There’s no such thing as “true socialism,” that’s part of the point of the article.

Sure, but it provided a reason why the previous attempts of it failed, and in my opinion it's only a part of the equation.

Why do you think Socialism cares about thinfs like self-serving people?

Socialism can not care, as it's is not a conscious entity. Socialism can only "care" about whatever the people that are trying to implement it care about. And it failed every time in large part, IMO, because people didn't care about things like self-serving people.

Not as gospel, sure, but they have been proven correct.

Proven correct by whom? Soviet Union which fell apart? North Korea that haven't collapsed yet only because it's propped by China? China which had Mao starve tens of millions people to death and is currently successful only because it's full blown capitalist and "communist" in name only?

Thanks for linking the article. I like most of its points, but I don't agree with this materialistic outlook that the economic development is the be-all and end-all solution to implementing "true" socialism.
I believe that the root cause of all attempts of it failing so far is that humans are selfish assholes. Unless everyone bar none starts caring about their brethren and sistren at least as much as they care about themselves, the system can't work. It's simply too prone to being overtaken by bad faith actors who will inevitably abuse it for self serving purposes in the name of "socialism".

Marx and Engels were constantly hounded as “authoritarian” for advocating for central planning.

Well maybe these two guys were a product of their time and had some not-so-good ideas, so not every word of theirs should be taken as a gospel.

I'm theory, yes. In practice the idea of socialism has been hijacked and subverted by the same ruling class to serve their nefarious needs time and time again. Y'all should focus instead on how socialism is incompatible with authoritarianism. "Power to the people" my ass.

Thanks for calling tankies what they are: fascist.

Why the half measures? The should just nuke them outright so that all that asbestos becomes safe by turning into glass.

IIRC there was a game that when you open a pause menu ran at like 1000 fps, frying people's GPUs

Unfortunately most noise from cars at speeds above 30km/h is due to tires hitting the road surface, not engines.

Are you talking about kids or animals?

That's how you die of asphyxiation

YOU DIVED

Poorly

You might want to check out the smaller EUCs. There's a bunch that cost half as much as Onewheels, while still having more power and range.

EUCs that go 30+ mph have way bigger wheel diameter than OW, way more power, and a lot of recent models have suspension. Also wearing proper protection is essential.

No, the patent is specifically for the ones that you stand sideways on, like on a skateboard.
Also all electric unicycle manufacturers are based in China, which doesn't care about patents much.

The king is safe as long as the pawns are fighting each other

Yep, and the more braces the harder they laughed at your joke))))))00

I like the one of Isaac

Wow would love to go through it and check out how the overworld looks like

Back and forth forever
