I don't fit into this world, or this way of living.
The mundane BS of going to work for someone else doing something I don't even want to be doing, just so I can get digital numbers put into my damn back account so that I can give those numbers to OTHER people just for the privilege of doing it all over again.
Sometimes I think this entire system and way of existance needs to burned, destroyed and buried and forgotten.
@Wetrix it’s called capitalism and it’s fantastic for crushing the spirit and independence out of human beings. It’s designed and run for the capital owning 1%. Socialism is the answer.
@CyberSocialist @Wetrix Socialism is an utopia in the best case, in reality it's a vague concept that is defined by everyone differently. In the worst case it's a totalitarian nightmare as in USSR and economic collapse. So socialism is no answer and never was - constant change, reforms, dialogue are the only answers that ever worked.
@kravietz @CyberSocialist to be fair, even that doesn't work.
There's never been a long term successful civilization and we're quickly finding out that capitalism is a complete failure.
These systems are not inherently bad, but anything that humans are involved in becomes corrupt and broken by our very nature.
@Wetrix @CyberSocialist It depends what you take for "long term". Communism longest survived ~70 years and collapsed indebted to Western countries. Capitalism in Europe and US probably 10x that and over that period, and globally people experienced crowing standards of living, health and life expectancy. This is an nicely visualised on https://www.gapminder.org/tools/ based on actual data.
@kravietz @CyberSocialist thx for that link I'll get a look at it tomorrow 🙂
What I mean by successful is one that simply hasn't collapsed.
Inherently by our nature no system will ever work. We are to corrupted by emotions.
No matter what system it is, greed, power, lies etc we will destroy it.
@CyberSocialist @kravietz you didn't watch the documentary obviously.
@CyberSocialist @kravietz human carbon omissions are not the cause of global warming.
Just like how they told us in the 80''s we were going into an "ice age" then in the 90's it was "holes in the ozone layer" now it's "global warming!"
The earth was hotter with more carbon in the 30's then it is now.
@CyberSocialist @kravietz the problem is that people that are to dumb to know better like extinction rebellion listen to idiots like al gore that has no clue what he's talking about.
The earth has ALWAYS gone through hot and cold cycles and climate change. We just happening to be living in a transition phase.
@CyberSocialist @kravietz if the earth's climate never changed we'd still be a tropical landmass covered in fur trees 😅
@Wetrix @CyberSocialist I wouldn't be that pessimistic, because the civilisation as we see it has *not* collapsed. It has recovered from the Plague, WW1, WW2, ozone depletion, overpopulation and gradually improved after each of these. Hopes are it will still find enough reason to recover from AGW and again take some lessons from it.
