Named of course for it’s discoverer John triangle

I’m not too sure about the whole tariff thing. A lot of people in his inner circle made a fuck ton of money through tactically placed trades before and after each wave of sanctions.

And again with the Iran war stuff, a lot of people are making a mint off this war. And also it’s Israel that wanted this war and basically all of the people pulling the strings have some loyalty to Israel.

I don’t think so, historically when we see a fascist leader get killed the underlings fight each other for power and fall apart more than they coalesce around a new leader.

My skills were granted to me through the devine providence of the autism gods.

Presumably as some sort of sick joke as I’m basically incapable of talking to anyone I find sexuslly attractive.

At least UIs are standard now, back in my day (and still some today) people would make everything a CLI and then bitch at you when you told them that their very computationally efficient video trimming tool is cool and all, but editing video from the terminal is worse than CBT.

I mean that’s possible, but also Trump is 100% being managed by the federalist society. He can barely stay awake during meetings, no way he’s actually dictating policy.

And that also assumes their was a clear second to take the reins of MAGA that the inner circle would rally behind, power vacuums tend to lead to infighting and without a clear cult leader the low level maga worshipers would likely be in chaos.

What is “normal” in this case? Because reading a book and drinking tea(?) is pretty up there on what I would consider normal

She went on a first date and the thing that stood out the most as a positive is that he was willing to spend money on her?

Fuck that. Youre not hyping up the man, you’re hyping up his wallet (on contributing to the ongoing commodification and transactional nature of relationships)

He’s not a puppet, it’s a real bloke whose just kinda like that.

AI slop

and every single one is currently being rolled back in every capitalist nation on earth.

Just completely factually incorrect.

You actually can’t make the argument that neoliberal capitalism has defeated fascism at a

Sure you can, I wouldn’t agree with it, just like I wouldn’t agree that socialism did, but you can make that argument

Life expectancy increase came as a result of medical research conducted around the world

Yeah that’s kind of my point. The things you mention as successes of “”“socialist”“” countries is just scientific advancement and industrialisation.

You’re assuming this is the first time I’ve come across any information about China. Or he’ll even the first time I’ve seen an argument from pro china Tankie. But it’s not, I consider myself a socialist, I’ve read into the histories of china and Russia and a bit on other socialist countries and used to be quite pro china myself, but the more I read, the more information I got about how china actually operates, as I talked to actual people from China, HK and surrounding countries, and as my values matured I realise I can’t support the Chinese state (and that’s it’s not exactly even socialist) because its so authoritarian, corrupt and generally immoral.

Yes the west is shit in so many ways and capitalism is completely unsustainable, but that doesn’t mean I need to support Chinese “socialism” just because it’s not western capitalism.

And I don’t think a random post from a user that’s posting blatant propaganda is going to completely recontexualise everything I know about China and make all their bullshit suddenly ok. So why waste my team reading it?

And to give a more extreme scenario, if you encountered a Nazi who wrote a massive comment about how Nazi Germany was actually great and democratic and treated people well, would you bother to read it? Are you obliged to learn about it?

You still haven’t actually answered the question. You just keep repeating that he doesn’t have to do it if he doesn’t want to. But he does want to and he does do it, he’ll he probably enjoys it on the whole, but why does that mean the job can’t be draining and stressful?

You’ve made a metric fuck tonne of hateboner posts on this thread.

I’m defending streaming in general as a job because I know it can be stressful and draining.

I don’t give a shit about Hassan himself, but he’s right about streaming being soul sucking.

Why would I willingly waste my time on Tankie nonsense?

Okay I’ll give you the tiniest little bite. Your first link is a fucking substsck article from a blatant propaganda pusher that mostly publishes “the west = bad” blog post

So he is trying to claim that China is actually a shining example of democracy, despite being a 1 party state that openly punishes it’s citizens for critisicing the government, the revolution, key reveloutionary figure or communism in general, because of opinion polls that, in a different blog post, he admits are only as high as they are because of China’s censorship of government criticism.

We have actual empirical standards for what a democracy is. China is basically the poster child for modern authoritarianism and does not fit the description of a democratic state in any reasonable way. No opposition is allowed, the party leadership is the one that picks candidates, not the citizens and even then citizens only get this performative vote at the very lowest level of government.

But that’s all I’m going to give you. I’ve fallen into the trap of trying to argue with Tankies who are not arguing from a position of reason, you’re like Magas or Nazis but just intelligent enough to actually cherry pick data and use the language of political theory to attempted to disguise your lunacy.

Reply if you want, call me a shitlib for being pro free and fair elections if you feel like, but I’m not wasting any more of my time on you.

support systems that have brought about immense increases in life expectancy, worker’s rights, women’s rights, free healthcare, free education, and literally defeated fascism

Cool, you can make literally that exact same argument about capitalist neo libs.

Lmao I’m not wasting my time reading a whole Tankies schizo rant about how awesome China is and how it’s authoritarian 1 party system is actually super cool democracy.

Average .ml behaviour

So why does it being voluntary mean the job can’t be soul sucking. I could quit my job and live off benefits for the rest of my life if I wanted to, so can I not complain about my job?

Nah I think you’re just either arguing for the sake of having an argument or you’re one of those people that have a hate boner for the guy.
