I don’t get the point of this comparison with China unless you also look at Chinese computer industry in the same time period.

Whatever criticism you may have of the USSR’s rate of adoption how is this comparable to the Chinese experience in the 21st century? China can only have a computer industry at all because of the decades they spent being friendly with the west, having all their factories at home and proactively not giving a shit about patents and copyright.

If the USSR had the opportunity to have iPhone factories in Moscow perhaps history would be different too otherwise what is the point?

A staple of Sci-fi like Star Trek is that not just power generation, but storage and transmission are also trivial. They have any number of ways to transmit energy across large distances, between ships etc.

As an example, this already exists: In a First, Caltech’s Space Solar Power Demonstrator Wirelessly Transmits Power in Space

I imagine one of the ways for planet level energy generation would be solar panels in space and transmitting to earth somehow. I don’t know whether that is feasible IRL anytime in the next 200 years but in a “sci fi setting” its probably the most reasonable idea that is not just “magic” IMO.

So maybe one realy big solar panel array, or a planet wide coverage of many smaller arrays coordinated for sharing load with dozens of transmission points down to Earth would be my solution to your question.

What you’re asking is for everyone to talk in the same eloquance as how Normam Finkelstein describes Israeli society., here(@2:00), again and again He makes all the points you’re doing here.

Yes it would be much better if we had more people who are capable of actualy pointing out the problem is also the zionist society rotten core as he says, all these polls etc are undeniable. It is a testament to human depravity how an entire society can justify such violence by these opinion margins.

Yet as he says even briefly, the leftist principle to not say people are inherently evil or to separate the state and society, it is a huge barrier even for most normal people who are liberals and civility pilled. Racism is the only way which this truly is allowed, otherwise the neoliberal consensus is that the west is “civilized”. Israel is a western civilized country, they can never be trully evil, just temporarily doing something wrong.

My particular point was the fucking context.

Your comment = “haha who cares about an emoji, touch grass”

My comment =“Actualy, it wasn’t just an emoji, it was because suddenly Admin-mod policy happened to agree with the Trump admin, it was a bad look and made people unconfortable”

Your comment =“lol weirdo the context was indeed just an emoji, touch grass”

Now you want to discuss? Sure. For the record I wasn’t even particularly involved in that struggle either btw. But your comment was indeed dismissive of the broader context. It wasn’t just an emoji, it is literaly agreeing with the Trump admin.

Do you expect to shame me? Yes actualy, if your “opinion” happens to agree with the Trump admin you are very close to making a pro-zionist argument. You disagree? Suit yourself but don`t come here with the self-righous BS “oh but if it were me I would have banned you”. Who are you threatening? Take the head out of your ass.

If you`re confident in your opinion, make a post right now, relitigate this with the userbase, try to convince us is just a fucking emoji. Otherwise stfu, admit we mostly don’t agree with you and take a bow out.

Oh shut the fuck up then, I am literaly telling you why it happened and your first response is to get defensive and calling names.

Stop with the self rightousness shit, take your contributions and shove it. If your “opinion” is siding with the Trump zionist admin you can indeed go fuck yourself.

There were people in the emoji thread calling the admins/mods zionists. If I saw someone calling me a zionist over my opinion on an emoji I would just instantly ban you.

Pretty tasteless comment without context. The discussion only happened and found significant support from users because these opinions suddenly went straight jumping from being on top of the fence to siding with Trump zionist admin.

Without this context, sure who fucking cares about an emoji right. But when your “opinion on an emoji” happens to side with the fascist Trump admin then the context is very different. Usualy this isn’t an issue because 'Murica freedom shit burning the flag free speech all that nonsense… except when it doesn’t and suddenly there could be real world consequences for burning a flag.

If you don’t care about this context it says more about yourself than you realize. Damn good thing you don’t care to be a moderator it seems.

IDK in the EU at least they`ll bother wasting time making shit laws while moving to the right.

In the US they wont bother with this, chuds will just show up armed and start shooting local libraries because they saw Capital on one of the shelves.

I’ll go by parts, I hope this is helpful to you.

BRICS, Imperialim, economy:

BRICS is a bunch of worthless nationalist garbage grifters. There are strong arguments to be made BRICS serves as nothing but the interests of sub-imperialism for the national capitalist class i.e major regional powers that are more concerned with securing their stake and dominance in their sphere of influence rather than making any concrete let alone principled stance against western imperialism. The actions of India, Brazil, South Africa speak for themselves. Even when directly opposed by the west these countries still seek cooperation(e.g Brazil tried to veto Cuba into BRICS, SA-China collaborate with Israel, India-Russia are nationalist fascists etc…)

Russian internal economic policy during the has shown they have no long term desire to move away from the neoliberal capitalist consensus. The war economy didn’t lead to any social economic shift, there is no path towards government ownership and to socialism. The Russian Central Bank continues supreme, enacting the same policies as their western enemies. Its true the war gave a huge boost to the economy, it was a giant gift by the west, both unemployment and wages are down, more investment etc. But this is not turning into a path towards anything. You can read more e.g MR’s blog.

Ukraine:

There is a lot you can and should research about this for a deeper understanding, you can start with this. Its Washington Post 2021

Everyone except Gov controlled regions want to side with Russia

The majority blames either Ukraine or Ukraine-Russia equaly. Additionaly a sizeable part understands the NATO-US role too. The Russia is solely to blame narrative is a tiny minority overall.

There are a dozen more articles from 2014 detailing the nazi training etc, I wont link them all, just look yourself

Russia was right to invade Ukraine as a last resort to the 2014-2022 Donbass crisis. If might makes right it certainly didn’t happen before at least 2 failed negotiation attempts and thousands of civilians being murdered by Nazis with no liberal-western actualy giving a shit.

Will Russia annex the new legal territories? Probably and justifiably. The population there literaly already tried to move away from Ukraine, its literaly separatists, they literaly hate Azov and the western Ukrainian nazis. If a Russian flag is the only thing that saves them then who is anyone to complain? Oh no my wholesome BRICS country can’t do anything that embarrasses me? Why because the wholesome UN opposes it? Even China supported Russia’s side so did Cuba, Vietnam etc.

Innocent Ukrainians suffer? Yeah but its a country that fostered Nazism and couldn’t stand against it nor western influence. Zelensky was elected on a platform for peace and conciliation with Russia. It sucks to suck but anyone who wants to support “Ukraine” should at least recognize the west-US is even more responsible for this outcome. Peace in Ukraine starts with the US getting the fuck out of it.

The resistance, DPRK:

Russia’s participation in the context of BRICS and the “axis of resistence” has been a complete and utter disappointment at best, our hopes certainly didn’t amount to anything substantial. Syria and Iran are blamed on Assad incompetence and “Iran didn’t ask for help” or some nonsense. Its not the global south powers that are ever responsible for anything, but the local governments when they inevitably fail. Russia-China do nothing but play both sides for years, decades even, though at least Russia gives more material support to Iran they also have a positive history with Israel, the geopolitical dispute is not necessarily ideological. Check for yourself.

As for the DPRK alliance, it arises out of pragmatism because quite honestly, China is completely worthless stand for nothing idiots. If the US bombs the DPRK, China would likely just send a strong worded letter to the UN. So unfortunately they have no choice but to pick the only country that is actually willing to fight the west. The DPRK leveraged aid in Ukraine since the DPRK is actualy based and doesn’t give a fuck about western opinion, they’ll gladly pick a side.

The DPRK was correct in doing whatever its necessary to protect themselves from US aggression. Russia is lucky to be able to exploit this. Its not deeper than an alliance out of convenience.
