You can hide an intermittent mesh networking device in anything with a solar panel, it’s not that easy to triangulate users if the communications are intermittent (although that itself doesn’t play nicely with consumer devices.

Satellite internet is not a good option, it’s easy to block and easy to spot people using it.

Maintaining links to the global Internet is easier to do if you’re hiding your transmission inside other things, but that’s easier said than done.

It’s ok they are a minority, hence the downvotes, I just wish Lemmy would auto hide/fold comments below -3.

Tankies are just nationalists for other countries, it’s why they’re so boring and predictable in their retoric and have no problem dehumanizing anyone they disagree with, especially women. They claim to be “socialist” or “communist”, but really they’re just MLs who worship Stalin (& other dictators) not because of any progress they achieved in the countries they dictated (it was often minimal beyond an initial boom due to getting rid of the previous dictator) but because they said cool rhetoric against the West (often while collaborating with Western capitalists or even Nazis).

They’re also loud and unpopular, the way we beat them on Lemmy is simply to grow the userbase of normal users to the point where the tankies posting their insane takes is just background noise.

As much as I hate the tankies that love the IRCG because they are too dumb to understand that two things can be bad.

I think western meddling would also be bad, so far Mosad has taken responsibility ISIS style (it’s a win-win for them, the more paranoid and brutal Iran act the better they look)

That’s not ironic, people didn’t confuse Reddit for Digg, it wasn’t a even Digg clone nor did it pretend to be one.

Same as Hitler got for the Putsch, not sure this is enough, but weeks love to hear what Koreans think, is his base broken?

Who said I’m against it?

Recognizing the material factors that led to it’s creation, doesn’t make me opposed to it.

I don’t think you can get sued for using a trademark as long as your use doesn’t confuse people into thinking you are the original.

But your poster said they were socialist now.

There is a strong correlation between the use of (internal) migrant workers and preventing work place organizing, wether it’s the US, EU, UK, China or Dubai.

It’s uncontroversial to say this about the expansion of the EU, yet for some reason people are in denial about the same tactic being used in China just because they have a red flag.

That’s a nice fantasy but not connected to reality, as impressive as China’s HSR network is (largely by necessity to make sure there is a large enough migrant workforce available to break any worker organizing), car ownership is on the rise: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-024-03173-4

Also Tankies argue about developing productive forces via capitalism, keeping prices artificially high doesn’t help with that, but Tankies say a lot of dumb shit so I guess it’s to be expected.

Your poster says China is socialist yet now you’re saying China will be socialist in 2035, you’re moving the goalposts quicker than Mao during the cultural revolution.

Tankies: China must go through it’s capitalist phase to achieve true communism in 2069

CCP: woah there, don’t want too much capitalism making stuff too cheap.

Do you have examples?

Because most of what you are listing is stuff that has been using ML for years (possibly decades when it comes to meteorology) and just slapped “AI” on as a buzzword.

I doubt it, seems like he’s saying this while forces aligned with him are killing kurds is just to persuade suckers (e.g Tankies).

You’re claiming they are socialist, yet the MoP are not in control of the workers, if you had read any theory you’d understand that an essentially capitalist system of social relations in which workers have no control & real unions are killed, is not socialism.

you would know that capitalism is required before doing socialism

Total cope, given far more transformative projects have taken place in regions without the level of capital the CCP has access to.

One point of tension is that under a system where you still need to get paid to get things needed to survive/enjoy life, any organization outside of the state will be incentized to only do what they have to do and have the workers have more freetime (either for leisure or other work), whereas salaried state employees would use that time for improvements.

My gut tells me this is a trade-off worth making but it might not be, perhaps it makes more sense to have state monopolies, maintained by the state as then additional capacity gets put towards improvements.

I’ve just not seen state enterprises turnout that well, wether it’s the NHS or the Soviet economy outside of wartime, I don’t agree with the capitalist critique that workers have no incentive to perform well at their jobs, because the USSR/NHS didn’t/doesn’t have a flat pay structure, so my best theory is the alienation of people from their labor is a huge factor. And this is also supported by my personal experiences as well as those of people I know who work in the NHS.

TL;DR it’s a good question that hopefully one day we will have the opportunity to figure out.

They have different visions for the party, but it’s a democratic party so that’s fine, this is just the first time UK press have seen a democratic party so are acting like it’s some sort of schism!

The Nazi fans are going to get off OJ style, we all know they are violent pieces of shit that are a threat to public safety, but the cops faked their evidence for no good reason.

The state owning the mop isn’t communism that’s just state-capitalism.
