Zionism is just white supremacy though.
There's no "jewish supremacy" independently of white supremacy, because only israely and western jews benefit from jewish supremacy, a community of jews in iran doesn't benefit from "jewish supremacy"

Irpnically be himself is being western-centric by conceiving of jews only as western + israeli

>>2788530
A Jew from Iran, Ethiopia or India can go to Israel and get citizenship alongside a free Palestinian house. A white boi can't unless he converts therefore Israel is Jewish supremacist and not white supremacist.

Jewish supremacy and white supremacy are related, given that Zionism has its origins i Europeanized Jews who see themselves as superior to Jews from other regions, however, it can’t be reduced to white supremacy because Zionist Jews see themselves as superior to goyim whites.

>>2788543

Doesnt the same go for white supremacists from every country though, each being nationalist on top of white supremacy.

>>2788551
yes, its not to say brown jewish zionists arent also tolerated within the political sphere, but they do make that distinction clear (Ashkenazi Jews) mainly in military exemption.

pic related

>>2788549
The debate is pointless because it presupposes it has to be one or the other exclusively. It’s both. Just like Aryanism holds whites to be superior to non-whites but then also declares aryans to be superior to non-aryan whites. Zionist Jews think the same way just with Western fair skinned Jews at the top.

>>2788551
Doesn’t disprove the existence of an in-group hierarchy.

>>2788554
Don’t know about that. There are many forms of white supremacy and the original Nazism also has been reduced to a pan-Europeanist/pan-Western version, ironically.

>>2788557
>>2788555
it's an in-group hierarchy within judaism itself with slavs at the top but clearly just being white isn't enough to get into the club, israeli society still ranks the lowliest Ethiopian jew above the highest foreign gentile

People like BE who make a big distinction between white supremacy and jewish supremacy are telling on themselves that they don't actually understand these things as systems but as expressions of an ethnic essence. It's the form/content distinction again. Supremacy is the form and the race is the content. But the thing is like any sociopolitical system these things arise from history, and zionism is white supremacist in character, in that it evolved from the already existing white supremacist colonialism. It's an outgrowth of European culture not Jewish culture.

Yes, there are Mizrahim Israelis etc, but they are included in a colonial project that was founded by Ashkenazim who had little material ties left to Israel or Judaism. The inclusion of other Jews into Israel's colonizer class was a contingency allowed for by the (white) Ashkenazim as a practical matter to help them win a numbers game against the indigenous populations. It's modeled after the way white colonies started including Irish and Italian people in order to strengthen the "white" bloc.

As to the matter of who counts as white/jewish, this is always ultimately going to be arbitrary. Technically, anybody from the SWANA region is considered a white person per US law due to some funny history and "what color was Jesus" arguments. Meanwhile zionists are trying to gatekeep Jewish identity to exclude anti-zionist Jews. The "what about brown Jews" argument ultimately comes from the same race-essentialist assumptions that denies the socially contingent basis of all these categories.

>>2788634
Be is not a marxist and that's where all his errors come from
He's the most progressive a liberal can be, which still has him buying into appearances of social phenomena without historical materialism to analyze their concrete function.
So he's something like a french materialist, which is about as progressive liberalism got until marx broke with the young hegelians

This explains his "white middle class men become trans to leverage victim status" take. He thinks transness is a "thing" like judaism is a "thing" etc.

Less than I expected tbh, i thought it'd be close to 10%

Do these people realize that "data centers" aren't just for chat gpt and are, like, the entire internet + the substrate of all modern infrastructure?

>>2788634
israel wants to maintain its jewish supremacy in a western-oriented way but I don't consider modern Western character or attitude or feeling to be strictly white anymore, the spanish or portuguese or japanese contribute just as much to this 'culture' as whities do, skin color has never mattered less which is why you see brown tradcath nazi larpers and white gonzaloids everywhere now

>>2788657
Half of that is people watching social media slop on their phones and a lot of the future datacenters in the US are geared toward AI with project stargate because it's the latest grift. ameriland is in terminal stage capitalism, they'll get degrowth when the bubble pops

>>2788669
The label might have outgrown the phenomenon and maybe it's better to say "western supremacy", here BE again flounders by calling out " american supremacy" in order to prop up "jewish supremacy" as its own distinct thing

File: 1776782792598.png (158.71 KB, 606x911, ClipboardImage.png)

>>2788657
Let me get this straight: you actually had no clue how much power was spent on running data centers, yet feel qualified to be smug and 'dunk' on 'these people' because you think the explosion in demand for 'compute' and thus for electrical energy is driven not primarily by 'chatgpt' but by 'like the entire internet + the substrate of all modern infrastructure'?

