Holy shit no, Jesus Christ, I like this place because I don’t get called slurs. How could you possibly think that’s even worth saying?

I think there’s more women on the lemmygrad instance, at least in my experience.

Oh, you’re a capitalist? Show me your vast swaths of capital then

You’re missing an essential part: Marxists are the only ones who can view society in a scientific light. It’s like being frustrated that everyone on a community knows so much about a topic, it doesn’t really make sense to be frustrated about. What, when you say something dumb are people too happy and fast to correct you? If you want to feel smart start interacting with YouTube comments, if you want to learn then maybe understand what the actual diverse viewpoints here understand about the world.

Based

That’s weird because me and your mom were having a chat in bed last night and she was saying she actually regretted it after seeing how her son felt about women

No I vote democrat consistently for all it does, I was just advocating for a socialist project outside of the electoral process to apply pressure on the rich people who really call all the shots. Please join a socialist party that exists in your area, whether it be the PSL, DSA, CPUSA, or even just something local that I have no idea about or label.

Voting got us here, I think it’s time to think beyond simply voting

The person you replied to’s been on a very online streak the past couple days. Most of my post history was one long thread where they wouldn’t listen, don’t even try 💀. But I can say that if you want to live a lifestyle without needing big corps so much it’s hard to do without friends who have the same ideas. I’d see if you can find a Food Not Bombs near you and start volunteering on the weekends. People are really nice there in my experience

Dude come on you didn’t even look at my infographic, don’t you care about the sanctity of truth online?

Omg doggie 🤗

Techbro beanie babies

How can you even say that, check out this graph

Here is an article by a chinese marxist scholar that goes over really well how the PRC has replicated the singapore economic model to great success. If you reply without reading this I’m just going viciously mock you again.

Banks and capitalist businesses accelerate environmental damage despite overwhelming world public opinion being that scaling back and tackling climate change is really important, so no this isn’t a defense of banking and capital etc, I’m saying this is an especially terrible outgrowth of that. If you really think comparing banking and bitcoin’s energy use is possible, useful, or worth doing though, it’s not, because bitcoin money transaction stuff and all the money being pumped into it pushing up the total required computing exponentially is by the same freaks who take out trillions in naked shorts at the expense of actual material production or print most of the world’s fiat currency in the past two years so keep their shit afloat. Bitcoin is bad because it’s an extension of that terribleness and not an escape from it, even if it somehow wasn’t being used by speculative rich people it would just run into the same issues as real life capitalistic currencies and create a new different class based system.

Bro 💀 just log off and read a book or something god damn

You continuing to comment is self harm at this point

Lol cope

Bro this is literally a meme you can not say that these two disconnected articles imply there’s a systemic solution to governments stopping crypto. Literally try and convince one person in real life around you to do this in the case that crypto is made illegal.

Communism is unattainable in current society, there are no communist societies yet, and communist revolutions only put a communist party in charge of a country or region that still has to exist in the current world order. There are no communist nations, because nations arose primarily out of class struggle and a communist society would be one without class struggle, so no country, so there never will be a “communist nation”. We can only right now put a party in charge that understands and is guided by socialist theory and socialist principles, which is called AES (Actually existing socialism).

Revisionism is misunderstanding basic socialist theory like what you just typed

None of this is related to crypto anyway, you just don’t understand that new technologies will incentivize people to use them in specific ways, and these incentives in this case create an overall terrible effect on society that has already ruined lives and wastes precious labor and engineering talent. That’s why I’m saying you’re young, because it’s something you understand when you get old, and it’s not something I understood when I was young.

The incentives created by crypto lend itself to being used for bad things no matter the original intentions of anybody who makes any system or writes any code, the longer it’s allowed to exist as meme currency the more harm it will do to society at large. Any number of small stories of somebody actually being able to pay for a burger with only $100 of gas fees are massively outweighed by families losing their money because mom tried to get rich on a shitcoin because they’re poor and looking for any way to get out of their economic strife.
