I don’t know this would work. Right now, I’m using my pixels to add more fuck spez. I suggest you do too. Anything more coordinated than that would require fishing people out from every site they scattered to. We’re still pretty small.
Ideally, I think you’d want to use hydro and geothermal first, because they are local resources that can be built with relatively low overhead, and where you can’t, just spam nuclear (assuming it is within the country’s capabilities), with a massive storage-infrastructure-stabilized (preferentially offshore) wind and solar kickstart. Classical renewables have the advantage that you can build up capacity efficiently, and we are definitely on a timer here.
However, the real world is a little bit more complicated, so I think really we should just take what we can and not overthink it too much. Functionally, there’s no single, clean, silver bullet energy source.
I don’t think you should, but should we derive what is just from how much sympathy capital a given person has? Assuming your objective is to end poverty, etc, and to minimize suffering, then if you are ready to advocate for something like murder even in the hypothetical that you absolutely don’t need to, then you’re probably just letting your feeling dictate your actions. You can of course dispute that hypothetical, and there is definitely an argument to be made there, but a lot of people don’t and still go all in on it. Hence the problem with “wanting” these people to die, as opposed to “doing what is necessary”.
Hmm. I see it as a failure of his own responsibilities. To each their own, I guess. The power imbalance is certainly going his way. Otherwise, it could be argued that his being shat on in the ama was problematic? It’s a short message that encompasses discontentment pretty broadly. I think leaders need to be held accountable. To me, this is the equivalent of saying “fuck macron” or something, which is something me and a lot of other people do on a semi-regular basis. But behind it is solid criticism, and it’s a shorthand for protesting being ignored, silenced, or denied democracy.
Then isn’t it revenge, and not justice? Not that I would feel bad for them, and I understand where the feeling is coming from, but in actuality, I wouldn’t ever dream of condoning something like that if there was any viable alternative. I thought we agreed the death penalty was bad, right?
It seems most people there are on board with making a giant “fuck u/spez” in the center of the canvas. It’s not like reddit easily forgets, even if we don’t really do anything about it.
Someone is mad.
I wish more people would understand this. If you remove the capitalists, capitalism will just make more. You need to remove capitalism, though obviously the capitalists will fight you on that and you may want to remove them from the system anyway. In either case, a lot of eat the rich discourse sounds like it’s out of spite and not in search of actual solutions.
