Better than mine haha

That doesn’t rhyme with how many kids did you kill today though, loses some of its catchiness.

Hey hey genocide Joe, how many kids did you kill, do you know?

Great man theory in action. It’s not Netanyahu. He’s a symptom of the wider bigotry in Israeli society. Read South Africa’s complaint to the ICJ. Many, many, many members of their government are in full support of this genocide. Even the citizenry majority support the “war”, they’re just mad the hostages haven’t been returned yet.

It’s not just Netanyahu, it’s most of the government. Even the majority of Israeli citizens support the “war”, and are only protesting because they haven’t returned the hostages yet.

He’s a hardcore Zionist dude

I’ve been thinking of how we could revive the “Hey, Hey LBJ, how many kids did you kill today” chant but with Biden, and your comment reminded me to think more on it.

There’s fully autonomous mowers, I almost worked for a company that builds some.

I had a job offer at a place that makes robotic lawnmowers, but they required you to go to Florida and Texas every year for “field testing”. We have sunshine 300 days a year here, and we also don’t have barbaric laws stripping people of their rights, so I turned it down.

My wife doesn’t even work full time and can afford to live in the city center of her 20 million person city. Lots of people work a lot in many places, I work full time making 4x min wage and can’t afford to rent a one bedroom apartment. My boss works 60 hours a week, and in fact, most restaurant workers here work 50+ hours a week. She’s working as we speak, and making triple overtime. Food, shelter, healthcare, and medicine are so cheap and accessible there that I literally cried the first time I went and realized how shit the US is in comparison. Riding the subway cost me ¥2, less than 1/10 the cost of one hour of minimum wage work. Even getting premade food delivered there is cheaper than going to the grocery store to make your own food in most western places.

On your other point, one of my closest friends there is a vocal critic of the Chinese government, he’s never been arrested, or even talked to by the government. Their prison population is far too low for such things to be true. Their police kill an average of 2 people a year in a country of 1.4 billion.

Can you imagine why capitalist states would have an incentive to trash talk China? Why they would be lying about a country that’s safer, cheaper, and produces the majority of the world’s goods while providing cheap, and easy to access housing and amenities?

Genuinely, go visit China. Spend some time there, it’s safe as hell, the food is amazing, the people are kind and helpful.

Really now? Which European country can you afford to rent an apartment as a single person making minimum wage in a city center? Which European country mandates worker democracy in all public and private companies? Which European country can I take a 500+kmph train hundreds of miles for under $20? No ones getting beaten or tortured for not agreeing with the state, maybe quit slurping down propaganda. People are being beaten and arrested in multiple European countries and the US as we speak for standing up for Palestine against their governments. China has been on the right side of the Palestinian occupation for literally 5+ decades, even back when they were extremely poor. China doesn’t even have militarized police on the level of Germany, France, or especially the US.

Nearly all poverty alleviation in the 21st century has happened in China, while nearly all European countries and the US have seen a resurgence in poverty. 800 million people were brought out of extreme poverty with guaranteed housing, food, medical care, electricity, clothing and water.

China is so safe shop owners will leave their goods outside with their WeChat QR code when they close and people will buy on the honor system, in 20 million person cities. Their police kill an average of 2 people a year, in a country of 1.4 billion people. hundreds of western women have talked about how safe they feel there, including wandering around in the middle of the night alone in the largest cities in the world.

You’ve never been, clearly, or you wouldn’t hold such nonsensical views of it.

No state is communist, but China is run by the communist party and is in the process of the development of socialism. It continually improves the material reality for its citizens, something most countries have long since forgotten how to do. A still developing country has higher homeownership rates than any western country, lower violent crime rates, higher access to needed technologies like electrification and electric cars, and produces nearly half of all the world’s clean energy.

It’s not perfect, and it’s still developing, but it’s doing a much better job at taking care of its people than any other country I’ve ever been to.

You mean the capitalist ex-Soviet states? Lmao.

Marxism isn’t a rigid doctrine, it adapts to the material conditions of the world around it, as it was designed to do.

Yeah, I do. My wife lives in China as we speak, in fact. Why would I not want to live in one of the safest countries on earth with the highest level of automation, easily accessible and cheap housing and food, mandated workers democracy, and high speed rail to and from nearly everywhere of note?

Have you ever been to China? It’s better than the US in many, many ways. I make 4x the minimum wage in my state and can’t afford a one bedroom apartment. My wife makes min wage in her province and can afford her own place. I can’t afford to get medical care even with nice insurance because it’s a scam, my wife got daily IV treatments at a high quality clinic for three weeks for under $300 without insurance. She works today (International Workers Day) and is receiving triple overtime pay for it. I could literally go on for hours.

You’re young, don’t be so self-assured.

If they changed the story even a little bit, it wouldn’t be the D2:R treatment. D2:R is literally the exact same game with better graphics, and the option to swap back to the OG graphics at any time.

I’ve triggered scam locks on remittance apps before also, and they were very pushy in informing me that I may be being scammed (I wasn’t, but I honestly didn’t mind too much) when I called to clear them.

Second that, I just checked my private tracker for paw patrol and there’s 57 seeders on a complete series torrent, 279 on the 2021 movie, and 650 on the 2023 movie. I’ve never seen any of them, so I can’t comment on that aspect, but private trackers are the way to go. Id rather give up torrenting if I lost access than go back to public trackers.

Fully functional robotic taxis are already here, they’re just not made by western companies. It’s doubtful musks will ever work at this point, his “fully-automated self-driving” is vaporware.

And just like Kent state, the majority of liberals are hating on the protestors and saying they deserve it, and just like Kent state, in twenty years they’ll all claim they were in their side the whole time.
