Yes but there’s different levels of violence. Some countries had more violent deadly revolutions than others. Maybe India is the main example, yes too many people died but it wasn’t on the level of some other revolutions and wars.

Your taxes go to trump and his minions raping children. It’s a lot more expensive now that epstein was killed.

Yes of course, doesn’t mean the leaders of the faction who win the civil war will install them.

I mean it’s the classic revolutionary’s dilemma – does bringing the system down, which causes incredible amounts of death and suffering for the poor, worth it in the long run? IMHO it never is, because the system always finds the most painful and evil ways to go down, with no guarantee the next system is any better.

Ideally the system itself improves over time like we saw happen in the 20th century in a lot of other countries, and social democracy takes over peacefully. But sometimes the capitalists won’t let that happen and insist on a tragic and violent decline instead.

I guess my point is they used to have a lot more power in China than they do now. It didn’t have to be this way, the oil billionaires and automobile CEO could have found a way to monopolize renewables and EV technology at home too. They just operated off of fear and laziness instead of bravery and industriousness.

But that’s what im saying – high tarrifs doesn’t skow down technological innovation in China, of course they’re way ahead of us now on EV technology. Yes, they did it to keep power over their United Statesian subjects, by keeping us in the dark they have more control over us. China didn’t slow down at all because of that.

But that’s just handing China the advantage without a fight, it doesn’t slow them down at all. That’s why it makes no sense.

That makes no sense lmao

They vote on it when they do the budget, MTA board decides.

Well, I suppose it makes perfect sense that a French person would consider “more French than French” to be a positive reputation.

You know before i read the post i was thinking of news or podcasts created in AI. But yeah music would be cool too.

Well, I believe Quebecois has a reputation for being “more French than French”. For example, they refuse to say “le parking” like they do in France. Quebecois insists on using “le stationnement”.

Maybe that’s what they meant about Norst and Norwegian?
