“That’s the sound of pending civil unrest … you shut the fuck up with your boos.” -Dave Chapelle

Shit is at the same time hilarious and so dissonant.

Dude, the guardián does a shit job at interpreting Xi. Fuck that newspaper.

But Xi does teach this lil boy a lesson.

Edit: @Aria posted this video with the actual transcript, since the guardian is such a lazy publication.

Drug regulation for sure. But no criminalization for use. Substance prohibitions have always had horrible effects. It’s beyond a shadow of a doubt that criminalizing substance abuse only creates worse methods of consumption. Regulation is highly agreeable. It’s good to provide safe ways for consuming drugs. Especially for addicts.

Not all drugs are created equal, entheogens have provable medical and therapeutic use. Their use should be encouraged for healthy adults with proper education on the matter. A license for use, so to speak. Same for cannabidiols.

Coke, opiate powder and methamphetamine should be tightly regulated, clandestine synthesis should be illegal, but in organic form, coca use should be completely ignored and legal like coffee. You aren’t going to die by chewing coca leaves unless you make yourself like a 10k salad. Alcohol and nicotine are some of the worst drugs and should be highly regulated as today.

Ultimately, it is impossible to control people’s substance use or abuse, and when the grip is too tight on them, you make criminals out of the people, their suffering and automatically create black markets for lumpen proles. People become addicts because they are vulnerable and in need and they will provide their vice on either side of the law. The lowest bar is for the state to provide safe products and contexts for users to reduce harm and encourage healing.

I wouldn’t engage with them without sourcing your claims, and if they source claims, breakdown their bias. Esp if it’s RFA or NED/wiki related. I would also not debate these kinds of people when they’re clearly so brainwashed and willfully ignorant. A debate then is about who is more “convincing” more than who is correct. It becomes a mind game more than a conversation. Don’t fall for their dumb mind games. Don’t participate.

The worst part about being a leftist is that we always have to do 10x more homework than any lib. So, you can’t sound unsure or humble about what you know. It’s provable that the genocide is a fabrication. No doubt about it. And America imprisons millions of black people. It doesn’t have to hide it because the status quo doesn’t give a f-ck about black people. It also has concentration camps on the border. No need to hide it. As long as we can criminalize a minority population, liberals will concede to their oppression. America also has glorified concentration camps with casinos called reservations. No one gives a shit. Regardless of what China says or does, the facts are in their favor, and american liberals have zero authority with which to talk about genocide when they actively consent and participate in it.

No offense but that lib “friend” or whatever is a complete loser and a hollow person if they are so sinophobic.

“Only evil Chinese are capable of hiding genocide. We’re too good and much better than the y*llows. Our institutions our superior.”

Is pretty much what that person was saying. And it’s a pretty horrible thing to say.

Libs thinking freedom literally means dying of exposure in the street. And that being able to say the absolute most bigoted thing on earth is better than guaranteeing food, shelter, education and clothing for all.

The utter state of idealism is a philosophical black hole that devours any possibility of discussion about providing material goods for people to enrich or maintain healthy lives.

I see liberalism as an extension of Platonism and Christianity after that. It’s a continuation of the belief that the ideal world(words/ideas/concepts aka heaven) is objectively logical or pure and gives birth to the material world. That’s where a lot of this idiotic drivel comes from about left-Puritanism. It’s better to hold the “correct” ideal belief(anarchism) than to practice an imperfect/incomplete system that must function in the real world. It’s better to lose and be pure than to win and make mistakes along the way.

It’s also the reason capitalism functions. If we stop pretending money isn’t made up and that the bourgeois can’t actually work 300x or even 2x more or better than their employees, or that landlords don’t actually do anything, or that infinite growth of wealth is nonsense then it all logically comes crashing down. The only way to maintain the liberal status quo is by denying the material world and it’s constraints.

Yeah. Pacifism is unfortunately futile with nazis

I love how sick Americans have to tighten their belt to give weapons to a hopeless endeavor. It’s like, “honey, kids, I know we’re short on food and medicine, but i gotta go gamble our money away. We’ll score big this time!” Totally delusional.

Yeah, fuck Reddit. I can’t believe they banned GenZhou. A niche educational sub. Wtf.
