Wow. Looks like I’m going to start watching InfoWars.

That’s a sentence I thought I’d never say.

I think in addition to that, we should force all corporations to be worker-owned cooperatives in order to bring demcracy to the workplace.

Yeah, he’ll just get his 6/3 Supreme Court majority to rule that the president is also immune to state crimes like they already ruled for federal crime.

Oh, I do. But also we need major campaign finance reform as a constitutional amendment banning private money in politics so even the Republicans won’t be able to take big money.

They have no easy path to fix it because they take billionaire and corporate money. If they stopped doing that, the path would’ve been obvious this entire time.

DNC Leadership would rather lose with a neoliberal candidate than win with a progressive one.

That’s because they’re paid by big money donors to prevent any movement to the left while big money donors pay the GOP to move further right. This shifts the center (Overton Window) further and further right over time, causing the Democrats to ultimately move towards the right over time.

Obama said that if he was a politician in the 1980s, he would be considered a Republican, and he wasn’t wrong.

I had that same revelation back in 2016

As if that wasn’t already known.

Historically, yes. Thankfully, history is known to not repeat itself.

Snowden’s leaks are a big reason why I got into politics and FOSS and a big reason why I’m a socialist today.

We need a different voting system or it will just keep repeating the same situation indefinitely.

Just install the NewPipe flatpak and replace the apk with whatever.

Liberalism doesn’t start with axiomatic capitalism as a first principle, but rather acknowledges that it’s hard to have individual liberty without the concept of individual material ownership.

This is a misunderstanding of what socialists mean when they say we need to abolish private property. To socialists, private property and personal property are two very different things. Private property (also sometimes referred to as the means of production and sometimes but not always includes real estate) is specifically used to turn a profit, whereas personal property (stuff like your TV, couch, food, bed, car, etc.) is property that is owned by individuals. Socialists do not believe that personal property should be abolished, but they think that private property should.

That being said, my personal beliefs are that we should have an economic system that guarantees all basic human needs to all humans, which includes housing, food, healthcare, water, sewage, power, internet, heating/cooling (depending on location and climate) while giving the workers ownership over the businesses that they work for (essentially forcing large corporations to become worker-owned co-ops) while incentivizing small businesses to continue to be created and invested in. I’m not sure how to feel about forcing small businesses to be worker-owned co-ops, since I feel like that would decrease incentives to start them and invest time and money into them.

Professor Richard Wolff calls this socialism or Marxism, but it doesn’t have the centralization of economic power that previous socialist experiments had, with the USSR being the largest example.

I really hope archive.org has a backup of itself somewhere.

AntiX runs great on my late 90s Celeron rig with a 1.2GHz single core socket 370 Celeron with 256MB RAM.

Runs waaaaaay better than Windows XP and slightly slower than Windows 98 SE.

But were they MATA stickers?

We’ll see if that one random kid dressed in green managed to wake up the giants in time.
