Pener Kropoopkin posted:The simplest way I can think to frame the issue is this: if you accept the principle that "private property is a theft of the commons," then in a socialist society wouldn't anyone agitating for a return to capitalism be engaged in a criminal conspiracy? Making something a crime is not the same as discussing whether or not it should be a crime; that would be its own crime.

gently caress I just spent hundreds of military points raising my absolutism in the age of revolutions. In my defense, the tooltip said that I was gaining +0.50 independence every month, and that +0.50 was caused by absolutism being less than 50. So naturally I thought raising it to 50 would help

Typo posted:I never understood absolutism I think its the equivalent of squeezing as much as possible out of your people/vassals/colonies, and then in the Age of Revolutions you get punished for it.

ted hitler hunter posted:Earlier ITT someone put forth a theory about using it to de-dollarize but maybe that's reading too much into it and putting too much stock into bitcoin and alt-coins. the chinese are mining the most bitcoin so they can destroy it later. what use to the ccp is bitcoin once everyone has a digital RMB account?

Rutibex posted:all money is just a mass confidence delusion. dollars and bitcoins don't exist except except in the minds of people, and there is a finite amount of delusion energy. if people lose faith in dollars and buy bitcoin it decreases the power of the dollar mass delusion.

Rutibex posted:i'm watching this documentary and i am super jealous of these rural chinese people who have their own houses and more living space than i've ever dreamed of. this guy is supposedly poor and all i can think is "drat i wish i could live in a cave i dug myself" The value of what people produce for their own consumption is never part of the "...makes X dollars a year" figure. It is always assumed that everyone is an alienated worker whose only source of support is a paycheck.

shrike82 posted:let's see if chinese millenials are able to push any meaningful redistributive reforms? the genie's out of the bottle and you can't undo giving people the right to "capital" and all the consequences (e.g., interest on capital exceeding interest on wage labor) easily so color me skeptical millenials? the current government is already committed to meaningful redistributive reform. there is no other way for the ccp to reach its goal of doubling the economy by 2035. either they're serious about doing that or they aren't. if they are, there will be massive redistribution.
