A good litmus test would be asking about Domenico Losurdo.

Let me know if you need help with Sway, i am by no means a power user but i do have a somwhat developed config file.

[-] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Great, i personally run Sway because it's really easy to configure and superbly stable. Other than the flashy animations Hyprland is not that good, i tried it for a while and went back to Sway even before all the light came out of the developer.

its kind of a brutal dialectic and the optics work against us but AES workers have to be worked to the bone to be able to catch up and survive, which is why many people take China for an "hyper capitalist" nation.

Y'all think americans would do something if their gov nuked Iran?

Labour is not the only thing capitalists need from the workers, they're also at the same time commodity consumers. Even when reaching an advanced level of automation, the capitalists will need people to purchase their products which is where UBI enters the picture. Interestingly, the "UBI" class could actually strike by not consuming stuff.

Anyways i think you're just overthinking, the UBI in the imperial core is only a labour subsidy.

It's a terrible idea which is why i support it in the imperial core. Less money for terrorism abroad, slighly better living conditions for the people which also means less people join the terrorist military.

[-] bennieandthez@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 day ago

Really depends in the specific conditions of the nation. In a vacuum it would be great if the spoils of production were shared among the population through a base UBI, however can an underdeveloped nation afford to do that instead of reinvesting in advancing the productive forces? How would an underdeveloped nation catch up with the advanced imperialist nations if they implement a 4 day work week? Again, in a vacuum it sounds great but an underdeveloped nation has to act with a sense of urgency, it has to rush development to catch up to the advanced imperialist nations and you cant do that by stagnating productivity with a reduced working week. In this context, i do not support neither policy in the global south, we are simply not in a position to implement them.

Paradoxically, i do support both policies in the imperial core because they almost certainly weaken the imperial core and allows the rest of the world to catch up. And as they say here, caballo que alcanza, gana. ( Horse that catches up wins, roughly means that catching up means you won because the momentum is on your side.)

The police massacred more than a hundred people in one of the poorest neighborhoods in rio de janeiro. The operation was directed by the bolsonarista governor of the province without notifying central goverment.
