Fucking shit, this mass grave thing is intense. I absolutely cannot fathom being a father who found their childs body bound up in a mass grave. The absolute hatred I would feel for every zionist and their libcuck friends prancing around on twitter celebrating dropped bombs on my neighbors.

I sit thousands of miles away and it still eats at me.

Okay, I can get behind this idea if it means building the things in space because we actually have the ability to extract resources from asteroids or something. The science side of me is hella tickled by that.

I mean, logically, we probably have everything on our planet to sustain ourselves. We would never actually need to do that. But still, tickled by that idea.

Can we all get on the same page that this is pretty dumb no matter who pitches it? I don’t need the equivalent of ICBMs but for a book or whatever.

bUT IsNt cHiNa CoLlaPSinG!?!?

I’m doing a genocide, but only because it’s your fault.

-> Israel apparently!?!?

Thats freaking awesome! More nuclear!

This is true. Our industry is not growing. But according to that graph, since the US is using half the electricity of China, and China has four and a quarter times as many people. On a per person basis, the United States is still using twice as much electricity per person as China is.

The United States chose their industry. They build military. China is actually manufacturing things, not just for themselves, but for the world. I’m happy to see that China continues to grow and I’m happy to see more Belt and Road initiatives spreading.

Eh, as a Marxist-Leninist living in the United States, I understand that we’re using way too much electricity as it is.

I mean, China is still a growing and developing country. In theory, it makes perfect sense for their electricity use to skyrocket right now. But the United States basically already grew and short of population growth. We really don’t need any more electricity.

I mean, we still heat a lot of houses with gas that we can turn over to electricity, and we still have too many gas cars that we can convert to EVs. So there is something there.

There are way too many single family homes that are like three to five bedrooms with only two people living there because either they’re expecting kids and haven’t had them yet or their kids have all moved out or whatever. And they still keep the whole place exceptionally cold or hot or whatever they want independent of the climate they live in.

So I guess that is to say that this graph is not unexpected. China is still growing and their electricity use is going up and that makes sense. But there’s really no reason for the United States electricity use to go up. Unless somebody has a compelling reason otherwise.

Am I reading something wrong? When I go to the source, they have different numbers. But it looks like it was last reported in December?

You did an absolutely fantastic job of talking about the nuance of the situation. Well done.

However

I would really like to know what an international cheeseboard looks like. Sounds tasty!

Nsfw is what i meant, it should blur by default!

I didn’t mean to imply you weren’t. I was just noting in context :)

I vote yes, but just make sure to keep them under not safe or work tags and blurred out so people don’t get surprised by them.

It’s important to keep reporting on the terrible state of things. If we don’t talk about it, it won’t get addressed.

My 2c

It is a little bit of clickbait, but he actually says that you need to use Graphene OS to be more secure, and that Android with Google is basically the same as Apple.

This is a fantastic resource comrade. Thank you. Off the top of your head, do you know of a place I can find more textbooks or classroom-like material from communist countries available in the US? Either in print or digital?

Ah jeez thta would be dumb.

Okay so serious question, what will they replace it with?

I know about openkylin linux, and if that gets used more i’d be happy lol. year of the linux desktop!

But doesn’t huawei make harmony os for desktops? or is that just mobile and cars?

Fuck yeah, China, fuck yeah.

That makes me so happy. Exciting times are ahead!

Remember everyone, when a liberal tells you that you’re cherry picking, and just citing your own sources, and ignoring Wikipedia, and are biased… Just remember that they all do the exact same thing, even in their professional media.

As we still technically measure company’s success via revenue, and in a lot of ways we still measure progress with GDP, things like this still matter in the short run.

As China transitions into full socialism, I think that things like this will matter a lot less than simply resources and quality of life for employees.

We’re already starting to see China care less about GDP compared to other countries, although they’re still compared using GDP from a lot of sources, even internal to China. And while the success of companies is still dependent on profits, it’s still technically important that they have them.
