2018-11-10 18:30:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

By that classification, China is third world. Don't believe anyone would call them that though

2018-11-10 18:30:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

`China`
`communism`
Pick one

2018-11-10 18:33:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And even then, by this classification the PRC left second world shortly after 1955

2018-11-10 18:34:48 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Yet for some reason few will call China third world these days :^)

We went to visit a friend of mom's on that evening (I was 8) and turned on the radio before leaving for some reason. All channels were reporting on the story nonstop, and when we got where we were headed, turned out all TV channels were stocked with the very same reporting. I remember wondering what the big deal was, since we got blown up buildings over here often around that time. The building looked way taller than anything I'd seen up to that point.

2018-11-10 18:52:27 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

It lives in the new national anthem as well tbh

2018-11-10 18:56:50 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

You know something's wrong with the system of government when one of the heads of your central administrative unit is shocked to see prosperity

2018-11-10 18:57:37 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

Unfortunately, that's what happens when people lack access to alternatives to look at and compare themselves to

2018-11-10 18:58:15 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

Which says a lot about the future of current day political debate that uses echo chambers as its cornerstone in a lot of countries

2018-11-12 15:08:14 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I do hate the US of A, but that's because I'm Russian :^))))))))))))))))))

2018-11-12 15:08:34 UTC [Subverse #general]  

(disclaimer: I don't hate any particular country)

2018-11-12 15:09:36 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Germany gives those sweet gasbux though

2018-11-12 15:09:42 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Can't hate on that :^)

2018-11-12 15:11:09 UTC [Subverse #general]  

They aren't going to allow AfD to do it, and AfD aren't nearly competent enough to get the victory themselves. What AfD does affect though is the amount of space left to divide between the other parties, which drives everyone crazy

2018-11-12 15:12:13 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Like, if AfD and Die Linke get 40% of electorate between them in some dream world, the rest will have to form a coalition encompassing 83% of them

2018-11-12 15:14:09 UTC [Subverse #general]  

A flat rate and more welfare programs ๐Ÿ‘Œ

2018-11-12 15:15:16 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Wait, they may actually do it some day

2018-11-12 15:15:39 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Private welfare would be exempt from taxation, right? :^)

- t. antifa, probably

2018-11-12 15:18:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Debatable. In a monopoly, sure. Where there's competition, you can't just maximize your profits outright

2018-11-12 15:20:00 UTC [Subverse #general]  

No, complete privatization would make every industry become like the gamedev industry.

Complete nationalization, well, you know what it ends like

2018-11-13 09:12:04 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Did Macron ride into that church in Vatican on horseback, after all the commotion?

2018-11-13 09:25:55 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

@Khanclansith if that's the justification Ukrainian officials use to incorporate Wolfsangel-bearing forces into their national guard, Ukraine is on tracks that lead right into a wall.

2018-11-13 12:08:48 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Thank you based merchant

2018-11-13 12:27:22 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I mean they can, but their lives will be miserable, their daughters will have all sorts of issues, and their sons will be wimpy as hell

2018-11-13 12:28:59 UTC [Subverse #general]  

@Undead Mockingbird That kind of thinking is what causes helicopter parents. It's not a full-time job, kids need a break from their parents too. Doesn't make single parent families any better though.

2018-11-13 12:32:52 UTC [Subverse #general]  

@Undead Mockingbird For some reason, I don't really have abandonment issues. Got other issues from single parenting, but abandonment is about the opposite of them.

2018-11-13 14:51:00 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Beanie man mad

2018-11-13 14:51:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It's just a thing 4kek pushes whenever someone discusses "meme magic" and so such

2018-11-13 14:52:20 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Also, you know who else never showed their hair.
Voldemort.
Coincidence?

2018-11-13 14:52:32 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Orange Man fake hair

2018-11-13 14:52:36 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Orange Man bad

2018-11-13 14:53:32 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It must be a kippah

2018-11-13 15:00:00 UTC [Subverse #general]  

You're a big frog

2018-11-13 15:02:19 UTC [Subverse #debate]  

Alternatively, to create much less garbage, use a dongcopter

2018-11-13 15:03:27 UTC [Subverse #debate]  

Gary Kasparov and the Flying Penis on Youtube explains the concept

2018-11-13 15:03:52 UTC [Subverse #debate]  

Basically, a remote controlled helicopter toy with its frame replaced with a dildo

2018-11-13 15:06:13 UTC [Subverse #debate]  

Yeah, but you could surely get fined in a city for putting that much litter on the streets, right?

2018-11-13 16:29:09 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Wait, why would you ever need 12.7 for civilian needs?

2018-11-13 16:32:40 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

@Phalynx Sure. Also, large calibers haven't been a big problem so far. I'm just surprised to meet someone who owns that much firepower.

