Not really, they can be super simple if your goal isn’t world domination through capital, genocide, and slavery.

Fascist countries like the US need forever enemies to exist. For a while it was native Americans, then black people, but when those toys were mostly taken away, then it was anyone that dared to question the role of capital in government, then terrorists, now it’s china.

The problem being china has more capital than the US, and is capital owners spent the last century using china to extract the absolute most amount of wealth from Americans. So companies stopped the US from really treating china like a proper forever enemy.

In other words capitalism ruins everything, even fascism which is based on capitalism.

Wrong wording, graphic novel is what I meant, the best manhuas and mangas are as good as the best western and south American style comics. I was trying to lump them all together in one phrase and forgot visual novels were a thing.

Stevia is the medically ‘safest’ artificial sweetener. If your body can handle it, and you can get used to the awful taste. But unless you’re using it to transition away from artificially sweetened things altogether, its best to avoid it.

Just crush some fruit into whatever you’re trying to make sweet, or add some neutral honey. That’s worked for tens of milenia, its just as good today.

All three are 90% trash, 8% good for wasting braincells and 2% among the best in the format of graphic novel.

That being said the manhua style of vertical scrolling to read is better than any other format for vertical screen devices. After getting used to it (and getting a reader than can cache fast enough to keep up) reading manga and ebooks just feels incredibly clunky and unintuitive.

That being said the monetary schemes for manhua/hwa are sometimes ridiculously predatory. If you want to read ethically you better have some serious money, especially for longer series with shorter chapters.

I mean I fully squat on public and unused private land in accordance with international squatting ideology, but most Americans believe property has more rights than humans could ever, and are willing to kill someone instantly if they violate those supposed property rights, so its extremely unlikely they’ll do anything until after the total collapse of the US. Even then most of them will still uphold private property above true commons or even other humans, completely missing the point of existence.

Unfortunately there’s this thing called property rights which prevent people from living where the disasters aren’t, unless they shell out exponentially more money year by year.

That’s primarily why most people on lemmy that critically support the CCP post; to get people to realize their reflexive EvIlCHiNaMeNcOmMiEs bad is influenced by the propaganda they’ve been consuming for decades.

Its a democratic state made up of more people than the entirety of North America and Europe combined. There is no magic brainwashing power that exists in any version of our reality that affects 1.4 billion humans perfectly. So either they’re not people or maybe most of them genuinely enjoy their country and the good it’s managed to do for them.

Oh and since this is ml and facts can be said; the uighur population isn’t under going genocide. We know what a 21st century genocide looks like in a fascist state. The few thousand (out of tens of millions) arrested and allowed reeducation for legitimately going to Afghanistan and becoming terrorists does not a genocide make.

Or they have undiagnosed ADHD and haven’t associated the effect of nicotine with their seminormality mask they can only maintain with legal stimulants.

Yeah you really don’t want a large population of people with nothing to lose start realizing they’ve nothing to lose. Striking, in the modern world, doesn’t exist. Picket lines and stopping work isn’t striking. Blowing up police stations and openly killing government and corporate employees is striking.

All populations eventually get to that point if mistreated.

That’s not how a proper pension is structured, and given we’ve hard far more dependents per worker in modern history than is possible with a declining birth rate it’ll be economically fine.

Old people cost less than kids.

Do you have a five year old phone or CPU? Congrats, you have the same performance of Chinese chips. Except you paid 10x more

Well hell froze over, Elon finally has a single correct take.

They have been. Jewish voice for peace has been protesting Israel since before most people have been born, and most Orthodox Jews have always protested zionism, since it’s an anti Jewish religion.

Could more protest? Sure, but that’s true of any group. Why did Americans protest American border policy for under trump but not Obama or biden.
