Neither is US who is the main participant in the war from the western side.

Putin literally put out a very realistic version of what peace could look like today. The west rejected it. That’s the reality.

What do you all check instead of the news?

I’ve realized that I check the news several times a day but not because I’m curious about what’s happening on the grand scheme of things, but because my brain wants to check something that keeps changing with new, evolving information. It fills a slightly different niche than social media, and I don’t watch sports so I...

lol I’m definitely in the news checking to pass the time boat :)

To this day, nobody’s actually articulated any counterpoints to it, so yeah.

The problem with anarchist theory is that it demonstrably doesn’t work. A theory that can’t be put into practice is not worth the paper its written on.

How exactly would Marx denounce Lenin? Or Mao?

You’d know if you read anarchist theory 😂

Just because you have trouble comprehending something doesn’t make it stupid.

The thing is that anarchism fundamentally doesn’t scale. There’s a reason we see central authority arise in every functioning society regardless of its political system. It’s the same reason complex animals evolve things like nervous systems and brains. Large organism need a way to coordinate actions towards a common purpose, and a human society is no different. This is why we see anarchist style societies at small scales, and then as they grow they develop central coordination mechanisms. The fact that anarchist can’t wrap their heads around this simple concept is frankly depressing.

I love how being unable to make a coherent argument you go on bleating about tankies. If you admit that capitalism is not a democracy for the majority, then what democracy is being abolished?

nah, the actual bottoms are the people who have been so conditioned to subjugation that they can’t even imagine being in charge

Indeed, and this is why anarchism is really just an offshoot of the liberal ideology at the end of the day. Idealism holds that existence is inseparable from human perception and that reality stems from the mind. This leads them to think that they can just will reality into existence through sheer force of will. The general premise most anarchists seem to believe is that the state is responsible for all the problems in society, and if it was somehow abolished then people would just naturally act in cooperative and enlightened way. This appears to be premised on the assumption that most people think the way anarchists do.

If the critique was well founded we’d see it applied in practice in the real world. The fact that anarchists aren’t able to put their ideas into practice shows that they can be safely binned.

neither do anarchists though, so I don’t feel alone in that regard

Aww somebody’s projecting. I love how you deny the reality of socialism that has been achieved in the real world while accusing me of idealism. Peak anarchist logic right there. 🤡

socialism is when non-state-run unions 🤣

when you definitely understand what a government is

I’d like to see a reminder app that figures out how to space out your reminders, and if you nooze a reminder then it gets slotted at some random future date.

I find I end up making reminders for shows I want to watch, books I want to read, etc. These don’t have any specific day associated with them, but I do want o get to them at some point. So getting a reminder once a week or so to check out one of the items on a list would be really nice.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

I do that now, but it’s a bit clunky I find. Basically, I don’t really want a calendar, so much as just getting a reminder sometime in the future, and if I have time and I’m in a mood I’ll look at it, and if not then I snooze and it’ll pop up later sometime.

If by commit suicide you mean grow faster than any G7 economy making Russia 4th largest economy then sure.

Here’s a helpful tip for you. Go back and look at the predictions people made over the past two years, then see how many of those predictions were in line with what actually happened. Then stop listening to people who were consistently wrong about absolutely everything. Perun is a perfect example of somebody who was exposed as a complete and utter fraud. On the other hand, Biran Berletic made consistently accurate predictions about the direction of the war, so if you want to understand what’s happening then I can highly recommend watching his analysis www.youtube.com/

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Sure, here’s a prime example of him being completely wrong about Russian economy and the effect of sanctions www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEpk_yGjn0E

Here’s him being completely wrong about Russian industrial capacity making an absolutely hilarious claim that the conflict could be over in months or weeks www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2ptG1IxZ08

Here’s one where he claims that NATO is not going to run out of weapons for Ukraine, which is now happening www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CmXz8Qd9yw

Here’s him completely misunderstanding the Russian military capability www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKewF8_SiIs

These are just a few examples of him being proven completely and utterly wrong. The fact that you think his analysis is spot on shows that you’re living in an invented reality crafted by the propagandists whose content you consume uncritically.

@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

What’s amazing to me is that this stuff is now openly reported in western media, and we still have people running around talking about Russia collapsing any day now. I suspect that a lot of the people who got really invested in project Ukraine stopped paying attention a while back, and they’re just regurgitating the talking points they memorized two years ago.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

I think it was a very calculated move actually. He did this right before the Switzerland circus, and it forced the west to say that they reject peace. This shows the rest of the world that it is indeed the west that wants the war to keep going which makes it impossible for western diplomats to go around claiming that Russia doesn’t want peace.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s the thing with propaganda, it can work for a while, but material reality always wins in the end. I find liberals in particular tend to be susceptible to this because their ideology is rooted in idealism. There’s this idea that you can just invent reality in your mind, and the material world will conform to it.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

lol that’s true, they will go on to make clowns of themselves regardless

I love how you’re aggressively working to avoid understanding what you’re being told. Like you really want to be right on this even though we both know you’re full of shit.

By refuse to answer your question you mean I refuse to say what you want me to say. I’ve already stated everything I need to say here, and people reading this thread can make up their own mind. Best of luck to you.
