Do you know how many single vote ballots are normal for these elections? Because if not, then you gan not make any assumtions about the order of magnitude of the supposed discrepancy.

In any case: even if all these ballots were fake: it wouldn't change the result, because the difference between Trump's and Harris's votes is still higher.

Stop wasting your and everybody else's time and start organi'ing before Trump's presidency starts. 🙄

You do know how that whole ecosystem of emulation handhelds works, right? O.o

Your school shooting example is horrible. Hardly in the same cathegory as what isdiscussed.

Also, the Snopes article says:

The difference between the two numbers is 130,313 votes — a count nowhere near the 350,000 votes stated by Spoonamore.

So, it's less like the difference between 300 and 260, but more like: The guy pulled his numbers out of his ass.

Everybody likes that.

It's considered to be the best game in Quintet's non-god-game trilogy (Soulblazer And Illusion of Time/Gaia being the other t'o games).

It is really good, but has its' unfair moments. Great music, too.

It was Terranigma.

back when we were trying to have a conversation.

You were trying to have a conversation and managed to goat me into replying. Again, I said:

I don't considersit fruitful to argue with such a devout Leninist in a meme community.

but then why bother replying to me?

Because social media has addictive properties and I couldn't help myself. I'm not accusing you of malcontent, but please stop enabling me.

I'm not avoiding a conversation, I simply have better things to do.

Nooo, those letters to the Sozialistischer Kegelklub, Straubing are vital! Without them you misunderstand Marxism!!! /s 😭😭😭

Thanks for proving my point. Mansplaining can be done by anyone, btw. Not directed at your identity, but what you're doing. Have fun writing the next essay as a reply. I probably won't read it, as I've got a household to manage.

Edit: I changed my mind. Sorry for the gendered term. Should have said "tanksplain" or "MLsplain".

It isn't what you said, but it's what you revealed yourself to have meant.

Bullshit.

you used Anarchist reasoning that goes against all of Marxism

Not if you have a more narrow definition of Marxism, which only includes the theory Marx wrote himself, seated in his historical, social framework.

the notion that it's "idealist" makes no sense. You never back that up

I did, but you refused to accept that by claiming that my definition of a class was wrong, or something. Then you claim that I haven't made a point, just because it contradicts your sacred texts.

You're obviously way too keen on mansplainingtanksplain socialism to people. I have reproductive labour to attend to, so I don't have the energy and/or time to satisfy your need for theoretical circlejerking in ML theory. You can (and probably will) write your BS assumptions about me, while quoting Engels once more, if you want. Whatever makes you feel superior to the ignorant anarchist. But excuse me when I'm muting this conversation.

We therefore arrive at the true meaning of your first comment: Marxism isn't Anarchist, so it isn't Socialist.

lol, not what i said, comrade.

You don't, however, have a background in Marxist theory, so you can't speak as though you do!

Yeah, that's not true. I've read a bit of Marx and enough of Engels. I can barely keep up with the theory that's coherent to my worldview. I'm not willing to read up on 100 years of outdated political theory.

As I've said a few times before: you're way too commited to the leninist party line that you bend over backwards to justify your positions, claiming the "dictatorstip of the proletariat" is materialist, while ignoring the empirical evidence staring you in the face.

As I've said before:

You're far too much simping for Lenin. I don't considersit fruitful to argue with such a devout Leninist in a meme community.

You claim I haven't read Lenin. Have you read any anarchist critiques of leninists? Like Rudolf Rocker:

• https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/rudolf-rocker-the-soviet-system-or-the-dictatorship-of-the-proletariat
• https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/rudolf-rocker-nationalism-and-culture

This one is a bit more contemporary: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/anark-the-state-is-counter-revolutionary

If you haven't, then don't claim like I haven't read any theory, just because I'm not reading your sacred texts.

I'm a Marxist-Leninist

That's what I call "simping for Lenin".

over half of the economy is Publicly Owned and planned

Who controls the public sector? The workers, or the CPC?

CPC increases ownership and control over it as it centralizes,

Ah, I see. That's just state-capitalism.

so far you've failed to demonstrate any actual understanding of Marxism.

That's because you're conflating marxism with leninism. I don't agree with Lenin, simple as that. I would claim that he misrepresented Marx, but I also don't agree with Marx's thesis of a societal trajectory beyond capitalism, either.

Secondly, you claim my analysis is idealistic because I think "a Capitalist society is Socialist as long as the leadership claims to be communist."

You claim that China has a "dictatorship of the proletariat." But the CPC are objectively not proletarian. They call themselves communist, but they lack the material conditions to be called proletarian. Their class is one of bureaucrats (which is underlined by Xi having a doctorate in marxism), which enact the exact same function of the bourgeoisie in capitalism. That's why I call your excuses idealist. But I think you're too ideologically committed to accept that.

Your whole point is that socialism is the transitionary state towards communism. That's Lenin talking, not Marx.

What you consider socialist is basically the same as the alt right's "socialism is when the government does stuff. If it does all the stuff, it's communism".

It's idealistic, because you think a capitalist society is socialist, as long as their leadership claims they're communist.

You're far too much simping for Lenin. I don't considersit fruitful to argue with such a devout Leninist in a meme community.

Spare me with your idealist excuses.

Looks like Saddam Hussein with a really beefy chest.

That's easy to solve:

Are the workers in control of the means of production in China? Not as far as I know.

So, no: It's not.

... is that good? I think it's good. Right?

Edit: help me! ELI5, plz

While it is probably true that he won't get arrested, the headline is quite misleading: they're currently avoiding to answer the question, because the German also has a historical responsibility to adhere to the ICJ.

They want to enable Israeli imperialism while not looking like they didn't learn anything from being the reason the ICJ exists.
