Raskolnikov38 posted:is there a definition of statues i'm not aware of or capable of finding or does NK have a thriving trade in marble works they work in bronze mostly https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35569277 quote:Founded in 1959, it caters for North Korea's considerable domestic propaganda needs. The huge statues, murals and banners you see being dutifully applauded at military processions - as well as the poster images that surround North Korean daily life - are all made by its 4,000 staff.

i think we should stop loving with north korea and let the natural democratizing forces of industrial capitalism take root in the hermit kingdom. just my $0.02. no need to continue punishing them for leaving the capitalist world system a billion years ago.

Genuine question, what was with that China arresting Marxist students for wanting Marxism? I heard they got set up by the CIA, ties had to be what 5/6 yesrs ago but something made me remember that today and idk maybe I've just become more favorable to China since than but seeing all recent made up bullshit did make me wonder what the deal was with that

"Haha, imagine how much worse we would be under the UPA and the Khangress" - Clueless bloke pawning the family plate off to a cash for gold trader. Thank god the Indian middle class' utter lack of political organizing won't deepen the current predicament any further.

Modiji sold off our national airlines for pennies on the dollar so he could buy bitchin' new planes. You expect him to stay home and not amble over and hug other leaders in front of the camera?

LionYeti posted:Is it strange that I look at China and am jealous of a government that does things? What you need to be jealous of is not the CCP but the Chinese people and China itself not in some stupid liberal sense, but because ~despite~ not being a liberal democracy, the CCP knows that their authority does not stem from the Mandate of Jefferson or even brute force but from having at least a general sense of approval from the Chinese people overall, who are in small and large groups willing and able to actually gently caress poo poo up if the government doesn't work for them. the real difference between America now and the America of the New Deal Era is not simply that american capital has won a greater share of power, but that structurally, capital just really doesnt need the consent of the american people at all anymore

the best part is when american media acts like the chinese government giving people things that they like is proof that their grip is weakening since a truly legitimate government would just constantly tell everyone to gently caress off

I would like to remind you that if modi has said something he has put a lot of thought into it. Its not like he deleted 80% of the cash in the economy overnight or anything. PS: The indian left is the reason why we went from having a nuclear powered electrical infrastructure plan with renewables filling in the gap to the current state where modi's financial backers are shipping in coal from australia to sell at a markup to State owned power utilities.
