I donated to both. I really would do more if I could.

POV you just called gamers a bunch of gammons in a mod sticky:

1. Class generally supercedes identity groups.

2. Media, most propagandised population in the world.

3. Largest quantity of brainworms in the world.

4. Extremely high illiteracy.

5. Equally bad media-literacy (goes hand in hand with actual literacy)

Of course lots of people from these groups are going to be duped and, as Stalin put it, led into the jungle.

Condemning them for being duped under these circumstances doesn’t make it sound like you have their interests in mind, it makes it sound like you don’t actually give a shit about them. This is true and part of the problem. It’s part of what makes them easily duped, they recognise the liberals aren’t sincere supporters and only pretend to care about them because they need them in order to win. It’s conditional support. Liberals have no principles.

Chastising victims for being victims does nothing to help, and actively hinders.

Xi I don’t ask you for much but please just this one time please give nuclear weapons to Puerto Rico.

Innit it’s being trained in ways that don’t really accomodate anyone outside of the very specific techbro american culture where they’re being trained too.

AI moderation for example HATES communities that are culturally british, or australian, or new zealand, the english-speaking countries that are generally much more relaxed about language they use and I’m not just talking about the slurs either. I mean just generally american “civility” bs is built into the analysis and it’s fucked. Nothing I’ve written here would be considered bad by a Brit but if I put this in a tiktok or youtube comment it won’t post, it’ll be automoderated for harassment or some shit.

Literally everyone outside an extremely narrow white techbro american interpretation of correct social behaviour is going to be screwed by all this stuff. It’s genuinely culturally insensitive and intrusive. I can’t really say how this differs for non-English speaking countries, I assume the AI training is not as good or not implemented there. Generally the issue is that all “English” speakers are expected to interact by american standards and not their own. This is effectively going to train a generation of people into acting like yanks and I fucking hate it.

Sorry, went off on a tangent here but yes I’m extremely interesting in the neurodiversity angle on the same topic because I am frustrated by this rubbish literally every single day.

Strongly recommend looking at the before/after satellite pictures of Valencia right now. It is has been fucking destroyed.

One year of rain fell in 8 hours.

It’s exactly the same tory policy as liz truss except with a black woman this time so “You can’t call us racist now”

The ear looks like a cancerous growth

I don’t think this is a statement. I used to wear a british red jacket daily during my punk and heavy drugs years. Rather similar to this one:

You’ll be fine.

I messed around and made something bad

Well your solution to that is to have only one party TANKIE.

The new Tory party leader btw:

We are fighting a war that has been ongoing for hundreds of years and it will continue after we are gone if it doesn’t end in our lives.

Fight that war, but also live your life the way that works for you while you do it. If that means throwing yourself at the cause then do it, if it means giving only a piece of your week to the cause then do that.

Winning also won’t mean a moment of self-reflection either. They will become the smuggest mother fuckers around, they will take it as justification that they can be unhinged reactionaries.

In fact, exactly the same outcome happens both ways.

I’m using we to refer to marxists, collectively, everywhere in the world.

I don’t agree that Arce is a marxist when what he’s doing is the same as Lula.

Hope that’s not true, but either way we need a better plan for this problem. It will happen to our own movements. It arguably has happened in the past to them too. What theory do we have to resolve it? Why haven’t we analysed it and built strategy around an inevitable eventuality that has killed the left multiple times?

We’re not very good at dealing with the socdem split and I do not know why we haven’t thought about how it should be planned around more.

Incredible behaviour.

I think the only good ending to this would be if Evo and Arce came to an agreement, like a candidate they could both agree on. But until then, these protests will only make the country more unstable and strengthen the far right. I doubt there will be a coup, since Arce has the open support of Brazil and China, but you never know, especially with the US sending troops to Ecuador and Peru, two countries with extremely weak right-wing governments that are on the verge of collapse. And there always Milei who keeps being a little shit that promotes US imperialism in South America, but at the same time keeps crying and begging Lula, Petro and Xi for money and food.

The issue is that this is not a simple disagreement or egos. Those play a role, but these are two undeniably different ideologies conflicting with one another for power. The path of the usual south america pink social democracy under Arce or the red path under the radicals. Venezuela or Brazil.

They were always going to conflict over direction eventually. This conflict will always play out in every left-revolution. It is inevitable and MLs should keep this in mind and prepare for it more fully.

But you can say, as many leftists have said, that Evo is dividing the left by wanting him and only him to be the presidential candidate, when he knows that this is illegal within the Bolivian

I’ve stopped calling him a demsoc because of this. It would require a revolution to throw the current constitution out and rewrite whatever it is he wants that allows him to be president again. It’s the only way.
