I was curious to see where my debate with the individual would end up. It was a load of nonsense but I wanted to see which arguments he’d use next. Don’t oppose the band, but I do regret the lack of the entertainment I was to have to see them defend the undefensible
That as the one that tipped me over the edge to tankie town
Did the brand actually do that?
I just assume that anything owned by a tech corporation is actively spying on me with anything they got. And I think it is reasonable to assume so, specially when they have weird stuff in the EULA(as I believe discord has). So yeah twitter reddit discord, android, windows what have you, are probably gathering as much data as they can and selling it for as much as they can get.
Gomer was a victim of the intense mind crushing subjugation that the drill sergeant enforced. Wreaking his self esteem, crushing him with guilt and getting him hated and hostilized his fellow recruits. He just snapped, he didn’t show any sign of resisting or trying to resist. Just a difficulty of performing his duties. Whether he would like to or not is uncertain, but he didn’t show that he wanted to change anything, my reading is that he jsut wanted to get by, and he did not got his wish. He got broken and snapped, and it is not clear his intention while on the bathroom, he might have opened fire into his fellow recruits, or anything else, he loaded a whole lot of bullets. He just snapped, so I don’t think it was meant as a heroic act, for as heroic it might seem as consequence to the drill sergeant’s action, he was someone driven beyond his limit, in a desperate action.
I’m not really a social media person anymore I was a Facebook user up to 2015 or something and now I’m just YouTube user and lemmy since I’ve found it like something like an year ago, and my journey through communism is a recent one as well, add to that that I live in Brazil, and that’s how I dodged this and most every right wing meme and even communist ones for that matter
Now that makes a lot more sense
I have no idea of what you’re talking about
I don’t know if I’d call it open war still there were aggressions but I don’t know if they are moving towards open conflict just yet. It’s quite possible but how I see it I wouldn’t call it war just yet.
Fair enough
They do have war with Russia and Korea actually, Ukraine is as sure as day a proxy war of the US and Russia, and Korea there is us troops by the boatload in South Korea, and since they are in armistice they’re aiding in the war. Iran true they are not in any conflict right now, at least not open and same for China though the US has all that noise with Taiwan that who knows where it’s gonna land.
So I gather from this answers that none of this news articles never articulate any concrete cost that they alleged? Because I know that anything they could say would be skin deep at most but never anything substantiated but I expected something, I’ll try to track down some of this news and check
Out of legitimate curiosity, what are the alleged costs they usually point at?
My point precisely, I didn’t dislike the intent of the picture, it is fun but I like to temper it with reasonable criticism, all about contradictions
Sure I get it but jokes mean stuff and can shape some ways of thinking specially to newer members people still learning, so I like to be on the cautionary side and leave my two cents here.
I like the idea of this picture, but I think that the problem is that many people level criticisms to communism as a religious-like school of thought, and I think this fuels that narrative, that we are dogmatic and preaching it to others, I don’t think that is a good way even for us to see ourselves, as preachers of the truth, we are people who ought to be among the proletariat and offer support so we all collectively rise together, and is only engaged with the people among the people that we cant put our thesis to the test, and improve Marxism, we do not preach we act.
The capybaras are already on route, and the context was once some folk tried to exterminate the emu population wirh weapons, and it went quite poorly, I think it’s what its refering
There is a hundred different answers, first of all depending on the case the material reality of a single person might be better in their country and it is more than fair for people to want to live better. There is the family and friends ties, its not that easy to uproot and go. There is the fact that its far from cheap to move to another country and even communist countries have immigration law and they need to acept you. And further more many people want to work on the revolution in their own land instead of moving out.
Assuming that its not complete nonesense I could totally see the scientist chuckling a bit and saying that guy Biden is acting just like that Havana syndrome nonsense that people talked. And the ex KGB guy says Biden made the scientist think of the Havana syndrome
