Von Nuemann was pro first strike nuclear vs Russia. He believed that ww3 was inevitable (not an uncommon view back then), and to prevent it, Russia had to be destroyed. "why not bomb them today?" is how he put it.
A lot of these people like to say "well he wouldn't have done it if he was in charge". Nah, pretty sure he would've. Just like how some people impose neoliberalism on the rest of the world when given any power. Besides, Von Neumann also put quite a lot of work into calculating the exact height these bombs need to be exploded at to maximize human casualties.
Imo he was a demented psychopath that was fun at parties. Most psychos are polite people because most people are polite people.
Chomsky is one of these people that will work until his brain is decomposing. Work is different to him than alot of other people. By the way, he has actually slowed down a lot this year. Havn't seen anything come from him in a while. I think this means he's gona die soon. |
Figured it had to do with the bombing or I thought maybe his contributions to economics played a role with how much you hate neo-classical econ. |

I got a Netflix subscription after taking a break for a year or two. 98% of the Netflix shows suck, but I think the American series suck way more than the European/Asian/whatever ones. Do you feel differently as an American? I'm now watching Fauda which is based in Israel/Palestine and it's pretty entertaining.

I didn't say get a Netflix subscription. Netflix is mostly awful. Better Caul Saul would be the only thing to watch on there as far as I know and The OA. |

Chomsky has to survive another year so he can go through another season of who to vote for and argue with Brie Joy Gray for about an 1 hr over why you vote for Biden lol. Poor Chomsky. |

Not much is new at Netflix. At least nothing worth paying a subscription for. Disney+ is boring right now, too. |

Disney+ is the worst.
It really is down to HBO shows and good cinema as the kings of good drugs. HBO the ultimate dealer has at least 20 series that will take you higher. You could go to IMDB if you are an angsty teen but I prefer letterboxd top 250 films. |
