Typo posted:I don't think that's gonna happen but that's certainly within the realm of possibility of course it’s not going to happen in ten years but eventually everybody dies and if xi continues to consolidate power under him officially and informally eventually china and the rest of the world as well will have to endure major rear end an established and working succession mechanism was one of the only good things about the chinese communist party

jBrereton posted:have you heard of the concept of "a ghetto"/"the shoah" being a minority in the medieval times sucked in general but lol if you’re comparing that to the ghetto as invented by nazi germany like, 10-15th centuries saw 400k jewish deaths due to persecution in europe, over five centuries to compare that to the brutal efficiency of modern ideological regimes is just idiotic

rudatron posted:but you've got to compare relative population though. for medieval europe, 400k is a lot, and it's still a lot today. and the thirty years war is still up there, as far as destructive conflicts in europe (8 million dead) you’re comparing literally five centuries with 30 years in one post here medieval europe grew from 30 million to about 100 million in those five centuries none of this disproves my point that it’s incredibly absurd to suggest there is any equivalency between medieval ghettos and modern ideologically based ghettos/concentration camps

every smac leader is pretty creepy and authoritarian if you think about it because like even the most “democratic” oriented ones end up getting longevity treatment to live and rule their factions with their loyal minions for hundreds of years

Pener Kropoopkin posted:Consumerism is a natural outcome of the cramped conditions in urban living. What else are you going to do, expand your home? The ability to consume isn't antithetical to Marxism either, since liberation from material need is sort of the point. The actual issue is one of efficiencies and ethics in resource distribution. Are people in the laboring classes, countryside, or foreign countries deprived because of an overabundance available to urban middle and upper classes? If the answer is yes then there's a problem. lol
