Meaning in the best case is correspondence between a word and a grop of other sensory inputs that an embedding lacks. So when you complain that this lacks meaning, the core of it is that it does not look powerful enough. Give me a better de

And what are we if not a bunch of interconnected atoms? Smash a person to paste and you will not have any deep meaning in them, no life, nor sublime substance making them different from the dust they were made of. What is special in humans?

The issue is that the EU and China are not structured to rely on internal consumption. We just cannot buy everything we produce. Fixing that would require years of carefully managed policies and at least for the EU, I've lost confidenc

So nice of you to teach me about the roma. I was sure to have never heard about them. /s The history of gypsies and their segregation is much older though and the regimes inherited much of their attitude based on prior prejudices. The

Surprisingly, communism was antiracist which explains why it was popular outside the US. There is the fact that many communists were racist on a personal level, but the state policies were inclusive due to the very nature of the ideology. A
