very loud minority

That is getting more and more power, which is the problem. And this will exacerbate all the other problems.
And I don't really think that "serving guaranteed citizenship" from starship troopers was a raging endorsement of the system

It absolutely distracts from building good not car-centric infrastructure, almost by definition. The mindset that the only problem with car-centric world is that they emit prevents north america from developing better way of organizing the places people live in. Windmills or not, concrete sprawl where you need to have a personal car to go everywhere is bad

We are talking about people moving around, not working vehicles.
But also, if you have a good rail network you kinda don't need that many semis, if any. Specialised small vans will do the trick.

What does that have to do with that, friend? Car doesn't do it either, specialised equipment does. We are talking about people moving around, not working equipment.
The fact that you work on a field or whatever doesn't mean that your village can't have a bus route and your town can't have a tram line

Rural areas could be not car-centric

They have their part in the solution, but the more we rely on ev the less we do more important stuff like public transportation, walkable cities, proper zoning, less unnecessary office time, etc. If we remove every petrol car ever and just make them all ev we will still have an enormous problem, but while we doing that we necessarily neglect everything else. Making the society not car-centric is more important, that's where all the focus should be. Remaining cars should obviously be electric.

Contribute or perish!
Drug users are arrested because they are not contributing and there is no way person could just be a person and not a nice productive bee

I think you overly critical of him. His content is still good, and the video you mentioned is called "I buried myself in cement to explain how it works", and even if you dislike this one, it's one of many

That's something that was kinda sorta true 20 years ago, but not anymore

Yes, really. There are no ethically sound reasons for a person to have all this money when there is so much inequality. Moreover, there is no ethical ways to accumulate all this money. If you are billionaire either you or your daddy had to do a lot of explicitly unethical shit, and in order to retain it, you have to do unethical shit, actively, right now.

Survivalship bias

I am sure they saw it frequently

Murdering the civilization by knowingly and willingly create conditions for climate change: normal behaviour, good, commendable.
Public non-violent protests against that: extremism, bad, scary.

I am forced to do it by my employer

In the future anarchists envision the concept of rent doesn't exist. Unless they're ancaps, but those can put their disagreement back to the dark place they crawled out of

On one hand there is a looming creep of fascism, disproportionately rasing cost of living, car-centric hellfrastructure, and everlooming threat of medical debt, the concept that is baffling to anyone from any developed country. On the other hand the encryption of your phone is regulated slightly tighter and you need to diy it if you need.
Well, I really don't know what to choose.

Take this oil-baron founded Q nonsense out of here

Living time is not working time though. That we just should normalise more. Shitty employers are trying to make people work overtime regardless, so the solution for that is the same, no matter where are you physically.

Yeah, and dying in prison because you disrespected the glorious leader is worse than living under the bridge because you can't afford a rent working three jobs.
But if we were to think of a system that will be an improvement, switching from barely regulated ancap dream to something managed not by profit but by desire to give people necessities is better for society. And it will have to involve a government.

US is default on the internet, that's just how it is. I'm not from US either but still living in this paradigm.

I’m just saying making the government the landlord wouldn’t necessarily be any better

Yeah, obviously it wouldn’t necessarily be any better but it's hard to be worse
