True.
But as a “social capital” seeker, I’m keen to see more the typical italian mafia boss. He lives in a concrete hole in a small bs town but he can bend the government to his interests. That’s the pure love for the power.
Musk is way simplier. He wants people to say he’s good. He’s a child.
But he’s also an asshole, so people doesn’t love him and he doubles down, in his search for appreciation.
I think so.
It might do a difference in some situations, but probably not here.
AOC for example as a lot of power if compared to her wealth, while Musk sucks at politics and needs the money to achive power. At the same time AOC is galaxies away from the power Musk has just because of his money.
Putin for example wants to hide it, but he’s not only powerful, before the war was worth 200 billions. I see money and power like interchangeable things.
I don’t understand why you care so much, for me money and power get along 🤷
Sure, I took Elmo as a reference, bit I should have said the 1%, or the establishment or whatever.
The 1% needs a basement to stay on. The wider it get, the more stable it will be. Since the piramid it’s not getting taller anymore, they’re trying to make it wider at the bottom.
I’m 45 and since I was a kid I heard my father telling me his gen was the last getting richer than the one before.
We (westerns), did reach the peak and now every gen will be poorer year after year.
That’s why rich people is hoarding wealth like never before. That’s why Elmo wants to establish fascism, abolish worker rights and wants the people doing more childs. It doesn’t matter for him if we get even poorer, he just wants to make his wealth future proof.
Literally any socialistic country turned in a shitty dictatorship. Do you still need further investigations?
The biggest example is China. They opened to capitalism in order to let the greedy comrades survive in their power and what you have know? Chinese are free to earn tons of money, but not to say what they think.
It’s the biggest paradox of the world.
In the biggest socialist country capitalism is tollerated more then free speech.
Would be nice, but it just never going to happen.
We’ve been there already.
If it’s not the CIA it will be a coup from some smart ass****e high ranked in the military/party.
Humans are to greedy to live in a socialist peaceful world.
This or eventually give a total amount to the couple and let them decide to split according to their needs (with a minum each partner, maybe).
It’s the typical toxic corporate pressure.
Fuck machismo.
Well, you have a point there.
Got banned today because I don’t think socialism would work in 2025 🤷.
I understand people can “Think different”, but a cirkle jerk of US socialists in 2025 sounds like a strabic unicorn with three legs and two horns.
Yeah, I don’t want to waste too much time around them. I preferred to move further to this place, BS or Mastodon.
Reddit rules are kinda good thing, but instead of prevent exploitation from trolls and bots, it prevent the use from normal persons. Quite useless then.
Yep, I saw all of that happening, got shadow banned every time. Didn’t know VPN could be a problem but it seems so.
Do they track the devices too or info from the Android account?
I wonder how they could keep the people on the platform if they do not allow interaction.
Like many, I got kicked out of Reddit. Mainly because Russian, Chonese or religious trolls with a thin skin, but recently I think cause they don’t like too much anti-systemic statements.
Anyway. I would like to keep an account in order to follow the s/BuyFromEU and try to advocate for Lemmy and other decentrilized platforms.
Does someone knows what Reddit gets for info about a user? I mean what exactly they see about my IP address, cookies, devices etc?
I mean, you probably understand that being a new user and already getting banned for small arbitrary stuff gives a “Reddit vibe”.
I must be honest, I haven’t read the rules yet cause I believe I can act like a civil person. A rule that states “do no promote hate”, can be streched to any ban if you want and that’s what Reddit or people in lemmy.ml are doing imo.
Anyway, it wasn’t such a big problem. I like Lemmy and thank you for the effort to make this place working.
Initially I thought it was a Russian troll, but probably they’re like my still communist friends. Russia bad (or may even not), but USA anyway worse. People without hope.
Nothing much better here.
Today they canceled me one comment cause of a “Fuck Putin”, while arguing with a Russian troll.
Really thin skin. (on [email protected]).
Thx.
It seems to me dems didn’t cared about voting for Harris. Only 64% voted and Trump won with a 23% of the population, really not much.
RT???
Really???
