How to deal with the proletarianization of the US is an intimidating subject that communists basically have to tread into completely alone, it's hard work, there is no alt media or quirked up social science journal that can chart the course. Putting the escape hatch issue to bed should be a lot easier than that

Yes, it's starting to come home! I honestly don't know what to expect since I refuse to follow DC or state politics in the US in depth most of the time, it takes up everyone's whole viewport. Then I try to get a better angle and the best I have is a Swede with a hyperfixation on the Sengoku period of Japan. I am truly lost I just know something worse + even funnier is around the corner

Hey can't let the Trump people be the only ones doing it 😄

I am astonished nobody knew moving to China is like literally impossible until Trump got elected and they panicked

Also respect to the mods for not letting me be mean to people I always regret it if it works anyways

Something better than all of the current stuff you see online is buried in the growth & wider adoption of federations like activitypub, & the internationalization of the internet. Internet is still super imperial rn. We've seen nothing yet except echoes of the Bush-Obama years antiwar movements in Silicon Valley dominated spaces

Working on a thing about this I will tag you when I post it. It relates to the current discourse about the labor aristocracy: worker politics in the imperial core are just about gaining faster access to the housing market 90% of the time without any regard for immigrants, the under- & unemployed, and without any considerstion at all of the global periphery. When there are reverse transplants from the core to the periphery (instead of petit boug in the periphery making enough money to come to the US) it's done in a way where people exploit currency exchange rates to live without working the rest of their lives. (So becoming more bourgeois is almost always a retirement goal for core workers)

So this will be a guide for how not to be a shitty expat and actually integrate

USA does its best to hand Pyrrhic victories to the global south countries when it can't win (and it keeps forgetting it can't) because decimating development - be it agriculture, industries, culture, or the infrastructure and functions of the state- reinforces the dependency relationship the first world relies on for sustenance

Actually I think it was Andy Morin's art project website's server https://a2b2.org/ they made the most horrible anarchist zines. There are probably still 4 bored artsy communists in there idk

https://annas-archive.se/md5/cf3d8f9c2a23ba844a0e749908f89a06 try reading one book about the country you pretend to understand 😄

Hey as long as they have SagePub we're good https://journals.sagepub.com/action/showFeed?ui=0&mi=ehikzz&ai=2b4&jc=sso&type=axatoc&feed=rss

MR Online still has one of those "powered by Google" search widgets they're old af yet somehow I first heard of them ten years ago in the Death Grips Discord server 😄

Thank you, recommendations are always welcome.

Hey it's actually possible on a modest salary, you just need to a pick a country that pays its workers and will let you in

Go away boomer

Depends on the state lol, I would be really interested in Oceania where it is really impossible for the US to offer anything better than China, and they can't refuel stuff efficiently that far anyways. At some point the US has to accept the political loss and close some of these bases up due to the logistical burden

That's wild, I got the screenshot generated by the archive.today website itself & sat there archiving it smdh

It should work now I just rearchived it

Bad news bro, I saw some advertising copy for a private intelligence contractor specializing in social media, and Mastodon was in it. Trust me. They are here

Make a blog so we can repost it chuddy

Nice ty RAND will post a lot of junk in between the full scale admissions of fucking up a proxy war or being vastly behind in refueling capacity to go to war with China directly, I often miss this kind of thing

Done by who? Done how? Tf does this mean

There are plenty of societies that have strong state-backed training and education programs. The AI narrative is majority a smokescreen for financialization and downsizing of firms and privatizarion of the state

Just like with the blockchain, China's been the first to implement a version with an actual use - not financial speculation and buying drugs, and a more power and resource efficient version - of overhyped tech financial bubble buzzword technologies, because they don't judge its utility differently than any other technology. They don't have these religious financial cults around AI

They will likely be the only nation other than close regional SEA allies to implement AI in governance effectively instead of using it to somehow make servers using UI from 2014 worse + more insecure & strengthening the Tesla/Palantir/Anduril investor pitch " The Evil Privatized Government Has Anointed Us Chief Devourer of the State Social Services/Tech/Green Energy Budget" where everyone can stuff the 1 trillion dollars the fed prints daily for banks

First worlders who want to pull themselves back out of the hole somehow should stop focusing singlemindedly on minimum wage struggle and public debt, and start worrying about land reform, access to hours + employment, and public housing.

Downvotes don't matter as much here anyways since you can get high quality content by sorting from new and muting some communities + instances. That's not true of reddit's garbage pile.

I'd like a sort by the most up + down votes total so I can see what made someone angry enough to bot or brigade at one time or another
