Varoufakis is just one of many people who have come up with fancy new terms for capitalism and imperialism. It's not to say that he doesn't have an important perspective on some things, but coming up with new terms for things defined over a century ago only serves to distract.
Between basically every process being done on paper, and most of the civil servants having no idea what an operating system is, I'm sure this will go great.
It's kinda standard but Pihole is how I got into the general realm of home labbing.
Private property.
Russia would revive the conflict because western libs project all of their own faults onto the enemy of the day.
The only Democracy™️ in the Middle East everyone.
The trend to shutting out China from the west started with Obama's "Pivot to Asia." At this point the only point of contention between US ruling elites is whether China or Russia is the primary threat.
It's like Rosa Luxembourg put it over a century ago: the choice we have is between socialism or barbarism.
Or, to paraphrase MLK and other mid-century Black activists, the white liberal is the biggest block in the way of genuine progress.
If we want to exclude athletes from international competition just because the ruling class in the country they happen to have been born in undertakes military action, that's fine. We just have to be consistent about it. I'd like to see athletes from the US, Isreal, UK, France, Canada, and many other countries treated the same way the west is currently treating Russian and Belorussian athletes.
Cixin Liu. Not only is the Remembrance of Earth's Past trilogy (Three Body Problem) epic, his short stories are really fun reads.
This reminds me in broad strokes of the thesis of Sakai's Settlers, which is roughly contemporary. In the introduction Sakai similarly calls out social sciences like "African American studies" and "Asian American studies" for what they are, the societal position and historiography of these peoples from the perspective of the white settler. Settlers thus aims to discuss the white settler in similar terms, ie. as the subject of such "science."
