thats because it was made in some random server in LA based on a bunch of stuff stolen from working class artists

cringe that you support this slop

this is essentially the “if you dont like capitalism why do you exist in it

nope, its more like dont send all of your details to the people you are trying to dismantle lol, missing the point.

is it praxis now to give ad revenue to elon musk, the seig heiling guy? should we have been begging hitler for a spot in his newspapers? or should we have seized thoses presses and made our own newspaper?

defeatism, its empty because no one is there and im not going there because its empty so we’re going to continue giving zuckerburg ad revenue

i dont really understand how you propose promoting an org or doing mass communications.

1 - going outside and distributing propaganda to the public

2 - engage with your local community through activism

3 - setup your own orgs website and direct people too it

you cant use the masters tools to break the masters home comrade, mainstream social media is designed to filter people like us out and at worst suppress/hunt down people like us; take lessons from the red scare or how twitter and facebook work to suppress the working class and inform fascist regimes all over the world, if you invest into the tools of the upper class you’re just honey potting yourself.

by that logic no org member should own a phone because it could be traced, or because its produced by capitalist businesses.

not what im saying at all, you can create your own risk profile suited to what you’re doing; as an induvidual you’re still driving engagement with social media but its not the biggest deal ever

if you’re out protesting and bring your phone though? terrible OPSEC, it can be used to geolocate and prosecute you.

for a massive orgs comms?

undermines the anti-capitalist messaging a little bit when its on the front page of one of the richest people on the planet dont you think?

AND posts about it on mainstream social media

And when the fascists are in power they will have every member on those social medias sites details, well done!

Why are we giving traffic and org details to the enemy again, do you understand who owns these websites?

ineffective at best, orgs should focus instead on going outside and moving to decentralized platforms for information sharing.

host your own site, hand out leaflets, open stalls; posting on mainstream social media is a dead end and only drives engagement with fascists and people who dont go outside, neither of who are productive.

An example of what they export.

Get them all together, tell them whats up with this person and ask what they are going to do about it.

Having experienced this in the past the correct response is for them to say ‘fuck off’ to the person then kick the fucking shit out of them if its anything but ‘ok fair enough bye!’

If they wont do that they arent punks worth hanging out with, find cooler punks.

Has NK forbade literature from leaving the country, or is this an issue in the US/Western countries?

The issue the author ran into isnt that NK doesnt allow lit/art to leave the country; in fact they really want that to happen! Art is one of North Korea’s biggest exports, they are the biggest supplier of statues in the world and have some stunning works on display in Africa.

Its that everytime a collector like this tries to showcase work, make profit off of reselling NK artists art and such, it gets censored or closed down by western govermnets due to ‘human rights concerns’

Wasnt made in NK but the author collected this work from visiting it and is in regular contact with the artists + has tried to showcase there work outside of NK.

It was so bad that it ended up making all other weapon classes redundant, the combat balance in general was very poor with the sword or short sword being the only viable options.

Played thru it on launch, strong 9/10.

Only downer was I wish the combat system was just a bit better, it was too easy to cheese.

I also wish I waited till the hardcore mode was out, it would have been nice to play it with less UI, no map position, no fast travel.

And why should I believe anything you say?

Is it that inconceivable someone onlines been to HK or Shenzhen to you lmao, they are both cities of several million people and HK being a colony of the UK has free travel between UK>HK.

I met someone in the UK who was HK-British, her parents where a split of HK/Mainlander, allowed me to travel between the two and I had employment for about 6 months in HK as a chef; during that time I was able to speak to a lot of people.

You could just like, fucking talk to someone from Shenzhen man, no ones stopping you.

Nope, its what he said and hes backtracking on it.

The backtracking not being ‘sorry for saying that, we will not do this anymore’

just ‘sorry I said that, I should have said it in a nicer way but we’re still going to cut disabled peoples benefits’

For sure, but its used to stain people who adhered to his political leanings as fascists.

From experience, fascists pretending to be socially left-liberals use the term to try to ostracize actual leftists.
