Convenient for those of us who don’t have Twitter accounts

Yeah idk why people feel the need to post such things. “Hey guys the Marxist-Leninists on their Marxist-Leninist server temp banned me for talking shit about Marxist-Leninists”.

Like don’t get me wrong it’s annoying when that happens but does it belong on 196?

Be careful, you might make a neoliberal cry with this one

Yeah I’m not too jazzed about uncritical support for China at this stage. If you do even a little bit of reading about China, you can learn that they are not perfect and deserve criticism for these things.

I have a feeling the ML’s who ban for this do it out of fatigue. It’s all anyone wants to talk about when there are other things to learn from China too.

I’m not a tankie, for what it’s worth, I just like to play devils advocate to try and understand where people are coming from and find common ground.

If anyone wants to learn more about China, I suggest reading David Daokui Li’s new book “China’s World View”. It gives an explanation for westerners from a Chinese economist perspective on its goals and culture.

I’d say “often misused” these days. It’s become a common Reddit term to describe anyone left of Obama 🙄

On a long enough timeline, yes! Plus I share my library with like a dozen people so I'm sure someone will appreciate these

This thread has cost me about a terabyte on my NAS.

Proton?

This is why I like this company.

Got a lotta reasons to hate them too, but I have reasons to like them

I think the streaming industry is dying. This is a bit of a darker era in movie history, especially with the strikes and exploitation, but it will pass.

I’m coconut pilled and ready to vote! 🥥🌴

This is true as well. I won’t disagree that there’s nuance here. But still, I think most people have cognitive distortions around the state of every media industry. With the huge rise of Disney and Netflix running the industry, we now see more independent films and new studios taking up the slack. Just like how we’ve had great indie games lately but the mainstream AAA stuff just isn’t impressing the same way. Think of the original couple of assassins creed games and compare them to the new ones. Sure there’s more content, but there’s not as much innovation going on.

I didn’t mind BfA too much. Shadowlands felt like a drag the entire time though. Definitely my least favorite expansion.

I don’t really mind Kamala Harris too much. She’s pretty progressive for a lib. I can only really complain about her support for Israel, and she’s still better than Biden on that.

The next expansion seems good. I’ve been playing cata

I listened to NPR this morning, help! 😭

I hope you find joy in your life. Maybe collecting old movies? :D

Go watch better movies then

Kamala will be good for anarchists too. Improving material conditions for the worker leads to further improvements, better democracy, and therefore a more free society.

Election years always make me sound like a liberal. Ugh

Okayyy you have a point; I'm just referring to the general public.