2018-11-13 16:47:30 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

47s and its generation has been cycled out at this point though. Pretty sure there's a whole lot of them rusting in abandoned stockpiles now

2018-11-13 16:58:23 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Tbqh Lee did force creators out of IP rights

2018-11-13 16:59:17 UTC [Subverse #general]  

But the average <:VeRiFiEd:463064374236413962> won't care about IP rights

2018-11-13 16:59:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Er, it's more like stealing babies

2018-11-13 17:00:04 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Money making babies

2018-11-13 17:00:55 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Which is business maneuvering, sure, but only the suits will like you for it

2018-11-13 17:03:03 UTC [Subverse #general]  

See, if <:VeRiFiEd:463064374236413962> don't believe people have the right to the fruit of their labour, they can't possibly complain about someone stealing others' products

2018-11-13 17:05:39 UTC [Subverse #general]  

What kind of tech fills a man's cave, I wonder ๐Ÿค”

2018-11-13 17:07:31 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Wew

2018-11-13 17:10:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

So Russia has finally won :^)

2018-11-13 17:19:31 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

I mean I've been to some backwater companies during my service, but the most use I've seen AKMs have is during oath swearing

2018-11-13 17:20:11 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Pretty sure everything remotely related to combat uses newer models

2018-11-13 17:20:46 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Hell, even as comms, we had 74s

2018-11-13 17:21:30 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Still are
At least here in the big country

2018-11-13 17:25:40 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

49/2s were still handled in 1998 in some conscript companies

2018-11-13 17:26:28 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

But back then you could drive a tank corps from Helsinki to St. Pete's without much opposition

2018-11-13 17:26:54 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Wait, may have been AKMs

2018-11-13 17:27:07 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Will have to double-check

2018-11-13 17:27:34 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Stamped if I'm not completely crazy

2018-11-13 17:28:05 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Yeah, my bad

2018-11-13 17:47:37 UTC [Subverse #general]  

"I am the Jews"

2018-11-13 17:49:30 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

They got it right by abandoning the economic model and keeping the ideology to run the masses

2018-11-13 17:50:01 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

(or parts of the ideology, at least)

2018-11-13 17:50:23 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Hey, it's an open market out there :^)

2018-11-13 17:51:18 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

Outside of China, I mean. They hired the best :^)

2018-11-13 17:54:38 UTC [Subverse #politics-free-for-all]  

When building a communist country, that's taken as an axiom

2018-11-13 18:36:36 UTC [Subverse #general]  

I kinda wish the big arab countries knew how to wage war better, because SA's army is sometimes painful to watch

2018-11-13 18:41:34 UTC [Subverse #general]  

`Their country is most likely run by a dictator or a corrupt bureaucracy.`
Regardless, outside of the arab world a few countries run by corrupt bureaucracies do know how to build a functioning army

2018-11-13 18:41:56 UTC [Subverse #general]  

For some reason, the big arab powers just can't do it

2018-11-13 21:47:30 UTC [Subverse #newsroom]  

Sucking dick ain't gay tbh
That dick has likely been in a pussy

2018-11-13 21:50:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Just get a Newfoundland, lads. They are huge and chill.

2018-11-14 18:16:32 UTC [Subverse #general]

2018-11-15 11:55:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

`I'm OK with a SS army in white armor, but not with a NKVD secret police communist
Better dead than red`
If either case means dead, what's the difference?

2018-11-15 11:59:34 UTC [Subverse #general]  

@JohnOakman Mohammad?

2018-11-15 11:59:38 UTC [Subverse #general]  

:^)

2018-11-15 12:00:26 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Important question though
Are lolis pedophilia? ๐Ÿค”

2018-11-15 12:00:35 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Damn

2018-11-15 12:02:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

`Fucking a trap isn't gay since he appears like a perfect girl. `
Oh, so you're memeing

2018-11-15 12:04:26 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Here's your friendly reminder to ask any girl you want to shag for her combat logs.

Remember, no parse = no arse.

2018-11-15 12:05:37 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Tbh how fucked do people have to be to create communist states which starve from day 1

2018-11-15 12:05:44 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Even USSR managed to do better

2018-11-15 12:05:56 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And they didn't know shit about statebuilding

2018-11-15 12:06:54 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Even without that, you can go for a decade or so pretty all right given simple planning

2018-11-15 12:10:19 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Same idea spoken in different languages.

Communism applied to reality works via forced planning of the economy. As long as your population and surrounding tech doesn't change much, you can plan for enough agricultural production to keep the population afloat and you're okay (provided no disasters happen). Having (or not having) rich people is irrelevant, since they're going to bail first thing at the faint mention of a communist takeover

2018-11-15 12:11:23 UTC [Subverse #general]  

So starving on day 1 means either atrocious planning, or a country overpopulated for the amount of agriculture it has (which is never the case for communist countries today, to my knowledge)

2018-11-15 12:11:58 UTC [Subverse #general]  

No, I mean actual card systems

2018-11-15 12:12:12 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Since you know there won't be a Walmart during communism

2018-11-15 12:13:20 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Look, I'm not saying communism is a good system or anything, I just mean that running it in a way that people starve right out of the gates is pretty retarded

2018-11-15 12:14:23 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It's impossible to run it good

2018-11-15 12:14:38 UTC [Subverse #general]  

It's not adaptive enough to run good

2018-11-15 12:15:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

You can run a planned economy if you know you're headed into a war or something of the like, and it's more efficient than most other economic models for it

2018-11-15 12:16:10 UTC [Subverse #general]  

And that's about the only case in which it exceeds

2018-11-15 12:19:28 UTC [Subverse #general]  

Sure is

2018-11-15 12:40:43 UTC [Subverse #general]  

@JohnOakman On the topic of that church, yeah, the government decided that instead of ideological bankruptcy, it would adopt Orthodoxy as its main guideline again, so this now happens.
Although the army is probably one of the few places that would benefit from it. Hell, it would benefit from any kind of moral guidance
