“Death to America” is like our version of “and peace be with you.” It’s a nice phrase to say at the end of every statement.

Yeah this is why I didn’t do great with programming in college. I didn’t find any part of it interesting.

Yeah and you wouldn’t believe how many slurs they scream during an average game

Nah, they don’t watch that either. They’re very detached and only watch football or movies with Humphrey Bogart. My best guess is they felt some kind of resentment their whole lives because they were always the poorest ones out of their siblings. All my aunts and uncles formed businesses or got moderately wealthy, whereas I grew up on the lower middle side of that spectrum. And that turned into standard American racism.

no, just very idiosyncratic white American racists. I don’t even know where they got it from. My grandparents weren’t racists and my parents never listened to Rush Limbaugh or anything.

yeah this should be the immediate next step. The kid shouldn’t feel punished. It shouldn’t be a “you’re not allowed because I said so.” Kids can be smart and might be able to understand why Roblox is exploitative.

At least this is a better reason to take a way a kid’s video game. My parents banned me from certain games/movies because they had positive depictions of black people.

Was it not already working? I’ve been using a PS5 controller on Steam for a year now and it’s been fine.

They should have laid a long garden hose all the way to mt doom and pushed the ring though it with a bicycle pump

I appreciate Postal 2 because the premise is kinda funny. It’s deliberately designed so you can beat it without doing any violence at all. You’re given tasks like get milk, pick up your paycheck, etc. And it involves standing in lines or people berating you. You’re stuck doing tedious annoying repetitive tasks, or you can get a flamethrower. I think standing in line to get Gary Coleman’s autograph takes 90 minutes if you do it normally.

Otherwise it’s very silly early 2000s edgy white guy dudebro humor

I’ve read through your earlier post and it doesn’t really strike me as frightening or anything. It seems like standard kind of national mythology stuff that gets taught to kids no matter where they’re from. What’s the alternative? Is there a country on Earth that has an education curriculum amounting to “We suck and everything sucks. The government should be overthrown”?

Honestly what you described makes me kinda envious. It sounds cool, and it seems to have better outcomes. Kids in China outperform kids from my country in every metric from what I know, including stuff like understanding of civics, history, etc. Whereas when I was growing up I was told national mythology that makes excuses for genocide, like that pilgrims were friends with native americans, and that there were “kind” slave owners. I was continuously told the American Civil War was over a complex disagreement over civics, not slavery, and in fact the northern states started the war over jealously of the south’s freedoms. The south which was a slave economy. I was told my state of Texas was justified in its war against Mexico for vague semblances of freedom and justice, even though the Texans were fighting to keep their slaves.

I know China’s not the solution, but rather the answer is movement within America that could learn from Chinese Marxists and apply their methodology within an American context. International collaboration is the answer, ending American imperialism is the answer, and a fully class conscious American working class willing to shed its nationalist chauvinism is the answer

Dude, this may be breaching opsec, but my comrades have had DEA and FBI knock on their doors because of affiliation with anarchist organizations and connection to BLM leadership. Please don’t tell me what cops here do or what I have the freedom to do. I live here and I’ve seen people get arrested. Just last month an elderly guy was shot and killed in an FBI raid over a tweet.

We’re free to criticize as long as we keep quiet about it and don’t actually try anything. The place I live absolutely will kill people if need be. I’m definitely not free to be open and critical wherever I go. My boss will fire my ass if he knew my politics. I’ve been fired for unionizing attempts at previous jobs. Is that freedom? Freedom of speech without the freedom to do shit about it? I don’t subscribe to this liberal horseshit of raising awareness or raising voices, or that my ability to say certain things is my greatest freedom. Fuck that, I would take a free house, comfortable existence, a better job, and healthcare if it meant never opening my mouth again. You understand me? I want to do shit now, actual physical things and topple this whole capitalist framework.

I’ve seen a Chinese history textbook for kids in high school and it’s just generic history using a Marxist lens and framing the CPC as the current administrative body. They list accomplishments of the party, yeah, but that’s because they have accomplishments they can point to.

It’s a lot better than how my American school tried to get me to worship slave owners like Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton.

we all love a nice pointy dick. i remember the good old days at the dick sharpening factory