>>2788675
Yes, the problem isn't "data centers" but how infrastructure is allocated, it needs to be seized by the indigenous whose land it was built on and repurposed for something other than netflix an drone striking children, not destroyed.

"Degrowth" centers the wrong thing.


>>2788679
those "projections" are based on speculative investments, none of that is even in in the initial stage of being built and won't be built before the bubble pops

Also electricity consumption != total eergy
US consumes 4,244 tWh in 2026, your projection shows 4% electricity consumption set to "more than double", but there are no projections for total energy cpnsumption by 2030

So you're just fearmongering with line goes up

>>2788679
How bad is AI actually for the environment? Is it only training new models or is asking ChatGPT a question really that more energy intensive than a google search?

>>2005272
I recommend adding Critique of Everyday Life by Henri Lefebvre to the core theory. The "marvelous" is very similar to the "spectacle."

>>2788706
Mostly training, generating images and videos, and solving complex problems (e.g. having Claude refactor your codebase with thousands of lines of code). Using it as equivalent to a search engine, especially with the less computer intensive models like Deepseek, is pretty cheap. In fact, some people run Deepseek locally.

There is also a lot of space to optimize LLMs (as in reduce the computational resources they require) but it is more profitable to build more datacenters atm so the tech overlords don't even bother, unfortunately.

>>2788634
>It's an outgrowth of European culture not Jewish culture.
you are basically erasing all of jewish history if you say Israel, the jewish state, is just an outgrowth of european culture and society, jewish society became a part of european society but it was born in the middle east, and zionism grew out of it as a response to the liberalization it started happening in jewish society after the end of the monarchies in europe
>>2788676
>in order to prop up "jewish supremacy" as its own distinct thing
but it is tho, read Israel Shahak

>>2788706
Mostly training.
Prompting consumes barely any energy at all, you'd make more impact by deleting netflix
To the point where deepseek gives it away for free.

Also, youtube runs hundreds of similar "prompts" to generate the "for you" page.

Llm assistants aren't profitable because they're not meant to be, they're civil applications of MIC infrastructure (bombing children). Just like the internet itself

I think people are sort of referencing what it was like in the 1960s/70s when Israel had a bunch of freshly arrived Mizrahim and Ashkenazi Labor Zionists were in power but now it's more like liberal soyboy "white" Jews vs. "brown" chud Jews.

>The barriers to education have pushed many working class Mizrahim to look for employment opportunities with the Israeli army and other security forces. Israeli sociologist Prof. Orna Sasson-Levy explains how military service, even in low ranks, can provide economic opportunities for Mizrahim:


>“As students in vocational schools, most of them without a high school diploma, most of the soldiers in these positions do not see themselves continuing on to higher education, with their physical labor power and the profession they acquired in high school may be the main resources they have to secure themselves economically, which is why it is important for them to develop the resources available to them from an early age […] Soldiers who continue to serve for a number of years on a professional basis also explain this through mainly economic considerations. They examine the military by standards usually reserved for a workplace such as the opportunity to receive professional training, social benefits, medical care, dental care, and more.”


>Prof. Yagil Levy shows how the army could potentially help bolster one’s socio-economic class. His book, Israel’s Materialist Militarism, analyzes how the army has helped validate the social demands of Mizrahim through service in the army. While secular Ashkenazim began leading a process of de-militarization and looked for other socio-economic prospects, Levy found that groups on Israel’s periphery began using the army to fulfill their social and economic interests.


