    Does a site like that have proper communities for things like spirituality, Zen, audio equipment and drugs?

    I think its pretty self explanatory that we are already in an echo chamber since I never fucking said anything about what my political beliefs are. The current lemmy community is kind of okay to keep up with the events in the world, but still dogshit. And I want to look at the conservative bullshittery even less.

    I have high standards.

    99% of lemmy is: bashing and memeing rich, companies, conservatives. Posting outrage and celeb articles. Honestly these issues are not even on my mind a fraction as much as it is for most guys here.

    Im mainly hanging around for my preferred topics to reach a critical level so that it will be enjoyable.

    As of right now, even main lemmy sites like technology is not even about technology but this bullshit “how Musk fucked over twitter at this moment”. And look at that. Wasnt this trend taken 1:1 from reddit. I cant clean up properly because this spam keeps leaking into my feed. I cant subscribe to my only preferred communities as they are too small.




  • I was reflecting on the original comment since that is the origin of this debate.

    And I did not mean that as a sincere question whether you know an alternative structure to capitalism. I think you cannot avoid it as it is inherently part of whatever you do, that is what I have been pointing out in multiple paragraphs.

    I dont think there is a way to make it work better for the majority. Larger systems have unavoidable exponentiality and slower self-correction ability.

    Except maybe some of the wealthiest countries that have no natural resources. Those are usually pretty uniform.

    I think the highest aim is almost always progression and growth. The right circumstances are most likely the lack of easily exploitable resources within a certain society.


  • What is the context? Seriously. Capitalism in my view is a controlled framework within which the general agreement is to give a wider control to individuals so they can create arbitrary entities that are more suited to solving certain issues. You can gain money, thus you are incentivized.

    Here are actual systems/organizations that can limit capitalism to small scale endevours:

    1. feudal hierarchies
    2. communist regimes
    3. Nazi regimes
    4. autocratic dictatorships
    5. small scale communes
    6. Military juntas

    Countries that have an actually good reputation in human rights, pollution, political conduct, are the most serious players of capitalism.

    The only reason the heavily socialist swedish subsidise your arse to no end and even make you found a company as a child, is so that you can do capitalism on a higher level. Well functioning socialism requires well functioning capitalist system. They synergise.

    So if you come to me with something like “capitalism bad”, I got no fucking way to react to that constructively. Elaborate, why did you arbitrarily put all the issues on the word “capitalism”.
