“Richard stallman is not the emperor of foss!”
“… He told my dad he was!”
I’m in the South so when I was a kid a imagined the bears eating grits. It wasn’t until I was older than I learned that porridge isn’t grits
This is satire right lol? The utter lack of formattinf gives it away. Otherwise it’s just totally unhinged
Whataboutism
“Russia invaded ukraine! Putin must be held accountable!”
“Yeah well what about Iraq, 2003???”
I’ve met people who I think really relish being aggrieved. I don’t have even 1% of the interpersonal conflict in my life that these people complain about. I think that, while people do say things which offend them, they see these things as an opportunity to be a victim. Anecdotally, I’ve noticed a lot of these people usually have wealthy upbringings
I think most people just leave it in the plastic bag, but personally I have a bread bag that breathes so the crust doesn’t become spongey
I have never in my entire life seen an actual bread box, I thought they were a thing from England or something
Oh shit, I totally didn’t see that the marshmallow was biting the kid. The image is so small it looked like a power outlet behind him on the wall
I know what the marshmallow test is; I don’t get the joke in the comic. It depicts one of the kids who didn’t wait. Where’s the joke?
There are lots of examples where a socialist approach is preferable to unfettered capitalism.
None of the things you described are examples of socialism. Socialism is not “when the government does things”
Tell me why that’s a bad thing? Why should I care?
I don’t subscribe to any philosophy which advocates for the murder of its enemies
Did you read your own link? The one you yourself even quoted? It calls itself an independent socialist magazine.
Dylan Sullivan is an Adjunct Fellow and PhD candidate in the Macquarie School of Social Sciences, Macquarie University, where he teaches politics, sociology, and anthropology.
Which is why I don’t value his economics paper very highly
Richard Wolff, another economist, explains socialism in a very clear and comprehensive way. If you’re not intellectually curious enough to entertain Richard Wolff, I’m done responding. On the other hand, I’m happy to engage with someone interested in learning and discussion.
No serious economist refers to themself as a Marxian. A “marxian economist” is like saying “a psychic physicist”. Right off the bat, anyone who commits themselves to a pseudoscientific view should not have their scientific views taken very seriously at all.
To be frank, I don’t take anything economic commentary by “An Independent Socialist Magazine” seriously lol. Socialism has been so thoroughly discredited that anybody who willingly accepts such a label is inherently not a serious person.
“The standard of living was better before antibiotics! Nobody was poor!” lol, borderline religious nonsense
I think you’re mixing terms. Capitalism is the private ownership of property. Socialism is the worker’s ownership of property; often managed by a state (which in theory should be run by the workers). None of the things you mentioned are examples of socialism.
