Reminds me of a true story of a mother who died at home with her toddler in the apartment. By the time anybody noticed, 4 days later the child had been living off cereal and sugar, and he rubbed lotion on his mother’s body to try to help her feel better.
Oh I know. I was talking about the perception of the ignorant masses.
Bout the same time Biden the Bastard became a “Hero of the Left.”
What’s always astounding is how much a person has to actually know to be as stupid as Ben Shapiro (and Matt Walsh, and others). They have to study and learn in order to misuse the things that they’ve learned. It’s impossible to be this wrong on accident.
I’m very left wing. So left wing that I recognize that the USSR was a capitalist authoritarian state with central wealth distribution. Even Marxists can mistake the map for the territory. Marx isn’t Christ and Das Kapital isn’t a bible, but don’t tell them.
I was banned from Lemmygrad for statements that were critical of the authority of the USSR, and writings of their savior Karl M.
I was banned from Lemmy.world for anti-zionism. Most of the Lemmy side of the fediverse seems infested with authoritarianism that’s as bad as Reddit’s corporatism.
You talk a lot like an authoritarian for someone in a punk server.
I’m trying to orient you to the way your initial reaction is counter productive. You’re walking through a garden with a weedwacker, smacking down any idea that doesn’t meet your standard. Orient yourself to the “Yes, and…,” mindset. If you respond to a proposal, ensure that your input is constructive. It’s fine to express your doubts, but if that’s all you do then you’re stopping momentum and interfering with constructive action. Constructive dialogue is a core precept of a movement that I’m working on. It’s necessary to undermine Capitalist programming even in the way we interact with each other. Competition in the realm of thought and ideology supports the hierarchy of power that keeps us oppressed.
You could be proposing solution, instead of having me listen to your gripes.
A: The vertical farms don’t need to be load bearing. They can be created with bamboo, wood, masonry, glass, plastic, or other novel materials and lit with LED grow lights.
B: Using fibers or metal frames can add strength to compressed Earth. You’re also splitting hairs, if one technique doesn’t work then we can try others. There are new wind generators that are basically stiff, hair-like balloons attached to a mechanism that collects the energy harvested when the wind causes them to vibrate. There are countless solutions. Nobody is advocating for AI to do all of the thinking.
