No, you are not.

You have not been targeted if you were not also targeted under Trump. You are not a victim.

No, you haven’t.

As much as I can without harming those who depend on me.

Depends on the country, honestly. In America, I’m more inclined to believe Syndicalism would work, reform won’t meaningfully happen from within.

In general, I’m anti-tendency and believe that the material conditions of each space need to be analyzed independently.

Full agreement, way ahead of you. Instead of having a robust, publicly funded infrastructure-based necessity (internet service), it gets chopped up and sold piece-by-piece with price-gouging and local monopolies like warlords.

Technically, Lemmy itself is a “radical left” platform. That was its purpose in creation.

To be fair, choosing Lemmy over Reddit is absolutely a political choice, hence people here are going to be more politically-minded.

Just finished Signalis, got the “Promise” ending. Feel pretty empty after that, it’s such a good game and is further proof that games don’t have to have incredible graphical fidelity or huge teams to be fantastic and look great.

Co-ops are cool, but markets in general have far too many disadvantages for me to advocate for market-based Socialism over a non-market solution.

Markets are extremely bad when it comes to proper allocation of essentials. Infrastructure in general should be nationalized at minimum, and heavily invested in.

Nationalize internet.

Not just mods, but the entire Capitalistic model.

By contributing to the building up of the productive forces. Fuck this stagnation bullshit, invest in infrastructure and urbanization, invest in clean energy, and automation. Cut out meaningless jobs.

Leftists go to Lemmy because Lemmy is FOSS, ie leftist, and was made by a Communist. Reddit mostly has liberals.

Spoken like someone who has never been targeted based on the political climate, and hasn’t cared for anyone who has.

Capitalism itself is the scam, ownership is fake justification for exploitation and suggests a false level of meritocracy. Capitalists aren’t Capitalists because they are smarter or more competent, but because they have money, and can grow that money in the M-C-M’ circuit.

Minimum wage is an absolute necessity because Capitalists would abuse their power to pay as little as possible otherwise. The only places a minimum wage are proven to be unnecessary is in extremely unionized countries where Unions have all of the bargaining power they need.

Yep, fucking terrifying.

Hyperloop should be halted and replaced with high speed rail, and starlink should be nationalized. Musk keeps rinsing and repeating his grand privatized infrastructure projects where he essentially embezzles public funds.

You’re blaming people’s struggles with financial goals on poor planning and financial literacy, and making it a personal failure, rather than a systemic one. The reality is that people already understand basic financial literacy, but simply don’t have enough income to meet basic financial goals regardless of budget.
