Try to erase my culture and my country through a century of forced occupation while sending my family to gulags in Siberia?

Man could you be more spineless and subservient or are you a bot? Central government says it’s time to abandon your local culture for “great unity” and you bend over and take it. You don’t see a problem here?

Yes it was pretty bad. It’s well documented, you should try reading.

What does Lebanon have to do with China destroying domestic minorities? What are you even on about

Lmao this is cultural genocide 101. I know because soviet union did the same to my country under the same absurd language like “unity” and “greatness”. Even if you are delusioned here you have to admit these almost satire levels red flags no?

It’s a pretty big meme amongst people who actually experience horrors of communism that prominent tankies are as far removed from real communism as possible e.g. mom’s basement in an extremely privileged west europe/us doing nothing but armchair analysis without actually contributing anything else.

Or any other minority in China

But don’t worry, some dutch guy from mom’s basement living on welfare will tell us that it’s not what it looks and it’s actually good for unified diversity of all people

Built? By whom?
The issue with soviet blocks was not the density. The actual design was brilliant as each of these blocks had all conveniences like schools and shops within reach.
The issue as with most soviet union is corruption and management incompetence. They took one design and applied to 15% of world’s land mass. So the house in deep Siberia and costs of warm Azerbaijan were the same.
People live just fine in close quarters - just take a look at Japan.

- Comment on How would an anarchist society work? 3 weeks ago:
I really like low scale anarchy (town level) but high scale would only work with strong scifi-level decentralization tools where public goods can be negotiated and developed without massive centralized bodies. Alternatively society has to enter a post resource scarcity era - as in star trek replicator level of advancement.
Unfortunately due to game theory and real life power curves true global anarchism with current technology is simply impossible.

20-40 Gs for horizontal force.
- Comment on Chinese Maglev test vehicle sets world record, accelerating from 0 to 318 MPH in 2 seconds 3 months ago:
As other commenter pointer out direction of force is important. Horizontal force is much less dangerous as it doesn’t drain your brain of blood as much as a vertical one.
- Comment on Arc raiders is a horrible game 3 months ago:
I really want to like the game but haven’t got a single enjoyable match in like 20 I tried. The graphics and environmenta are stunning I just don’t get the gameplay. It’s like first 10 minutes of a battle royale over and over without the rest of it.

I think you don’t understand how world reserve currency works. It has to be at least influencable by other countries. Nothing can influence Yuan - it’ll never be a world reserve currency.

Why use authoritarian currency?

Lmao give China more power

Right now the POTUS can shut down the European economy with an EO ordering cloud providers to stop servicing European banks.
That would be a straight up declaration of war though and if that happens broken e-commerce would be the least of our worries.
The real reason to develop alternatives is to simply keep money and power away from US as that’s the only thing US really cares about.
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 3 months ago:
My take is that US is already on massive decline. I’m not an american but I am a big fan of US and I’ve never seen US this weak even if you ignore how ugly it is under current leadership. I honestly don’t know how US will ever recover from this trump presidency and it seems like nothing but down hill from here.
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 3 months ago:
China fundamentally can’t be the world leader as it’s incompatible with the rest of the world it would have to lead. Here we are talking about this on american led internet - not Chinese great firewall. The only thing people want from China is the stuff they make not the Chinese culture or leadership.
The reason why US is so successful at leading the world because it’s basically a giant haven for other world cultures which makes it easy to integrate anywhere.

I spray my garden with couple of cigarettes worth of tobacco water once in a while - works great as a natural insecticide!
I also used to live next to a tobacco plantation in Thailand once and the plant itself is quite incredible - basically untouchable by disease or insects so completel hands free and the fields are really cozy.
