This is an excellent thread. It's very accessible, gives a concise potted history, and a map to how Marxism got embedded into the west.

"A civilization stands on three pillars: the belief that there exists a truth accessible to reason, the belief that there exists a good distinct from evil, the belief that there exists a heritage to be transmitted." This interesting piece correctly identifies the enormous damage done by post-1968 French philosophers such as Foucault, Derrida, and Deleuze, whose ideas took root in American academia and have flowered in today's 'woke' progressive ideologies - queer theory, intersectionality, critical race theory and postcolonialism (eg drag, trans, BLM, and pro-Hamas antisemitism). But there is a deeper well from which those French thinkers themselves and first drank - Marx. ๐งต

@khrachvik @RockChartrand @ruthapur23535 @frogedev Nobody "got thrashed" or "ran away from you", you fucking half wit. There's just a limit on how much bullshit any one person can take.
You can't prove you have a functioning brain, never mind anything beyond that.
English
@RockChartrand @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @Rkstrn Hilarious how he's here chiming in on a more childish level because he got thrashed and ran away from me.
Every single time, mark.
Every. Single. Time.
Why are you so afraid of me? Is it because I can prove your entire identity is a fraud?
English
Every single argument against Communism is either a lie, confusion, or distortion.
Yes. Every single one.
Don't believe me? Try me.
English
@NineCato You don't need to worry about them.
They talk of "seizing the means of production" and "revolution", but in reality, they're too afraid to answer a phone call from an unknown number.
English
Communists always talk about โtakingโ as if all the things they need just fall out of the sky. Poor people need to work, like everyone else.
๐๐แต ๐๐๐๐@OrevaZSN
Weโre obsessed with the idea that poor people might take more than they need, but we rarely question why some wealthy people are never satisfied with what they already have.

@ruthapur23535 @frogedev @khrachvik @foremorebeers @RockChartrand Which ones? Why did you leave them for non-communist Australia?
English
@frogedev @Rkstrn @khrachvik @foremorebeers @RockChartrand Cause Iโve lived in communist countries

@ruthapur23535 @khrachvik @foremorebeers @RockChartrand @frogedev You have an imagination barrier.
What's stopping you from pooling your resources with other communists? Acquiring the means of production without violence or theft? Living communally? Cultivating wastelands?
You know, actually doing the things you want to impose onto others.
English
@Rkstrn @khrachvik @foremorebeers @RockChartrand @frogedev How would I practice communism in my own life?
If I seize the means of production without an army backing me up Iโd just get sent to a for profit prison and be forced to work all day for pennies.
Then Iโd have even less power over my own life and Iโd be getting extra exploited.
English
@ruthapur23535 @khrachvik @RockChartrand @frogedev That doesn't look like a voluntary exchange to me.
Meanwhile, communism looks like this:
English
@khrachvik @foremorebeers @RockChartrand @ruthapur23535 @frogedev It's you so-called communists that are the bitches.
You spend your lives enjoying the prosperity created by capitalism, while doing nothing but leech off your peers.
I'll bet that not a single one of you practises anything close to communism in your daily lives.
English
@foremorebeers @RockChartrand @Rkstrn @ruthapur23535 @frogedev Not my fault anti-communists are bitches, kid.
English
@Tim_The_Sandman @_vitalibertas_ I would agree with everything said here. Great advice throughout.
Add in OpenCode for terminal based coding, and you've got a very useable setup.
English
@_vitalibertas_ Thank you for this

I understand I'm heavily V-ram/GPU limited here, but what's the best local model and/or generative image model I could run on a lowly RTX 5060?
Can I run anything worth bothering with on this at all?
What are some good resources I should look at to start understanding what I 'm doing regarding this?

