  • Whatever my sources are more or less stated exactly what you’re saying — outlawing something in 2021 only to have to release further legislation in 2025 doesn’t exactly seem like a ‘solved’ problem to me. It is good that the trend is negative. Public control is one thing, however the ‘socialist’ country still produces billionaires which I simply struggle to understand as being socialist. Apparently wealth disparity simply doesn’t matter when talking about this topic (which I feel is pretty important when talking about China, we’re talking the top 10% in China owning two thirds of the wealth compared to the U.S. which is just 4 or 5 % higher than China’s).

    Yes, I understand that the people apparently own the means of production — I still struggle to understand how that can be true with such high (and continuing to climb) wealth inequality. It just doesn’t add up, unless we’re willing to accept that China isn’t actually socialist but capitalist with socialist flavor.


  • Did you vote for Kamala or did you abstain/vote third party?

    I’ve read what you commented below about ‘harm reduction’ actually being ‘harm maximization’ and I’ve got to be honest — it doesn’t actually seem like you know what you’re saying. Because if I take what you’re saying at face value then you’re actually an accelerationist and logically should have voted for Trump.

    Which, uh, obviously completely negates that little bit of virtue signaling above about ‘genocide bad’ (which of course genocide is reprehensible).

    So, genuinely, I’m trying to ascertain — what is your point? Abstain from the system entirely? Kill everyone I disagree with? You’ve said a ton about what we can’t do, what are your solutions?

    If you begin to say ‘communism’ my brain will shut down and I will stop engaging.