>In addition to these studies, the high proportion of Mizrahim working in the police or the Israel Prison Service can be explained by the fact that in the absence of gainful employment — which requires higher education — working for the security forces offers stable economic conditions. This kind of work can serve as a refuge from a crisis of education and employment, just as welfare settlements were used by many as a refuge from a housing crisis inside Israel. In both housing and education/employment, the processes can be explained in light of class differences between Ashkenazim and Mizrahim. Thus, realms that are generally seen as right wing, nationalist, or hawkish vis-à-vis Palestinians — settlements beyond the Green Line or Israel’s security forces — are treated as a socio-economic anchor by Mizrahi communities in Israeli society.

>you are basically erasing all of jewish history if you say Israel, the jewish state, is just an outgrowth of european culture and society, jewish society became a part of european society but it was born in the middle east, and zionism grew out of it as a response to the liberalization it started happening in jewish society after the end of the monarchies in europe
This is inaccurate, the "Jewish society" you're referring to is specifically that of European Jews, who in spite of their marginalization were mostly assimilated into European culture by the time Israel was founded. That's certainly the case for the specific Jews who founded Israel. Zionism was a recent invention in Jewish history and tradition and was broadly unpopular for a long time, even for a while after Israel existed. The idea of re-establishing a Jewish state was broadly seen as incompatible with Jewish theology. The mythic/religious history of the Kingdom of Israel is also not reflective of reality, as all evidence points to Israelites being a subset of the Canaanite people native to the region. There's a common misconception that Israelis are just claiming the Holy Land again, like they supposedly did in Old Testament times, but that entire narrative is fictitious in the first place.

>>2788736
>jewish culture is not a monolithic thing with a "single essence", (that is already a zionist framing of judaism and jewish society)
Yes, which is why it doesn't make sense to tie zionism to Judaism the way people like BE are doing. Zionism asserts a particular interpretation of Judaism which has been filtered through centuries of colonialist ideology that came from Europe

>>2788748
So between 2020 and 2024 it went from 2.7% to 3.6%
1% increase! Sound the alarms! Start shitting in buckets, destroy your rice cooker, bombard the headquarters

>>2788757
this is missing class analysis. israel is built to attract and assimilate jews from all over the world, making it a multi-national (but exclusively jewish) state, with the minority bourgeois jewish class building and enforcing it along exclusively Western jewish, but not necessarily white, lines. the minority bourgeois class in israel can never be majority non-jewish, (it could theoretically be non-white), so long as zionism reigns, so to destroy zionism you would simply need to make israel a bi-national state between jews and non-jews (the palestinians), not between whites and non-whites

Richard Spencer makes important comments here, that antisemitism has become a sort of dark universality of contemporary politics, between the left and the right. I did notice a while ago that Ana Kasparian has become completely deranged since the genesis of this conflict in Palestine. Spencer's idea of the marginally radical normie is also present, as a type of zeitgeist (the normie actually being much more "based" than the "dissident").

My own sister, who is expressly anti-racist, has also become a raging antisemite, and I am the one who has to dissect the difference between Zionists and Jews (since MOST Zionists are Christian, NOT Jewish!)

there are exactly two groups of people on the face of the planet that have an interest in conflating the so-called jewish question with hostility to the state of israel in the way spencer does here, i.e. those who answer that jewish question with either zionism or eliminationism. it's no coincidence that posts here are constantly trying to frame it in those terms, only typically eliminationism is euphemized as 'anti-semitism', and it's also quite suspect that you implicitly cede this framing yourself by praising what spencer has to say here as "important".

>>2789958
It is important; its revelatory.
And there is much implicit antisemitism in discussions of Israel.
The exceptionality of Israel on the left and right (e.g. its either the greatest thing ever, or the worst thing ever), is characteristic of its Jewishness. I take the position of Khomeini (1979), that if Israel is Satanic, it is the "Little Satan" while the US is the "Great Satan".

Its actually healthy and leads to eventual acceptance because its actually honest, its just that I can't bring myself to care about some author persona who has nothing important to say on politics. Why do people care if some fiction author says the N word or supports trans rights?

ZOG is just burgers offloading their burger guilt onto Israel since America is the greater, older, bigger israel.

