Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism. They stick together because they are symptoms of the same illness. I too long for the day when the U.S empire is just a distant bad memory, tavarish.

I find that when there are others involved in a project, I tend to be much more productive. I don’t know if it’s fear of disappointing other people, but just having people relying on me doing my part makes my not wait til the last minute

Literately 1984?

I would assume it’s transmitting data by pulsing a laser. Kinda like an optical data cable.

It’s probably a mix of many different views, but there’s probably a lot of Marxist leninists here. Me included.

Very few people are totally against working in general, it’s more that they’re against the current system of work/employment.

Marxism is in large a criticism of the employer employees relation. Or capitalist proletariat relation as it would be called in marxist terms. The critique is in in short terms pointing out the the fact that the workers themselves don’t own the means of production, and has to sell their labour to a capitalist, whom in turn takes the surplus value (created by the workers) for himself.

I can’t possibly write all Marxist theory on the topic here, but if it seems interesting, I would recommend reading up on it, or watching videos by well informed creators. Hakim (@yaboihakim on YouTube) is a great source of information on Marxism. And the communist manifest by Karl Marx is a very short and easily available book that has a great introduction to communism.

Hope this helps. And im happy to answer if you got more questions!

So… how do I subscribe to communities on hexbear? or am I misunderstanding something here?

China had/has sanctions on import/export of coal, some petroleum products as well as some textiles. I haven’t read any statements about the their sanctions from China, so I don’t know why.

It seems to come from a UN resolution, but I’m not sure

I sincerely hope that you guys are organizing a union as well. Although your strategy of pranking/scaring the managers and bosses probably work and are funny too, forming a union can do so much more in terms of salary, working conditions and worker participation in workplace policy making.

Anyways, thumbs up for keeping the bosses on their toes!
