Yup that's why he gets to go to Narnia: he's the nerdiest nerd who ever nerded and therefore is most qualified to meet with the queen, elves, etc. It's total wish fulfillment and self-insert slop.

Yeah the guy who....

...was bankrolled by the US and overthrown by Vietnam was a Marxist?
Handmaid's Tale is a prime example of the cracker brain. "Oh no! A fascist, theocratic dictatorship is going to force women to give birth and then steal the children!" and I'm like "Motherfucker that's already been done in the US to black and Native American women, complete with the religious aspect."
They're afraid of what Whitey has done to other people all over the world for centuries being done to other white people. Liberals are willfully ignorant about their country's history. Conservatives have a larger persecution fetish than liberals and want to LARP as the American Revolution so they can kill people they don't like.
Not to mention, places in the Imperial Core are all relatively safe. Americans are so easily startled by their own shadows. They act like they live in a place where people just disappear because they got nabbed by criminal organizations. Or where you can't walk outside at night because there's so many robberies and homicides. Very few places in the US are genuinely dangerous and they sure as shit aren't some suburb in Idaho. You should be more worried about alligators in Florida than violent crime.
Supply is the quantity and quality of a commodity. Demand is the want or need of a commodity. Demand is easy to increase or decrease, it's just how many people are asking for the thing. Supply can be increased through increasing quantity or quality, both of which require labor to be performed on raw materials or commodities to turn them into commodities in demand.
This is where Marx comes in. There is a discrepancy in capitalism between supply and demand, because prices should change based on where they intersect. This doesn't happen, which caused Marx and Engles to ask "why?" The conclusion is the labor done to increase supply isn't being compensated correctly. This missing piece for when demand goes up while supply goes down but the price doesn't change is profit. That's where profits are coming from.
What capitalist and their economists don't like is disregarded. They say Marxist analysis is wrong because of the claim profit is the stolen intersection between supply and demand. This doesn't solve the contradiction, however, so they come up with "models" and woo-woo mysticism to try and explain the discrepancy. These models and predictions aren't accurate because if they were, they could predict what happens in the stock market, making a lot of money.
Marx correctly identified the underlying problem why supply & demand don't line up like they should, but this means capitalists are stealing from their workers. Capitalists don't want to admit this, so you'll see them making all kinds of wild claims to explain away the contradictions.

lmao that's like when my 4th. grade teacher gave me The Giver to read and I was like "Wow this sounds based if we just don't do the eugenics part. Organizing the economy? Community events? Sign me up!"
I miss my cat she was solid black fur and would complain if you tried to sleep in on weekends because she wanted breakfast at 6 AM.
I bet if you made an art project out of styrofoam that looks like real cheese and left it out next to some cuckold porn DVDs, he'd show himself immediately. If it sits out for more than a day, you know he's gone for good. If he's not gone, it will be really, really funny when he tries to eat a styrofoam block of cheese.
hey lets see what would happen if a modern military fought against a fantasy military that has dragons and orcs
NOT WITHOUT AN UNDERAGE SCHOOLGIRL HAREM YOU WON'T
Anime was a mistake. The Magicians did it much better, but was constrained by a live-action budget.
Do you really think somebody would do that? Just steal your apes while pretending to be from another country so they could easily get away? Surely there's securities in place for crypto to prevent such a thing!
We need to shut down private schools until we can figure out what the fuck is going on.
You're better off watching some of the action scenes on YouTube and ignoring the rest. Not only is it problematic, it's also the most mid isekai shit you'll ever see. Everything wrong with the genre, you'll find it in Gate being done excessively.
I kept hoping it would get better, but it only got worse and worse as it dragged on.