>>2790130
>Agree. Doesn't the Torah say that Baal (or whatever demonic old world god there was) was a false god?
Ba'al was literally just alt-yahweh, and the canaanites who would retcon themselves to be Jews later on (since Yahweh was just a canaanite God from the canaanite pantheon) literally gave their kids ba'al-derived names as late as the house of fucking David being the rulers of the kingdom of Israel. depending on whether you're reading Chronicles or Samuel, in one of those books David's son even has a ba'al derived name. Ba'al was even a storm/war God who fought with Leviathan just like Yahweh. Yahweh evolved from a local boring war/storm God into the abstract God of global Monotheism. But really Actually Existing Monotheism barely exists since you still have demigods in the form of angels/demons, a "trinity" that's just three Gods in a trenchcoat, and "saints" and "prophets" which serve the roles that demigods used to serve in henotheistic and polytheistic religions.

>>2790221
Yes. America has been engaging in Imperialism even before Israel existed. Take for example, the founding of Liberia and the Philippines.

>>2789945
Im not to worried about, given the circumstances it's surprising it's not worst. Israel is essentially protocol of zion the state and the longer it imposes itself on american politicas and the ruling class insist on it. The worsr it'll get. Richard may be right in this case but I think it'll just be a flare up of antisemitism and then everything will go back to a baseline once israel has been abandoned by the U.S and dismantled by its neighbors and internal contradictions. America will never be nazi levels of antisemitic but it'll never again but weirdly as philo-semetic again as it was even 5 years ago.

Also, as reminder Richard Spencer told David pakmen that he wanted what israel was doing but for america. From my understanding he's a global emoji neo-lib now because that's what wealthier, more elitist nazis have found a home in, but trump fucked up atlantasim so can't wait to see his next gift. He'll prolly be a pod John by 2028

>>2790225
>Take for example, the founding of Liberia and the Philippines

Liberia is extra fucked because it's like an israel for black Americans in west Africa. Which now that I bring that up, we might want to watch that spot as America's next imperial proxy outpost. It'll be even woker imperialism than israel this time. In less something is done in the year 2048 president AOC with vice president don Jr will be asking Americans to cut down on water rations because Liberia is in a 6 front war trying to create greater Liberia. This will incidently create a unified axis of resistance and africa will have finally booted out American and Europeans.

>>2790236

He meant that they can't allow another February to happen because this time there is no Lenin to pick up the pieces afterwards. A collapse of a mismanaged bourgeois state with no real movement to replace it. Before that he spent most of the speech glazing Lenin and the Soviets.
Idk why people feel the need to misinterpret Zyuganov to cast him in a bad light when he is already pretty lame.

>which could have been avoided if the Tsar and the fledgling Russian bourgeoisie wasn't so entirely reactionary. I think that's a fair thing to say.
It's a ridiculously liberal and un-Marxist thing to say. A reactionary class like the Tsarist aristocracy is reactionary by virtue of its position in the relations of production and the inherent interests attached to that, not because they make a conscious choice to be so. Likewise they cannot make a conscious choice to be less so, and this of course applies to the current Russian government as well.
>If you seriously think the CPRF is the same as Zioran Mamdani you are out of your mind.
They're both contained opposition socdems which serve to sheepdog workers into the loyal bourgeois "labour" opposition. There are differences of course, but these stem from differences in the respective capitalist classes they orbit (an imperialist vs a national bourgeoisie). Their relationships to those respective ruling classes however is identical.

>>2790647
>A reactionary class like the Tsarist aristocracy is reactionary by virtue of its position in the relations of production and the inherent interests attached to that, not because they make a conscious choice to be so.
Vulgar Marxism. Pretty much every European monarch was making bourgeois-liberal reforms from the Napoleonic age onward, because the situation of absolutism was unteneable. Only the Romanovs staunchly refused to do so.

>>2790661

Why is it that America is the only country in the world where a child that looks like picrel can be classified as "Black"?

