I think it would be better for simpler UIs. I’ve heard GNOME with touchpad is a solid experience

I’ve never understood the stereotype that Americans idolize a bunch of old white guys from the 1700s.

Have you ever talked to a Texan, or anyone over 50?

Gotta be honest man, I really don’t see it. This comparison is forced af

Why does Taiwan, Hong Kong, Tibet, and East Turkestan deserve independence? And what about Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Guam, etc.?

do you have any guides on how to use soulseek? is it safe to use on public wi-fi? (And will I get a letter from my ISP lol)

Whether it’s traditional capitalists or self-interested bureaucrats owning the state, the end result is the same. Doesn’t China have a Gini coefficient almost as high as the US’s? Why would any truly socialist state be allowing this level of inequality? I’m not so sure the top CPC members are really all that interested in working towards communism over preserving their careers and benefits. Even if they were, if everyone below them was corrupt or non-dedicated how would the CPC be able to properly work towards its goal while its members cant work together?

Because the entire party is centered around Marxist Leninist Mao Zedong thought, every generation will be more dedicated to communism.

This is a huge trust-me-bro.

Yeah but my point is the top CPC members are basically the new bourgeoisie

This is cool and all but just because the CPC is harder on the bourgeoisie than other countries’ governments doesn’t mean that China doesn’t have vast amounts of private ownership, worker exploitation, etc., or that the proletariat are really in power and not just CPC bureaucrats. I still don’t see how they’re not just a different kind of social democracy
