That’s partly what my novel is about. I’d list it, but I’ve changed my writing style to make it more accessible, and I plan to make a 2nd edition soon that hopefully my relatives can read. English isn’t their first language.

Realizing angels and God are evil is what made me come to the conclusion it’s all a lie and leave Islam.

His beliefs didn’t change exactly, but his understanding of the world did.

I’d say he switched from lawful to chaotic over time as his character arc.

9/11 has been so overblown. Literally, with the bombing of middle eastern people when the US government used it as an excuse to attack an uninvolved country… such that most people think of it as a joke now.

Also with what the other person said regarding COVID. I personally cannot take that event seriously anymore. In fact, I see anyone who complains about it having to be taken seriously as overprivelaged… Yes, really.

Followuo question. Is our universe perhaps a former seed universe contained in another, the same way black holes are within our current universe?

Opposite experience for me.

Anarchism is fundamentally anti authoritarian so I don’t see how you think I’m proposing that.

The existence of a state and communism are an oxymoron. How can there be equality when there’s still a hierarchy? These nations were also nationalist, which is also at odds with communism. I get how it appears they tried and failed, as did other countries, but there attempts were just for show and don’t indicate that communism is impossible. In fact, humans have lived under what Marx called (though I don’t like the term) “primitive communism” since we first started walking on two feet.
But that being said, I have no idea how anarchism would work on a large scale like with the population of a city.

This is where I get really doomer and say my expectation is that as global warming and wars and famine and disease and authoritarian governments get worse the only places left that you can be free will be anarcho communes. Such a thing is possible in our modern day. Zapatista in Mexico and Rojava in Syria have achieved it as far as I can tell, but I have yet to look into how those communities are run. Rojava I know its situation is far from ideal with them having to make deals with devils, like to give America oil rights. Living in Canada myself I can find a comnune on ic.org to join. Though admittedly I haven’t looked into that past skimming their website.

It is absolutely not our growth as a population that has affected climate change. That’s capitalist doomer propaganda. Those actually responsible for it are the few at the top of capitalist hierarchies. Politicians, billionaires, oil and coal barons. Right now we van feed up to 11 billion people, yet there is still mass starvation and poverty. Capitalists require poverty so that people are desperate enough to work the shitty jobs the capitalists “create”.

As for the rest of what you said, I briefly touched upon this, but even CCP and USSR admitt(ed) they weren’t really communist, and whether they’re socialist is extremely debatable. They’re not communist because by their own admission they’re preparing for a communist world, but they keep saying that and it never comes about. These regimes lie constantly, but even if they lied rarely I’d still not believe they want actual communism because it’d involve giving up their power. What these states actually are is state capitalist.

They’re communist in the same way the Nazis were socialist, or the DPRK is a democratic republic: they’re not.

Fire colour would’ve been better.

It’s when democracy. And communism is when government does stuff. /s

“Think tank” as in circlejerk.

If you want to avoid saying socialism, communism, or true communism (anarchism) then try library economy or gift economy. Some nice examples I’ve heard.

So that’s Shallan, Dalinar, and Kaladin?

That’s how slavery in America was first abolished, right? Well, nvm that it wasn’t really considering the prison industrial complex.

Link to channel please. Google isn’t finding it smh.

“Communists” who think USSR and CCP are good. They often deny their war crimes, then when you prove them they attempt to justify them. Basically red fascists.

Thought this was gonna be about Memri TV smh.

Time to bring out the bricks.

This is misleading. Neoliberalism is inherently capitalist, not socialist/communist.
