So as a leftist that I think identifies with Marxist-Leninist ideology but that didn’t find the communist manifesto an interesting nor easy read (it was small but not really approachable) are there any books that you recommend? I’m no economist but I do like reading logical arguments as to why capitalism doesn’t work, or better said, doesn’t work for the good of the majority but instead for a small minority (for whom it works very very well)

i.e. you want to give the companies the guns to go hunting for food, except you still want to tell them what they can hunt, but you don’t have any guns yourself. But surely they will obey you and not point out that they have the guns so you should make whatever rules they want
In this case “you” is either the OP of this this thread or just a general you
The “my company works with bitbucket or gitlab”.
I’m the release manager for my company. I’d have so many fucking contributions 😅

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Why Lemmy is so superior to Reddit: No Karma, Just Value ContentEnglish
1·2 years agoI have the same issue
Sometimes it’s the multiple posting, sometimes it’s just old posts that are still active and getting comments. Like 2 day old posts. Since they get so many comments still it’s likely that lots of other people are seeing them too
even my grandma was aware that there was a lunatic in the White House who encouraged domestic terrorism and we live across the Atlantic and she doesn’t even speak English
This isn’t on the level of which economic policy is the best for long term sustainable growth. This is just recognizing that Trump is an incompetent piece of shit that will admit to scamming whoever he can (and admit it) and literally anyone else and that if Trump won the US is fucked
I mean no
In an election between Bush and Kerry (the guy who lost 2004 election) or something like that then yes. People can be annoyed or just too busy to vote.
This election was perfectly clear that the future of US democracy was at stake and more than 1/3 of the voters decided to not show up. They decided that they were fine not choosing and as such fine with either option. I mean even if the choice was between Trump and a dog, the dog should have won by a landslide. 4 years of nothing would have been miles better than the decades that US is going back.
This presidency is already catastrophic and it barely even started.
I don’t even know how the US and the world can handle 4 years of this shit at this pace.

1·2 years agoI get your point but tbf they aren’t exactly cheap ass quality. I am always actually surprised that they are fairly decent
Ofc if you buy some they will sound even better but the free ones are still better than no plugs for both health and sound reasons. Without them not only is everything super loud it is also very noisy (frequency wise)

Reddit@lemmy.world•The word "Luigi" is now flagged by automod for violence on Reddit
9·2 years agoThe worst thing about the API changes wasn’t even that most people didn’t care or weren’t on board. It was that they were actively against the people protesting. In real life when this happens I always give some leeway because everyone has their own problems and they might be a bit annoyed by the protest action (which is part of the protest). But on Reddit?? People lost their fucking minds because they couldn’t have access to some subreddits for like 24h.
Sooooo many people failed to realize that even if you didn’t use third party apps that it would still affect you even if indirectly. They didn’t even have to do anything other than literally do nothing/something other that browsing reddit for a day. And they couldn’t. They vilified and downvoted the protesters and took the side of the billionaire trying to take advantage of everyone ruining Reddit in the process
That fiasco in pretty meaningless in todays world events, but fuck, I still find it a great insight into how much we can suck as a species

Like the inside jokes were really good on Reddit like the switcheroo one, or the guy that always had that whole comment that ended in the wrestling scene but most of them were just repeated to death

I mean, honestly Reddit is a dead site walking. At this point is not if it will “die” but how fast and I guess more importantly where will its users go. Hopefully here but who knows
Of course they would be spending money. That would be ridiculous. They would me MAKING money of course



That seems great! I’ll definitely check it out
Any communities here on Lemmy that you’d also recommend?
And thank you once again!