It makes no sense. Biracials and multiracials who are mixed with Black are not Black unless they're distinctly perceived as Black. Having a Black parent or grandparent doesn't make you "Black" if you're the same colour as a banana smoothie. The One-Drop Rule is, frankly, archaic and only applies in an American context. If the child in picrel were to go to, say, Africa, the Caribbean, or anywhere in LatAm (yes, even Argentina) he would not be perceived as Black but would be very high on the racial hierarchy in those regions. In fact, in many countries where Black folks are the majority, you have a caste of people who are mixed-Black who deliberately choose to segregate themselves from Black people by living in their own separate gated communities and whatnot; Jamaica is like this and so are African countries like South Africa and Angola.

With that said, why are Americans still so hellbent on classifying anyone with 25% Black ancestry as "Black" even when they don't look Black at all?

Hence, that's the reason. Being a WASP-settler ruled bourgeois-imperialist dictatorship, the most slight differentiation is enough to otherize and discriminate.

Yeah. Like the Dominican Republic. I know a guy from there (super nice guy). They're like 75% mulatto. He's got the cafe con leche complexion. I think it's starting to become fuzzier in the U.S. though because there are more interracial couplings and immigration.

>With that said, why are Americans still so hellbent on classifying anyone with 25% Black ancestry as "Black" even when they don't look Black at all?

Well historically it was a way to enforce social class stratification (as much as some people will insist that "race" politics and "class" politics don't mix, it's not actually exceptional historically for social classes to be distinguished by a more or less national or racial character so they get tangled up together). I looked at this influencer though and what I think is probably more productive is to think about how "identity" gatekeeping is tying in with the capitalist attention economy. This person is building a brand and one way to do that is to distinguish the brand in a competitive market. That's done with a hypersaturated look but it's also commodifying one's identity with various products. She has a weird problem with "interracial propaganda." Her being a globetrotter is also another interesting thing to think about, there's a bundle of contradictions here.

Like what's going on is that capitalism is mixing people up and destabilizing all "fixed / fast-frozen relations" and it's radically cosmopolitan in that way, but at the same time it reinforces boundaries between people. There are people who might even express anti-capitalist views (or anti-oppression) but they're really reflecting capitalist logic in a distorted way. I generally think cultural nationalism and "muh identity" stuff is regressive BTW.

Walmarts in Texas started decorating their stores with these bizarre Texas displays. It's a massive corporation. A lot of states in the U.S. that became states in the late 19th century and adopted similar flags (a reflection of how mass production reflected itself superstructurally at the time?) are changing their flags to make them more visually distinct, and the committees that encourage this explicitly say that it's to promote their states' economies by creating a "brand" which can be incorporated into products. Interesting thing that it's happening when there's a whole trend towards reshoring. "Buy local." So a change in the economic base is showing up in the superstructure.

Broadly correct but too idealist. He doesn't understand the USSR becoming a superpower is broadly the result of the succesful application of (non-revisionist) Marxism-Leninism.

That there is later revisionist degeneration due to unresolved & growing class contradictions in the USSR itself is cannot be an indictment of Marxism-Leninism in general. At most we can point to undertheorized, underexamined, etc. new issues as well as unresolved issues going back all the way to the periods of the second & even first international.

ML(M?) has yet to be properly surpassed, and attempts in the past have generally failed hard because they often attacked corrected theses and went down revisionist, reformist & outright liberal paths.

the problem with your argument here is that you've thrown 3 separate vaguely defined positions together and are acting like this is a response to:
  • anarchists (which ones)
  • trotskyists (people who agree with MLism on most things except for policy differences)
  • ultras (which ones)

>the fall of Maduro and Assad

In America there was an ethnogenesis of a peoples who were a mix of Africans, Europeans, and Native Americans. A majority of these people were enslaved, about 10% or so were free and a small percentage were members of the bourgeoisie. The success of the abolitionist movement by the end of the civil war created a liberated ethnos that faced a harsh and violent reaction, causing this group to lean on their ethnos (as Lenin talks about with other ideological apparatuses like religion as well.)
>>2791282
The black is black movement eliminated the focus on the skin color (or at least tried) and emphasized the ethnicity and culture. It was not a liberal movement, it was an ethno-centric movement.