You have every right to know what your government is doing, and they have no right to know what you are doing.
That is why they are called public servants and we are called private citizens.
Instead, the relationship has been inverted. The state hides behind secrecy, classified files, and redactions while demanding total visibility into your finances, communications, movement, and behavior.
A society where the rulers live in privacy while the population lives under surveillance is the very definition of tyranny.
English
@khrachvik @RockChartrand @ruthapur23535 @frogedev If it was a coherent point, you would be able to state it clearly, which you have refused to do. Repeatedly.
If you give me something of substance, I will happily respond to it. Sea lion noises are not something I can rebut.
English
I didnโt say anything about you being afraid. I think youโre just very stupid, honestly, son.
Maybe slightly, as you seem to have run away from my point over and over, but Iโve yet to eliminate the possibility that your calling it word salad (even though it was about two basic sentences) means youโre just actually retarded.
The jury is still out.
English
@khrachvik @RockChartrand @ruthapur23535 @frogedev Yes, that's it, we're "scared of you". ๐คฃ
Maybe in the way people are scared of pigeons; dumb as a brick, but still able to spread disease.
Rock, save your sanity, mate. This guy is still having trouble with light switches, never mind coherent discussion.
English
Yeah, if you redefine capitalism so it has nothing to do with capital, itโs no longer capitalism. Itโs no longer the real world.
YOU are the one who insists on shifting definitions, because itโs more convenient for you.
I think itโs because youโre afraid on some level. The same way I think this is cope because youโre afraid of me. An excuse you can hide behind, as a conversation would expose you and your inability to address a single real Communist point that isnโt your childish straw men almost immediately. The reverse would be true if you werenโt.
I think youโre afraid to check and see if you got marked. And hence your fear of me. You know Iโll prove it.
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand That's 7 posts in a row now containing absolutely nothing of substance.

@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand What point did you make? You were so incoherent, I was unable to decipher what the hell you were talking about.
Rather than restate your point in a clear, concise manner, you've spent endless posts talking about irrelevant minutia.
How does that help the discussion, lad?
English
Youโre STILL running away from the point, and deflecting with increased desperation and silly attacks on topics you know nothing about (the most powerful political entity in the world is the Communist Party of China, which kind of proves your level of retardation and belief in nonsense on what Communists are).
And continue imitating my speech patterns. I must have touched a nerve and made you feel small, so youโre trying to do the same to me. But I got no intention of making you feel small, kid. On the contrary, Iโm trying to get you to be a man.
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand Nice bit of deflection there, kid.
An "old man" that still endorses communism is clearly intellectually stunted.
Try answering my questions, or at least clearly stating your point so I can respond to it, lad.
English
Youโre still doing it, kid. Itโs clearly you imitating me, as you only started after a while and then came up with an excuse.
I just donโt get it. You spend so much time lying. And then trying to argue against shit people never said.
All because youโre scared to address what I said?
English

@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand I called you kid because you have the mental capacity of a toddler.
Are you suggesting you *do* care about consent? Do you believe the state needs my consent to take my resources, or not?
What point? State it clearly and coherently and I will respond to it, kid.
English
That right there is your inability to deal with shit.
Then you made something up, implying consent doesnโt โmatterโ.
Youโre STILL doing it. Youโre terrified of my point and canโt address it.
Now youโre adding talking like I do. I call you son because youโre obviously young and Iโm an old man. Trying to call an old man โkidโ in order to emulate him is bad form, son.
Now, if you can man up and actually address my point instead of running away from it and making things up, I will stop calling you son. Little positive reinforcement, you know?
Now.. can you actually address my point? Or are you still scared, son?
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand You didn't make any points, kid. You just rambled a bunch of nonsense that barely read as coherent sentences 50% of the time.
Be concise.
Why doesn't consent matter to you?
Why do you think that using violence against peaceful people to meet your needs, is acceptable?
English
You are now twisting to get out of my point by trying to deflect to some attack on a made up version of me.
I already made a post. You ran away from it by calling it โword salad.โ
Thatโs a dismissal, your brain being cowardly because it canโt handle the implications of my point. Subconsciously like.
You need to MAKE yourself think critically, son. Otherwise, youโll default to dogma. (Itโs the way weโre trained to think, based in rote memorization, which isโฆ completely off topic, one of the main reasons weโre so easily manipulated as a people. But thatโs a whole nother bag of bananas.)
Actually take your time, read what I said, try to understand it, rather than dismiss it and hide behind random shit you make up like me โespousing ideology.โ
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand What did I "pretend you think"? I can only go by the words you have written.
Prove me wrong. Explain why you (or agents acting on your behalf) have a legitimate claim to my property. Walk me through your thought process in a concise, coherent manner.
English
@Rkstrn @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand Son, your entire little spiel was making shit yup and pretending I think it.
Do you actually not notice that this is what youโre doing or that youโre doing it in order to not have to respond to my actual point?
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand You may be malevolent. You may just be naive. Either way, you have been entirely incapable of explaining why your desires supersede everyone else's rights.
This is an impossible task because despite what your failed ideology has taught you, they simply don't.
English
@khrachvik @ruthapur23535 @frogedev @RockChartrand Again, more word salad that says nothing.
I came to my position via logic and reason. I care about concepts you reject such as consent, and non-aggression.
You claim to reject dogma and ideology, while espousing the exact opposite. Your words do not match your actions.
