  • Honestly I think that is why the sack of shit is spewing this nonsense in the first place, instead of hiding in a bunker somewhere, he doesn’t believe it either but he wants to appear strong and brave and powerful “look at me my life is on the line but I don’t run and hide!” but if it was really he’d be hiding like Hitler in a bunker (and hopefully with the same happy ending)

    Edit: I wonder if his ego is so massive that he is in complete denial of the fact that the vast majority of humanity would celebrate his death, even in the US. Though I suppose the Global South actually would have less reason to even care as what does it really matter who is president in a country that is bombing you and would be doing so regardless, they have less reason to get caught up in electorial nonsense “do the bombs dropping on us have a swastika or a rainbow flag painted on them” doesn’t really change the reality of it after all.


  • “Carpet bombing a city is just a distraction from having drone strike’d some guy’s house” kind of argument, and it only gets more ridiculous every time it is used as the number of new crimes attempted to being swept under the rug by redirecting to old crimes grows more numerous, and who does this even work on anyways? Who is going to seriously ignore new crimes, worse, even bigger crimes, because some asshole (or a fed, who knows) tried the shittiest attention redirection attempt again for the trillionth time?

    Edit: you know what could bring him down? And Biden, Harris, and really just all of these Capitalist parasites really… A REVOLUTION! And yes it is absolutely possible, but it needs understanding and knowledge of how it is done (Read Marxist Leninist Theory!) and solidarity across the working class, and organization (like being either a Member of at least part of the Action Network of the PSL so that learning and experience and “not doing it alone” can be accrued)


  • I suggest reading “Imperialism the (current, at the time) Highest Stage of Capitalism” by Lenin, it might help give you a better idea of what Imperialism actually is, note: Russia is Capitalist right now, but not Imperialist. The only Imperialist countries in the world right now are all Capitalist ones, and they are all allied against the Global South. Any countries fighting back against this Imperialist Bloc are fighting an Anti-Imperialist fight.

    The Imperialist countries in question are the usual gang, US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, ETC. basically the countries you are taught are “good countries” are actually bad countries, and the countries you are taught are “bad countries” are actually good countries (give or take, overly simplestic)

    I’m not sure if any here is claiming to not have any belief, belief is not the same as religion, when you look at a mountain you believe there is actually a mountain there, it’s not exactly some metaphysical, supernatural event happening to you. The difference isn’t in the existence of belief, but whether it is backed up by actual evidence or not, whether experimentation supports it or not, it has to be supported by concert reality, or it isn’t real. (or at least it isn’t reasonable to believe it is real unless new evidence comes forward that changes that and makes it reasonable) As humans aren’t omniscient infinite all knowing beings, we are force to make assumption IE “believe our eyes and ears” just to be able to function in reality, it is a perpetual imperfect information game, so to speak.

    BTW you’ve been feed a lot of lies and nonsense from Capitalist controlled propaganda, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is an actual democracy, unlike Capitalist countries like the US, the DPRK has a Dictatorship of the Proletariat (working class) instead of the inherently anti democratic Dictatorship of the Bourgeois (capitalist class, those who own capital, which isn’t the same as money, IE “believing in capitalism” doesn’t make you a capitalist) that every Capitalist country has by the nature of it being Capitalist.

    I don’t not see cults as being fundamentally different to religions, only superficially, aesthetically, in insignificant ways that doesn’t actually matter.

