I personally don't really get how someone reconciles materialism with religion, but why be an obnoxious atheist about it? I'd rather not exclude anyone because of my idealistic worldview; either I'm wrong and religion will exist for as long as humanity does (so what did I accomplish by being a dick about it?) or my way of thinking is correct and people are going to come around to that eventually, once the material conditions are right for people to no longer need religion.
Yemen and Palestine are the things that bother me. With the Saudis and Israel being trade partners with China I have to wonder how it all goes down even if the US isn't able to keep propping them up. I guess it's too idealist to hope for a quick and satisfying victory, seems more like it will be a slow burn to solve complicated negotiations.
What's going on in Yemen? Is the war ending but in the favor of the Saudis? What's China's take on the Houthi and how's that situation meant to resolve?

Mods, start banning people for this. I'm tired of this fucking "lol gotcha" bullshit. We as marxists should know better than to joke about this and get people's hopes up. Now excuse me while I take a long drink of this glass of water while opening my news app.
I own a DDR pin but it's not like I can justify it like a book since I'll read that. Do y'all think it's larpy or in some way disrespectful for an Americam to buy that stuff?
