Incredible as it must seem to people who were alive to see it, it appears the CPC's position has been historically vindicated. The USSR stood rigid and was snapped apart -- The PRC bent, and so remains, changed but intact.

I'm as surprised as anyone that there hasn't been any sign of a swift backlash to these efforts behind closed doors, but I fear this gives our enemies too much credit. As others have commented, the Republican party is now controlled by people who have been steeped in the paranoid conspiratorial ideology fostered by past generations of conservative leadership in the hopes of maintaining a pliant base. They actually believe the absurd, ahistorical, contradictory things they say. I think it's more likely the doddering remnants of the old guard are too complacent, too accustomed to having their way with things, to react quickly enough to maintain this propaganda apparatus.

Perhaps it's premature to say, but what we know so far paints a stark picture of the paralytic culture within US government institutions. Nobody will twitch a muscle without word from on high, and all it takes is a few white kids who feel entitled to act with impunity to punch right through. Meanwhile, the vast liberal public simply cannot accept what their lying eyes show them, because it would require that they accept that all the excuses for decades of inaction, of political impotence, was just kayfabe.

No matter how many contrasting positions one is interposing, the term used is still dialectics. However I encourage you to follow this brain worm as far as you can because I genuinely love when sincere philosophical inquiry dances on the threshold of the occult, my personal subject of historical obsession. Please present your theses on the higher geometric forms of dialectics. Perhaps a connection can be found with regular 3 dimensional polygonal forms.

is F1 still bad? I haven't watched since that big rules change a few years back failed to make things more competitive. Maybe I should peek in on Formula E.

I've seen this exact headline about over a dozen tech companies in the last few months, particularly in the games industry. How do we make sense of it? I am not accustomed to seeing companies that are doing well, as they all claim to be, discharging swathes of their labor force.

 

Newspapers, blogs, periodicals, whatever you like as long as it's not video, podcasts, or posts. Ideally, with an RSS feed, but beggars can't be choosers.

 

I'm recommitting myself to reading The Big One. I've known a number of comrades who had companion guide books to the works of Marx and Engels, to help interpret and contextualize their body of works. Have any of you read such a book that can help me navigate these essays?
