badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

haha just kidding… unless?~~(if they offer the Marxism program in English like some of their other tracks I would legitimately have a hard time convincing myself why I shouldn't go for it)~~

If you’re interested in climate change, Tsinghua also has this program in English https://yz.tsinghua.edu.cn/en/info/1035/1183.htm

Epstein convicted June 2008. School of Marxism founded July 2008. Coincidence?

I know English programs are really easy to get onto, but can you even join Chinese ones without a gaokao score?

edit: oh it’s a program for foreigners but taught in Chinese.

Deepseek says 北大 offers Marxism courses in English. Also maybe Fudan in Shanghai. Don’t limit yourself to looking only at the very top universities though, can’t imagine teaching quality is that dramatically different for English-language courses. If you wanna practice Chinese especially you’d best avoid BJ and SH.

Can confirm, learning this the hard way. Coming to a top Chinese university will mean that your local peers will be among the top students in the country, and thus they usually won't have the free time to connect with foreigners.

imo Tier 1 cities are fine for practice once you are at an intermediate level, but yea as a beginner it can be way too easy to take the path of least resistance

EDIT: I didn't really consider what unaware said in terms of classmates, that's different than just local interactions and is a good point
