Hey! It’s one of these nerds again! TranscendentalEmpire @lemm.ee, I’m not sure if they had their account removed or not since I can’t tag it but essentially they were doing the same shit as this but started off with a analysis of Russia and Ukraine and deevolved into actual racism and gargling about “world” systems theory to which their interpretation of such was that "Well, whenever country dies there is vacuum and since we have a hegemony if this hegemony dies China will simply become a new hegemony and do the same stuff because systems theory says so.
There is zero understanding or interpretation of historical conditions, nothing more than just “it will do same thing because humans bad” and I don’t even think he was grasping world systems theory very well in the first place. Is this a new lib-meta with loser STEM-nazis using systems theory in lieu of historical materialism in order to actually have a memory longer than an election cycle? Evolution really is a messy process.
Found the quote:
""Or, it just creates more and more war because people keep supporting far right governments.
I don’t think people understand that global system theory is just theory, and a theory entirely dependent on the continuation of capitalism. If you actually believe in a hegemony as it’s written in global systems theory, then it precludes the chance a country like China will ever overthrow it with anything other than another capitalist hegemony."
hmmmm…why is there so much manifested support for certain far-right governments out of nowhere?
@TranscendentalEmpire@lemm.ee I think you just placed the @ at the wrong spot you gotta do it like this @TranscendentalEmpire@lemm.ee
Anyway incredible quote. It’s like arguing with a fundamentalist christian. There’s no reasoning, it’s just “well the theory says so”. And they don’t even understand it themselves.
Like okay why does it say so?
“That’s just how it is.”
Okay why?
“You just don’t understand that’s just how it is.”
Yeah I don’t, why is it like that?
“Because it is. That’s just human nature.”
It isn’t though.
“It is in theory.”
Which one.
“Mine, which is the correct one.”
On what reasoning?
“The correct reasoning.”
I don’t know if they did it like that, but the current doofus did.
I put it like that because it linked to an email instead of an account like normal, not sure what was going on there other than email formatting kicking in. Assumed he was banned.
That’s about correct when pushed on systems theory itself. Otherwise, he proceeded to make racist comments against Russians and then get banned for it.
I think that’s the primal lizard brain of most lemmitors, especially from lemm.ee; it all comes back to racism.
