  • The USSR existed back then and the USSR was doing very well at the time up until 1975,
    right after the petrodollar scheme was made and SWIFT was introduced.
    Because of that, the US had strong labour unions.
    Socialism was popular back then,
    although the US was also able to propagandize that it was explicitly not doing that in the slightest.

    Nowadays, the US will have to fight again against capitalism.
    And capitalists are warring to survive, not just abroad,
    but at home as well.
    Their ideology currently is that capitalism has won,
    communism has lost and therefore any concessions to the left
    will no longer have to be made.

    And US Social democracy isn’t coming from the top this time,
    when FDR decided to take a turn for the left and continued going left,
    up until Jimmy Carter was replaced by Ronald Reagen.

    This time it’s coming from Zohran Mamdani
    and this time it looks like it’s taking the form of democratic socialism,
    a step more to the left than social democracy.

    With better job availibility, your father would have had a much easier time
    maintaining a good income and thus a family.
    You however, would have a trade-off.
    Better job security, but little to no knowledge of your sexuality.
    Also terrible medical practises, barbaric in some fields.


  • It’s amazing how many times I saw this knowledge being spread, together with thousands of umbrellas and hard hats during the Hong Kong riots from day one with “Hong Kong, add oil” as their first slogan combined with very mild mannered arguments (we don’t know if it could lead to more serious things) against the extradition law which was supposed to affect maybe half a dozen people per decade, all serious criminals. A law almost every country has on earth that the US used against the daughter of the owner of one of the largest companies in the world, for the flimsiest of reasons, in contrast to the walled-off-to-arrest-one-particular-teen-girl-axe-murderer-to-be-shipped-to-Taiwan-law Hong Kong tried to implement.

    How many people have been affected by the Alien Enemies Act again?

    And how did the The protests were call “No kings” remember that? Remember that it was called NO KINGS “Unbiased. Straight. Facts” SAN? Do you remember that? No? Okay, well… “anti-ICE” it is protests go?

    Because apart from the shocker that you were being surveilled, I think the protests needed a little bit less “Zero demands, not one more” chants and a little more ‘We demand and protest until we win and get what we want’ kind of thing.



    1. Vasectomies (+ birth control pills)
    2. animal testing for human research.
    3. I’m sure that anyone working in a hospital can cough up a few dozen more.

    RISUG has been invented in 1978,
    is reversable, cheaper, zero side effects,
    and with so far 0% failure rate when implemented properly,
    Vasalgel, an improvement on RISUG by having a longer shelf-life,
    has been invented around 2015.

    So this stuff has been invented in the same year as the first Star Wars movie,
    had gone through all trials multiple times with flying colors,
    and instead we use knives and pills with large side effects.

    If any invention could be been ubiquitous in use at a much earlier stage,
    then this would be it.
    It could and should have been widely used by the 1980’s.

    For animal testing we have 3D printed human tissue.
    So why test on animals if your question is “Does this stuff work on human tissue?”
    The answer you’ll be getting is whether or not it works on mice.
    Mice are not human.
