i have a disgusting amount of the plotly api memorized

You’re right, it is much worse. The goal is to breed them as quickly as possible, use them for their wool while they are useful for it, and kill them much younger than their lifespan for their meat. I think it would be a kindess to slowly stop that torturous cycle.

This is an anti-historical take. You can disagree with ML methods or ideology while still acknowledging where they have had material success in bringing about wins for the working class.

it’s definitely not a movie best enjoyed sober

What a legend. Hexapodia as the key insight.

socialists have not abandoned the most universally recognized leftist symbol lmao

He pulled this type of shit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeju_uprising.

We’re splitting hairs here but he was a US puppet that happily killed his opposition.

It’s perfectly fine to use “whataboutism” to counter tired talking points that do nothing to advance actual discourse. Like yea, people died in capitalist countries too, how is that in any way advancing a discussion about these differing economic systems. Go a step further, ask why these things happened in communist countries. Think about how they differ from similar situations in a capitalist country. Engage with the ideas and then we can have honest discourse.

It doesn’t mean literally eat them…

Look, I won’t argue with you on semantics. You’re free to disagree with the common definition of liberalism that socialists use. It’s really just a convenient term for people that are pro-capitalist. It’s not intended to be a nuanced term, and I doubt most reasonable socialists would directly equate Republican fascists with Democratic progressives, even if they see both as problematic.

That’s fine, just understand that you’re using a US-centric framework that differs from what socialists mean when they say “libs”. From our perspective, if you’re pro-western-capitalism (and thus pro-neoliberalism) you’re a lib. Democrats, Republicans, doesn’t matter.

Between Libgen and SciHub I’m interested in hearing an example of what you can’t find out there.

I’m on the left in this picture and I don’t like it.
