  • I wouldn't be surprised if Britain went the rout of the US and just started literally eating coal again. France.... Fuck France.

    China all the way baby.

  • So is the quality of the schooling different? Do public schools have better education overall? Is it so competitive because of the cheaper cost and better funding? Trying to understand how it all works. Kind of sounds like it's pressuring lower income students to have to prove themselves to get the cheaper (cost wise) schooling whereas the more wealthy can pay their way through the private schooling sector. And that sounds like the west only instead of fighting to get a grant into a high end private school they are fighting to get into a cheaper costing public school. Which in the end, both cases sound like it's about paying less for an education.

  • The literal answer is socialism. Stress for demands from school, work, etc are massively minimized when you know you will be safe if something happens. When you have people and community that wants your success as a person. That's the kind of thing China works towards. Japan and SK have similarly stressful school expectations and stuff but the capitalist society isolates them. Imagine the stress of losing your job in a society where you have safety nets to helps you recover, vs one where it means your life may be over? Same with school. Schools in China may be competitive but they actively want people to succeed and provide for your needs for schooling much more than the other two. Where school is also a competition but there is no real active push by your community to help you succeed. If you fall behind it's more ridicule than wanting to help you.

  • Apart and you have two competing car manufacturers that are both having to scale down and are hurting more financially. Together you may essentially destroy one but you make the other stronger, at least for a time. "Divided we fall" and all that. I see the failure of the deal as a win for China. Because instead of one stronger company to compete with, there's two weaker ones that also have to compete with each other.

  • How is a failed merger of Japanese auto makers, in an attempt to compete against the Chinese auto makers, a loss for China?

  • "Space Farce" sounds like a really good name for a documentary about how big of a joke that organization is.

  • The poor can't afford it and the rich send their kids off to follow the family business of being useless leeches on society. It's funny. The poor see those positions as not worth pursuing because they don't pay enough to counter the immense debt...
    Then the rich think it's beneath them.

  • Oh, absolutely you are right 100%. I love the show despite the gripes. But it is also just a show. I watch it for entertainment. It has a good story and good jokes. The fact it's being so heavily critiqued is just... Idk. Weird? Of all the horrible shows and animes out there, some that literally support actual fascism... To go after little ol Avatar seems really silly to me.

  • Basically yeah. It's about showing that he just wants revenge and is willing to kill people just to satisfy that. I mean, the whole show is neoliberal "don't kill the bad guy" pacifist shit where Aang won't even kill magic fire Hitler out of principle.... but like also.. it's a fucking kids show? Are we really going to Marxist critique a damn kids show for not killing the bad guy?

  • "Is the messaging effective"

    It's a fucking nickelodeon kids show. Lol. What? Take a step away and breathe. JFC. If this is the kind of shit you are gonna get rilled up about. Enough to make a 10 minute video critiquing, again, a fucking kids show, for not openly condoning killing a bunch of civilians then honestly your opinions will never be taken seriously by me.

    Maybe take a step back and consider "As a Marxist, is this really the best thing for me to spend my time on? Is this the best I can do to spread communism and get people to take us seriously? Attacking a popular show that was made for kids."

  • A PhD in licking boot.

  • UK tech bros trying to get in bed with the elite by licking boot and attacking the left.

  • It's always everyone else that will be affected. Never them. This is what individualism has done to them. They have no concept of being part of society. They are separated from it and the only way to get through to them that they are all part of the same society is to bash them in the head with it.

  • I honestly refuse to believe people that stupid exist and that they are just some

  • Imagine having a PhD in Liberalism and being proud of that.

  • I am aware of this and know that's the best course.... But still... It would be so satisfying in the moment. Maybe... Maybe they just can let them stew a bit. Let them sweat for a little while.

    Older video that uses the wests own documentaries to disprove the modern western version of the Tiananmen square "massacre."

    I saw another post about tomorrow being "tank man day" on reddit. I wanted to share this little video that I think does a decent job debunking the west narratives using the wests own material.

    The US will be the end of the human race because they gave an AI conflicting orders to bomb a village of innocent brown people on the other side of the planet.

    The US surveillance state. Very interesting video. One of the first ones that started to open my mind to the US being truly evil. 9 years old but still kind of relevant.
