Unironically great, I've been trying to integrate traditional Chinese philosophy and religion with my communist views for a long time now actually.

I've talked about this a bit on here but I think the metaphor of Taoism is correct even if the underlying explanation isn't. You can explain to children how gravity and shit works and how that causes the seasons but it's just fucking numbers. You tell them that Persephone is in Hades and Demeter is mourning her absence and they understand it perfectly. Now obviously the gods aren't literally real but meaning is often better explained by metaphor than science.

It's my sincere belief that there is lots of meaning in religion and philosophy that has yet to be discovered by science. Scientists discover universal principles, poets explain them.

on the contrary, bill nye perfectly explained axial tilt causing seasons to millions of children, and that greek myth shit is needlessly complicated and stupid as hell compared to "look at ball tilt"

a garden is perfectly beautiful on its own without talking about faeries instead of the nitrogen cycle

So many smug fascists in that thread, not surprising though

Alright, now if they could just stop expanding the private sector . . .

and kill some more billionaires

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Internally inconsistent ideology. You must keep creating billionaires so that you have a sustainable supply of billionaires to execute.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Communism doesn't work because it requires infinite executions in a finite-billionaire world.

I have good news on that front comrade.

Only time will tell if the trend continues though.

Libs: "China is a Han supremacist ethnostate that seeks to destroy all people of different ethnicities."

China: "Karl Marx is Chinese."

They digitally animated his mouth and beard. sadness

Mr. Xi, please hear me out. If the downtrodden people of the west saw practical effects and squibs reemerge in Chinese film and television, global capitalism would crumble in an instant. xi

This looks like it's supposed to be a comedy sketch show. I'd watch if it were.
