Yes, I am certain that your life will begin improving measurably when the food runs out.
Revolutions have had a history of dramatically improving living conditions for everyone as soon as the old system is abolished. The Russian revolution ended famine and doubled life expectancy.
Alternatively, there can be the simple recognition that breaking the system that exists will result in a mass casualty event
Revolutions also don’t have to result in violence (think of a mass strike across the entire country that never ends). But when capitalism gets desperate it will start a civil war if that is its only hope to maintain the old system.
And think about the mass suffering caused by mass poverty, genocide, minority oppression, political polarisation, endless war, boring work and the list goes on. If one revolution is all it takes to install a democratic society and fix so many of our problems, I know I’m on board.
Genuinly curious. With your plan to vote for the democrats to dig out of the hole the US has dug itself, how will you be able to vote for the party that you want to vote for later?
If Japan did think that, they thought it before several other countries in the world had nukes. I think any country has the ability to see that if they send nukes then they will be receiving nukes back to destroy them in about a few hours.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•According to Lemmy Users: Blockchain was a grift, AI is a grift, Quantum computing will be a future grift. So according to you what new and emergent technologies are not / will not be a grift?English
1·2 days agoI did put an asterisk there to be clear. As well china has had a history of not marketing it’s products, like ai, as the future of everything. So by putting to and to together I am assuming that china will probably continue to do the same in the future.

PRC: Eliminates poverty in tibet.

I feel like nukes are more just showpieces than item that anyone actually considers using.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•[Ethics] Why do people condemn Zoophilia on the basis of other animal's inability to consent but those same people kill animals without asking for their consent? Why such inconsistency?English
7·4 days agoWe literally grow food to feed to animals. And then we have to spend time hearding the animals moving. Slaughtering is a decently evolved process (I think). They don’t give us the meet for free, we have to put effort to take it.
My original question was rethorical. There were never any sane rich people.

6·5 days agoThis is what I was most excited for. There is just one vague mention of it in the KDE changelog and it still says “coming soon” on the plasma Bigscreen website I think they just need a bit more time to polish it up and make some documentation.

I think the problem is capitalism is so unnatural there is no accurate point of compariso.
I was watching some conservative news a few days back and it was so funny how many times the said “alleged” or “allegedly” when talking about abuse by Israel on people a part of the freedom flotilla. While simultaneously showing videos of them getting beaten by Israeli officers.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•What a great excuse to have complete access to all your picturesEnglish
33·6 days agoI’m pretty sure big tech already had access to all of your pictures, and I don’t think this means the UK government will gain access, they don’t even know what to do with it anyway.
