are usually not regarded as authoritarian

Despite two of the primary liberal countries, the US and UK, genociding entire continents.

Knitting, reading, gardening, at least one walk every day.

Capitalists aren’t going to let you abolish their rule without an organized violence that they will tell others is “authoritarian”.

Vote with your dollar.

Doesn’t work, a tiny number of capitalists have more of them, and created a system / rigged game (bourgeois “democracy”) that perfectly serves their interests.

You can’t fight against capitalism with violence,

Historically the only way you can fight against capitalism is with violence. There has never been a case in its entire ~400 year history where its relinquished power to socialist alternatives without violence.

Yep, they were one of the pillars of operation gladio. The vatican bank was one of the principle money launderers for the CIA’s drug-running and terrorism operations. One of their assets, Marsinkus, even killed a pope in the 70s over threatening to expose it.

We got most of the tech from the jetsons ppl could envision in the early 1960s (video calls, smartphones, smart watches, smart homes), but still don’t have flying cars, cloud cities, robot maids, and moving sidewalks going everywhere.

Highly recommend reading Domenico Losurdo - Class struggle for more on this.

It gets into how there’s not just a single class struggle, i.e. working class versus bourgeoisie, but many different and related class struggles. Both Marx and Engels held this multivariate view of class struggle too, and it was only later that chauvinists, anti-feminists, and imperialists restricted its meaning to the workplace only.

and because we know China is really more of a capitalist society

Wrong.

Is China State Capitalist?

• The backbone of the economy is state ownership and socialist planning. 24 / 25 of the top revenue companies are state-owned and planned. 70% of the top 500 companies are State-owned. 1, 2 The largest bank, construction, electricity, and energy companies in the world, are CPC controlled entities, subject to the 5 year plans laid out by the central committee.
• Workplace democracy in action in the CPC.
• Is modern day china communist? Is it staying true to communist values?
• Didn’t China go Capitalist with Deng Xiaoping? Didn’t it liberalize its economy? Is China’s drastic decrease in poverty a result of the increase in free market capitalist policies?
• Is the CPC committed to communism?
• The Long Game and Its Contradictions. Audiobook
• The myth of Chinese state capitalism. Did Deng really betray Chinese socialism?
• Tsinghua University- Is Socialism with Chinese Characteristics real socialism, or is it state Capitalism?
• Isn’t China revisionist for having a capitalist sector of the economy, and working with capitalists? Why isn’t it fully planned like the USSR was?
• Castro on why both China and Vietnam are socialist countries.
• Roderic Day - China has billionaires.
• What is socialism with Chinese characteristics (SWCC)?

Same. Cardboard box or round scratching pads are still getting used every day for months. Every other toy, a day or so max.

Operation condor, operation gladio? Never heard of em.

Liberals staunchly support unlimited freedom for the capitalist class, including their rule over everything. Its liberalism’s defining feature.

Browsers are bigger than operating systems now. One of the points of gemini is to use a very restricted language and abilities, so that developers can create their own gemini browsers easily.

As it stands now, google exerts enormous control on the web because of how complicated it is to make a browser. Currently mozilla is google’s only competitor in browser engines.

While gemini is a great project, I personally think a better route would be to create a local or server service that converts and saves existing webpages to markdown, and local apps acting as markdown browsers utilizing it.

With that people could write simple browsers, as well as reduce spying and have static content viewable on all form factors.

Everything that’s not static content (like the fediverse) already can have dedicated apps.
