"Now U.S. imperialism is quite powerful, but in reality it isn't. It is very weak politically because it is divorced from the masses of the people and is disliked by everybody and by the American people too. In appearance it is very powerful but in reality it is nothing to be afraid of, it is a paper tiger. Outwardly a tiger, it is made of paper, unable to withstand the wind and the rain. I believe the United States is nothing but a paper tiger.

Priorities

theres a lot of nuance in automation bc it is unilaterally good for whoever owns the means of production to be able to do more with less labor. being a one-person indie hobbyist game developer who can generate backgrounds instead of cobbling together and retracing stock photos is great and saves you a lot of work and gives you room to do the things you want to be doing--coding, writing, sprites, etc. not every part of an artistic process by an individual is going to be well thought out and considered if they hope to ever actually finish, and a hobbyist cannot afford to hire other artists. the net effect of automation here is that the hobbyist's game exists and is published instead of languishing forever as the dev tries to learn every skill involved in making a game

the production of art like games is only one example though. this process applies just as well to automation in goods as well. like an artisanal seamstress is not making everything by hand, they are buying thread, buying sewing machines, and if they can use a more advanced sizing algorithm to up-size and down-size a pattern than what is industry standard, thats a good thing for them*, if they can use automated tools to cut patterns thats good for them. being a worker in a factory doesnt make those automated tools a shit deal innately--its good when we can do things with less work--what makes it a shit deal is that the boss is the one who captures the value of the labor saved

Can't get through the commute to work in London without being reminded of the connection between football, fascism, and military propaganda that tries to recruit the fans. It only gets more ghoulish.
