I pick on KFC plenty. If you order at the wrong time you will get hours old chicken at lots of locations, and it will be soggy and sad and basically just congeal into a lump of goopy breading.

When the chicken is fresh it is top tier, but even at peak dinner time I end up getting soggy chicken half the time.

Do people really remember that much before age 10? I have a few core memories but general cultural awareness is pretty lacking and mostly based on hindsight.

Nobody cares.

You can tell

Hey you leave my mom out of this!

Bro leave some legs for the rest of us

“Right, so you see, when a conductor is passed through a magnetic field, an electromotive force is produced, and this force can perform work, which can in turn be used to represent probabilistic information…”

Me, writing an entire sentence describing process, rules and hierarchy within an organization so that I don’t have to try to spell the single word which describes this concept:

Canola is rapeseed

It’s not even an issue of population. Communism requires material conditions you simply cannot create by killing the opposition, no matter how much you desire to preserve “the revolution.”

Capitalism is but one manifestation of material and labor scarcity. Until those things are eliminated you will experience the exact same ills in one form or another. Until those things are eliminated the only option available is harm reduction. Revolutionary communism fails specifically because it fails to recognize itself as a particularly shitty form of harm reduction, insisting the entire concept is bourgeoise propaganda. This is what contemporary leftist theorists have come understand, and what obnoxious internet edgelords refuse to acknowledge, because it requires admitting that Stalin and Mao didn’t get it right.

Ironically this is literally the foundation of Dengism and modern China, which MLs say they like, until you reduce it to first principles, at which point it once again becomes bourgeoise propaganda.

Nutonic is literally a transphobe who is on record as saying that trans rights are western degeneracy

Sure, in the same way I appreciate Kant or Kierkegaard or any other modernist - as foundational thinkers who laid the groundwork for more contemporary ideas. The entire issue is that so many internet leftists take Marx as dogma, and are often poor students of philosophy outside of that very narrow context, yet will lecture you about how you only disagree with them because you haven’t read enough year one polisci material. ML spaces are as dunning Kruger as the internet gets.

I like socialism too. But I hate bootlicking authoritarian simps who pretend like they know shit about socialism because they read that one Lenin essay on Marxist.org

Nyet comrade. Is liberal American racism of Russia phobia to criticize purge of Ukraine Nazi from motherland.

I gave it a picture of houseplants and it said they looked healthy and well cared for which actually made me feel pretty happy and validated.

Well I didn’t vote for 'im

You will struggle to get serious answers here. But many leftists crave validation more than they crave good ideas. Not all of them, mind you, but on places like ML anyone outside the orthodoxy inevitably just gets shouted down.

I keep track of my grocery bills going on 10 years now and 14-15% is spot on for what I buy.

Perhaps but I’m not sure what that has to do with my comment about internet haters.

Yeah, when we tried to do the “gotcha” thing with electroboom where he was completely wrong on the main topic of his original video but “right” on a technicality because he framed it as a trick question. But conveniently didn’t mention the “trick” in his original video. Jackass.
