How can an anarchist be authoritarian? Anarchy seeks to abolish all institutions and authoritarianism is institutions on steroids so they seem mutually incompatible to me.
Yeah I’ll take a “dictatorship” like China if it means we get socialized Healthcare, 25,000 miles of high speed rail, affordable housing and nationalization of corporations who have received billions if not trillions in subsidies. American “democracy” certainly hasn’t delivered on any of that.
Ask the Uyghurs how that's working out for them. Anyone who thinks a fascist dictatorship doesn't eat whoever they want is lying to themselves. If you're not a party man (and even if you are that isn't a bulletproof vest) you're not going to have a life worth living.
I bet nazi germans were cool with living in the reich, too. Just look at all those jewish companies they were given! Who wouldn't want that. /s
Weird how cities used eminent domain to bulldoze entire black and Hispanic neighborhoods to build highways yet can’t use eminent domain to get some rich assholes overpriced real estate for this.
I'm in the 'don't respond if they contact us' camp. I've seen 3 Body Problem and read enough history to know what happens to the lower technological society.
If we're going by Lower Decks lore then we just need to not have those gastro-horrors programmed into the menu. Only the bridge crew are authorized to even gaze upon this unholy abomination.
The center's reach extends beyond rescue. The system supports filtered searches by gender, age and clothing type — a search for "April 29, male, Mapo," for example, pulls up footage of every adult male who crossed Mapo Bridge that day, helping police map the movement routes of suspects. All data is strictly managed under the Personal Information Protection Act and deleted after one month.
Emphasis mine. Who thinks they actually delete those records?
And trump is the one who said “take their guns with no due process” not biden.
