The KHIVE is here to correct the record on her prison slave labor scandals, defense of white supremacist cops, disproportionate jailing of black people, and staunch support for Israel.

Kinda crazy how democrats now are just like: “Yeah, I eat a plate of shit. I don’t like it, but they told me that was the only option. So I did it, I’m proud of it, and anyone else should be ashamed to not be eating shit like me.”

The PRC commands the heights of the economy. The most important point, is that capital is deliberately permitted and restricted, only allowed in some sectors, and not allowed to rise above the state or organize as a class, as in capitalist states:

• The backbone of the economy is state ownership and socialist planning. 24 / 25 of the top revenue companies are state-owned and planned. 70% of the top 500 companies are State-owned. 1, 2 The largest bank, construction, electricity, and energy companies in the world, are CPC controlled entities, subject to the 5 year plans laid out by the central committee.
• Workplace democracy in action in the CPC.
• Is modern day china communist? Is it staying true to communist values?
• Didn’t China go Capitalist with Deng Xiaoping? Didn’t it liberalize its economy? Is China’s drastic decrease in poverty a result of the increase in free market capitalist policies?
• Is the CPC committed to communism?
• The Long Game and Its Contradictions. Audiobook
• The myth of Chinese state capitalism. Did Deng really betray Chinese socialism?

It works for the people, whereas capitalism only works for capitalists.

Just as a recent success story: the PRC has lifted more people out of poverty in the last 30 years, than any country in human history. Here’s a documentary on it if anyone’s interested.

This thread is being targeted by a lot of no-content “correct the record” fediverse accounts, upvoting pro-genocide US democratic party and Israeli talking points. Please report them so we can ban them ASAP.

Thank you to all the posters below doing great work debunking them.

If Harris had won the 2024 election, do you honestly think she would be mass deporting immigrants without a trial, starting a trade war with China, attempt to cut funding for FEMA, etc?

Of course, look at her predecessor. Obama massively increased ICE, deportations, and did a pivot to asia.

She has her own list of atrocities to account for, but most importantly, she’s pro-israel, and pro-genocide.

Yeah democrats really care about the poor.

And they totally wouldn’t increase the ICE budget, and deportations.

edit: By the way, you might want want to be a little less transparent with vote manipulation. I just banned 3 of your no-content alts.

Now go do your fucking job developing the Lemmy software, because this software is full of issues and the grownups are talking about important issues that actually have a point.

Leaving this comment up to show the titanic levels of entitlement and arrogance from the anti-communist crowd.

Even open source devs only exist to do free labor for them, we’re not people to them.

I’m actually very sympathetic to this. What the US did, and continues to do, is far worse than what the fascists of the 1920s-40s attempted.

The Nazis and Japanese fascists tried (and failed) to acheive what the US sucessfully did: the colonization and eviction of hundreds of native peoples, and clearing of an entire region for the “master race”. All under a far more stable form of government for colonialism : bourgeois democracy.

Lebensraum failed, but manifest destiny succeeded.

Not only that, but committed countless other atrocities, unparalleled in history.

Democrats somehow managed to label themselves as the “antifascist” party, while funding the worst genocide of the 2000s. Astounding

What that means in the American system is we vote against liberals in the primaries, and we vote for them against the fascists.

The democrats are also funding this genocide:

There was no Alligator Auschwitz under the Democrats.

The democrats expanded these immigrant prison camps. Some stats from the Obama era:

• Deported over 3M immigrants during his presidency, 2 Deported over 400k people in 2012 alone. Helped grow ICE, and the US mass immigrant detention system.
  • In the present day, ICE (U.S._Immigration_and_Customs_Enforcement), the police tasked with immigration enforcement, operates over 500 prison camps, holding over 34,000 undocumented people deemed “aliens”, 20,000 of which have no criminal convictions, in the US system of immigration detention. The camps include forced labor (often with contracts from private companies), poor conditions, lack of rights (since the undocumented aren’t considered citizens), and forced deportations, often splitting up families. Detainees are often held for a year without trial, with antiquated court procedures pushing back court dates for months, encouraging many to accept immediate deportation in the hopes of being able to return faster than the court can reach a decision, but forfeiting legal status, in a cruel system of coercion. After the creation of DHS and ICE, the budget for immigration enforcement doubled from $6.2 billion in 2002 to $12.5 billion in 2006 under Obama. 1, 2,3

Guantanamo Bay wasn’t a concentration camp for immigrants under the Democrats.

The democrats didn’t close their torture camp in Cuba either.

Watched the vido now. Seems these gravity battery facilities might not be as efficient (80% to pumped hydro’s 90%), but you can construct them anywhere, and don’t need a mountainous land area nearby. Nice.

The latter. Western supremacists who hate everyone the US government tells them to.

It’s dead or empty accounts from a lot of different servers, not just lemmy.world. I just banned like 20 of them.

They use api tools to target certain accounts for downvoting.

Content manipulation on the fediverse is gonna be a big issue for the foreseeable future, especially to push pro-US foreign policy points.

Such great arguments coming from the mccarthyites today.

This is a complex topic, but most marxists think that class and race aren’t extricable, but intertwined, and to try to separate them into this situation is “class struggle” and this one is “race struggle” is a false premise.

Marx also thought that he was a discoverer, not inventor of his ideas:

And now as to myself, no credit is due to me for discovering the existence of classes in modern society or the struggle between them. Long before me bourgeois historians had described the historical development of this class struggle and bourgeois economists, the economic anatomy of classes. What I did that was new was to prove: (1) that the existence of classes is only bound up with the particular, historical phases in the development of production, (2) that the class struggle necessarily leads to the dictatorship of the proletariat, (3) that this dictatorship itself only constitutes the transition to the abolition of all classes and to a classless society.

Pumped water storage is kinda a gravity battery, and it’s currently the largest stored energy source for most countries.
