Don’t get me wrong I still think that your politics will inevitably lead to the emergence of fascism again due to the contradictions of the capitalist mode of production not being solved with nice capitalism, nonetheless you are still doing direct action against fascists which makes you a comrade.

As a neurodivergent we do not claim these individuals

I suppose it has asml which of course isn’t nothing but if Chinas advances are anything to believe that just buys them time, none of this mentions internal instability. Canada got the memo but in true European fashion they think they can defy gravity.

The eu can barely keep itself together and there is a separatist far right gaining prominence in most countries currently, with one of its members already a consolidated authoritarian regime that doesn’t play along, and it believes it can govern as a monolithic superpower?

Were these types of events broadly successful we would not have the problems they discuss every year, and they can blame policymakers all they want but their class largely controls the outcome of policy making so it’s not a particularly cogent critique.

Sociologists mostly categorize Davos and similar events not as attempts to solve collective problems but as a way for elites who benefit from the problems in society to offer solutions that don’t conflict with their own wealth and power to maintain cognitive dissonance.

I used to think you were a shit lib but you are actually doing the real work lots of “revolution now” lefties didn’t, building community organizing and mutual aid networks. Keep up the good fight man, the rest of us are rooting for you.

Gnu coreutils the Linux kernel and glibc are indespensible

From an economic perspective we see every country more or less accepting chinese evs except the us and Canada, which have levied heavy tariffs on them to protect domestic industry, which ironically is delaying the transition to more sustainable energy.

Hint: the reason is in a large part because of the very oligarchs you are going to have a circlejerk with at Davos!

I no longer view politics through the lens of left vs right (tho the left is far more right) and have mostly landed on my moral position that financialization is evil and anti human wellbeing and the betting market CEOs who want to “financialize everything” should be put in front of The Hague.

Really shows the bones of the entire economy being like fictitious speculative capital built on an ever shrinking base of real capital that needs to increase rent extraction at all costs to continue to grow. It’s also why gambling has become so big, it’s literally commodified rent extraction.

Community pushed them out.

Jensen huang said it best I think and that is whether or not policymakers like it or not China has become too indispensable to global supply chains to realistically decouple from them. We can try, but doing so only makes our own industry less competitive and spurs them to hasten development.

It was a deliberate policy with deliberate tradeoffs. You can disagree whether it’s good or even sustainable long term but pretending it’s economic mismanagement and not a deliberate strategy that has created specific very notable strategic benefits is burying the lede.
