It’s kind of hilarious how libs always freak out over China doing censorship, but it’s pretty clear that the level of censorship in the west isn’t substantially different. The difference lies in what is being censored.

The key part is that these policies are necessary to save the capitalist system from a crisis. This is the same logic that was applied by Roosevelt when he enacted The New Deal. It was either that or a worker uprising.

This is why they’re freaking out over tiktok so much, the level of censorship on US owned social media platforms is absolutely stunning.

LMAO

Do you trolls ever get tired of regurgitating the same nonsense over and over?

On a slight tangent, I bet Biden has drastically accelerated BRICS expansion. One day you meet Putin or Xi who are sharp and have actual plans for the future, and next day you meet Biden who’s drooling on himself. I’m sure it made it clear to most world leaders which way the wind is blowing.

get fucked dronie

Lula is basically Brazilian Bernie, he’s there to preserve the capitalist system.

Seems like a simple solution here is for US to just not be in the South China sea.

Given the current circumstances, it appears unlikely that Russia will agree to a ceasefire either. The most likely outcome is Russia emerging victorious and dictating terms. Why would they want to pause and allow the west to regroup. Western nations seem to lack a coherent strategy or unified stance on the matter. While they say that the possibility of Russian victory is unacceptable, their inability to prevent it puts the west in a situation of diminishing bargaining power.

It appears that people within Western mainstream are struggling to come to terms with the reality that their desired victory over Russia cannot be achieved. The West refuses to engage in constructive negotiations, instead insisting on dictating terms to Russia while attempting to maintain a position of superiority. This is unrealistic due to their lack of ability to defeat Russia militarily.

lol yeah

Not of top of my head, this was a realization I had a while back when I was chatting with a friend of mine about the fall of USSR and how quickly the society transformed itself under new social order. It does stem from dialectical analysis however.

There is a central contradiction between the individual and society itself. Individuals are inherently driven by their personal interests and goals, shaped by their unique experiences and material circumstances. Conversely, society establishes a framework of rules, norms, and values, that arise from the material conditions and power dynamics within that society.

Individuals strive to fulfill their desires within the constraints of societal expectations. Meanwhile, societal rules guide their behavior by establishing incentives and disincentives that either encourage or discourage specific actions. This dynamic relationship between personal desires and societal constraints is a dialectical process of constant tension and resolution. Individual actions challenge and reshape societal norms, just as societal changes can influence individual desires and behaviors.

Part of Kallas’ family did actually collaborate with the nazis. Kallas is allowed to claim that she is from a family of repressed people by her mother, who, in infancy, along with her mother and the rest of the family, was deported to Siberia in 1949. The family was expelled because its head was a member of “Omakaitse” - a paramilitary Estonian organization created by the nazis in 1941, which participated in the fight against partisans and Jews, as well as in protecting the borders from the Leningrad region, so that people escaping the famine did not penetrate into nazi-led Estonia.

ha

lol right, like the whole thing is dark comedy

We’re all here to learn. :)

This scenario serves as an excellent example of the significance of systemic analysis. The Soviet system’s selection pressures encouraged individuals to channel their energy towards productive endeavors. Even opportunists like Kallas were compelled to contribute positively to society in order to advance. However, following the counter-revolution, these same people quickly adapted to exploiting societal resources for personal gain, highlighting the importance of the relationship between the rules of society and personal behavior.

I just can’t get over the framing there
