Not everyone here is American but honestly with the way Dems are constantly punching left and compromising to the right while ignoring economic issues I doubt they’ll stop fascism

Oh please. If you were truly anti authoritarian you’d recognize that a state enforcing the will of one group over another is authoritarianism, but when it’s a side you like, you don’t call it that

And Russia is often not considered European simply because it’s fighting the West for resources… for the exact same reason Latin America is excluded from the ‘‘West’’ despite its culture

“What are we? A bunch of Asians?”

I use Helix… Uhhh idk I think it’s nice I guess

Ummm if you’re really serious about privacy wouldn’t you have already switched to GrapheneOS and Linux? Like people who actually care about this stuff avoid Google, Microsoft… and proprietary software like the plague

If surveillance is the worry shouldn’t that same skepticism apply beyond just China? I dunno it kinda feels less about privacy and more about a specific distrust, you know?

Yeah true but humans have evolved to cooperate on a large scale, unlike most primates

The violence we see today has nothing to do with culture clashes or a lack of evolution… it’s driven by inequality. And the state wasn’t created to solve coordination problems, it emerged from inequality to protect those who had too much

Yeah… people forget that ancient humans survived through cooperation long before states existed and the fights they did have were mostly just over territory and resources. Not some deep evil ‘‘human nature’’
