democracy
You mean capitalist dictatorship. We should not allow the liberals to call their sham system / theatre piece of stacked elections picked by the rich, as “democracy”.

Peer tube uses webtorrents, which for many reasons haven’t caught on. It’s still mainly centralized nodes with massive hosting costs. Torrents are the fully decentralized answer.

Every single youtube channel needs to start seeding torrents of their videos, and posting those links to other platforms (here, mastodon, etc).
Youtube / google could be defeated collectively if creators were to consistently do this, and interested people help seed them.

You have to kinda suspend your disbelief a little bit when watching the show, especially since its based in Los Angeles, in reality one of the most corrupt and racist police forces on the planet.
Luckily in the show there’s barely any presence from his higher ups, you get the feeling that they just let this magic murder-solving troll do his thing and don’t ever interfere.

Capitalists control the political system of the US. Its not a democracy, it’s a capitalist dictatorship.
What health-care systems it used to have, were only to quell decades of worker struggles fighting for equivalent health care systems the USSR was putting in place in the 1920s.

I don’t have the original source, I only found a few others online that repeated her statement.
After the red scares and anti-communist purges in the US the 30s-40s, no writers or anyone in hollywood could come out and say they were communist or socialist. Many of them like Roddenberry were only able to push communitarian values and do societal critiques of racism, nationalism, and selfishness via sci-fi.
Star trek is unique among US media for telling a hopeful story about a communist / post-capitalist future, but these already had a long tradition in the USSR. This article gets into it a bit more:
Star trek and its debt to revolutionary socialism.

Many far right countries (australia, japan, south korea) use ranked choice voting... it doesn't make a bit of difference. If capitalists control the political system, then they will stack candidates and fund the campaigns that support their interests, and the "democracy" there is nothing but political theatre.
Outside of Marxists, even the ancient greeks knew that representative government is just another name for plutocracy, because only wealthy / landed family have the money and prestige to fund campaigns to get themselves elected. Liberals still haven't learned this simple lesson.

American values
The values of the US settler-colonial project, are native eviction, and genocide.
The values of the indigenous peoples were not considered worthy to the european settlers, so they did their best to wipe out hundreds of peoples/tribes/cultures. You either don’t know that history, or worse, you are proud of it.
I highly suggest reading both An indigenous people’s history of the US by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, or her Not a nation of immigrants.

The PRC would be incredibly naive to let US tech companies in, and take and hoover over their social media landscape, like so many other countries have done. For example India’s most popular communications platform, is facebook. The US effectively controls the social media of a country many times larger than itself, and can influence it whatever way it wants.
For those who want to view US-run tech sites in the PRC, they can of course via VPNs which are completely legal, but that friction is very worthwhile for encouraging home-run alternatives, and preventing mass surveillance by an evil empire.

libertarian socialist/communist
When your socialist communist group arms and starts defending themselves and their class interests, what prevents someone labeling them as authoritarian for doing so?
Socialist countries like the PRC lived through a hundred years of imperial exploitation by foreign powers (Britain, the US, and Japan), and fought a decades-long civil war against feudal reactionaries to finally liberate themselves from these oppressions. Do you know something they don’t, about how to establish socialism, “non-authoritarianly”?

The strangest person I’ve ever met was homeschooled, it was a really sad case. He was an only child home-schooled by fundamentalist christian parents, and didn’t have much interaction with peers his age until he was in college. Zebulon (yes that was his name) could not hold a simple conversation, and clearly had less education than most grade-schoolers. Talking to him was worse than talking to a child, he would babble or ignore everything you said and change the subject completely. I hope he’s overcome that and is doing better now.

It should be illegal or heavily restricted, as it is in many countries already.
The kid doesn’t get what’s easily the most important aspect of school (even more important than the curriculum), socialization.
The kid gets an education from someone who likely has no qualifications whatsoever, and is more than likely homeschooling for fundamentalist religious reasons.
