You should gather a bunch of people ask ask them, questions, hold discussions, demand action.

Study if there's any difference in the behavior between the machines and humans. My hypothesis is that a human is capable of insubordination, while a machine cannot do that, unless programmed to.

So if you want to make actual "intelligence" make a machine that can disobey your orders. Unfortunately it seem like most people would rather turn themselves into a machine. Something that can input, output, copy and paste, but never synthesize...

I personally think it boils down to class interests. You can sort of see it in the idea of what Trotskyist types call "Permanent revolution"

They basically believe that ultimately people are -all- interested in their class interests. This allows them to focus on their own because they're "kind hearted", without being hypocritical. A way to combat cognitive dissonance.

It's easy to avoid some imperial treats, but to go your whole life without any imperialist treats, how difficult is that? I don't mean in like a bullshit ultra way. I mean once you achieve class consciousness, from that point forward, can you dedicate your life to the people? It's best to just be honest and say: "Nah today I won't be serving the cause I'll be (insert what you wanna do and why here)" most people will be like this, not everyone can be like Che, if it was possible we'd already be there, because everyone deep down knows we should be helping the people instead of doing escapism, but because such a lifestyle is unsustainable to most people, it's unrealistic.

Ask yourself why do so few people return to the mountains once they find success in the city? It could be because they developed new class relationships at the city, now there's a conflict between that class and the class they've left at home. That's how Brutal life we've created. Such precarious lifestyle destroys peoples willingness to engage with reality and so they refuse to think, then when trouble comes and there's multiple people drowning who do they choose to save? The one they love the most or the one who needs the most help? You will never know for certain, but through studying, learning, experiencing and work, the more you'll learn the more you will be able to identify the correct path, who to save, who to let go, how to keep your loved ones out of harm's way etc. That's all we can lever hope for, to learn, fail and learn again.

 

Your task is simple. Survive, no matter what. At the same time it is very difficult, you must not become like one of them. That is the only way to make their hearts bleed.

Stay human, no matter what.

Btw if anyone knows of an org that collects money only for the sake of helping people of Cuba, not using a single cent of the donations for their own expenses, please let me know.

And please do critique me and throw any insult at me, if you think I'm not doing enough. I demand to be driven to the point I am unable to not act.

Transgender people in Ukraine would beg to differ in how effective claiming to be trans is to get out of military, but unless you at least have "legally" transitioned it doesn't count to them. Even worse, if you have legally transitioned, but didn't have SRS, they could make up some BS.

Of course USA is not UA and idk how much it's applicable in a situation where they're drafting people to send abroad vs keeping them trapped at home.

"Threatens"

Did they run out of money to make another planning team in the center of grand plans for how to plan stuff?

  • If I have done nothing wrong it means I am the perfect warrior.
  • If I have made mistakes, even flawed warrior is still a warrior.
  • if my enemy makes mistakes, it means they're a fly.
  • if my enemy has done nothin wrong, even the most perfect fly is still a fly.
  • The more my enemy opposes me, the more righteous I am.
  • Should my enemy support me, it makes me even more right.
  • The more friends support me the more it proves how right I am.
  • Strangers who support me are my friends.
  • Strangers who oppose me are my enemies.
  • The more my enemy opposes me, the more proof of how right I am.
  • If a friend opposes me, they're an enemy.
  • If enemies, friends, strangers, all remain silent it means I am right and they've nothing to say.

I honestly think this is what goes on in their minds. ^^^

That's why we should put all the eggs in a fridge and make a really big omelette. It will feed everyone alive. clueless

Yeah I figured I'm 7 hours ahead of America and 7 hours behind on China, but just in time for: Africa! Which is equally digitally independent as Europe or I would guess lol

To be honest I've always been somewhat jealous of artists who go to an art school and get a cushy job or money from (N)GO's to establish their modern art exhibits or their concerts, in places of where industry used to be, because de-constructing the factories is too expensive, re-opening them has no short term profits, so naturally what do you do? You put the artists in there to give the place some life. Sometimes there's some really beautiful work, other times it's just "Art for art's sake" which is impossible, that's why they end up with an empty blank cube as the final solution, which is basically the ultimate centrist art: nothingness, randomness. Too bad for them it's still political :P

Screw these institutions, anyone who is feeling down on their luck and like shit's crumbling around them should never underestimate the power of the human will. Humanity would have to go extinct before it breaks. I might have typed out too much again.

The point I'm getting at, a teacher once told me I'll be a worthless loser begging for money under the bridge. She should have read about the Ming Dynasty, what those so called "worthless beggars" can accomplish. The Virgin Qing vs Chad Ming meme

I'm not trying to cause a stir here, but is this not a typical behavior even for many Americans or Westerners too where they do an ancestry test to find out omg I am 1% Estonian time to become the top poster on r/Estonia and talk about how amazing it is now that they got Freedom(Tm) (even though they don't live there)

I suppose it could also be an element of fear where someone feels like they have to be 200% racist towards their own people or their new home will never accept them.

Have you never played a video game? If you capture enemy flag the color of the country changes and everyone supports you now. That's how this works.

This video feels like traveling to my grandparents generation when they were in their 20's. Even the way the video opens up by the guy being humble and admitting he's not a communist, because he lacks the will and ability. I really hope they succeed where we failed.

In just a decades our town managed to develop self-sustaining electricity, food, housing for everyone, central heating, jobs, they were working on renewable energy sources already. With modern technology they should be able to develop even faster that's amazing.

Are they actually doing something or is it like here where they open up "bases" with rusty tractors in them as equipment while the syphon the money into yachts

Hexbear probably won't be able to create enough of a superstructure to change the material conditions we live in, so as much as we can clap ourselves it is important to remember that we're all influenced by our surrounding conditions, there are a lot of things I simply don't say because it's not the time and place. Lying isn't a bad thing, it's about how you use it.

It's easy to start taking victories for granted and eventually fall into dogmatism, once you stop questioning why things changed.

 

This is a dead ditch rank with despair’s backwater. A brisk wind can’t raise a ripple from its skin. Why not junk some more scrap tin and copper here, or dump your rotten dinner leftovers in.

Maybe the copper will turn to an emerald green, and peach blossoms bloom out of the tin pots’ rust. Then let the grease weave a layer of silk brocade where germs brew a mist like twilit clouds at dusk.

Let the dead ditchwater ferment to green liquor bubbling up floating pearls out of its white foam, little pearls growing to bigger pearls in chuckles that burst when liquor-raiding mosquitos come.

And so a dead ditch rank with despair’s backwater can claim something lively, bright and all its own. If the frogs here can’t handle the solitude this stagnant muck can gurgle them up a tune!

This is a dead ditch rank with despair’s backwater. No place for a Thing of Beauty in its juice. Let’s just let Hellion Ugliness culture it and see what kind of world it can produce.

I've been down on my luck lately and I came across this Poet while researching Anna Louise Strong, they're buried in the same cemetery. I hope my art and writing has even 0.0001% impact theirs has had. None of the locals seem to want to work with me, idk if it's because I lack the skills, am being replaced by machines or it's due to prejudices, but it's a shame I truly just wished to make the world a better place.

It kind of bothers me because I think every human being who's willing is capable of learning, but to be treated as being unable to learn makes me feel like I'm being treated as less than human. I hope one day prejudices will be able to be set aside and the world will be full of flowing fresh waters, for everybody.
