The UI is such a shame. Inkscape and Krita’s UI are so intuitive too

Kinda impressive tbh as irrelevant as this is, mandarin’s pretty hard to learn as a second language

This. If you actually want positive change, go out and join a socialist org to take direct action. In capitalist states — specially imperial core ones — elections are just an ad campaign that won’t bring any positive change for workers on its own.

Elections will, however, gradually shift to the far-right as long as liberals/capitalists are in power (see: overton window).

Typical liberal rejecting any shift to the left in favour of fascists.

It’s great that the LFI managed to come this far even within a liberal framework, but real change has only ever come from organizing and applying pressure from outside the capitalist system to overthrow it. This should be a signal to french comrades to start organizing for that.

Very common actually

TIL China’s Chunwan/Gala is the most watched television program in the world. Damn.

Acknowledging the downvotes doesn’t make this comment any less cringe or misinformed lol

This is the best “treatment” a capitalist shithole can give for mental health.

We live in a dystopia

Cutting Through the BS on Xinjiang by BadEmpanada is highly detailed with sources in the description.

You could also watch through the countless videos of people travelling through Xinjiang on YouTube and seeing… that it’s just a regular place in China.

Xinjiang also gets more foreign tourists than Spain at over 250 million a year, so you could genuinely just go there and see for yourself lol; there’s no more restrictions on travel there than any other place in the country now that Covid is mostly over.

Seems like both the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and Muslim countries in general that have sent delegates to Xinjiang agree western propaganda about it is false too ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The only ones propagating these claims are imperial core countries that have actually invaded and colonized Muslim nations as you’d expect lol

I like how this zionist author is trying to draw parallels between the Palestinian resistance and the separatist group the US created in Xinjiang through Afganistan lmao

Claiming both are “Islamist terrorism”, which is an ironic thing to say considering israel’s support of their fellow US proxy

They won’t, not now anyway. The Soviet Union went as far as to fund wars against “israel”, but China is clearly far more interested in Socialism In One Country and forming amicable ties with the rest of the world — including the capitalist shitstates — rather than spreading socialism like the USSR did.

Not necessarily a bad thing since I understand where they’re coming from (and we know which of the two have managed to prevent a capitalist counter-revolution), but god I wish they did a bit more sometimes.

Genuinely aggressive Chinese sanctions on “israel” would cripple it in months combined with Palestinian resistance, but it also would create hostility with the US, signal to the Global South that they’re willing to sanction states that don’t do what China wants like the US does, and damage their reputation of being a peaceful superpower that they’ve been building for the last few decades.

They would be condemning the Viet Cong for using the exact same strategies Hamas does (taking hostages, using tunnels and guerilla warfare, etc) and having the same goal of driving out an occupying force to reunite their country, yet they had the audacity to pretend like they’re antizionist.

Campus protests and the pigs dispersing them are also paralleling the Vietnam war.

The blue team is slightly better at pinkwashing their imperialism though

Why is there a nazi community on a lemmy instance

Kinda. Nigeria is doing the same. Apparently they’re easier to work with.

Makes sense; Russia’s foreign interests have mostly remained aligned with the Global South against the US even after capitalists overthrew the USSR.

“Settler” is about as disgusting as a pejorative can get.

It’s in the name

Travel to the mainland has been made more compelling by new infrastructure that cut travel times in half between the cities, a booming array of entertainment choices and low prices

But he added the integration could raise questions about the city’s identity

B-but what about… checks notes… Hong Kong’s unique identity of overpriced goods and services 😢
