There’s literally whole libraries of thought on this topic written at much higher level than you’ll find in an Internet comment.

If you were interested in the actual arguments you’d be reading books and papers, not Lemmy shitposts.

Speaking of which, big “the divine right of kings is indisputable” energy btw

I mean you’re complaining that a multi episode arc of a TV show explored an idea better than a four panel comic… And even then it’s not really the same because Troy wasn’t a math prodigy

I think the only thing more cringe than god is this exchange

They caved… Bigly.

Is it possible to learn this power?

When the system doesn’t require unpaid labor to get a paying job or further education.

(As a note guess what a lot of nursing programs require that are conspicuously absent from medical school requirements)

In a system that doesn’t require experience at these “unpaid internships” to get a paying job, sure.

What if leprechauns farted rainbows that turned into LSD?

We know what Yahweh’s definition of sinners that deserve death and eternal torment is, and it’s as cringe as everything else in the Old Testament.

We also know that, according to accepted Christian prophecy, he plans to do it again.

In short, fuck that guy.

Centrists do love telling Charlie Kirk on his podcast he’s got the right idea about the LGBT+ community (Charlie Kirk famously wanting to kill them all in his last quote “argghblaggerlllrgh”)

Everything is contextual and interconnected, but it was Lysenkoism, only possible under authorianism, that broke the core structural principle of a central command economy.

Lysenkoism isn’t a reference to the actions of Lysenko, it refers to the entire system of failures that created it.

Lysenko’s politically derived pseudoscience that started with ideology instead of evidence combined with Stalinist/Maoist paranoia and conflation of scientific dissent with rebellion and threats to the state created the famines from what would have been shortages during the restructuring.

That is all (and more) described by the term.

Wanting fascists dead/not caring that they die is the same as killing almost every human on earth indeed

Or calling the murder of “sinners” justice lmao

If you don’t want to understand why a system that forced workers and scientists to lie about production numbers or get shot caused famines during industrial centralization and was the absolute worst thing to have happening concurrently with a direct causal link in two separate countries I can’t make you.

Yes, eventually the industrialization of Soviet farming paid off despite his nonsense.

Doesn’t stop it from being the major cause (beyond deliberate genocidal policies) of the interwar famines. As you can provably see when it spread to Mao’s newly formed Chinese state and, surprise, caused famines again when they didn’t have the sheer output of an industrialized agrarianian sector to make up for it.

The Four Pests Campaign obviously didn’t help in that regard but Lysenkoism was part and parcel of it, with Mao officially adopting it as state policy and Lysenkoism trained advisors setting specific policy goals.

Funny, because it and the pre-industrial cyclical famines ended when his policies did.

Because capitalist authoritarians never try to use starvation as weapon.

Lysenkoism was the cause of both Soviet and Chinese non-war related famines, a grand tragedy only possible under an authoritarian fever dream.

Ignore the lessons of history if you want, it just makes you the villain of the next cycle.

Your Christofash is showing.

A “ceremonial” one that still takes taxes, influences policy, can and does appoint and remove officials, has veto powers, and is above the law unless the chief inbred agrees otherwise.

But they’re not rude about it so the more gullible peasants pretend they’re just some vestigial organ that somehow also can’t be removed.
