zionism always was a vile ideology. i am happy that more people are beginning to see it for what it is.

i hope the world never forgives the biden regime for this genocide. death to the settler colony!

thank you for this recommendation! i hope i can convince my friends to start using it

linux, unironically. literally all local infrastructure is running on windows, despite the security risks this entails.

i wouldnt say that we are "the most sanctioned", as in comparison to cuba or korea were basically unrestricted. video kinda just looks like click bait honestly.

edit: i just read that un sanctions have been lifted from the dprk thanks to russia vetoing their renewal. i guess were now the most sanctioned indeed

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

why are right wingers like you triggered by absolutely everything? the meme has nothing political about it and you are seething!

also, please learn how to spell rubles

while others again might want the man to be the bear.

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

you are a criminal.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

your point?

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

libertarian "socialists" are a deeply idealist tendency that didnt manage to get anything done ever. the only thing they do is criticize actually existing socialist projects, mostly using state department talking points. the concept of critical support is unknown to them and the only revolutions they like are the ones that fail. they are puppets in the hands of the cia.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

во-первых, социал-демократы ни в коем случае не являются социалистами, они обычно даже не претендуют на это. их истинная лояльность была достаточно продемонстрирована тем фактом, что меньшевики встали на сторону белых, а германский спд приказал фрайкорпусу (будущему ss) убивать спартакистов. анархисты, с другой стороны, представляют собой большую группу различных типов людей, из которых только часть претендует на социализм (синдикалисты, анкомы итд).

однако все это не имеет никакого значения, поскольку эти группы никогда не смогли добиться ни хрена. все их начинания провалились весьма плачевно, например, в испании. в отличие от мл, которые действительно смогли улучшить жизнь людей, поскольку они понимали, что репрессивные меры абсолютно необходимы для выживания государства. просто посмотри, как быстро соцблок превратился в абсолютно дерьмовую ситуацию, в которой мы находимся сегодня, после того как горби сделал то, что он сделал.

о кндр достаточно хорошо известно, что ложь, распространяемая западными сми, в основном является лишь проекцией того, что исторически делалось в оккупированной южной корее. почитай на эту тему книгу "патриоты, предатели и империи" стивена гованса. даже если ты все равно хочешь быть против северокорейского правительства, именно в этом и заключается критическая часть критической поддержки.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

yeah, lets just all believe in absolutely nothing and let the status quo continue. i hope you are happy being exploited by capitalists day in day out.

vaushites pulling shit out of their ass instance 9001

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

i originally wanted to point out how ironic it is that a .world user wants to talk about site culture, but considering that you arent even capable of writing the word lemmy, its probably pointless.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

thank you, comrade!

one thing i might add is the fact that most if not all of the propagated lies about the dprk are projection. sexual slavery was a thing the american occupation forces engaged in massively and south korean dictator pak chong-hui was killed during a dinner party with a underage concubine present. later, haircut policing was a thing in the south during the 1980s under chon tu-hwan. the most prominent korean defector, pak yon-mi is a white supremacist btw.

i believe that the whole hacking thing is massively exaggerated by western media as part of their whole "the enemy is both weak and strong"-strategy. it is both a way to engineer further fear mongering against korea, as well as to mask their own incompetence. but even if im wrong and they are indeed from the dprk, i still find them quite based and funny tbh.

do you happen to have any resources on the lgbt situation within the county? i would love to educate myself on the topic.

i also slightly disagree with you on china. they never seized being a socialist state, but have sadly become revisionist since deng. that doesnt make them any less worthy of critical support though.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

hey, idk why you got removed, you were talking about an interesting topic.

i obviously didnt watch the stream, since i dont have so much free time on my hands, but having read the comments i believe to have more or less gotten the gist of what they are saying. its the usual talking points.

this old r/genzedong thread does imho a great job on providing evidence that china does in fact not fit lenins criteria for a imperialist nation, even if one were to assume that it has a capitalist economy. (cw coarse language though)

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

ahhh yes... horrible as in:

• guaranteed housing and employment
• a non-discriminatory education system
• 0% unemployment
• low taxes
• an actually functional railway network
• a highly developed health care system that didn't discriminate on basis of class
• guaranteed childcare
• womens rights way more advanced than in western germany at the time
• and most importantly no fascists in government

and no, i dont wanna say that there were no deficiencies, but it is rather obvious to me that it was quite the opposite of "horrible"!

also, what the hell do you mean by "pretty socialist"?

