That's OK, we have several one-apartment-building islands to choose from, such as the forest island (pictured here), beach island, temperate rainforest island, rainforest island, prairie island, taiga island, and tundra island.
equity? investment? bro, housing is for living in!
But there's barely any less green color in the suburb!
Perhaps my most controversial opinion:
I think that the CPC is being too strict by criminalizing written erotica
Arrest me if you dare, volcel vanguard!
I'm afraid it's true. Just one year ago, Cuba held a vote where the tyranny of the majority forced one-third of the country to accept gay people. Or else.

@Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net can you do me a favor and post this https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/dba509b5-6124-4e1c-87fd-31beedf79557.jpeg titled "bedtime maine removed post" ty <3
The chapo.chat deep state is preventing me from posting on /c/main.
The post is still up on our end, but if you go to their website it appears to have been deleted. The instance admin seems nice enough, but the /c/196 mods are frankly unhinged.
Well the post finally got deleted but it's a bit late now. π
This is very childish behavior to be honest. A simple no would have sufficed.
Ada, the admin of blahaj.zone if I understand correctly, has pleasantly surprised me so far with how cooperative she's been. My only experience with that instance was specifically with their 196 community, and they've been unhealthily anticommunist for a month now. I'm not really sure why our admins expected their top mod to be anything but a loose cannon?
Funny meme, or should I shelve it due to the reactionary IQ aspect?

Hoatzin babies use their claws to climb before they become full-fledged wings. Super cool! !shocked-dino
Sorry, that was me. I was busy defending the honor of Soong Ching-ling and the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang.
The runtime on this post got corrected to an emoji on Hexbear's end lol
Settlers are so psychotic they will systematically remove the ability for the land to produce food just to fuck over native life.
Ok maybe it would be a bit childish lol
Can we defederate them first? We can complain about their Pentagon propaganda or something. It would be funny.
Yes of course it is an issue. When TFR reaches 1 for example, the next generation becomes half the size as the last one. You can't have a healthy economy with that. There's also every indication that more and more countries are reaching low fertility levels, and there's no precedent that it will reverse. Social democratic childcare policies haven't succeeded. Personally I think only socialism can achieve sustainable population levels now.
So-called urbanists adding just one more lane. π
Hello everyone, I am posting on this community to solicit advice on avoiding heat stroke while not looking like a fool. Currently I own several 95% polyester 5% spandex short-sleeve button-ups as well as one 100% linen long-sleeve button-up. I find both to be quite suitable for hot weather, but would love suggestions that aren't T-shirts and button-ups. Additionally, what options are there for summer pants? And what actually looks good with shorts? When I wear them I look like a camp councilor - or worse, a kid attending summer camp. !ooooooooooooooh Feel free to discuss dresses and skirts as well, although I am personally not interested. Oh yes, and I suppose summer hats could be useful too. Thank you in advance.
We're all familiar with those Twitter threads about what job you'd want after the revolution. On the other hand, you may have run into those annoying Marxists that scoff at any discussion about communism and call you an adherent of Lassalle for having any vision for the future. Well thankfully the users on this website are quite a bit more chill, so I'd like to discuss what we can realistically infer about life under communism.
By communism, I mean the following: the dictatorship of the proletariat has been established, private property has been abolished, wage-labor has been done away with, the economy is centrally planned using labor-time, and these developments have occurred all over the world. That is to say, lower-stage communism, or the highest development of socialism that is technically possible in the present or near-future.
Here is what I have considered so far. I can elaborate if the logic doesn't make sense, and obviously criticism is fine as long as you're not a Redditor about it.
- The end of economic depressions - well honestly you can do this and still keep the capitalists :some-controversy:
- The end of unemployment/reserve army of labor
- Higher quality of life - most people will be paid more for their labor, abolition of profit means less appropriation of surplus value (still need to do this for capital investment and taxes), abolition of private property and inheritance will mean more resources for the social commonwealth
- The disappearance of anti-immigrant sentiment - there would be no downward pressure on wages, and the increase of labor to the social pool that results from immigration would be more directly beneficial to the average person than it is now (that said, most causes of immigration would disappear and also there could theoretically be resource constraints)
- Increased productivity - the higher cost of labor will increase automation, drive down prices, and lower the amount of necessary labor
- Automation - capitalism can only exist by extracting surplus value, which you cannot do to machines; thus automation can only be completed under communism
- More big projects - long-term, capital-intensive projects are usually avoided by capitalists although the state sector of some capitalist governments sometimes picks up the slack; we could expect more (1000 nuclear power plants, nuclear fusion, high speed rail, etc)
- The end of many diseases - China kept COVID-19 at bay for 3 years but a communist Earth probably could have eradicated it with quarantines
- Sustainability - capitalism pretty obviously cannot fix the metabolic rift but if we get rid of profit then theoretically it's possible
