Everything after the ? in the URL can be removed. That’s all trackers so they can follow who shared what.

You are saying that capitalists own the means of production, while “little capitalists” don’t.
I don’t think its useful to lump in high-income professional work with the low end of capital accumulation. The sums may overlap, but the actual class interests don’t, at least not entirely. Good analysis should recognize the distinctions here.

I’ve always wanted to ask a flat earther why I only ever see full moons in the eastern sky at night and never the western sky. I don’t suppose they’d have a canned answer, so I’m curious the to the response.
- Comment on How to get attention around here. 3 weeks ago:
I was using “markets” interchangeably with “capital”. I do agree with what you, I don’t think you can escape markets as a social phenomenon, and at the same time they cannot be allowed to decide our political future. Our current setup is tantamount to ductaping the lever down on a lawnmower, and declaring that the “wisdom of the engine” knows what needs trimming.
- Comment on How to get attention around here. 3 weeks ago:
Markets incentivize and reward selfish behavior. A different system would incentivize different behaviors.
I swear, it’s like we’re stuck in the 20th century when it comes to this. It’s like designing a multiplayer game. Throw a thousand people in a RUST server, they’ll behave one way. Throw that same thousand into Deep Rock Galactic, they behave completely differently.
- Comment on Why does China have so many multi billionaires if they are aiming to be a communist country? 3 weeks ago:
Gotta disagree here. You can have capitalists without them being in control of the state. That’s what most of Europe was during the early modern period. Capital existed, but political institutions were mostly still geared around the aristocracy and the Catholic church.

I believe the thinking is that you can’t really have the state wither away while capitalist states remain predominant on the planet.

Suppose someone in that era became def and blind as an infant/toddler. Do you suppose they’d ever be able to learn to communicate?

I’d love to hear someone who thinks Helen Keller wasn’t real describe what they think the late 1800s was like.

I’ve heard the Wachowskis said it was inspired by it, yes.

I was disappointed by The Way of Water. For a guy who’s spent more time undersea than… basically anyone who isn’t a navy soldier in a submarine… it doesn’t really come across in the movie. I mean, we didn’t even see coral bleaching! In what is supposed to be an anti-colonial environmental movie!

If we’re being nitpicky and technical, stick to the moons of Jupiter. Anything outside our solar system is practically inaccessible. Information that can’t be discovered with telescopes is gonna stay undiscovered. The deep ocean and the little shoal of our planetary neighbors at least has the potential for further study.

I agree, Gen X deserves some of the inter-generational posting spat.
I’ll start: the “Mtv generation” is largely freaking out over people breaking gender norms. Guess its only ok when Prince does it.

Is it really reddit and lemmy to blame, or is that just how groups of people… do? What else are we communicating for? Ideas meat other ideas, they interfere destructively and constructively, and new consensus is built. Repeat.

Blaming learned behaviors and beliefs on genetics is stupid behavior and only reinforces eugenicist assumptions about humanity.
