some lib posted:It also depends on who you poll. I hate to talk poo poo in another thread but if I did this in d&d, I'd have to eat another probe. is this guy out of his loving mind? he thinks the govt in china has the ability to forcibly marry off women who don't want to be? like they really think uyghers aren't people, is there anyone who wouldn't rise up in the face of such injustice? I seriously dunno how they think society works here in china, but the level of ignorance really blows my mind. I feel like you can just say anything about china, ignoring all logic, and people will just accept it. yeah that article is nuts. I especially love the quote from the eurasia group (doesnt sound evil at all) about how china went from the best to the worst response to covid. record numbers of infections, thousands of deaths in the west. hospitals and public health systems collapsing. but china is definately the worst. As a beijing resident, I admit some of the poo poo lately has been annoying, but I'm so thankful to the govt for keeping me safe. much better than the western stratagy of letting it rip.

HiroProtagonist posted:there are even quite a few leftists who equate adam smith to liberalism and don't quite realize what he actually wrote was (if not quite proto-leftist) much more akin to social democracy, with some outright hate towards those he viewed as looters of the commons (landlords). What he actually wrote on the invisible hand was a bunch of wishful thinking though. Like lol capitalists will not prefer to support domestic rather than foreign industry, actually. So they do not, as if led by an invisible hand, promote the public interest of their society.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:Not quite. The civilizing mission was more justified by Christianity. Early liberalism was very selective in its interests regarding who was entitled to liberal rights, to the point many didn't see any problem with slavery. In fact it was common to think of slavery as a means for a man (the master) to become truly liberated. Early liberals weren't even particularly bothered if they had a king, so long as the crown sat on an enlightened despot. Even French revolutionaries had to be dragged against their will to accepting republicanism because Louis could not cut it out with the treason.

It's pretty wild to see Ukraine panicking like this, I feel like their government has totally lost the plot and they're just throwing poo poo out there because their state is about to collapse I bet they're mad they gave up their nukes now tho

imagine prioritizing human lives over the economy. Just imagine. In fact, imagine seeing "the economy" as something that exists to serve humanity and not the other way around.

Crusader posted:capital demands death Translated into plain language, the burden not worth bearing at the expense of "the economy" is something like 3-5,000,000 Chinese lives. Cue up all the hand wringing about "rising Chinese nationalism" after Chinese people shockingly respond "hey what the gently caress shut the gently caress up you lunatics."
