That’s awful

This is now in many countries, not just the US

People get the leaders they deserve.

Sadly, they often do not.

There is always the option of non compliance.

Personally, I don’t think this is the answer. Like, I get it, and it’s a sure way to avoid having to deal with all this bs. But at the end of the day, the only people who suffer from this decision are the end users. It’s punishing them for something their government has implemented. Doesn’t seem right to me.

The future of industry is doomed with gen z being militantly unwilling to take a phone call. But I am holding onto some hope because I hear they’re also spearheading the CD music revival, so I just hope they also recognise the retro-coolness of telecommunication.

Otherwise, the art of verbal communication will die. People will meet and connect via text, only to be completely overwhelmed when they meet irl and have to talk to one another face to face. But social life is inconsequential. However, at the end of the day, if you can’t talk on the phone for the purpose of business communication, your just a fucking pussy.

The future is self-hosted digital media. I’ve got no qualms with pirating media. But I am an advocate for buying digital media from artists directly.

This article reads like it was written entirely by AI, and I’m willing to bet the “Promt Author” won’t deny this either given their promotion of AI. Its not just the em dashes, there’s a particular AI vernacular that’s becoming more and more obvious.

I don’t disagree with the idea that we need to prepare our future generations for the rapidly changing world of technologies etc, but like most others in the comments, I’m sceptical about embracing these technologies without careful consideration for what it means for generational knowledge and human intelligence in general.

Because we’ll always be too scared to say no to the US. We’re their bitch at this point. We’re a little less loud than they are, but we’re just as fucked up where it counts.

Sadly I missed it. Was it recorded?

You’re not wrong. But save some love for Udbhav Tiwari

What time zone?

Very basically: communism is not “everyone gets paid the same” and it is not “no hierarchy ever.” You can still have inequality in income, status, or lifestyle. The core difference is where that inequality comes from.

Under communism, the means of production are collectively owned, so no one gets rich purely by owning things other people have to use to survive. You do not get passive power over others just because your parents did well or you happened to own capital first.

The baseline is that no one is excluded from basic human needs, food, housing, healthcare, education, safety. That removes the permanent underclass capitalism reliably produces. From there, differences in pay or quality of life can exist based on contribution, skill, responsibility, or scarcity, but they are not allowed to snowball into dynastic wealth and structural domination.

So yes, different jobs can lead to different standards of living. That alone is not capitalism. Capitalism specifically requires private ownership of productive assets and wage dependence. If everyone has equal access to opportunity and no one can hoard power across generations, you do not end up with the same class system we have now.

The honest answer is also the boring one: real-world implementations vary, some badly, and no system guarantees fairness automatically. Communism is about reducing structural exploitation, not pretending humans stop being human.

People saying “everyone will just do awful jobs out of pure love” are overselling it and hurting the argument. Incentives still exist. The difference is that survival is not used as the incentive.

TLDR: Capitalism uses deprivation as motivation. Communism tries to remove deprivation first, then argue about incentives afterward. Whether that succeeds is the real debate.
