Want can mean a state of lack, not just an animal desire.

…As opposed to AI being poisoned by the propaganda being fed it by the techbros who made it? Boo fuckin hoo.

I sympathize with the Vanguard

My condolences.

the average person has no idea what the fuck is going on and a nation like the US is simply too large (in many ways) for direct democracy

Exhibit A of why the US shouldn’t be a singular nation. If it can’t be run without bullshit, then don’t do that. Just don’t. Time has tested and proven that it was a bad idea.

a small group of people who can devote all their time and energy to the political and logistical needs is probably necessary to transition from this nightmare to FALGSC

Who says we have to convert an existing nation? The US is a failure. Do away with it. Start the FALGSC ball rolling without trying to first occupy the corpse of a failed monster.

here’s lots of problems with Vanguardism, not least of which is the ease of installing a Stalin or Kim, but I think most AuthComs of that type are sincere idealogues. They’re leftists without faith in humanity.

And there I disagree. If you’re okay with dictatorship of any sort for any reason, you’re not actually a leftist, you don’t actually care about the people around you or mankind as a whole. You’re still playing kiddy little political games that have failed us time and time again for as long as recorded history. We need to get over it already!

I think you’re correct on that. In my eyes there are people that are out for the good of all mankind, and there are people who are willing to throw some portion of their own kind under the bus to get ahead. The latter are constantly masquerading as the former to gain power and influence, and they’ll wear whatever color they think you’ll vote for to get it.

ML aren’t even leftists, they’re pro-dictatorship. It’s just right wing bullshit wearing leftist colors.

I have no idea why you’re trying so hard to talk about anything except the literal actual thing we’re talking about. This conversation is over.

The discrimination is on the basis of race. That doesn’t make it right, that doesn’t mean that’s the actual reason they’re doing it in their minds. You’re adding unnecessary context to the base word instead of adding the appropriate expansions to the base word to make it fit the desired context.

You just love moving those goalposts so you can keep having a leg to stand on.

I don’t love you doing it. Ta-ta.

“let’s look at racism”

brings up historic examples of systemic, institutionalized racism, omitting every single personal act of racism in history

You expect me to take this seriously as a rebuttal?

Because it’s not powerism, it’s racism.
