If someone gave you 5 billion dollars to improve the world in any way you see fit, what would you do?

Kick them in the nuts (or the stomach, in case they don't have nuts), because relying on individuals with money to solve our problems is one of our fucking problems.

Fair enough. But I'd rather think of it as a torch that has been passed on and has to be guarded and kept ablaze. Lighting it was the hardest part, but the job's not done.

I know he's the pope and has to talk like that, but free speech is not a "precious gift". It's a hard-won right and "calling for it" is not gonna protect it. I swear to Nonexisto, if this clown gets the credit after the people win the fight, I'm gonna get an aneurism.

Posting an image of a person who is known to everyone as the (suspected) murderer of a capitalist, whom he explicitly murdered for his capitalistic practices, and referring to a distinct but similar set of calitalistic practices is not "a non-violent Luigi post". It's not directly calling for violence, sure. But the connection is pretty clear. If the Right did something like that, we'd probably call it a ((likely intentionally) poorly disguised) dog whistle.

I'm not saying the post is evil and ban-worthy. Which side an action is done for matters. You might say, the ends justify the means. But get your terminology right, and shed the centrists' illusions. And non-violence is an illusion. This is the propaganda theatre of a class war. And Reddit is fighting for the enemy.

Semi-serious suggestion: Guix or NixOS. They're not break-safe per se, but if they do break something, you can use the OS' previous generations to go back to an operational state. Just... don't let them use the commands that delete older generations.

(Semi-serious because they're both not exactly mainstream and not eactly conventional in their setup.)

Bis wife started screaming after seeing a "profane sticker"? Sounds like an "and then everybody clapped" story to me.

What can an individual do to fight against tech billionaires?

dogsoahC @lemm.ee 1y ago

On your own? Not much. You can stop using certain products, save money, and so on. But that's mostly going to help make your individual existence a bit better/less bad. The CEO's aren't gonna give a flying fuck.

But our strength is in our numbers. Get organized. Maybe in a political party, maybe "just" in some sort of collective that helps in an area you care about. Help others in whatever capacity fits your abilities and your situation. And don't expect it to be a quick victory. That will only result in disappointment. As a wise man (?) once so succinctly put it: "Apes together strong."

Das hängt sehr stark davon ab, wie lax man "links" definiert. Wenn man als Kriterium für linke Politik vage Zustimmung zu Menschenrechten, Umweltschutz und Demokratie (solange man nichts weiter tun muss, als alle paar Jahre zu wählen, natürlich) heranzieht, dann vielleicht. Aber mit wirklicher linker Politik, also dem hinterfragen systemischer Ungerechtigkeit und der wirtschaftlichen Besitzverhältnisse, hat das nichts zu tun.

Dieses Assoziieren von Bildungsgrad (bzw. Intelligenz, wenn man ehrlich wäre) mit rechter Politik ist genau einer der Gründe, die die "weniger Gebildeten" tiefer in die Arme der rechten Populisten treiben. Mit höherem Bildunggsstand hat man idR auch mehr finanzielle Freiheit und kann sich den liberalen Idealismus leisten.
