Thanks. I should know, I paid for it.

No thanks, I'd rather entrust the security of the end of civilization to floppy discs.

So wages are up 40-50% as well, right?

Right?

Wait, what. I thought Biden was riding that "kill all Palestinians" train all the way to his grave. Or is the feud about Netanyahu not being aggressive and murderous enough to wrap this up before October?

China is the only country which currently has both the means and motivation to do something about that. In fact, they are doing something about it.

I can't for the life of me distinguish neoliberal economics from fascist economics.

Copying my comment from elsewhere in this thread:

Individual encounters may have to do with the declining mental faculties of geriatrics, but the superstructure of the capitalist class (who are the ones pushing the stories about foreign interference and terrorists and red/yellow/brown scare all that pro-empire propaganda) that must change. Voting in yet another capitalist sponsored imperialist drum beater (the only type of candidate that's allowed to run for election) who's a bit younger than these should-be seniors home residents won't change anything at all. Pointing the finger at the advanced age of elected officials is a distraction, simple as that.

A magazine by and for the capitalist class. Soldiers on the battlefield are but tools on a production line.

The Economist, a journal that speaks for the British millionaires, is pursuing a very instructive line in relation to the war.

It's hard to annex a nuclear armed country that has a well trained military, especially one that knows what the capitalist empire is up to.

In terms of dramas you may find In the Name of the People interesting.

For documentaries, I've recently seen mentions of How Yukong Moved the Mountains, although I haven't yet found a place to watch it.

There's also a large collection of leftist movies which includes fictional dramas and documentaries about USSR and PRC over on hexbear. https://hexbear.net/post/9615

Edit: CGTN also has some good documentaries on modern and historical events.

All the marketing of VPNs over the last five years has really confused people as to what they are good for.

"Makes you private"? Private against what exactly? Does that mitigation match my threat model and use case? But that doesn't fit into a fifteen second YouTube ad bit, and most people don't do any further research.