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

im sorry but you seem to have been fed quite a few western myths about the gdr. you seem to be arguing in good faith though, so lets examine:

no freedom of movement

this is just plain wrong. tourism was possible and encouraged not only within the country, but also to fellow socialist states like czechoslovakia and hungary, as well as, albeit to a lesser extent the soviet union. such trips were enjoyed by virtually the entire population thanks to guaranteed vacation time.

constant shortage of goods

shortages were only a thing in the immediate aftermath of ww2, as well as during the 1980s. in the second case they were caused by the economic liberalization enacted at the time due to western pressure, as well as the general deterioration of conditions in the eastern block at the time, which happened for similar reasons. during the late 60s and 70s per capita consumption was more or less equal to the west.

being a dictatorship

every state is necessarily a dictatorship, as this is important for class preservation. just as liberal states will mercilessly crush revolutionary elements, so must socialist societies crush counterrevolutionary ones. please read engels on authority to understand this point better. it is a short read and very eye opening.

a housing shortage

any source on this claim? the only periods i can imagine this to be the case is in the beginning due to war era destruction and the end due to crisis.

a culture so dictated by work that people had little to no free time

this is in fact a valid point. a solution for this could have been found within the socialist system though.

political pressure

already answered previously in the point about "dictatorship".

control over the media

"All over the world, wherever there are capitalists, freedom of the press means freedom to buy up newspapers, to buy writers, to bribe, buy and fake “public opinion” for the benefit of the bourgeoisie."

– v. i. lenin

the fucking stasi

the mfs was necessary due to the constant threat of counterrevolution going out from west germany. but its reach and capabilities are much overblown in western propaganda nowadays. in fact, the east spent much less on its intelligence apparatus than the frg while still managing to have a lower crime rate.

the goals you stated are extremely noble and i do in fact agree with every single one of them. you are being idealist though, which means that you absolutely need to read theory, especially lenin. a good reading list can be found here. if you would educate yourself properly you could become a great contribution to the communist movement.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

виновен

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

yeah the state department point was probably a little harsh and generalizing of me, though i am indeed quite pissed how reactionaries like vaush or keffals are appropriating leftist aesthetics in order to shill for us imperialism. i am also standing with my statement about ancoms & co not getting anything done, sorry.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

why are reactionaries always assuming that their opponents are children? only because you are a teenager living within the imperial core, consuming nothing but nato propaganda, you shouldnt assume that everyone else is an equivalent.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

in order to appreciate socialism, one must have studied capitalism. yet you liberals are so smug, having studied neither.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

what do you mean? the lack of cia talking points here is really refreshing imho. on reddit everything is drowned in a sea of "communism bad"-bots.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

so all youre telling me that after the county was almost completely destroyed during ww2, the situation was dire? no fucking shit, sherlock.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

what exactly?

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 10 days ago

why? thats just a fact. a liberal state is the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, while a socialist state is the dictatorship of the proletariat.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 9 days ago

thats exactly what the dictatorship of the proletariat is for! after the exploiting classes are eliminated, the state will wither away, leaving a classless society, aka communism. this takes much time though.

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

where do i sign up? im kinda broke

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

why are liberals so proud of their ignorance?

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

There is a quote by famous theorist of World Systems Theory Samir Amin on this term:

The concept of totalitarianism is itself a false concept, invented in the contemporary era for the purpose of confining social analysis and critique within the horizon of so-called liberal, democratic, and insurmountable (the “end of history”) capitalism.

stop being a shitlib and educate yourself about the meaning of words before using them. comrade davel gave you some wonderful resources and you are dismissing them.

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

your question was stupid and essentially just buzzwords. rebuttals to absolutely everything you said can be found in comrade davels resources. also im not sure wether you want to reference orwell, considering that he was a snitch, a cop and a rapist (and his books are bad.)

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

pure idealism. what kind of brainworms do do you have in order to attribute the determination of material conditions in the us to fucking memes of all things instead of the decline of the empire, as well as the sharpening contradictions of capitalism? clown shit

imnotfromkaliningrad OP , 11 days ago

despite not being religious i have to admit that jesus seemed like quite a chill dude.

Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God

afaik the og meme also included obama as tigger (which is a weird way to represent black people) but he is now omitted for some reason....

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

lemmitor not understanding irony, as usual. homeboy was obviously joking.

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

i use foss because i like the idea of it (its basically cyber leftism), as well as to hide from western intelligence, since i have the misfortune of living in there. why are YOU using it?

unlike western nations, china is a a dictatorship of the proletariat, aka a peoples state. you will only be targered, if you are some kind of rightist. i happen to support the targeting of such people, to the point that i believe the prc isnt doing nearly enough in this regard, allowing elements like deng xiaoping to rise through the ranks. cuba and korea are much more consequent in this regard.

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

sorry, but im not getting paid, even though i would love to be. how about you? you sound awfully fed-like

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

i can imagine that the original creator really just made a light hearted joke, but liberals have to corrupt absolutely everything

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

... while libs are still sleeping, unaware of the world

also, wasnt it your instance that literally had a c/thedonald community for a while?

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

wut?

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

us communists literally invented them, shitlib. is the american education system so terrible that you dont even know things as basic as that?

imnotfromkaliningrad , 11 days ago

thats why i am trying to explain to my family since forever. their answer always amounts to something like "it would be illegal for them to look at my data!" like those companies would care. .

no investigation no right to speak.

some very smart chinese guy, idk
