Political rants

The problem is that mob mentality only leads to the late-stage. History proves so. We can do reforms, we should. But we aren't getting reforms under this demagogy of "making justice for x people" or "giving dignity to y people". It will only lead to Revolution or Counter-Revolution. It just doesn't work as people want to. That's what they must understand. And remember by "we", I mean people in general. We ain't from the same country, chief. Nah, nah. By LARPers, I mean people who try to be from another country or culture just to masturbate their ego. Like the neonazis (mostly mixed, like me) forcing their near-inexistent Germanic roots or some CRT-fans forcing their also near-inexisten African roots to push their own narrative. As for Idealism, my only issue is when they get into power or have actual voice in society (most of them incite rebellion and chaos. True, exceptions exist). These people do more harm than good.

Oh yeah, I know what you mean. The moment this same guy opened up about his spiritual beliefs, I knew it was going to happen. https://i.ani.me/0316/8576/screen_shot_2021-11-25_at_12.07.41_pm.png

Well, one of the hallmarks of fascism is to draw upon a forgotten vague something or other rooted in your ancestral or racial pride. They do cross over with nationalists of course who do that too. Generally fascists are more at the expense of others though. I have some pride in my Irish Welsh, German, Scotch Irish ancestry. I just don't think its something other than a "Well, that's neat." In reality though, a lot of pushes that progressives are reaching for aren't that far out of where we're already at. We had welfare in this country which we needed to get out of the great depression. Most of us just want that again. Particularly those of us who got screwed over by the bank bailouts in 2008 and 2011. But you know those groups that piggy back off of us. Give them an inch, and they go full Stalin over it. The only reason we call welfare socialism is because that's what the right has fear mongered us as. Rather than spend hours explaining the differences between welfare, social democracy and socialism over and over again, we were just like "Fuck it, we're 'socialist' now. Just make medication affordable again." That was a mistake, cause now it's communism to want a healthcare system that isn't a joke compared to the rest of the world. And some of these zoomers just don't get the joke.

It's not wrong to want a better system that wouldn't screw stability. My idea is that Stability and Prosperity should be held above the People. It's just like when people from the Right learn that the current American political panorama is hopeless. Those who want concrete reform will not be heard by mobs or the media, no. It'll be the virulent Reactionaries or Populists that will, and since the Right is (and should( be opposed to this chaotic progressivism, msm will label any anti-GOP Right as Fascist or the current Alt-Right.

Unrelated: China will never topple the US completely without soft power (aka, how their culture influence outside). China lacks soft power. What in China influences our or your culture? Japan has soft power, SK has soft power, Mexico has some soft power, too. Hong Kong has more soft power than China, and it's are part of China.

Hey don't be so sure about yourself on that. China has a lot of influence, especially over US media. Remember Blizzard/Activision simped so hard for China, they were willing to throw Hong Kong protestors under the bus. Disney was so crazy about making that China money, they low key supported the concentration camps. I'd say Japan is losing power over our culture, because there is plenty of people from the West Coast who are actively against them and making it their own. You know ever since Sony moved their headquarters to California, they were super pro censorship and threw dozens of Japanese out of their own gaming department. Games that suffered from the top of my head, Senran Kagura, Labyrinth W, Spirit Hunter, and most visual novels. Anime is also endangered by West Coast's culture. Most dubs of unpopular animes are highly censored, unneeded added politics, and worse of all cancelled like "Interspecies Reviewers". Which mind you the was pushed to be cancelled in Japan's own national soil, by those very same people. https://img.ifunny.co/images/396770616975f1f06885e0d38a226e88bf116a055a64975413575c9e48a70de8_1.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EbAPGsSWsAEhNJN.jpg

No. Them wanting China's assets is China's hard power in action. What of Chinese culture attracts other peoples that Hong Kong writers couldn't do?

Saying no, doesn't prove my references wrong. Chine writers isn't everything. Games, Movies, and Anime is what is really being consumed. Heck they indoctrinate our celebrities. Remember John Cena, simping for China for that sweet social credit? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH_XIt-hm2Y
