Communism

Great comment, of course, but this part in particular:

Now for the part where you really make yourself look ridiculous: you pretend you’re some “hard science” guy while dismissing historical and dialectical materialism. I have a bachelor’s, master’s, and PhD in STEM, alongside a master’s in Marxist theory. Socialist theory is not vibes or moral preference, it’s a systematic framework for analyzing class relations, production, surplus, and material conditions. You clearly don’t understand that method, yet you keep lecturing people who do. Liberal capitalism, by contrast, rests on idealist fairy tales about “human nature,” “markets,” and “incentives.”

I am incredibly jealous that this is an option for people. In the west, any Marxism taught in schooling is heavily distorted, either to outright condemn it as evil, or to create "western leftists" that turn doomer enough to tacitly support imperialism. There are some decent orgs that do good training, but not at an institutional level. As a consequence, we all basically have to be self-taught, ideally combining theory with real practice so as to avoid the "western left" phenomenon.

Still, really cool that you have a master's in Marxism! Huge respect for that (along with the PhD, of course), and it makes any compliments you've paid me seem far too flattering, haha.
