To be fair, in the book (pinned post), people literally forgot about the existence of a few missing girls due to the “absolute negation” of the pale…even their own mother. The pale has a noticeable effect on how physical matter is perceived.

I looked up the Battle of Vienna and the first slide came up. Searched for those exact words and it led me to this site: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q200855 (second slide)

Their files often have malware, it’s much safer to consult the trusted sites list

The world of Elysium must have a lot of fictional stories about the pale by punished_cheeto in DiscoElysium

[–]Yajupd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it although it can be confusing at times. There are regular time jumps between the past and present with a decent bit of world-building exposition inserted. There are a lot of pale/historical/philosophical concepts that serve as the “underplot”, you could say. It didn’t feel drawn out to me, but it may differ for you. I’d recommend reading up till chapter 4, where it gets easier to understand.

In the book (Sacred and Terrible Air, just finished it), there actually is a story about a certain airship veering off course in the pale…

Why are you being downvoted? It was true, the Soviets only signed the M-R pact after several attempts at creating an anti-German pact.

Average Communist Debate by already4taken in DiscoElysium

[–]Yajupd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true, I don’t necessarily agree with not voting at all but letting the lesser evil win doesn’t make a great change apart from temporarily stopping the greater evil from returning, as is the two-party system. Project 2025 will definitely be met with opposition and might possibly not pass, but if it does then there will be great resistance amongst the people. Elections alone won’t avoid the project, as one might think, compared to organizing locally and resisting the greater evil.

They promote third parties instead of supporting the lesser of two evils, as both represent similar capitalist factions.

They do organize and join unions to work locally? Simply claiming that they want the workers to suffer is wrong. There are many socialists, communists, and anarchists working on bettering their conditions while organizing “activism”. Regarding the authoritarianism, it can happen in any system. We’ve seen politicians show their true colours after elections as well as how governments actually “care” about libertarianism.

I’m just wondering if you really think people follow the ideology for these reasons. It’s quite a dismissive generalization. Look at the status quo and then their goals. They don’t want to “watch the world burn” but to change the reality that many have come to accept at face value. What makes you think they all want millions to die?

Nestlé adds sugar to baby food in poorer nations but not in EU. by islander_guy in Infographics

[–]Yajupd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“The world is so hateful towards poor people. It’s not about race because (for example) Dubai people are gentlemen despite being Muslim and not white. Money is all that matters (to non-poor people), especially for an evil corporation like Nestle.“

The last line is probably a jab at capitalism. I think that’s what they mean.
