I am not really sure capitalism is the problem, rather tech and politics. I mean, do you have any practical alternative to the oil industry and also a handful of skilled politicians that will convince most of the population to consume less than they already do for a few years while we implement this new tech?
The point isn’t the economy, is those which consume it: us, we, me and you.
Not really sure what they are getting on here.
Since when laughing at people losing their homes is a now a political thing, exactly?
Censorship is a constant. Power dynamics is a thing and will always be. Thinking that any of those big players truly care about any ideology is a mistake and the only true way of seeking “freedom of speech” is really to find your “tribe” that can support itself.
That’s why we came to Lemmy. We don’t want to be censored by big boss, we’d rather be censored by the owners of the Lemmy instances because at least they are closer to us.
What’s going to happen is that you will now start listening more to people that were censored while your guy was in power, while they got censored for their opinions, as bad or as good as they are, you had your chance to speak, now as long as you are using mainstream media you will sit and listen like the good user you are.
The choice is yours Neo, either wake up and understand power dynamics or sit and listen like a good cumsoomer.
The choice is yours.
Still, someone is paying those oil companies, and I cannot see a bigger culprit than the end consumer. I mean, we don’t really have a choice in the matter since we alone have no power over it, we either accept it or, well, go dark.