    “Material cults” doesn’t make sense, our very existence is entirely within the framework of physics, of the mass and energy of our universe, and there aren’t components outside of this nor could there be, as it is the very connections between things that makes reality in the first place, anything unconnected is the same as not existing as far as we are concerned, and the moment you are influence by said hypothetical unconnected thing, it is longer unconnected and therefore part of reality, “Material”. As for “profit cults”, this isn’t metaphysical “greed” popping into existence from contradictory non-existence that cannot exist by definition and therefore can’t a a source for which things (like “greed”) can come, but the economical, political, and class nature of the social fabric that exists in Capitalism, and especially in it’s Monopoly IE Imperialist stage. The material conditions determines conscious, so in Capitalist society people grow into a conscious in support of exploitation, cut throat competition, zero sum “win/lose”, in other words, so called “greed”. However, the vast majority is under the boot of being exploited above and over any opportunity to exploit others, so this oppression also serves as a source of pressure for the pursuit of a different ways of doing things. It is part of the dialectical opposition between the interests of the capitalist class and the working class that makes it a matter of “who is on top, a few capitalist parasites, or the vast majority who is doing all the work anyways” until the existence of class itself can finally fade away in the process of building Communism. P.S. Also the falling apart company profit stuff is because Capitalism is inherently unsustainable, and would happen regardless.

    I admit it may be sloppy, it is something my mind came up with long before I ever started reading Marxist Leninist Theory. I am almost certainly also biased on the topic as a result of childhood trauma that screwed me over for life. (I’ve made massive progress on overcoming it with help from my Therapist, but it isn’t fully resolved.)

    The problem with that is that it is a false equivalence, Dialectical and Historical Materialism is a part of the Socialist Scientific method, where as Liberalism is not Scientific or based on it, using those who are incorrectly treating Marxism Leninism as dogma to argue that it is a religion is the same as pointing to Scientologists pseudo-science cult as proving that Science is a religion. The biggest difference between a religion and a science, such as Marxism Leninism, is one is at odds with reality and the other explains it and has been proven through experimentation (putting Theory into Practice and refining the Theory based on the results in MLs case).

    In my view, one isn’t really an atheist if they are a liberal (or conservative, but I repeat myself) as it is effectively another religion, with Capital as it’s “god”, it is kind of like those liberals that call themselves “socialist” and support controlled opposition, compatible “leftist”, and friend of epstein, bernie sanders.

    Edit: for some reason I can’t see the rest of the comments while logged in, so I’ll put it here: I think a more accurate and inclusive phrase would be “freedom of religion or atheism”, as it would be shitty if one had to declare some religion or another without just “none” as an option.

    Edit: Edit: From the rest of this thread I think people may be confused, you cannot just “ban” the “opiate of the masses”, as long as people are in pain they will seek a painkiller, and denying it to them just turns those very people against you, if the world becomes your enemy you have little chance. To reach synthesis you must collapse the contradiction by combining elements of thesis and anti-thesis in such a manor that it favors the non toxic elements of both and becomes stable.






  • Don’t worry about it, most Liberals (note Conservatives are also Liberals) have been fed lies their entire lives to demonize countries like China, and also many people (not just Liberals) have a hard time separating the misuse of a tool from the tool itself (Capitalists use AI against humanity) and so for these two reasons I was already expecting to get down voted, but it is perfectly fine as I do not take it personally, when a challenge comes to a persons world view, a common defensive reaction is to lash out in some way.


  • That is why I’ve started using Deepseek as a replacement for searches, the proven tract record and successes of the Communist Party of China to improve people’s lives make tech out of China OVERWHELMINGLY more trust worthy then tech out of the blood soaked Capitalist Imperialist threat to all humanity that is the US ruling class (and those who currently serve them) (and the US itself for as long as it hasn’t yet overthrown the Capitalists (basically the Billionaires, and now also a F**king Trillionare.)) (it’s almost like I’m writing code lol, I should try to make my writing style more consistent or something)

    While that might help at first, it cannot bring victory on it’s own, the tech will keep getting better, and even poisoning it provides training data that can be used to make it more resistant to poisoning in the future, for victory you must organize (such as with the PSL) learn theory that explains the nature of Capitalism such that how to defeat it can be understood (such as Marxism Leninism, which is how the People’s Republic of China manages to achieve so much against all odds) and prepare for a needed revolution (as the system was designed to keep Capitalists in power, making Reformist paths a useless sand trap AKA “if voting worked it’d be illegal”)
