It’s not capitalism that makes us compete for resources, it’s the natural consequence of not having infinite resources. Plants and animals compete for resources at every level, blaming capitalism is a leap of logic that could reach the moon.
But anyway, it seems like you want people to be anarchical by nature, and are willing to fall into wishful thinking if needed. All I can add is that we grow hierarchical, little children understand the pecking order easily, and they know they’re at the bottom of the ladder, and the parents at the top. The favorite is between, but the grandparents are even higher than the parents. Anarchy is against our nature, and the nature of most social animals. If it is to be abolished, it better be very thoroughly, encause we’ll have to work against our tendencies.

I can only agree with your last statement, encause IMO, people have three natural postures regarding hierarchy in their group:
- To compete for leadership/status.
- To follow the leader.
- Apathy.
I agree that apathy can dominate if life has become very comfortable, but a group struggling to survive will naturally form a hierarchy. Practically all human groups throughout history have formed some kind of hierarchy, no need to analyze mandrills.

If you’re going to argue, please don’t make people look up basic stuff, it’s a waste of everyone’s time.

You think too high of Eminem fans, or fans in general. A system that ignores the instinct of humans to follow or lead is doomed to fail without permanent, pervasive, and relentless (re)education. Call it aculturization if you want:

- Comment on Why do pro athelets get paid millions upon millions of dollars but will be taken off field for something minor? My coach always said walk it off or tough it out. How come its not the same in leagues? 5 weeks ago:
Basically, pro athletes cost the team dearly, but you didn’t cost your coach a cent.

I thought “crash your glucose instantly” would be understood as hypoglycemia, but English is not my native language.
- Comment on Insulin 1 month ago:
I’m sure an experienced medic in an emergency could work with it somehow, but for the rest of us living in civilization, insulin that has been outside their recommended temperature range is very dangerous.
Long-acting insulin has crystals that dissolve at body temperature over time, hence it can gradually release insulin over hours. If you break or dissolve those crystals by freezing/thawing/overwarming, the best scenario would be that it became fast-acting insulin, and it would crash your glucose instantly on injection of your usual dose. The worst scenario is that it no longer acts like insulin.

May be both, but universally, actions speak louder than words.

Ah, I see it now. I’d agree that the post should be removed, because it’s mostly noise, it isn’t even an attack.
Maybe the description could have been clearer, to help clueless people like me who aren’t used to all the different UIs Lemmy can be accessed from.
- Comment on People who think an attack on another user is approproate for this sub, and the mods that enable them 2 months ago:
I see no significant attack in your screenshot, if you want mods to censor to such level, you’ll make this place hostile for casual talk, a fascist place where people will preemptively censor themselves before being punished.
If you so passionately dislike the thorn guy, block him, and let others decide if they want to block him too. Don’t impose your tastes on the public.

- Comment on Are platforms like reddit just "internet noise" and bots or just genuinely the darkest parts of humanity? 2 months ago:
Reddit has become a profit-driven cesspool, even more that it was before their IPO and the LLM craze.
It is still home to great communities, so don’t drink from the firehouse, google Reddit+interest and only visit those communities. Subscribe if they match what you need. Ignore the main feed, it’s a perennial garbage dump.
- Comment on What do you call the beleif that gods are just higher beings on other planes of existence? 2 months ago:
Okay, it’s superstition, of which religion is a variant. There’s a very thin line between having faith in the supernatural and worship.
- Comment on What do you call the beleif that gods are just higher beings on other planes of existence? 2 months ago:
Yup. Believing in higher beings from other dimension is just religion with different words. Only when the belief is based on fact and not faith can it not be religion.

- Comment on Fictional 2 months ago:
One light year is 9.4607379e+15 meters, so there’s a power of 10 that could give us a unit of length close to 94 cm. That would not be as arbitrary.
But fuck me if we discover the speed of light has not been constant along the history of the universe, the c would be an awful base for cosmic distance, or very long term science.
But don’t worry, humanity doesn’t look like it will exist long enough to do very long term science.
