who runs the courts though?

but is that reputation based on geniunely good things, or spin and propaganda?

only reaction to anything that pissface says should just be SHUT UP. Complete excommunication.

i like to browse “all”, i just ignore any communities i dont care about so they dont clog it. Ignoring stuff you dont like is also quite crucial, since YOU are the algorithm here.

Sort by new occasionally, that way you might come by interesting little communities that would get buried otherwise. I also just subscribed to bunch of communities from communities tab, just based on the name.

while the climate change is now inevitability, any improvement will still at least lessen the extent of the looming catastrophe.

governments cant be relied on to do anything, people should start taking matters into their own hands. Though I dont know who would be willing to risk all they have for small glimmer of hope for people who will live way after they have died.

i wonder if that was the only reason for this decision or if they actually thought things through

government = people who live in the country. So government services are literally by the people for the people. trying to profit from them is like having a parasite.

we need something else than just democracy, or at least something that would also protect the integrity of democracy from corruption. If we had something like that and it would function reliably well people who want change would at least have something to rally behind instead of just wanting change into “something” that isnt ever really specified and thus wont ever gain any traction.

maybe something that has semi hierarchy, that can be dismantled on a whim if needed? Have the best from both worlds. Like, anarchy + democrady -> voting system, but politican can be removed at any time by anyone, meaning that they have to actually do good job to keep representing people. Cant even try pleasing everyone and do nothing as that wont help either. Abusers get dealt with in same way as abusers get dealt with in regular anarchy. Though all this relys on humans being even semi rational and decent, which kind of makes it utopistic idea. But it would still work likely better than current only rich get to rule system. And besides, what is the worst that would happen? People vote against their own interests, get apathetic and do nothing?

At worst, nothing at all gets done as no one is in charge of anything, which would still be better situation than current one as at least things wont get worse and if there is some ongoing crisis going on that has to be dealt with, if people still cant get the head out of their arses to deal with it, they have decided to let it happen. Just as we have right now decided to let climate change happen by just pretending to do meaningful things to stop it while in truth just focusing to protect the wealth of the rich.

Every day we have less and less to lose. Any system seems better than what we currently have, though i wonder if soviet union got started with that sentiment. But something has to change because way things currently are are intolerable and by the time that transforms into physical need(like hunger) its too late already because everything is too broken already due to planet not supporting enough life to sustain meaningful civilization.

finland’s government is at the moment trying to fast track a change to constitution too

would anarchy work better in addition to some other system that does not rely on hierarchy?

i’m thankful for him that he didnt have to see what world has become

why would they? america is basically under foreign occupation, that is how much your government cares about the people.

desperate/suffering people are easier to control, i assume that is the main reason for this kind of stuff in religion especially since it has no basis in the original message.

should also promote the third party instead of just bashing both sides of the mas party

no he got a point. If someone started doing that they would just get captured and tortured or killed. What can you meaningfully achieve with random violence, alone? Owning a gun will not help you protect yourself against force that can hunt you down and use your loved ones as leverage. Its just copium so people dont organize thinking they have power to protect themselves if things get bad but they never will use it because they are alone and scared, rightfully so.

they seem to just stay under things out of sight

Isnt monopoly the ultimate goal in unregulated capitalism? Then you could get the most money with least resources used to give anything back, as people wouldnt have any choice and you could also keep destroying any competition. Then you also dont have to innovate or do anything except keep wringing out the profits from people.

but if you are smart and sustainable and think for long term, you get way more money than with short term profits?

but isnt idea of capitalism to make money for the people with capital? Any benefit like innovation is just coincidental, not the reason. If the ones with capital could prosper more through eternal stagnation, they definitely would. They couldn’t care less about other people than themselves.

So by driving these people into this, it demonstrates its own faultiness. Capitalism is as dysfunctional as communism, though for different reasons and it seems to have longer “shelflife”.
