Well I’m sorry I made you write all that, but I do really appreciate you writing “Putin is a piece of shit”, no matter how childish or crazy I may seem to you.
Also, I don’t remember whether in the earlier chat we had some day you actually said that as well. You very well may have, I remember someone saying that at some point, but my short term memory fucking sucks nowadays. But Davel definitely has never answered me.
I don’t see how you could say that any capitalism is favourable to another brand of capitalism. Well, except for perhaps saying that Western capitalism is definitely favourable to capitalism with Asian values, which is essentially capitalism deprived of individual freedom and monopolised by the state, ie authoritarian capitalism taking advantage of Western markets. Watch the video, Slavoj Zizek really has a bette handle on economical philosophy than I do.
There is a lot of war beside class war. Mainly, people doing actual war in places with war. Like Ukraine. Now you could never imagine that a European country (yes Russia is technically one too but let’s ignore that for a while) would actually manage to organise an invasion of another European country with soldiers who don’t even know they’re going to invade another country. “Special Military Operation”. Imagine, idk, Germany pulling that on France? Sure, 100 years ago. But today? You just wouldn’t be able to do that. 100 years ago the populace was still less educated and easier to manipulate. Much like much of Russia’s population and pretty much all of North Korea’s. If those were educated westerners, they’d have never bought into the propaganda of their respective nations and they couldn’t have organised such military efforts.
Is there shitty western propaganda? Yes. Do western countries have a lot of fault and some even actively warmonger? Yes. But is our active worry Western countries? No. (Well, aside from the US because of Trump.) Is our main worry really Russia at the moment? I think so, yeah.
