If there's a draft, I'm burning the fucking card and fleeing to China. I don't give a shit if I have to swim there.

I don't think you can fully or mostly blame world communist movements for being reliant on the USSR. The USSR and other communist movements always face an uphill battle against centuries of propaganda, imperialism, and oppression. It makes sense that the most theoretically and technologically advanced and well-supplied and financially well-off country to foot the bill in order to spread socialism, though I agree that in certain circumstances the USSR did constrain movements and leaders too tightly.

I'm very aware. Hopefully China will. But still, that kind of A.I. is still years, if not decades away.

Helen Wheels from Ben 10, followed by Arcee from Transformers.

Edit: I could write an entire book about my crush on Helen Wheels. And I specifically mean the Transformers: Prime version of Arcee.

"But that's whata-burger-izuhm you evile Ten-Key! Don't you know that Xinnie the Flu forces Wiggluer- Yoghurtz onto his trains to give them free healthcare!? At least in the U.S. you have the right to complain while traveling through our smog-filled cities!"

Not true.

Author-onion-tar-elon-izuhm is a buzz phrase. All politics is authoritarian.

Calling China a authoritarian one-party state is a non-insult. Its like calling a scientist intelligent and rational.

China allows multiple parties and factions. The difference is that only socialism is allowed as the baseline.

That has improved and continues to improve over the last several decades, and the wealth disparity is a whole order of magnitude less than the U.S.

Billionaires in China are rich in name only. The only things they can get with money are a slightly fancier car and house, they aren't able to buy elections.

Confidently incorrect.
