Interesting points, I could see the claustrophobia really becoming a problem.
What I had in mind was much smaller scale and not totally self sufficient, probably just aiming to grow a significant percentage of what we eat and share housing/land responsibilities and costs. But I’m also not the one with the know-how and there’s just been mumblings about it, not solid serious discussion.
Thanks! Interesting to see people’s perspectives.
I’m curious about the class/settler analysis, since it seemed like people didn’t quite agree on that and I’m not really sure what to think myself.
Also I don’t think I would aim to be totally self-sufficient or such a large scale, don’t know if that makes a difference. But sounds like that may not be economically feasible from one person’s experience.
lmao like actually true though
What kind of political and educational content are you watching on bilibili? Any recommendations?
Wait what does 737max have to do with the Titanic
Defending against accusations of genocide? Yes. Although the phrasing can sound odd because it is largely a fabricated narrative. I think most here would support China’s actions as a deradicalization program against religious extremism, especially compared to the US solution in neighboring Afghanistan and Iraq.
Tankie is really just used as an insult against “communists I don’t like.” It’s not like it has any theoretical depth. It has an etymology related to the definition they gave you but that only has so much influence on its use.
Class war is the ongoing state of things. Like infation and rent hikes. If a revoluton broke out, of course it would be authoritarian. And the resulting state would probably take an extremely cautious siege socialism approach if it wanted to survive, so yes it would probably be authoritarian. But choosing to not be authoritarian is really just willfully ceding power to the previous ruling class who are not going to give up their position peacefully, even after a revolution. Think about the media narrative and war hawk stances against Cuba, the DPRK, the PRC. Now imagine that but applied to a newly founded socialist republic.
Also, here’s a fantastic Weimar Cabaret style production of The Merchant’s song “Supply and Demand”
Hell yes! My Mün landings usually involve some extemporaneous lithobraking maneuvers XD
Not documentaries but Eisenstein’s Battleship Potemkin and Octobre are great and freely available on Youtube.
Lmao I think I’ve driven by that exact one
If you actually do this doublecheck that you’re not moving near militaly bases or military industry, those are sometimes out in the middle of no where
Selling nukes on the blackmarket, notoriously uncontroversial and unambiguously GOOD and COOL
I’m a native English speaker and I have no idea what they’re talking about. I don’t think they realized you were alluding to the EU politician that called Europe a garden and the rest of the world a jungle.
It’s being increased by another $3 trillion /s
Someone said that their mother didn’t have any retirement and they were irritated that their mother was hoping that they would support them… then everyone dogpiled to say that their mother was a lazy piece of shit evil narcissist.
Meanwhile in another comment chain people were dogpiling a “boomer” for telling them that they weren’t “adulting correctly” if they couldn’t put aside a retirement fund.
The irony is almost painful…
At least someone was recommending guillotines as a solution!
Unlikely. But you might drown in a septic tank if it derails while you’re on the toilet.
Holy shit these people are insufferable
Hmmm, there’s some nice mountains near me for turning into a crazed mountain man partisan… good idea
Hey, I’m an infrequent dabbler in Esperanto, and I was curious if you could share what lit & poetry you’ve enjoyed!
