Settler-colonisers coping and seething; may those tears give humanity strength.

These lot appear to have made a name for themselves running imperialist propaganda about threat of certain "state actors":

GT Voice: CrowdStrike outage calls for reflection on who is real threat

For those who may have further questions, it is important to note that as one of the most important cybersecurity companies in the US, CrowdStrike has made almost no attempt to expand its business in the Chinese market. Instead, it has often made baseless attacks and accusations against China and Chinese companies. Because of this, many Chinese companies don't use CrowdStrike's software.

For instance, the company said in its latest annual cyber threat report that last year, "China-nexus adversaries continued to operate at an unmatched pace across the global landscape, leveraging stealth and scale to collect targeted group surveillance data, strategic intelligence and intellectual property."

However, the company's strategy of smearing and excluding China has unexpectedly made the country one of the least affected major economies in the latest tech outage.

And yet too many people still believe that inflation is primarily due to "too much money chasing too few goods" (and therefore need to stiff the working classes of their income some more).

Harris' personal problem: the internalisation of white supremacist imperialist politics.

In an alternative timeline she would have been better off internalising Frantz Fanon's "Black Skin, White Masks" instead.

Sounds as suspiciously sourced as the Statistics School of Stéphane Courtois

Fascism at the service of the American Empire.

Democrats are more keen on being complicit in a genocide than beating Trump. Bourgois electoralism at its finest.

My whole life, I've only had one client: the people.

Which people?

Rather than breakdown everything you said which will not be fruitful and will look like a personal attack, instead I am just going to pick out one thing.

I know, Elon Musk is akin to Thomas Edison, clearly not Nikola Tesla. But i don’t have an answer to the argument that “his” many discoveries would have happened many years later without him. Hence why i can only feel grateful.

For the sake of your personal growth you need to figure out what is wrong with that sentiment.

EM is a reactionary transphobic white supremacist filth parading his version of crypto-eco-fascism. His main inadvertent highlight is saying the quiet bit out aloud and exposing liberals (including "left-liberals") for what they really are. His admirers include fascists around the world from South/central American gusanos to the Indian hindutva cowards. He is also a proud amplifier of the genocide against palestinians to boot.

Ok, i don’t want to annoy anyone here, sorry if i did, and thanks for not banning me, this sub doesn’t like contradictions very much.

If his past successes don’t make you believe in his ability for more successes in the future, then you’re entirely free to believe so ! As i wrote in the selftext : let’s wait until China does its own androids, perhaps only then will Lemmygrad begin to praise this technology.

The US has some of the most advanced technology in the world. Do you think therefore it is the closest to achieving communism? If you don't then why not?

Furthermore, is a billionaire's "successes" his to appropriate? Who created his capital? Why does he own others' labour to exploit?

The “Fully Automated Luxury Communism” dream, embraced more by pundits with cushy lives than working people, also reveals a dark truth: western “socialists” have some awareness that a more equal world will mean losing first-world privileges. They cannot conceive of things getting better steadily and slowly, with hard work. And so they are forced to denigrate the Chinese road of self-sacrifice in favour of leisure-driven utopianism. The reality is that the victory of the working class over the capitalist class will usher in an era of hard but rewarding work, as opposed to hard work without reward.

I am not asking you to answer these questions here. This is not a debate-bro gotcha. This is an invitation for exploration, further reading and potential self-reflection; giving you the benefit of doubt you are sincere (I'm ignoring your last comment).

I thought this was a parody too.

Maybe OP needs to do more reading and if they are a labour aristocrat maybe should further develop their class consciousness?

Further reading to consider:

It's almost as if the economic "science" for the justification of neoliberalism is ad-hoc.
