Except how are you going to change society without some form of power, which forces you to use the state? I wouldn’t call it utopian what they were describing, while anarchism to me sounds more utopian. Without the power to defend yourselves, the power of capitalists, current, former, or foreign will destroy you.
I consider myself a socialist, but shit, I live in capitalism too and have bills to pay lol.
So for a concrete example, if you end up in the worker coop for a finance company and own a slice of that, or work in Microsoft and are an employee-owner of that, you’d end up a lot better than if you worked in the fast food restaurant you work in. Is that kind of what you’re saying?
It sounds like it’s similar to saying climate change isn’t real because the weather was colder one day, when in actuality the theory of global warming is describing an ongoing process and tendency of the temperature to increase in the overall system overall long period of time, it’s not a day to day weather phenomenon you can describe with a singular slice of time.
Eh, the community is huge on Reddit so clearly the fans exist (and I’m one but just took a big social media break for awhile so that didn’t help). Lemmy just needs more people with more diverse interests.
Oh that is kinda sad.
I used it a little in a recent project, but I’m mostly a backend dev and am new to front end. When I Googlef how to make stuff pretty or improve UI, a lot of results were still related to Bootstrap, probably because it was so ubiquitous for so many years.
They poop on heads though, which is negative points for me.
The rest of the world needs to learn from the US’s failure like this ASAP. I think Europe might already be doomed judging by the way the UK and Germany are going, but others might be able to swerve to avoid a fascist future with the right moves.
Is that an app or what?
Just wanted to give an update that I started learning Linux. It’s been a pain in the ass to look up every basic thing I could do in Windows without thinking, but I’m sure I’ll get it down with enough use and googling for every error. Only been using it a couple days so far, but already starting to prefer the console over the UI for some things, thanks to the ability to quickly repeat old commands with the up and down arrow keys. It’s kind of exciting, like I’m starting the first steps to join the Linux club I see so much on Lemmy.
Oh nice. See, this is the kind of stuff I’ll have to look up lol
I need a practice laptop to learn Linux with…
The more alternatives to corporation owned social media the better! I hope it takes off, but I’ve never really been a Tumblr guy.
I think that’s Richard Wolff’s whole thing. I think he’s communist? At least socialist.
