  So first off anyone who says boring shit like calling you a “revisionist” or “read theory” is a moron unable to defend their position, they’re treating socialist theory like a cultish religion.

  Or to put it another way MLs are dumb, ignore them.

  Generally I think if there are state owned assets, work on them should generally be contracted out to cooperatives, as that puts workers truly in control (as opposed to being cogs in the machine) and allows workers to find a different cooperative to work at, but I don’t think there is any one “correct” answer.

  What if companies that offer a superior product are forces by markets to hold back competition. YouTube isn’t the exception, it’s the norm.

  Satallites are a really fucking dumb way to deliver internet.

  They are especially dumb for delivering “unstoppable” internet.

  If you want to deliver unstoppable internet the key is to make it impossible to detect, you’re much better running a fiber cable, but that ofc is pretty high risk if they discover it. Alternatively you want a mesh network that can change frequencies to prevent jamming.

  Basic pattern recognition from the last administration should teach Dems that a buisness as usual candidate, will be their last.

  Have you seen the response from communities? libs and apolitical people are on the streets ready to throwdown against armed thugs, that’s giving me a lot of hope.

  Electorally (sorry anarchists), even Democrats are talking about abolishing ICE, we’ll see what happens in the primaries if such Democrats can win control of the party, but even if they can’t what we’ve seen on the streets should scare them into compliance! Time to remind them that what is “legal” doesn’t matter if the will of the people is at odds with the “law”.
