Regulations don’t work when they don’t get implemented, which means your ideas are purely ideas and not materialistic solutions. There aren’t going to be any regulations, don’t you get it? That ship has so obviously sailed.

There isn’t a better solution that’s not radical and that’s why radical solutions all that’s left!

This is literally idealism.

You have an idea about a market solution to the problem, and then act like you’ve solved the problem.

The problem isn’t a lack of ideas! The problem is a lack of implementation! You have to get these ideas into the real world somehow, and revolution is the only way you can do that. There are billionaires aligned against implementing these ideas. You have to stop them.

It keeps crashing and not loading stuff correctly and giving me lots of hang time.

A lot like Reddit around the time I left Digg

There are too many structural problems with the extractive economy for our current society to survive. As resources dwindle and climate change gets worse the smaller countries will start to collapse and entire regions will go to war over resources. Billions of humans will be forced to migrate out of uninhabitable zones around the globe and they’ll do anything to escape. The ones that can’t escape will eat each other (metaphorically and literally).

There won’t be a singularity. There probably won’t even be a global internet in 30 years.

Yeah yeah, Republicans are objectively worse for workers.

Don’t pretend like the other party is pro-worker, though.

If everything is nuanced, then “everything is nuanced” must also be nuanced. As such, not everything is nuanced.

Take your post-modernism and shove it :P

I’d considered it and dismissed the idea before, but I think I was just scared of transitioning.

Then I got to feel what I was missing and knew what I was missing out on :)

He’s from the liberal camp that doesn’t believe in politics.

The President is a celebrity figurehead that sells his moneyed backers’ ideas to the public. That’s it.

When we started wearing masks at work, I started to get called ma’am a lot.

I started hormones the next year.

Which party shut down the rail union strike?

Leninism is good, actually.

Believing that everything is nuanced, though, is absurd.

Will y’all still be laughing when he signs legislation sending prisoners to do essential labor? When he starts buying more prisoners from other states when the Florida prison population runs low? Or when he starts rounding more people up to be new prison labor?

That’s how fascists work: they double down.

When all you have is a hammer, all your problems look like nails. There were sometimes… excesses.

I’ve wanted to leave since the old shitredditsays days (had the handle /u/outwrangle ), but back then there weren’t any good alternatives (SA cost actual money and Tumblr went to shit after it was acquired by Yahoo) so I stayed on leddit out of a lack of alternatives.

The blackout is just the brd finally coming to free us from the hellsite. I will never return.
