The sequel series Dexter went in a really weird direction and ruined Dexter’s Lab for me.

That’s generally just the mold itself. While you can have competing cultures the nature of the Penicilium genus means you don’t have to really worry about bacterial growth and other mold growth would have competing colours in almost all cases for dairy products. With bread and fatty meats where you might see penicilium you are right to worry a lot more, but the nature of modern dairy means whatever spoils it tends to be monoculture as it’s generally a ‘whichever infects first has too much of a headstart to allow competition,’ when with bread and meat mold has a harder time penetrating the substance (giggity) and has much more competition respectively.

Pasteurized dairy is only vulnerable to so many pathogens that you can kinda guess what spoilage you’ll get based on sight and smell (at least down to the genus, it’s impossible to get much more specific without a full lab test).

Blue green mold on a diary product is almost always a Penicilium genus mold and probably won’t kill you.

Worst case is it gives you an incredible case of the shits which is infinitely survivable in the modern era. Best case scenario is you get a new taste and texture experience that few humans have ever been brave enough or hungry enough to experience.

Turn off transcoding and/or unify the codecs on your totally legally acquired library that you legally ripped yourself.

SWERFs love specific instances, so probably.

So I suppose in your mind all the academics Stalin had murdered all deserved it yes?

Generally yes? Exceedingly few ‘academics’ were ‘murdered’ in the USSR, are you confusing it with China who made ‘academics’ work in the fields as a way to force them to understand how their ‘lessers’ were living?

Stalin also didn’t ‘murder’ anyone. He didn’t have that authority vested to him. There are multiple historic sources showing Stalin fighting with the council to do things, which is not something a ‘dictator’ has to do. All of the purges were backed by the democratic authority, and generally well backed. The implementation sometimes went awry, because it was the 1940 and 50ss and proving identity was basically impossible.

I suppose murder in the name of the soviet state is acceptable as long they’re political enemies right?

Depending on the enemy, yes. Objectively yes. And you also believe this. The Nazis were political enemies.

I suppose the Uyghurs are all happy and definitely haven’t been persecuted or reeducated hmm?

No. They haven’t been. Again no international neutral party has ever supported the idea of a genocide happening on the Uyghur people. Not a single one. There are a handful of people, literally less than two dozen, none of which have ever been shown to live in China, that have generated the totality of claims against China during their response to the Terror attacks funded by the US and Turkey. If you believe this propaganda point, you’re doing the meme of a ‘enlightened centrist’ that doesn’t realize their ‘center’ is a heavily propagandized and heavily curated version of reality that does not line up with actual reality.

It’s also the dimension of the political compass in which authoritarians would prefer we not talk about so I talk about it as much as is feasible.

The political compass is useless. It’s the Meyers Briggs of the political world – i.e. it has no scientific backing whatsoever and Buzzfeed quizzes are objectively more accurate to the realities of the world.

The alternative to authoritarian socialism is libertarian socialism which is where any person who values both theirs and their fellow humans dignity and mutual respect would want to live.

That is just socialism. There is no difference. That is literally the basis of all socialist movements. Read any theory, read any manifesto, read literally anything any of these ‘evil dictators’ wrote. Anything. Did you know Xi Jingping has a doctorate and has published more internationally peer reviewed papers than any other world leader? Did you know he has nine books? Did you know Stalin published at least two? Did you know there is no such thing as ‘Stalinism’, a term that first appeared in the late 2000s?

There is plenty of information out there, translated to all ten major languages that over 90% of the population at this point.

When you rule with an iron fist, when there is no due process, when there is no personal representation only state representation and the ability for change that can only come from a functioning and healthy democracy; people are squashed under the boot of those in power a la Orwell’s Animal Farm. Neither of these worlds are ones I want to live in; nor do I want for any of my loved ones.

The USSR had jury trials*. China has jury trials. There is due process written into both constitutions. The reason you believe there was not is not ‘historical record’ it is simply the propaganda you were taught by a system built exclusively to dissuade you from any useful action. All revolutions will get to the stage where the people are in charge of the state – and that will require massive amounts of violence, and that will result in massive amounts of violence. Because people do not give up their power. Tomorrow, if the US were to undergo its first people-led democratic revolution, your neighbors that own land or are fans of those owning land will be subject to violence. They’re not going to give up their greed easily. Many will work with countries that are enemies of their people in order to stop the revolution. There isn’t another solution that has been proven to work, unfortunately.

