Capitalism is the paywall of life

  • This argument is invalid. You don’t die of heart attack.. you get shot by the cops my friend. /s

  • Totally agree.

    What I mean is the state should define rules and enforce them. And for critical industries the state can support / supplement the companies.

    This way big corps cannot have monopoly.

    My main issue with capitalism/ USA system is lobbying and allowing corps to do what ever they want in the fine print.

  • That is the point capitalists cannot comprehend.

    Twitter have resources to crush small social media apps. Monopoly is a serious issue in capitalism.

    If people own a company similar how lemmy is open source then they would have resources to fight back big corporations.

    • How do you keep docker/podman containers up-to-date?

  • I use watchtower and hope nothing will break. I never read breaking changes.

    When an issue happens, I just search the internet or change the tag to a known working version until the issue is resolved.

    I can afford to have my server down for a few days. It’s not critical to me.

  • I’m interested to know more.

    Some people only think of bad vibes of the Soviet Union when anyone talk bad about capitalism.

    In my country, we have free healthcare, free education, livable wages, free market.

    We’re not capitalist tho. A mix of socialism and capitalism.

    100% communism is bad, 100% capitalism is bad, 100% socialism is bad.

  • This is why I prefer socialism over capitalism.

    In socialism, I’d be poor and have no choice of what I buy or eat but I can live and afford having children.

    In capitalism, where you have freedom, the same rules applies to poor and rich citizens. The difference is that the rich can afford lawyers and are able to lobby to change/break the law on their favor. You don’t.

    This is how the cost of living would go 100% up and you wage increase by 1.34% each year.

  • I’d delete my account and join an instance that would defederate from corporations

    • Why Defederating from Facebook/Meta is So Important

    Jump

  • I think most lemmy users are against federation with meta.

    Mann .. I’d spin up an instance and defederat from them if the majority of admins decided to federate with meta.
