It’s the newest thing. Should go through soon hopefully. But they’re terrible at advertising these kinds of good things.

Isn’t MSNBC the Democrat media? I always thought it was like the liberal Fox.

Can I still support this or did I miss out? And if so, will there be a way to buy the book after somehow?

Omg lol

Is this a real memo? If so, what’s the context? Either way, it’s hilarious.

I heard Andor is good.

I’ve gotten halfway through this game like 3 times. Each time I either get stuck on a boss fight or am trying to do something weirdly specific like steal an item, and then come back to it after too long and have forgotten the kind of complicated story. One day I’ll have to try to beat it without too much pausing so that doesn’t happen.

That’s why everyone said aid through the road would be better and more reliable from the beginning. But then the US would actually have to make Israel do something substantive.

Hopefully they feel vindicated when everyone sanctions Isreal.

Quality content! I’d love to get more into LARP but coming up with an original character is difficult for me sometimes, and role playing for such long amounts of time seem tiring.

You have to imagine other people have no idea about Marxism but what they’ve heard from US propaganda. When they hear you support China, Cuba, and Vietnam, they just hear you supporting dictator for life Xi Jinping and one party state Cuba and Vietnam. You guys need better answers than this.

The other person’s answer was pretty good, though.

There’s hypothetically a bunch of different version of communism for everyone. The thing is, Marx described the problems with capitalism, and some vague sense of what socialism could be, some guidelines of what it should aim for, then kind of left the details up to each individual society to get there how they think is best based on their individual material conditions. He gave his own guesses, but didn’t think he could predict that part fully, it would be up to the people of the future to figure it out and build on. A third world country, rural serf based near fuedal society, like Russia, would have completely different needs from some post-industrial country, like if Germany turned communist, for example. If the world’s sole superpower, the US, turned communist, it would probably be a lot different than communist countries that had to transition under siege neighboring imperialism, like Cuba, North Korea, or Vietnam.

This is just to answer your last question. Don’t think this really addresses your other questions, but just wanted to explain that part, as I’ve had it explained to me before. But I generally agree with you. There should still be some form of democracy but it might look different than what we are used to here in the US or liberal west.

Oh that’s cool. I’m happy that it exists and now kinda sad it’s only owned by one VTT. That would’ve been a good resource for other VTT’s out there.

I have no idea what Demiplane is but I do hate to see companies buy other companies.

Literature Cafe also looks like it has a community for that if we want to spread things out from world a bit. (Which I think we should at some point.)

This actually helps a lot, thanks lol. I generally get where you all are coming from on most topics, although I sometimes think you all are too enthusiastic for weird stuff, like the historically antisemitic Hamas and their war crimes. But at least I get the general idea. But the Russia thing, that one has always confused me the most. But this has helped me understand it at least a little more than anything else so far lol.

Same thing with Biden lol. Obama interfered hard to get him elected during the primary. He’s not great, but he’s been surprisingly better than Trump (in every way but the genocide thing and immigration) so hopefully she’s better than expected, too!

Isn’t that the same logic used to by Israel? “Why don’t the Palestinians just come together and get rid of Hamas? The fact that they don’t proves they are the same or support them.”

Thanks!

Is there any way to help Cuba’s state as an American citizen? Even if I visited I’m apparently not allowed to patronize their state owned businesses and stuff, even though it’s their state that’s actually helping the common people of Cuba (through free health care and education and stuff). I just hate how much my country sucks =(
