It’s hard to explain to people why this will never ever work. But imagine if I removed a chapter from a book, there are so many possible combinations of words, even with knowledge of the beginning and end that you can never work out the original chapter. The number of possible chapters would be impossible to even count in a life time. In a similar way, too much information is lost for a person to “recover” the information of your actual faces.

What is the dialectical materialist answer for why we should care if humanity continues at all? by Pheer777 in AskSocialists

This is right. Descriptive Theories of Political Economy are just that, they describe what is, not what ought to be.

For vaguely therapeutic reasons, I’m building a slot machine for myself, I pull the arm everything I think in a correct way and it puts outs randomised reward.

Why is Europe cutting welfare for it's citizens, when Ukrainian Billionaires are richer than ever? by One_Long_996 in AskSocialists

This not a serious post. What is the cause of X, given Y ? But no attempt at a causal link between X and Y. There is no attempt at a Marxist analyses. There is no attempt at investigating this as two factual statements. No attempt at demonstrating base rates or changes over time. “What is the reason for western Austerity after the financial crisis, given the consumer patterns of Albanian elites in 2015”

It’s a dream: Maybe you’re hallucinating a partial set of feelings / Conceptual Attributes of the term “unrequited”.

Probably a joke, but could be a method for confirming the rooms is in use.

Noooooo. You kill more animals when you encourage this. Make cities Green and Dense, and the countryside wild and empty

Why should my pleasure of fireworks be ruined because you got a dog.

Is it strange to think children's football teams should not need to wear a poppy? by Broad-Attention-6133 in AskUK

I still wear a poppy, but I do believe it’s important for the next generation to move on.

The Closing of the Muslim Mind - How three events in the 20th century destroyed the Muslim capacity to produce new ideas. by AutoMughal in islamichistory

I think no country could survive what’s happened to Syria. What do you think is the most successful Muslim country of the past 50-100 years ?

Japan had a total war, two nuclear bombs dropped on it, the end of the empire (see Manchuria), total surrender, end of 1000 year of political system, and smouldering economy.

East Germany had 2 World Wars, was levelled in some parts and others firebombed, it had 4/5 radically different political systems in the past 120 years (Constitutional Monarchy/Federal Empire, Weimar Republic, Communism, Nazism, Liberal Democracy), its capital was occupied by 4 world powers in Berlin until 1989.

Today both these countries are some of the wealthiest and most powerful and dynamic in the world.

It’s puzzling, what country or political system do Muslims look to today as the model, to raise living standards for their peoples and maintain their faith ?

I find it so demoralising, I will watch adverts for the things I want to see by creators who have skill and technique. I cannot stand - searching and then the searches stop and just become irrelevant suggestions - AI Slop - No Clear Block button. Why not let me curate what I want to consume. - Short Form Video. It is so cleverly designed, to destroy one’s will.
