As a soc dem, capitalism is only slightly better but the system needs heavy regulations. But with the burgeoning AI and automation, I am starting to lean more towards socialism. I mean, after AI “companies” stole our data to train their AI with, isn’t it only right that WE should actually take rightful ownership of that? At some point, AI and automation will become advanced enough that most jobs will be gone and humans would not be needed anymore. When that time comes, the ordinary folks should take their rightful stake in that automation revolution by taxing robots or take communal ownership of AI to fund universal basic income and services. That is the best socialism we can get. Not only we can finally rid of social ails that plague humanity due to unbridled capitalism, but also we are taking away full power from oligarchs who stole our own data to begin with. They would not be there if it weren’t for us to begin with.

Containerised liability assigned to nonexistent entities.

That is how corporations avoid antitrust lawsuits. They know what they’re doing.

But not for laymen.

They died with principle and honour. And how did USSR die and remembered for if you think they are so great and infallible?

But USSR is dead. How is that accomplishment?

His successor will be more incompetent.

And yet the entire USSR failed and died massively anyway?

True. Because with the rate of Russian advance, it will take them decades to even fully occupy the oblasts they want to occupy. By then, Putin will be dead and that is only when Russia fully ceases attacking.

Wish all you want that Trump preferably dies soon but it doesn’t matter. He is merely the punching bag and front for the real rulers: the oligarchs. They will only prop up someone else as the fall guy, while they steal every fibre, life and soul of everything they touches.

I can’t wait for corporate fascism! Enclave when?! /s

But seriously, America wants to speedrun to corporate fascism (Thiel and Musk are accelerationists after all). But even without this speed running, corpo-fascism is only the logical conclusion of America’s deranged obsession and worshipping of capitalism.

The war stops when Russia, imperialist aggressor, stops.

I can see now why English is seen as more universal, even if in an alternate timeline where the Anglophones never became dominant.

Don’t worry about the Polish right. They are anti-Kremlin since day one. The people in countries that border Russia including Finland, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia are very anti-Russia. So, it makes any political parties from both left and right in those countries also anti-Russia. Being pro-Russia in them is a political suicide (Romania is a different case but that is another topic).

The only right wing you should worry about is the Western right being useful idiots for Russia.

I distinctly remember the days just before the Russian invasion in a subreddit that is full of Russian bots. They were dismissing the potential Russian invasion as Western hysteria. And for once, I was inclined to agree because after the lies to invade Iraq, I was skeptical of CIA assessment. Moreover, it is utterly stupid to invade a group of people who historically hate their previous imperial masters. That’s like Britain invading India and Ireland again and expecting the British to be welcomed in open arms.

But then the unthinkable actually happened-- Russia did invade. However, Ukrainians valiantly held themselves and embarrassed the Russians, and doing so to this day.

The Russian bots in the subreddit I mentioned have immediately gone quiet after the invasion and haven’t posted for a couple of days. The anti-Kremlin posts during that time were not getting any push back. Like the actual Russian soldiers who were not informed that the invasion will actually happen, the bots and their handlers themselves were also surprised, and they were waiting for marching orders on what talking points to propagandise. The bots returned with precisely the talking points you just summarised. But at the same time with predictable pattern since then, Russian bots go quiet whenever Russia suffer embarrassing setbacks such as the Russian withdrawal from Kyiv, the 2022 Kharkov and Kherson liberation, Ukraine’s invasion into Kursk, and now the destruction of Russia’s fleet of bomber planes.

I am not a Pole so I don’t know why you seem panicking and writing a wall of text to explain yourself lol. My guess is that you live in Poland at the moment and I heard that there is ongoing tension with locals after taking in so many Ukrainians. Don’t worry, the Poles won’t abandon Ukraine. Because the good news is that the previous conservative Polish party that ruled Poland for 13 years have always helped Ukraine since the Russian takeover of Crimea. All major parties in Poland are supportive of Ukraine, because most Poles are anti-Russia (not against the Russian people but against Kremlin). Both Ukraine and Poland have a mutual dislike of Kremlin and Putin so your country and Poland will always help together.

I never said I trust Trump or USA. No one said anything about them to begin with.

If you know the politics of Poland, the Polish right-wing are different because they are anti-Russia. Nawrocki being elected will not negatively affect NATO. Judging from your profile, you are Ukrainian so you can relax about the new Polish president. Nawrocki was put on Russia’s wanted list after destroying a Soviet era statue. So he can’t be pro-Russia.

Cuba is still authoritarian. Their biotech research is pretty amazing though, in spite of sanctions and Castro’s obsession with producing a supercow.

He was a work friend.

I am talking about conservatives in Poland. Polish conservatives are vehemently anti-Russia so they won’t sabotage NATO unlike Trump or Orban.

Commies are cool, as it turns out.

Kinda depends on what kind of commie. Authoritarians like CCP, Bolsheviks and the Kim family? Never. But the Kronstadt sailors who died fighting the hypocrisies of the Bolsheviks, and the Japanese Communist Party who chose the peaceful route to try to gain power? They are cool.

Well, my losses is not even 1% of my yearly salary so I am not too worried about what happened. I am also minimalist and don’t buy frivolous stuff but only what I need. Therefore I definitely took a measured risk imo and never threatened my savings. It has only been recent changes in my life that afforded me more time to learn more.

Like I said to another poster, a friend (who made 200k as an ordinary person) introduced me to stocks didn’t tell me that CFD is risky and different to normal investing. Our lives went separate ways and I don’t think I will ever have the chance to rant to him that he never told me CFD is not investing! Although, I do now have proper investment portfolio and set aside 10% of my monthly wages to them.

Thank you for the advise and definitely I developed trading strategy which I think will minimise the risk than before!
