Top Investor [Marc Andreessen of Andreessen Horowitz] Says AI Startups Are Filled With Saboteurs Trying to Destroy Them From the Inside
Example of someone being banned from Hexbear pretty much for saying "somehting is going on with the Uyghurs" – https://hexbear.net/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=13910
It's hard for americans to shake essentialist views about race and come to a Marxist understanding –
- Their conservatives have essentiallist racist views
- The liberal 白左 aren't interested in coming to a correct view – "Our dogmatists are lazy-bones" – they're interested in showing off how good a person they are by howling idealist noises on social media
Both their propaganda mills are pushing them to divide the working class based on race; getting to a correct, structuralist understanding of race is hard.
Also Americans are insular and can't understand that the world ≠ America
Mao is definitely the best path out: the Little Red Book, the Mass Line, On The Correct Handling of Contradictions Among The People.
Mate you are not American
I think about this quote a lot with regard to the hexbear-type thing of trying to make this hybrid of socialism (i.e economic reform) and american identity politics. Like trying to mix Maoism with this "KKKracka lol" stuff
It's not just this one quote either. A core idea of Maoism is to unite people along class lines only. See also On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People.
"Protect cryptocurrency investments so Black men who make them know their money is safe" – Guess who said it
Death to clickbait.
Especially in video form where you can't easily skim.
The internet is not a good experience no more.
