Well, we can agree that these AI companions are like drugs. But mentally and physically healthy people statistically tend to resist consuming them. So if these virtual soul mates are so popular, then it clearly shows existence of problems in society.
So, government basically tries to cure the symptoms of a problem rather than curing the causes.
Declining social and economic conditions affect birthrates more than this.
That instance is fine, as for me.
Some mods here will ban you even for your actions in another not connected communities just because they don’t like you. And, because of likes and dislikes are visible to everyone(which is unfortunate), they abuse this feature also. What means that you can’t even freely like/dislike posts and comments.
If the stain is a mineral deposit(like limestone), than citric acid in orange juice can help remove it.
People also don’t want to exchange their lifes for a pittance, while the corrupted government and oligarchs quietly steal the money from country and ordinary people.
Something tells me that cat isn’t enjoying it as much as its owners.
No offense, but cat looks more like a cute alien to me. Which is also sweet.
What thinking? Providing a short summary is not thinking. There are none of my personal opinions present(except for the first sentence describing what is coming next). I simply provided a text version of a video without creating it myself to specifically exclude possibility of accidentally adding my personal opinions to the summary instead of providing an accurate video representaion.
I only provided a short summary. I don’t know the answer. You are welcome to watch a full video on YouTube and ask its author the same question.
Little clarification: I am a little too lazy to discuss this theme, so I just dropped an automated summary for other to deal with it. Because of more people would prefer reading a few hundred words instead of watching nearly a hour long video. So have fun without me :)
For lazy people here is a short summary of this video from YouTube’s summarize option:
This video by Politically Depressed provides a critical analysis of the term “tankie” and the political phenomenon of “campism,” viewed through the lens of a leftist activist from the Global South. The author shares their own personal journey, detailing how their perspective evolved from being inspired by Noam Chomsky’s theories to becoming disillusioned with them during the revolutionary events in Lebanon (2019).
Key topics covered in the video:
What is a “tankie”? (09:27 - 19:21): Historically, the term originated after the 1956 Hungarian Revolution was crushed by Soviet tanks. Today, the author defines “tankies” as those who blindly support any regime that opposes the United States, often ignoring the genuine suffering of local populations living under those regimes.
Campism as a better term (19:21 - 31:45): The author argues that “campism”—the idea of splitting the world into two warring camps (imperialist vs. anti-imperialist)—is a more accurate term for this worldview. They criticize the “enemy of my enemy is my friend” logic, noting that it frequently leads to the justification of authoritarian dictatorships.
Is campism harmful? (31:45 - 45:37): The author explains how campism hinders true international solidarity. They critique how Western leftists often ignore the voices of people in the Middle East (specifically Syria, Iran, and Lebanon), attempting to force complex local struggles into a simplistic geopolitical framework.
Towards an “internationalism from below” (45:37 - 57:03): The author calls for moving away from personality cults—specifically referencing the need to “kill your daddies” (the act of breaking away from blind adherence to intellectual authorities like Chomsky)—and instead focusing on building horizontal solidarity among movements and communities worldwide.
Key Takeaway: The author concludes that a genuine fight against imperialism and capitalism requires “internationalism from below”—prioritizing mutual support among people rather than blind loyalty to geopolitical blocs or states.
There is nothing wrong about adding default filters to the software(whenever they are acceptable by others or not). The problem is that this should be done via a separate data file from which code extracts strings and not be hardcoded, as it is against the programming etiquette. Also, this file with filter data shouldn’t be hidden or obscured, so that others can modify it as they want.
