  • It's pretty good I think.

    The only criticism I have personally is -assuming you want to be realistic on those points- a feudal system wouldn't be able to deploy the industrial capacity to make things like spacecrafts and mechanized infantry on a large scale.

    Feudal forces and relations of production are centered around agricultural labor in the countryside by serfs tied to their lord's land meanwhile guilds are early bourgeois operations that the nobility keeps around because they are necessary for their manufacturing needs but never hesitate to violently repress if they become too powerful.

    Furthermore, feudal nobility would probably suppress the kind of automation necessary for industrial mass production if a guild tries to develop any because a bourgeoisie with even the simplest actual factories would quickly overtake the wealth and influence of feudal lords with their inefficient serfdom, thereby forcing the lords to either abandon their fiefdom and become a bourgeois or be overthrown.

    So by the time a society becomes able to go to space, the bourgeoisie would have long taken over and the society would by firmly capitalist, probably even late stage capitalist.

    consortiumnews.com On Neo-Nazi Influence in Ukraine

    A short history of neo-Nazism in Ukraine in response to some who say, "There is no evidence that Nazism has substantial influence in Ukraine." Joe Lauria reports.  By Joe Lauria Special to Consortium News The U.S. relationship witƒh Ukrainian fascists began after the Second World War. Dur

    On Neo-Nazi Influence in Ukraine

    The U.S. relationship with Ukrainian fascists began after the Second World War. During the war, units of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN-B) took part in the Holocaust, killing at least 100,000 Jews and Poles.

    Mykola Lebed, a top aide to Stepan Bandera, the leader of the fascist OUN-B, was recruited by the C.I.A. after the war, according to a 2010 study by the U.S. National Archives.

    The government study said, “Bandera’s wing (OUN/B) was a militant fascist organization.” Bandera’s closest deputy, Yaroslav Stetsko, said: ““I…fully appreciate the undeniably harmful and hostile role of the Jews, who are helping Moscow to enslave Ukraine…. I therefore support the destruction of the Jews and the expedience of bringing German methods of exterminating Jewry to Ukraine….”

    The study says: “At a July 6, 1941, meeting in Lwów, Bandera loyalists determined that Jews ‘have to be treated harshl

  • I was already thinking something like that, that China had tricked the west into thinking that China had gone down the path of the late Soviet Union under Gorbachev and convinced them that the CPC realy did become revisionist and they just had to wait and slightly nudge things along and the CPC would come crashing down sooner rather than later, and forced western capitalists to hand over productive forces and tech be exploiting the fact that because of the way capitalism work, capitalists can't afford to pass up on a new market opening.

    But it's very validating to see someone else come to the same conclusion.

  • Almost all pieces ever written about the "Uyghur genocide" go back to this one "bad dude" Adrian Zenz if you follow the chain of sources back to their origins. And both of the articles you liked have him as source, not just one.

    The reason it's so bad is because Adrian Zenz isn't merely biased, he's a known liar. He's a fraud who pretends to be an expert on China despite not speaking a single word of any of the languages just because he's been to China a single time over 10 years ago. He is being referenced despite all that by CIA financed medias (such as the BBC via USAID) because his lies are exactly the kind of things western bourgeois want us to think about China.

    Your comparing Dessalines pointing out that your sources cite Zenz to you pointing out that some of his links go to X is misguided at best, Musk isn't the author of what is written on these X posts, Zenz is the author of the lies your sources tells.

  • No one is pretending it isn't. But the fact that it is pointed doesn't automatically make it false. You are rejecting sources on little more than vibes here.

  • There is no such thing as unbiased sources buddy. If someone tells you a source is unbiased, they are either lying to you or don't understand how biases work.

  • Extremely critical support for the European national bourgeoisie in their struggle against the US based transnational bourgeoisie.

  • I don't know if this is the "original" audiobook, all I can tell you is that this is a pirated audible audiobook I torrented a while ago.

    I think you should start it. I've heard only good things being said about it.

    Hello everyone.

    I started to post audiobooks of The Culture series on Tankietube, split into 15-ish minutes bite size parts. And I just posted part 1 of chapter 1 of The Player of Games (Yes, I know it's the second book, I'll be posting the books in an order I've seen recommended instead of publishing order). I already have 5 of these ready that I will be posting ASAP, and many more on the way.

    I tried my best to cut in places that wouldn’t be too awkward and I put some pretty background as video just to not have just nothing or a static image. What do you think?

  • Most of the time in math, you just put the symbols you want to multiply without anything between them, the multiplication is implicit, or if you really want to make it explicit, you put a dot or a cross. The only time you would use an * is when programming.

  • My take on socialists presence on mainstream vs federated social media is that we should have our "main" social media spaces on the fediverse while maintaining a presence on mainstream social media to make agitprop and draw more peoples in.

  • Time to download the videos you care about and move to PeerTube.

    I just found this short but very detailed report on the collapse of the Ukrainian front.

    It explains in details how and why the front collapse and what that means for both Russia and Ukraine.
