At what point does CS2 just start needing to simulate an economy, straight up, in order to make proper sense of the land use and transportation models

TBH it'll probably just go full neolib by asserting that the fart apps economy can materialize high opportunity cost items like food and oil out of thin air because the fart app economy makes a lot of money with low costs

I think when the dudes second manga got posted that whole thread got a lot of bans and permas because yeah it was straight naked kids.

Berserk is definitely a big thing in manga, and a lot of works can trace ideas (like dark souls) from it. But the author was not above board and definitely was hosed in the head in many ways (including drawing kids in ways that's not ok in any form).

VVV really dude why do you have to post something you know is gonna get hammered

ok so this is an interesting point to discuss.

why do you think america is in an end of history phase? why assume a Fukuyama state?

theres plenty of goons ITT that aren’t computer touchers: hoot works in a factory, skull.gif works as a restaurant bus boy, Willa does CPA stuff, In Training works at a theater attendant, and I work as a civil servant in public sector for infrastructure

but even so, why assume all the twitter face bookers are completely inoculated in an end of history bubble boy bubble? that’s very liberal and anti Marxist

the imperial core is eating itself and the premium consumer must be consumed too

if u have a real job, which is to say ur not a komputer kulak or an ad man or whatever useless appendix on society, then im not talking about u. simple as.

to move on to the other thing, the idea that america will suddenly slip and fall and become afghanistan is a pipe dream. short of a revolution or a war on domestic soil america will have enough wealth and power to ensure treats for the upper classes for decades to come or longer. the ruling class will always need support and compliance from the rest of society. the way they ensure that is through bribes for the upper class and police violence for the lower. that upper class is being squeezed of its lower ranks and that will probably go back and forth but there are always going to be people willing to step into their shoes and there will always be times where its in bourgeois interests to support the middle class again. to bring it back to the keyboard cowboys the ruling class is going to want maximum automation so there's always a seat at the table for techbros.

this isnt end of history poo poo, its the nature of global politics where everyone eats from different sides of the same trough. the only things that will dislodge the system are revolution or war, same as it ever was throughout human history. i think we have enough power projection left in the tank to keep wars outside our borders for the foreseable future, and lol at an anticapitalist revolution happening here any time soon.

ultimately i see america declining into a mid-tier social democracy over the next couple-few decades in order to reassert domestic stability

you talk about the incentives that the bourgeoisie will dole out to retain control as if they are abstract manifestations of the capitalist class' conscious decisions. but all of these carrots and sticks cost money and resources, channeled through ideologically-aligned social systems. it doesnt matter how big capital is if it cant keep growing, and the american empire is contracting greatly as of late. and it doesnt even have to reach a full collapse state, it just needs to fall sufficiently behind china to be incapable of supporting an industrial economy without being taken into china's orbit.

i agree that an anti-capitalist revolution in the next couple decades is basically not gonna happen. more likely there's gonna be collapse into regional warlords and kleptostates for a little while before actual revolution is possible. but the idea that, with all the issues being brought on by climate change, the u.s. does not have it in them to return to any kind of actual social democracy before turbofascism and/or balkanization

I don’t think the ride is going to be that easy for America, it is true the rich and powerful will be fine but the squeeze is going to be on everyone on down, the system needs something to feed on.

There isn’t going to be a soft move to social democracy, it is going to be a lot more messy.
