Yemen and Palestine are the things that bother me. With the Saudis and Israel being trade partners with China I have to wonder how it all goes down even if the US isn't able to keep propping them up. I guess it's too idealist to hope for a quick and satisfying victory, seems more like it will be a slow burn to solve complicated negotiations.
What's going on in Yemen? Is the war ending but in the favor of the Saudis? What's China's take on the Houthi and how's that situation meant to resolve?
I'm gonna start carrying one of my copies of Quotations from Mao in case any PLA paratroopers start landing.
My favorite Star Wars character
Shoot. It's my fault guys, I'm real sorry, I introduced them to the concept of bots.
Tried to print a bust of John Lennon but it came out as some random old guy :/
I hope they at least set up a bot to do it. Please don't tell me you're doing it all manually, go outside your family is worried about you.
Cool robot toy I got with some custom patches
Fan service sucks. Can't even watch Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex without gratuitous close-ups on the main character's ass. Kinda takes me out of it.
I've taken a page from the right and consistently toe the line to see how much I can get away with. Before they know it I'm posting Houthi music and taking selfies in front of my bookcase with Quotations from Mao in full view.
If this happened in China-- Oh, wait it wouldn't, because they're not backwards enough to still have monarchs.
Mods, start banning people for this. I'm tired of this fucking "lol gotcha" bullshit. We as marxists should know better than to joke about this and get people's hopes up. Now excuse me while I take a long drink of this glass of water while opening my news app.
I personally don't really get how someone reconciles materialism with religion, but why be an obnoxious atheist about it? I'd rather not exclude anyone because of my idealistic worldview; either I'm wrong and religion will exist for as long as humanity does (so what did I accomplish by being a dick about it?) or my way of thinking is correct and people are going to come around to that eventually, once the material conditions are right for people to no longer need religion.
