But then how will billionaires get to say they’re literally thinking of the big picture because they got to go on a brief space joy ride?

I hate to say this: the Hummer is actually more practical.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the amount of money spent on private jets by these billionaires in 1 year could replace all our lead pipes in the USA.

Billionaires are celebrities now? Like that’s true for Taylor Swift, but Bezos?

Probably because we’ll all be dead, which also happens to be a solution to climate change.

Yeah, translating “size of their contribution” to a dollar amount is going to be inherently political. If they’re leaving it open ended to let projects figure it out then that could go poorly…

It is like when racists say they’re race realists; it’s because the term “Soviet communism” isn’t that popular.

I don’t see where Engels says Administration is “central planning”. It certainly seemed to have been an open question for Marx when he talks romantically of the Paris Communes.

You have a sales pitch that works for the poorest countries, what do you have for the wealthiest?

Frankly I find this view disregards the differing material conditions that are present. Social Democrats are left of what the Americas have now, just like Capitalism was to the left of having a Monarchy. Your take is a-historical, anti-materialist, and thus anti-marxist.

The funny thing is I thought you were talking about all the genocides, including those led by Russia, but then I saw your handle and realized you mean only those done by NATO and their allies.

Don’t like it? Then start a revolution.

Reading their solutions is interesting; wanted to call out the following because it plays nice if you don’t agree with their whole prescription:

Don’t dilute the Open Source brand. Post-Open will never call itself Open Source, because it has different rules. The Post Open license actually enforces that.

The point is they don’t get fired for laying off staff.

The board doesn’t “let go” of people willing to do a hatchet job, they hire them into their other companies to do the same. “Failing upwards” is a term that comes to mind.

They are going to regret this?

A company doesn’t remember, and the people who are actually responsible don’t have regrets cuz the other option was to hand over control to someone else (hopefully more qualified).

That would have to do with Isreal’s domestic politics and how invading these other countries somehow made the prime minister more popular. 🤦

Yeah, obviously it’s the user’s fault for not holding crypto correctly. This is why my crypto is stored on a floppy disk that can only be read by my 8086 computer with no Internet connectivity. If you loose money it’s always your fault for not being prepared.

That’s not how you sell fish though. You gotta emphasize how at one time we were all basically fish and if you buy my fish for long enough, those fish will eventually evolve hands to climb!
