  31.  @Libertad59  A trope is very similar to the concept of Dawkins's "meme" theory. Except that the word predates the Materialists' need to explain their worldview. So, a trope would be something that authors might discuss when writing or critiquing a film, article or play. Tropes are considered useful for telling stories as long as the audience doesn't interpret it as a stereotype. A stereotype is a trope that overtly communicates that "communities" alluded to are all very similar with little variation. Similar to how the sound received in your left versus right ears is almost identical yet there are tiny, irrelevant differences only to let you know about position, not differences between one "hippy" and another. So, having a typical "hippy" in your story might or might not be stereotyping but it would definitely be a "hippy" trope. You're not really trying to discuss the details of your character as a specific, individual thing. Agitprop tropes appeal to all sort of fallacious presumptions. Marxists are dogmatic atheists and think they are Masters of Science because all of their beliefs are based on this presumed mastery as evidenced by their "knowledge" pertaining to zero gods. Science Denier is a very common and idiotic agitation propaganda trope. It's not a question, challenge or debate. It's an IFF (Identify Friend or Foe) label. Notice there's no room to argue with them. You have to come completely to their side just to prove you have a 3 digit IQ, according to their dogmatic worldview. Your disagreement with them in their feeble minds signals to "Science" that they won the debate and that you are incorrigible or a lying Capitalist. Possibly both. By the way, it originally meant something communicated that is figurative rather than precise and realistic.

  42.  @Dr.Gainzzz  That's true only because the US middle class is unlike any other for the simple reason that the US Constitution protects everyone's property and due process rights. The rich/poor dichotomy is true everywhere only to the extent that there are people with power everywhere and underneath them people without any political power at all. The middle class is a third choice between king and peasant. Under the British system there was an actual "landed" class that basically came from inheritance of lands granted originally by the monarchy. So the "Landed Gentry" could be regarded as "Middle Class" because they don't have the king's wealth but their not poor. But generally people assigned "Landed Gentry" to the same class as the monarchy except taht they were not of the royal family itself. But the middle class as a term evolved from people who were not landed gentry but neither were they peasants. This in theory represents the entire US population because nobody has land grants from any monarch. And we don't have any peasants that have no property rights. For the US system the Marxists decided to have a "scientific" way to create these categories as "proof" that the US is not a classless society. They use economic data and arbitrarily decided that the lowest percentage of citizens in terms of income were "poor" and then they constantly make up garbage about who is rich and who is not poor but not rich. Nor to US "Political Scientists" distinguish between rich SJW's like Pelosi (she's just SJW class) and "Fat Cats" like Trump that are "Capitalists" and "not woke". India is much, much more complicated. You have a lot of clans and traditions about who can do what and who can even associate with one another. That's not conducive to the creation of a national "middle class". In the French Jacobin political paradigm they are mostly "Third Estate" (same idea as Third World) and these factions are often fighting each other. The connected rich people consider them Untermensch but unlike the German Nazis they don't consider their underclass to be dangerous. But if the USA had the same total population we would always produce many times more engineers and professionals because most Indians are not of the "class" that can even go to engineering and law schools and so forth. India is also "exceptional" in that sense. IOW, you can't just toss about these "social science" tropes and make informed comments about what it's like there. I hear that the disenfranchised classes are managing to get some to the schools but how would I know to what extent that is true? What I do know is that the last nation we should help to "develop" is any nation that refuses to even consider holding elections because the workers are regarded as chattel. Communists hold more slaves now than the US Democratic Party ever did. Why would we help the regime get richer so they can afford to enslave even more people? How is this different than "Industrialists" that help Germany rebuild after WWI and now have their names smeared because of WWII? I think helping the CCP is far worse than helping the German Nazis. Of course it all changed when the Germans sunk some of our ships, a clear act of war. But people are so stupid emotionally about all of these things. The traitors are the ones that sit around fighting over trivia while the CCP has US corporations building "hi tech" factories over there. Worse are the ones that put programs in to place to ensure that our energy prices go up and China has even lower energy prices as a result. And programs to force Americans to buy Chinese electric cars and so forth. It's so freaking obvious. Why would anyone give any thought to what's happening with India when China stole most of the jobs their fighting over. Deal with the CCP first. And completely. Then stop worrying about India or any other "democracy" that is struggling to develop economically.

  48. The Strategic Oil Reserves problem is superficial relative to the actual agenda. The Communists in the USA and China have been trying to destroy US manufacturing since long before Trump pointed out that Romney was wrong about Russia as the "...number one geopolitical foe." They slowly used "Deep State" agencies, including the EPA, to ramp up "regulatory arbitrage" (costs differences in various nations) and then played directly with energy arbitrage first by scaring Western leftists about using "fossil fuels" at all and then by getting involved in Venezuela and Iranian politics in order to get Western nations to "embargo" so that the international markets would funnel cheap energy towards Chinese manufacturers that are all owned according to Lenin and Mussolini's socialist "Corporatist" economic model. With no "bill of rights" the CCP doesn't have to follow any "due process" to seize whatever profits or control that it wants at any given time. They do allow "profiteering" to the extent that it keeps the charade going. But the CCP's motive is not "profit" but building an unchallenged dominance, a virtual monopoly, on all important manufacturing for the entire world. And of course this also requires an unchallenged military dominance for the time when some "liberal democracy" like the USA realizes what it let Clinton, Obama and Biden do in the name of "post Communist" era where all foreign policy is evaluated based on a nation's position vis-à-vis the "Global War on Terror" and "with us or against us". China is "against terrorism". Bush let them do what they wanted to do. And China started positioning itself to became the main beneficiary of all the Middle Eastern political chaos. And then Obama came along and slowly got "woke" with respect to who "the real terrorists" are. Bitter clingers and so forth. IOW, by the time Trump came along all leftist "thought leaders" understood that Trump was leading a new kind of Reactionary Capitalist White Supremacist Terror Movement" of the radical left's imagination. There's no such thing as "global capitalism". Marxism is all about rants against property rights in light of the "woke" view that all religions are nothing more than mendacious political systems that use fake morals arguments to shame people in to complying with the property rights regimes of "power". The problem is that property rights have never been the same from one nation to the other. Especially once fossil fuels became such a major factor. No monarch ever exploited control over mineral wealth in the USA to keep for himself and pass on to cronies. The same goes with productive farmlands. And yet we're supposed to be the worst "capitalists" based only on stupid Marxist "disparity" stories. Marxism has zero legitimacy in the USA and yet the USA is basically, according to all leftwing storytellers for at least 100 years, is the chief "root cause of multigenerational poverty". The most effective stories rhetorically all center around slavery. But that only works because it's supposed to symbolize "...how capitalism really works" by making workers "wage slaves". Marxists call contrary evidence "false consciousness". The whole thing is so easy to debunk that it's scary how few politicians are sounding the alarm. They must not care enough and think it's OK to follow the Social Justice Arc of History because they expect to be on all of those new Social Justice Councils that control everything.
