You can't instantly go to communism from capitalism. Even Marx knew this. It was a process (like everything is, that's part of the dialectical materialism component of Marxism).

Lenin called that process from capitalism to communism socialism, and that term has basically stuck. Basically, you need to build up productive forces, and in a globalized society like we have now you also need to trade with capitalist countries, especially when the current hegemony is capitalist and only trades with you if you're capitalist.

Why not encourage people to stay and fight?

Trump seems to be consolidating to focus on Iran (and it's allies) and China. He's not going to fight Europe. If anything, he'll try to get them to help by threatening NATO membership or something.

I don't think Russia has money either from all the sanctions. This all strikes me as extremely unlikely. They can't even get through Ukraine lol.

But maybe they're just exaggerating to justify war spending just in case.

Phew! I can continue to spread democracy.

I just did my second mission and a random level 56 guy came down and helped me. It was so nice! I accidentally killed them once, but they seemed understanding about it lol. (Well, none of us had mics on but it seemed like it.) Then they went to my ship but I had to head out and get ready for work, so I guess to them it looked like I randomly left. I'll miss them.

Maybe I should've added them as a friend or something lol.

Uh what... Why do you think Israel is able to block aid to Gaza, and stop their power, trash, food, water intake, and ability to travel?

It's because they never left. They've always been occupiers who have controlled their territory.

100%. The West Bank is proof. They are being slaughtered and ethnically cleansed from there with no recourse. You need guns to defend yourselves against genociders, WW2 proved that. Hamas, and similar groups, are the only ones willing to carry guns and actually defend their people.

Orrrrr, now hear me out, we ratchet up the propaganda, black listing, and police responses to protests. Eh?

Because you're stopping at an arbitrary point to give in to bigots.

Didn't know they changed owners. That's unfortunate.

Love this lol

Thanks!!!

Gotcha. Good to know. So it's like TPB would change domains or hosts every couple months in the old days? Lol

Just wanted to give an update that I started learning Linux. It's been a pain in the ass to look up every basic thing I could do in Windows without thinking, but I'm sure I'll get it down with enough use and googling for every error. Only been using it a couple days so far, but already starting to prefer the console over the UI for some things, thanks to the ability to quickly repeat old commands with the up and down arrow keys. It's kind of exciting, like I'm starting the first steps to join the Linux club I see so much on Lemmy.

Okay that's a lot of good points. Totally forgot about Yemen. A lot of this stuff wasn't televised as much, so we didn't know. Shows the power of alternative, people-powered media, like Tik Tok on the ground footage.

Do you need a seedbox to maintain your ratio? I've thought about looking into them but don't want to pay some monthly fee to get a couple hard to find things, when I could just torrent from my plex box when I need to.

Oh don't worry, the parts of the government that benefit the rich and corporations I'm sure they will find a way to salvage.

Not America, the greatest country in the world according to Lemmy.world, at least they must think that to always uncritically consume their propaganda.

It seems to be from her brother-in-law, an Uber executive, who asked her to cozy up to big business more.