• Yes, during specific war-time purges these were illegally suspended, not by Stalin, but by individual officers who lost their jobs and many were executed by the state for violating rights. As Stalin wrote he deeply regretted not dedicating more resources and not having clearer directives on how to carry out the trials of suspected nazi and US collaborators, especially in liberated lands that had extensive nazi collaboration where proving fact was difficult.

One does, actually, by the definition of ‘left-wing’ politics, exclude the other.

Horseshoe theory and other ‘enlightened centrist’ viewpoints were created solely, and I do mean solely, to disrupt class consciousness. Nearly all propaganda you believe that make the USSR or China seem bad was created by the US wholesale, with some being created by criminals given extremely cushy paychecks for life for utilizing their background to give legitimacy to stories made up by people that never left the US.

‘Intolerance,’ doesn’t enter into it. Period. There isn’t any documented accounts of that from any left wing government. Period.

Reddit is free you know.

It actually does, if they’re leftist.

Also define authoritarian in anyway that excludes any possible state you would support, and includes a state you’ve been told is authoritarian by people currently raping children in concentration camps.

Something something 40 gorillion christians killed by JEWISH bolsheviks something something 80 gorillion innocent light skinned practically white farmers murdered by the dark skinned commie dictator Mao because of his hate for their righteous struggle against the dark something something here’s a link to a National Endowment for Democracy funded site that self-cites all of its sources or cites only old british men that have never been shown to ever be within 10,000km of a chinese person.

Yes that is the popular theory post Epstein file release. Partially a joke, partially the best explanation we have for who paid the doctor to kill him. It was either the pedos or Sony, which is full of pedos.

Bro got taken out because he started exposing pedophiles. He spent his last few years being dragged in the press by parents that decided money was more important than their kids dignity or future reputation.

That level of fame essentially means you cannot possibly do actual good in the world or fight any powerful group. It’s not a level of fame where you could build a revolution, but its far too much fame to ever do anything positive in life.

You’d have to have a palestinian epstein in that case and that’d be kinda weird.

Nothing, the American populace is incapable of rebellion without bourgeois leadership telling them to rebel. Until the ruling class is splintered enough that a rebellious faction is willing to take the risk in recruiting the working class while somehow avoiding class consciousness, the US populace would never dare to go against its owners

Prepping communities have little to no knowledge on the subject which is why people avoid them and why most advice you’ll hear outside those communities is so different.

91.4% of American citizens are better educated than the founding fathers. Yes that includes pretty much all of MAGA.

About 7.25 billion people are better educated than the median American colonist as of 1776.

Education has not reduced in any way. In fact thanks to China this is the single most educated period in world history, by such a wide margin no other period can be reasonably compared to today, including the 20th century.

‘So why don’t we have blah blah people of higher calibre blah blah classist propaganda blah blah dummies’

We do have plenty of intelligent people. All of them capable of empathy have either killed themselves or are in STEM and have no interest in politics or commerce. All of them incapable of empathy are the owners of the current Amerisraeli hegemony that rules a large part of the world with indescribable amounts of violence and evil. Because most people have empathy (yes, even the ones you hate), they cannot fathom how people without empathy actually think and behave. Because a lack of empathy is an absolute necessity for success under capitalism, even in politics under capitalism, those without naturally rise to the top.

Americans especially are taught from a young age to never rebel, to never fight back, to never play dirty, to never try to change the status quo. They are taught this despite being told mythologized stories of the founders of their country doing the opposite. This naturally aligns with empathy, which effectively filters out Americans into those that will succeed in business and politics, and everyone else that will live under them, forever.

This is the only misstep in education. Not teaching the truth of the ‘founding fathers,’ and not teaching how and why they succeeded, and how and why revolutions do not ever end. Which to be fair to the last point, it took another 80 years for philosophers to realize that, after the US failed to actually be different than the kingdoms it rebelled against.

The diseases the US has been experimenting with since the 1950s, many times on its own population e.g. the Tuguskee experiments?

…The results have been terrible for the entire world besides the US.

Actually I was exclusively talking about China and SEA, not Europe. While there are a couple of European countries that are aiming towards socialism most of Europe is pretty far right.

I’m correcting your point. Yes, a lot of the US is conservative. Most of the world isn’t. Only a US-Centric viewpoint would define liberalism as anything other than a conservative old-fashioned ideology only held by people that worship nazis.
