To me it makes me think of the intellectualization of revolutionary theory to the degree that it's no longer revolutionary, merely a means by which academics can advance their careers. I get that impression with a lot of western Marxian/critical theory from the last few decades tbh (although that doesn't mean the works don't contain interesting ideas).

A quote from Marx that I like:

The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it.

Yet some academics remain content to idly interpret while benefitting from the spoils of imperialism and colonialism.

Oooorrr it's just a comic by an anti-communist trying to point out a perceived hypocrisy so they don't have to engage with the ideas lmao

Search "beginner Russian comprehensible input" and find something that suits you. Tons of free and cheap resources

It's a signifier for a politico-economic concept, so yes. Third world is a similar signifier that also doesn't really align with its original nor intuitive meanings. Semiotics is weird like that.

Either one can be used to signify countries from which resources and labor are extracted by the Global North or something along those lines. Do they find themselves richer or poorer due to global trade?

For example, Australia, in this context, wouldn't be considered global south despite being in the southern hemisphere. Unless it was harshly colonized and became a resource trough for the USA and Europe, then its politico-economic position would change even though it obviously didn't change geographically.

throws an insult and gets insulted back

"Grow a thicker skin"

Lmao real self awareness

Lmao

I mean the idea is that good urban planning would enable shorter and more frequent grocery store trips. Rather than a supercenter supplying everyone within 30 miles, requiring long drives, you'd have things distributed by need, i.e. general food stores every couple miles, more specialist places potentially farther away. Our current layout and shopping habits are contingent on car infrastructure and massive federal subsidies.

Would also decrease waste and increase general health, since fresher, less processed food could be purchased.

Probably depends on what subculture you're in. This isn't uncommon in the rocky mountain area, in the white mormon suburbanite type demographic.

In the West Coast I saw teens working and paying rent but only in working class families because housing was so expensive. So more like helping the parents pay their landlord than the parents acting as a landlord.

Defederation probably

Fascism is a special move Capitalism uses when it's about to faint.

hell yeah it is

Of that $30.50, the person delivering the food got $3 and the person making the food got $2.

I do that kinda shit all the time with my personal scripts, mistakes happen.

This happened quite a few times on Reddit with multiple bots.
