Yeah, I appreciate the occasional dunk, but I’m basically only going to use the news mega anymore. Big fat unforced L from the admins/mods

Tossing around big numbers to estimate things like this is so fun, thanks for the write up!

It’s definitely possible lmao. Over the last 20ish years, my mom went from reluctantly voting for her first democrat to now sending me openly communist media and praising China.

The example that helped things start to click for me was the relationship between poverty and charity. At first glance they feel like opposites, poverty is a lack in essential needs, charity is an concentration of those essentials, distributed to those without.

But once you think about it some more, the only reason there is poverty is because some people have hoarded enough resources that they can dole them out as charity. Charity can only exist if poverty does, and poverty can only exist if the conditions for charity exist. Each contains the seed of the other within it, and they push and pull on each other. The more poverty there is, the more need for charity there is. The more charity exists, the more poverty that there must be. This is a dialectical relationship.

They’re sick as hell

Yo hit me up once you start talking Hilbert and Sobolev spaces. That’s when the real hits

I remember a very long time ago reading this guy’s blog where he detailed his experiments with polyphasic sleeping schedules. Dude claimed he slept only a couple hours a day, in 20-30 minute increments every 4 hours or something. At the time I just thought it sounded wild and like a kind of cool idea.
Now I just remember how he said it gave him more time to work, which makes me sad.

Lol seeing CPUSA members on Twitter retweeting Kamala and the fucking Lincoln Project for Christ’s sake. They’re never beating the allegations.
Also seeing them dismiss this entire thing because the liquidated chapter had no black members. Which is a fair criticism, but is hilarious that they avoid all the other valid points. I’ve seen this a lot from CPUSA people on Twitter when there’s any criticism of the party. It’s always the form of the critique that makes the substance not worth addressing. Doesn’t really instill confidence in your party

Proof by ponder

Here to offer my logic and analysis skills to the betterment of the people and the party

That’s actually fascinating! Cool to know

“circle quadrature” is the most stuffy, full-of-yourself way to say “square the circle” you could possible think of, and I’m a mathematician

Oliver Stone’s series “Untold History of the United States” really helped to open my eyes to the depravity of the US when I was first learning about socialist politics. It gets a little socdem at parts, but for the most part is just a really solid accounting of the US’s crimes in the 20th century. You should be able to find it streaming online, but pm me if you can’t.
“My Brothers and Sisters in the North” is a good look at life in the DPRK, and not just in Pyongyang. This one’s on youtube.
The Act of Killing is a very intense look into the perpetrators of the genocide in Indonesia in the 60s. I haven’t watched the follow-up “The Look of Silence”, but I’ve heard it’s good as well. I think these are on netflix, but pm me if you want.

That shit slapped, my family had free internet, and my own was finally a manageable price. But now it’s back up to over $70 a month

This is sick as hell. Some of the best shows I’ve been to have been in parking lots

Lol the university I’m at blocks all .ru websites, rt.com, and lemmygrad. Oh and all Chinese social media apps. What a bastion of free speech and inquiry

I’m especially ignorant on cancer medicine, but I do know that Cuba has developed a vaccine that is supposed to prevent a type of lung cancer. My guess would be a similar sort of result here

The world is bigger than you can even imagine. Please go read some books; start here.

Man, I want to love Korra so much, because I liked ATLA a lot as a kid. The villain in the first season was such a badass. Same with season 3. But the writers really just fucking libbed out
