Thank you again!

Thank you! I assume a similar system is in place for the majority of Europe, but I’m not sure to what extent.

Thank you!

Absolutely. Recovering from destitution nominally isn’t nearly the same as being made whole again.

By social death I actually meant social murder here. Sorry for the confusion.

I can’t seem to find any official term for being made disabled by poverty, so I guess I’ll refer to it as social maiming. Do you have any specific anecdotes?

I’m not sure to what extent destitution is forced upon those living on reserves. I assume some enforcement mechanisms are in place there to restrict the economy. Do you have an idea?

Thank you! I’m aware of some of the depraved institutions of child trafficking and prostitution that erupted all over the dissolved union.

The majority of anti-social behaviour is caused externally through poor socialization and adverse life events. With the advent of modern drug-assisted psychotherapy, criminal reform is becoming much easier after the fact as well (IF THEY BOTHERED TO USE IT).

Punishment should be carried out by having the perpetrator restore damages to the victim. Incarceration should be a last resort for those threatening imminant violence anyways.

The death penalty is essentially a statement that reforming some individuals is impossible, which I don’t believe will remain true for long due to coming advances in neuroscience.

Really great insight. China does pay very close attention to public opinion.

Do you think this is somewhat similar to the gay marriage question? Where I assume they’re just waiting for potential opposition to die down?

bruh at least 95% of immigrants would be from Asia or Africa.

China’s immigration policy absolutely made sense during the one-child policy era, but their population has begun declining recently.

Edit: Actually, cultural inertia is a great explanation.

That’s a great point.

Are Japan and South Korea also in the same boat? They seem even more occupied than Europe despite their global north status.

At what point do you think it was fully realized?

It was too expensive, there was a huge language barrier, and the quality of life wouldn’t have been been better in most cases.

We’re still in the early days of organization in the imperial core. People simply have no idea what to look for in a leader.

So far Mamdani is a just a city mayor, but also the de-facto leader of the American socialist movement in the eyes of the public. He will eventually need to superceeded as unprecedented changes to material reality continue to occur.
