“That’s just automation/ai/technology stop being Luddite. People losing jobs is good because accelerationism.”

Yeah, in all likelihood they maybe already signed the new OGL. Who knows.

that’s just accelerationism.

Kim is wrong about this on art. Art for its own sake is important and is one of the reasons for the revolution, to free art from the constrains of capitalism and needing to make money.

If you, at 35, will date an 18 yo, what’s stopping you from dating a 17 or 16 yo other than legality? You clearly already find people that age attractive.

Power dynamics.

Even if they do, the options are basically be spied on by the Chinese or by their own governments. In which case, your own governments can do a lot lore damage to you, personally. So go for Chinese phones - what can they do to you?

Wow. That… I have no fucking words.

Quebec is a mixed bag. It is clearly ahead of Anglophone Canada in many ways (which you experienced). But it also carries a lot of French baggage. It is very racist towards visible minorities, like the recent ban on "religious iconography" which prevents Sikhs and Muslims from wearing turbans and hijabs etc. Just think of it as North American France as compared to the rest of Canada, which is North American UK.

On healthcare, there's a big push to privatize what little there is, btw. Canadian healthcare is like Swiss cheese - it's full of holes. It doesn't cover mental health, dental, vision or prescription drug costs. There's also incredibly long waiting lines and a huge disparity in the availability of care outside of major metropolitan areas, especially in indigenous aras. All this is because of neoliberalism cutting down the gains and momentum from the time when healthcare was fought for, obviously. But the capitalists want it to be like the US, so they blame it on the "government".

There's a lot more I could say, but yeah, Kkkanada is slightly better than Amerikkka in some ways, but that's nothing to be proud of.
