damn, it always surprises me how much staying power US propaganda has

Right? Literally all of it is so positive, yet all of our propaganda against China is so vile. Gives a pretty good picture of how much the Chinese government cares to brainwash peoples perceptions of the country even though their propaganda would be totally correct lol

The Utopian legends of Omelas inspire the whole world.

doesn't ursula k. leguin have a story about "omelas"? or does it predate her story/book

[-] Lyudmila@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

"The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" is an original story by Ursula K LeGuin, but it has inspirational roots in Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov and William James' essay, "The Moral Philosopher and the Moral Life"
