  • I don’t think the 3rd one follows, and isn’t the 4th one a thing everywhere? ACAB is a very popular slogan and sentiment! 5: if usury is a sin and reaping what you did not sow is immoral, then yes, it follows that the whole market is sinful and immoral. When it comes to the 6th one, I’d say that companies cannot or shouldn’t really be “punished” but any decision maker in the company certainly can and should be if he’s a corrupt enemy of humanity etc etc. I don’t know anything about the other points, but Chinese cuisine is my second favourite and Romance of the Three Kingdoms slaps!



  • For the reds, Mamdani is all the redscare, islamophobe and racist things they’ve been told to hate. For the blues, he’s some sort of saviour and proof that democracy in America can actually work as intended, and isn’t just something between entertainment and PR. You need a protagonist and an antagonist to build a narrative, after all. But the system never worked in your favour and nobody in power has any morals or virtue (else they’d just get taken out, lol, you think the CIA is above that?). And the population either doesn’t care or doesn’t notice because they themselves are iffy, their cultural baggage came with everything but belief in objective morality and virtuous duty to the rest of humanity. The “all that matters is the bag and my pleasure; death, rape and pillaging is acceptable if I get what I want” (how do you think the country was created? How do you think they gained and maintain their wealth?! It doesn’t matter if you say you’re A when all you do is B, stop lying to yourselves, please) culture will never breed respectable people in enough quantities, if they happen to exist there its by accident, and none will reach a position of power.

    They tried dark skin with Obama but they can’t do that again, then they tried white female but she was an obvious see you next Tuesday, so they tried pushing AOC cause she’s a bit more personable and attractive while being brown but she’s not that popular either so now they’re going with brown “Muslim” man, that’s all.



  • It’s a case to case thing but, at times, trying to convince people to act right and be moral simply because it’s our duty (and don’t get me started on trying to do the same but approaching it from a monotheistic angle, lol). Some people just simply don’t care and will always prioritise their whims over everyone else’s wellbeing, and knowing when to stop trying is necessary not to get too frustrated. 🤷😔
