Nowadays, Its actually harder to find a game that flat out won’t work. Thanks to Proton, the only games that you can’t play on linux are ones that the developer has specifically forbidden from working on linux via whatever AC they use.

yes, IOS is very private.

The comment at the time I replied said “how are things over there”, without the “in canada” bit.

I assumed that because he mentioned that he became a canadian citizen, that he was currently living in canada, and because the post is about a UK policy, that wanted to know more of what it was like in the UK currently in case he ever wanted to come back.

And while I am aware that we live in a parliamentary system, I find calling it a democracy, like most tend to do, is pretty ridiculous if we only get to participate in it for a few minutes every five years, and afterwards, whoever wins isn’t held to account when they end up failing in their duty to represent the people who elect them.

Did you receive an election ballot for either Sunak or Truss? 'Cause I didn’t.

We live under capitalism. When profits are threatened, human rights go out the window.

Housing is an example of property given freely in Socialist states such as the USSR and PRC.

Hell, if even North Korea can do it, why can’t we?

It may be nice having rights like that, but if you can’t even exercise them, what’s the point to begin with if your material conditions remain untouched?

Not spiralling downwards over here… plummeting.

Hell, we didn’t even get to vote for our last two leaders, both of whom did more damage individually than Thatcher.

As for the alternative when we do get a chance to vote, well they’ve abandoned just about every principle and policy they had now that victory is practically garaunteed, so they’ve effectively become diet tories.

“China builds an island with a small town that utilises the capitalist system of economy, allowing them to spread communism to the rest of the world, and capitalism becomes all but destroyed thanks to the town’s preservation project.”

What’s so brutal about him exactly?

The purges weren’t just stalin going around shooting his opposition, they were a series of anti-corruption trials aimed at removing revisionists in power who were intent on seeing a return of capitalism. It was only in the worst cases, people who had deliberately committed espionage or sabotage, who were sentenced to death. Everyone else however, was largely either just barred from political life, or sent to jail, or not prosecuted at all as they hadn’t done anything yet.

Anyone wanna do another raid on Area 51?

With the proliferation of automated production combined with a rapidly increasing population, limiting the maximum work week (where practically possible), that employers could force employee’s to take (so not including voluntary overtime), could be one of many possible solutions to rises in unemployment, by artificially increasing the amount of workers a business would need to hire to maintain productivity, while simultaneously allowing those workers a greater amount of time to themselves to do with as they wish.

Am I missing something? Why is this memified ‘pure socialist’ parenti quote being downvoted so much?

AMD’s your friend now, but they’re only undercutting NVIDIA like this to get on top of the market. Once they’ve done that, it will be NVIDIA doing the undercutting, and AMD will be the one clamping down and exploiting their position.

It has happened time and time again.

Don’t simp for corporations. They’ll never return the favour.

Not sure where your source comes from, as you havent cited anything, but it doesn’t even give a definition for the term.

It is just a vague statement about a proletarian government needing to be organised in a way that allows it to govern well and actually do stuff to prevent a bourgeois counter revolution.

Yes, that describes China’s actions, as they are very effective at governing, and purging bourgeois influence when it becomes a threat. but that alone isn’t anything concerning. Hell, I’d be concerned if they weren’t doing what is described above, as that would mean that they’re a sham and have betrayed the proletariat.

Anyways, back onto definitions, according to Frederick Engles in his work ‘on authority’, the dictatorship of the proletariat is a society in which the proletariat is the class that holds state power, unlike the dictatorship of capital that we see today in western countries, in which it is the bourgeois capitalists that are in possession of said state power.

I will continue to throw shade until your questions become valid, and your evidence isnt cherry picked from your arse.

Still a thing for some enterprise users… and the elderly.

I believe uBlock Origin has very good adblocker blocker blocking capabilities.

On desktop, Firefox + ublock origin is my goto.

On Mobile, the best I can really do is Youtube revanced and PiHole, but that doesn’t cover everything, and often breaks other functionality.

You have no idea what “Dictatorship of the Proletariat” even means, do you?
