Isn’t the US leading the world in AI? How else will the world access chatbots that make confidently make shit up?

Many if not most men are like this. It’s usually their wives or another woman in their lives that drags them in when something is about to fall off. It’s another way in which husbands leave 71% of a household’s ‘mental load’ on their wives, down to their own well being.

I understand now that you are using the communist definition, which is not the definition that’s widely agreed upon but is popular here. Another user clarified that. Thanks and glad we could clear things up.

Ah that explains the response. I was using the modern American definition. Genuinely appreciate the clarification

Defining a phrase is not gatekeeping.

I think you’d be hard pressed convincing anyone that a physician or lawyer acting as an independent contractor and selling their professional services for $200+/hr is working class.

Its a general definition of the phrase. There will always be exceptions. There is still no evidence that anyone considers doctors, engineers, lawyers etc to be part of the working class.

They are generally considered to be part of the professional class. More have become beholden to corporate structures as America descends further into late stage capitalism, but they are still not generally considered part of the working class.

Most Amazon / Walmart workers, Uber drivers, fast food workers etc. would likely scoff at the idea of considering those professions to be working class as they are.

The working class includes those who earn their living through wage-paying (hourly) jobs, typically involving manual labor or service work without poatsecondary education requirements. They tend to have modest property ownership, and make close to minimum wage with limited benefits. Working-class jobs are predominantly in the service sector, including retail sales, clerical work, food industry positions, and manual labor.

Which definition of working class are you using that includes doctors, lawyers and engineers?

The reason for Modi’s approval is very similar to Trumps. He’s very good at blaming the other (in this case Muslims and several other groups).

He’s also in power at a time when India was inevitably going to grow stronger economically and people can feel that. GDP is growing at 7-8% annually which is massive for a country of India’s size, even if GDP per capita leaves a lot to be desired.

Though India is developing at a steady pace now and is on a trajectory to be a developed nation in two decades, I don’t think I’d rush to give Modi credit for that. It’s a relatively untapped market that constitutes a fifth of humanity. It was bound to grow barring war, natural disaster, crippling geopolitical / trade tensions etc. He’s just at the right place at the right time and had the right type of divisive rhetoric that seems to be hot all over the world right now.

The common knowledge among those interested in the history is that Britain insitutionalized and entrenched caste in an administrative framework that never before existed in India.

They generally saw their colonial subjects as tools for financial gain and wished they could stay out of the messy sociologic aspects of how different people may relate to each other. On a more fundamental level, they didn’t see them as people.

They also implicated skin color in caste in a way that it was not previously. Their perception of the world at the time was very much “white = good” and “anything other than white = bad” and they couldn’t help but apply that framework to all human relations.

You’re right. They also didn’t create colorism, which has existed in every human society since the dawn of time.

What they did do is institutionalize and entrench caste. They applied their racialized view of the world and interpreted caste as “low caste = dark skin = bad” and “high caste = fair skin = good” There is nothing in ancient Indian literature that connects caste to skin tone.

There is however significant literature tying caste to virtue. Low caste individuals in India are disenfranchised similar to African Americans in the US.

The British didn’t help the issue by identifying certain castes as innately criminal, subjecting them to constant police surveillance and even imprisoning them premptively.

The Indian government, at its inception, outlawed caste discrimination and there are several affirmative action plans in place to provide increased oppurunities to disenfranchised castes but, similar to the African American community in the US, execution of such plans and positive outcomes are still lacking.

During his visit to Kerala, India in 1959, Martin Luther King Jr. was being introduced by a school principal: “Young people, I would like to present to you a fellow untouchable from the United States of America” Initially shocked, he reflected and then responded: “Yes, I am an untouchable, and every Negro in the United States is an untouchable”

According to a Leger poll, 64% of Canadians would vote for Kamala Harris, while 21% would support Donald Trump, with 15% undecided. Conservative voters in Canada were nearly evenly split, with 42% supporting Harris and 45% backing Trump.

Trump would lose the election if Canada were a state, barring any electoral college shenanigans.
