So, how can it be prevented?
- Comment on Solid Plan 🧓 1 day ago:
That more equitable system doesn’t come from nothing. Without preparation it will be like the end of the Roman empire, when local warlords, called knights, were organising the retirement plans for the peasants.
- Comment on What a great idea 5 days ago:
I don’t think that. I think that a good society comes from interacting with people and helping them develop. There is no need for separate spaces if people teach each other how to use credit cards or how to pack bags efficiently.

For a place as left as Lemmy, the idea of shopping without disturbing people is surprisingly popular.
It’s like Socialism, don’t call it by its name and everybody likes it.
- Comment on If the protests in Iran win/topple the government what will it look like immediately afterwards? Also what would be the good or bad about installing a monarchy again? 1 week ago:
My guess is that it is about establishing this supply line for a war with China and Russia.

I can’t imagine that the protests succeed. If they do there would be a power vacuum which should allow for the independence of the Kurdish and Azerbaijani regions and maybe also of smaller regions of other minorities. Contested land, e.g. with Qatar or Iraq could also be taken.

Wealth distribution pyramid has $100,000 as limit to top 7.7%.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_of_wealth
So $90,000 could be the cutoff.
Of course students don’t have that. However I would include anybody into the top 10% who will own $100,000 at one point in their life which should be anybody with real estate or a private pension plan in the West.

I could literally live on plain potatoes for the rest of my life and I’d be fine with it.
