Capitalism and fascism

Jump

  • Good points but my question is more about governments that work at the scale of a nation state.

    • Capitalism and fascism

  • I've read Marx and I'm happy with my interpretation

    • Capitalism and fascism

    Jump

  • I'd say that Marxism at least is fatally flawed. The idea that you start a Communist society by gathering all power to a central council is the issue. Once power is obtained it's never willingly dispersed. This has been the fate of existing all communist governments

  • Which system IS stable? AFAICT every system ever has allowed some people more power than others and those people cleave more power to themselves over time. This appears to be how most empires fall

    • 'Grow up': Rudd goes after Tenacious D for a Trump joke. It's 2024, baby!

    Jump

  • It was a joke

    • Donald Trump calls for Taiwan to ‘pay’ for its own defence

  • It's fucking unhinged

    • Elon Musk says SpaceX HQ officially moving to Texas, blames new CA trans student privacy law

  • What an utter twat

    • World passes 30% renewable electricity milestone for the first time, decline of fossil inevitable

    Jump

  • It is, by definition, not inaction. However I agree that change is too slow.

    Jump

  • It used to be SFA now it's 30% number go up is positive

    • Google and Microsoft consume more power than some countries

    Jump

  • It is negative while the grid is majority fossil fuels

    Jump

  • Which wasn't what the article was claiming, hence your post being a strawman

    • World passes 30% renewable electricity milestone for the first time, decline of fossil inevitable

    Jump

  • Firstly the article does not say that 30% is sufficient. Secondly, this was always going to be a journey. We don't get to near 100% without first going through 30%. The article wasn't saying 30% is enough it was saying that the trajectory is positive.

  • Yeah I'm a meat eater and I wouldn't touch foie gras. Fucking horrible

  • Cows are one of the worst things for the environment. Massive production of methane at the cost of more water and land than any other protein source. Getting rid of methane works be the quickest way to dent global warming given how much worse than carbon it is (in the near term )

    • I like C programs for their speed

    Jump

  • Java isn't slow

    • Switzerland mandates all software developed for the government be open sourced

    Jump

  • Awesome!

    • But don't say it out loud

    Jump

  • Raegan was a similar character previously. I don't doubt they will arise again. Certainly, there are many Republicans with the same reactionary politics.

    • But don't say it out loud

    Jump

  • Trump is just the logical conclusion of the christo fascist takeover of the Republicans. It will be there when he's gone
