how you're a "subverter" if you disavow child rape???

It's all so tiresome! Death to America!

>>2561823
arent you mexican? if living next to amerikkkans didnt already do that to you is because you lowkey want to be annexed to get easier access to their treats tbh

Has there ever been a good argument against killing gamers, butchering them, and turning their skins into neat face masks and costumes?

Why does /isg/ jerk off to this guy so much? He’s a reactionary who hates Chinese.

>>2561493
well earned tbh. stiff competition from the shapiros, bibi, israelis, that weird sex toy rabbi, jeffstein, seinfeld (1738), polanski, woody allen, weinstein and just too many people to list here. well done to the gay bug.

>>2561910
you wouldn't get it, he's chill, and you suck.

>>2561910
he thinks China > the US and thats all that matters

>>2561910
He calls out the psycho in the video who wants to go to war with Chynah what are you talking about

>>2561910
>Why does /isg/ jerk off to this guy so much
Because they're also reactionaries that hate Chinese

>>2561927
weak psyop

>>2561910
Do not bring up BE's position on Xinjiang and Russia's invasion of Ukraine on leftypol. It always upsets ziggas.

>>2561938
>don't bring his position on xinjiang
yea, it proves how much he cucks out to the west when the topic is heated for a "third worldist JDPON" retard.

>>2561910
He's funny and unhinged

>>2561938
cope
he fell for the xinjiang hoax, you don't come back from that L

>>2561942
Most westoids fall for way worse psyops, BE is ok, better than 90% of /USApol/ at least.

>>2561946
not that based when it matters, he breaks whatever the heat gets truly hot to defend whatever position CNN is saying but with "nuance" and "context" that ends up validating that shit.
that and being a redditor both obsessed with owning people, policing behaviour to say how moraly superior and bigger leftist he is.
it's no wonder he attracts some folk here and there, this type of retard is very common in politics, and much more overly online leftist ones.

>>2561950
>not that based when it matters,
do most people even remember the xinjiang shit? I dont think it was that important

>>2561951
it was a massive 24/7 disinfomation campaing spanning every media possible to brand china genocidal while trying to do with xinjiang what they did with syria, they even toke the al-qaeda branch from there out of the terrorist list, it's not a nothing burger and it only faded away because of the open genocide by israel to show contrast and china's openess to the region.
and many a "leftists", such as be, were propagandists of this shit for free while shitting on people that denied the hoax for a multitude of reasons, from "tankie" by the Agent Kochinskiiggers to "lacking nuance" from BE and his limp wristed slice of the net.

>>2561956
hmm, I think you are right.
He owes Xi an apology (many such cases).

s4a said he will work in debunking socialism with chinese characteristics as revisionistslop
dengbros, did we get too cocky?

What are some comedians that are actually funny except mullen and stav

What are the subreddit equivalents of 4chan boards? For example, /mu/ is obviously /r/indieheads.

>>2561965
You're clearly the equivalent of a uyghurfaggot for asking.

If retarded means I get to bash your fucking skull in with a rock then I want to be maximally retarded.

Its my backward oriental mind that cannot possibly understand the enlightened progressive thought and/or way of life that is your sickness and filth.

This reads like an AI wrote it, no coherency.

>>2561979
it's funny how much leftypol likes michael hudson while shitting on bernie when hudson was a longtime bernie advisor

>>2561988
no he wasn't

>>2561809
I chuckled

>>2562022
>Give West Oakland to China
WTF is yarvin smoking lol

>>2561959
He will have to cope with marx and engels talking about more productive systems own lesser productive ones, their repetition of the need for development and how impossible to create socialism from the straight up go.
China may be revisionist but not as much as libsoc's believe.

>>2562022
I'm mainly concerned about what's causing the level of brain damage required for people to think this guy is interesting.
