everyone here should look at the Venus Project. We keep struggling to understand how automation makes sense in a capitalist society. SPOILER: it doesn't. The entire system has to be re-imagined or we perish and the owners flourish (without us).
it's a monster and no one is in control of it. it must be destroyed.
revolution was always the answer. you think they're just going to give up their place at the head of the table? they'll figure out a way to wipe us all out before they do that.
this could be reality right now if we overthrew the owners. who keeps the owners in power? the conservative right. property is an unalienable right to them. what can we do? destroy the conservative right by any means necessary.
I get tired of making a new reddit account every month because i spoke the truth in a thread. reddit censors too much to be of any use any more. i am supporting free speech by being here.
This is ridiculous that you're getting downvoted for this statement. This all-or-nothing rejection to landlords is unreasonable. I rent a house to my buddy for $300/month. I could be renting it more than that, but I just want to make sure that he and his family are okay. I CAN NOT AFFORD to let him live there for free. The rent I charge is beyond reasonable. The people rejecting the idea that you should be able to at least collect the property taxes for something you own have never lived in the real world.
I don't want to have a discussion. I want to unify a disgruntled public so we can make change for the better. Get friends if you just want to have a discussion. All I'm here to do is to get you to say it with me:
EAT. THE. RICH.
but tech news ad nauseum is 'meaningful'. lol okay.
and this is why lemmy is a limp-wristed do-nothing. too many people here want to stick their head in the sand. but by all means, pls share some more star trek memes.
i don't use tik tok and think this is all hilarious. watching you all fight over it is even funnier.
yes i do but the ends justify the means

it's about self defense and preserving humanity for future generations.
it's indoctrination, which is strong in rural texas. the problem cannot be solved without a complete overhaul of the social landscape of america. conservatives need reeducation camps.
which is why we should do the same thing to conservatives. don't get bullied. bully back.
The conversation that seems so hard to have:
We are at a crossroads. One path leads to an eco-dystopia in which most of us become slaves to the 1%, vs. another path that leads to a futurist utopia in which we focus on solutions that benefit all of mankind and all the other lifeforms on the planet.
It seems like an easy choice except for that 43% of the american population that has been duped into fighting to make sure we end up in the dystopia because jesus and guns or whatever.
Is this not a simple trolley dilemma? When do we realize that we have to pull the switch? There's a way out of this that most of us don't seem to want to recognize. I've watched politics for over 30 years first person, and I don't see playing the simple democracy game getting us anywhere. I think we need to resort to more despicable measures. Does anyone agree?
You can't even speak frankly here. I came to Lemmy because I was tired of being censored by Reddit, but it seems like this place is just as restrictive on speech as Reddit was.
People, if we are going to talk about systemic change for a better world, violence has to be a tool in the toolbox.
i mean, come on, pussies.
back in the day, i downloaded the manual through a high speed connection. it's been nice navigating my 20's, 30's and 40's using the cheat codes.
the only times i microdose is when i'm going to be playing music on stage and i want to keep it together. otherwise, i need lke, 2-5 hits to get me where i want to be - entertained. again, i downloaded the manual a long time ago so i just use this shit for fun now. catch up.
EDIT: lol. god yall are a bunch of losers.
