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 @Wetrix ALL based on fossil fuel extraction. Well done capitalism eh?

@CyberSocialist @kravietz global warming? No.

@Wetrix @kravietz no, that response is distinctly anti-science. The evidence is clear: man made CO2 being added to the environment through the burning of fossil fuels since the dawn of the industrial revolution (and not-coincidentally the beginning of the Age of Capitalism) is changing the earth faster than at any time ever before. There is no science to show the opposite.

@CyberSocialist @kravietz yes there is. Lots. Actually.

Start with what they tell you in documentary.

@Wetrix @kravietz one documentary:/ right....

@CyberSocialist @kravietz and you talking shit with n use the internet. It's not just one documentary.

@Wetrix @kravietz ‘the internet’ isn’t peer reviewed science my man. Critical thinking might help you out here. The internet is not science

@CyberSocialist @kravietz Umm. That's what made the internet. Science. You know, like that stuff called electricity. 🤓
