Chinas official policy is not to export revolution and not to interfere in countries internal matters. I feel like their goal is simply to outlast everyone else.

This is of course frustating but it is the path they chose. It's not just a matter of foreign policy but the direction of the country as a whole. The Soviet economy was decoupled from the west and existed as a parallel system for countries to break free from western hegemony, which is why they could support national liberation movements everywhere. It's also why after the USSR fell countries across the world dropped Marxism-Leninism for social democracy or worse. China on the other hand is wholly integrated into the global economy and does not have that same capacity.

Revolutionary Iran is explicitly against American-Israeli influence in the Middle East and they have been punished for it with crippling sanctions.

These are TSMC chips. SMIC is at 5nm

I don't think thats true.

In house chip design is not the same as coming from chinese foundries. As far as I can tell these are still coming from TSMC. SMIC seems to be coming out with 5nm chips this year

Thank you for your comment. I agree Ansarallah is a beacon in Islam today.

You are entirely correct. However, the start of the Ummayad dynasty was the first Fitna, which is why Shia sources emphasize their brutality more, while Sunni may be ambivalent. Followers of the Ahl al Bayt is a clear reference to Shia Islam though

followers of ... the family of Muhammad, rather than the Islam of the Ummayad butchers

I interpreted this as a reference to their Shiism. I dont mean to misinterpret your words

Comrade, why don't we emphasize their solidarity rather than their sect, just like they emphasize Islamic unity?

Glory to the resistance!

What is the current situation in Lebanon? Where does Hezbollah stand militarily?

In the imperial core, social democracy is a way to bribe and placate citizens, to create a labor aristocracy that benefits from colonial extraction and will thus support it. This is made possible exactly by that extraction, the surplus from the periphery makes up for the lost surplus from the core. It is just a way to redraw the line between the oppressed and the beneficiaries of that oppression.

Historically, like in Greece or Rome, that uplifted citizenry also constituted a much more effective military force to power the imperial expansion that keeps the system going, but I'm not sure if that still applies.

I didn't get much out of school personally

Sure it sucks from the perspective of the teacher but if students don't care about the course they're not gonna start caring by holding them by the hand and making them do the work. You can lead someone to water but you cant make them drink etc

(ofc everyone is different, maybe for some people it works but I absolutely hated courses like that)

what's wrong with cheating
