There’s a reason we talk about collective self interest. There’s no point in organizing human societies otherwise.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump State Department official has called for mass sterilization of ‘low-IQ trash’English
11·1 year agoYeah, they don’t want this to happen. It would kill off their base. I guess it wouldn’t matter once they’re in a permanent officialdom, but if you’re trying to run a democracy, that ain’t working.

politics @lemmy.world•US federal judges consider creating own armed security force as threats mountEnglish
21·1 year agoWhat did it say in the article?
I believe they are saying libertarian leftist, not hyper capitalist nutjob lol
I don’t think “not so bad” is the best phrase for that. Not as bad, certainly, but I have a difficult time saying “not so bad” about any kind of capitalism that isn’t already transforming into something like market socialism.
I get what you’re trying to say, but a real Tyrannosaurus rex is far more frightening than that.
You think he was lobbied directly for the confirmation?

2·1 year agoThis is exactly right. I don’t believe in property ownership anyway, but even if you do, it is still irrational to chase this from a social and economic planning model. Life should be affordable for everyone. Period.

2·1 year agoExactly. I never want to hear from someone making >$300,000 that I should be eating lentils all week.

5·1 year agoI totally agree with you that this is true, but I think it’s more a problem with reactionary thinking than anything else. The way I see it, the type of thinking that leads to reactionary comments is individualistic solutions to social and economic problems because you’re not allowed to question affordability.
People of all ages pull this shit. I can’t count how many times some millennial on reddit made unwanted suggestions for a poor person’s budgeting or grocery purchases. It is obviously difficult for older folks to understand things they’re not experiencing, but I don’t think that’s the primary issue.
Ask any traitor lunatic under 40 what to do about high prices, they’ll tell you exactly.
I started asking questions whenever some right winger would start in with the whole “here’s what you’re doing wrong” routine. “And you think this will help the far left succeed?” or “So you believe that’s the best way to get people to vote for the leftist candidate?” Just messing around since they are obviously not providing legitimate feedback.

politics @lemmy.world•Dem Senator Says Party Needs to Stop Attacking ‘Oligarchy’ and Focus on Losing ‘Woke’ ReputationEnglish
151·1 year agoPeople are clued in on oligarchy even if they don’t quite know the exact definition. After Bernie and AOC started their tour, it was Wikipedia top 5 articles. Slotkin is just a right wing traitor.

3·1 year agoDo you mean pogrom?
Why would traitors care at all? They just need to be stopped at this point. Stop the machine, dismantle it, replace it.
People who say “you must be fun at parties” deserve a whole lot worse than prison.

That is some free speech right there!