There were "white slaves" in America in olden times too.
>The abolitionist Parker Pillsbury wrote in 1853 to his colleague William Lloyd Garrison: "A white skin is no security whatsoever. I should no more dare to send white children out to play alone, especially at night … than I should dare send them into a forest of tigers and hyenas." (published in The National Anti-Slavery Standard, November 12, 1853)

Youtube seem to start pushing drama contend really heavily couple months ago. I remember my recommendations suddenly becoming filled with these kinds of videos despite never showing interest to anything related.

Drama youtubers are the biggest cancer on the internet, complete social parasites that make a living off of sensationalizing tragedies. I wouldn't be surprised if they deliberately fabricate problems just to manufacture content.

They always hve and most of the time they are at the center of the drama they create. Idubbbz, leafy and all other "commentary community" parasites are like this. It's all just reality TV for socially inept children.

I wonder what the localization drama for some weeb rhythm game is going to do culturally. Is it going to hike up trump's approval rating by a few points among zoomer men? It's a pretty big drama.

>>2792476
Some Japanese games (Persona 5 and Bravely Second come to mind) have like a lot of references to Japanese memes and image board culture in their original language. If I was in charge of the localization I'd genuinely have no idea how to proceed. Doing a literal translation would lose a lot of the nuance but putting in western memes will inevitably make the game feel dated and cringe.

>>2792488
The solution is to not play these shitty games

>>2792488
have some respect for the audiences intelligence. the solution is translators notes. people are capable of bridging the cultural gap with enough information and context. humans have an intuition for these things. i genuinely think that the development and capacity for empathy of many people (mainly USA citizens tbh) is stunted by shielding them from cultural differences

>>2792702
whoever this is, he loves to hear himself speak, and that is insufferable. regardless, I'm not sure his premise holds any water. maybe he's right, I don't know. I just think that if the material conditions get bad enough, that will itself be the impetus for revolution, regardless of the presence of a so-called "counter elite". not to say that any given revolution will have no need for talent; far from it. it's just that one would hope that ideological solidarity would frame such resistance as an egalitarian enterprise without hierarchical delineations, especially in the wake of victory. some might say that's unrealistic but one can only hope for enlightenment among the people.
>chaz
I don't think it's fair to characterize chaz as a genuine attempt at revolution or even the trailblazing of a new alternative society, but yes, it was woefully incompetent and unprepared for any substantial longevity.
>tech won't be an impedance to revolution because nazis failed to assault moscow even cutting edge war machines
if da gubmint manages to produce an army of AI piloted robot soldiers that act as an occupying force, who work in tandem with AI piloted drones that can precision-strike from 3000 ft in the air, then I think any sort of human-led revolution will be a non-starter. in other words, the level of technological advancement in this hypothetical would vastly supersede the provided example of the nazi war tech that was used during whatever historical skirmish you referenced. of course, I don't think this will happen; this is the stuff of science fiction, but I'm just saying that, given sufficient technology, human opposition can be entirely eradicated.

This style of content is not really made for the audience. It's low tier algo-slop. It is made primarily to be watched by the algorithm and fool it into thinking your channel/video is part of a highly contentious (and so profitable) Youtuber Drama that may be happening somewhere else. Think of it like how talking to an LLM, saying the same things in different ways can lead to wildly different responses. By the mere presence of some keyword that has a lot of "pull" in it's training or ambiguous associations. Well so are these faces, thumbnails and scripts tailored for that effect.

It's like being an orbiter. But cutting the middleman of the orbitee acknowledging and giving you exposure, by attacking the algorithm directly for that association, instead. Because that's where the money comes from, being promoted by the algorithm as a profitable content creator, the human element is just one way to get there.

>the solution is translators notes
The translators don't fiddle with the game code, so what they receive to work with must be flexible enough for this. I remember reading that the translators of Metal Gear Solid 2 had to deal with very rigidly fixed text boxes. A guy involved in translating Zelda Wind Waker said on a podcast they had to put something awkward and ambiguous into a text box that popped up in different situations ("let go") because Japanese got the same term for these different situations so the programmers had hardcoded these situations as triggering the same text. Maybe things have gotten better since then, but I don't know.


>>2792499
Translator's notes are very unprofessional. There's a reason you only see them in fansubs and scanlations.
