    I wish I could live in your dream world. I‘m not even kidding, please give me a piece of the propaganda where I can for one second believe that socialism and some benevolent dictator or something is the magic pill to save the climate. It might soothe me. Link something.


  • Wow yeah the government, judging by your writing style even the US one, which side are they again on? Corporations or people (if they even distinguish)?
    Let‘s check: https://www.vox.com/2014/4/18/5624310/martin-gilens-testing-theories-of-american-politics-explained

    Or as they put it, “economic elites and organized interest groups play a substantial part in affecting public policy, but the general public has little or no independent influence.”

    The only reason they‘d have the fediverse on their radar is banning it in favour for some platform that lobbied them, like say Meta.

    Anyway, luckily this is a global and decentralised thing and I for one like not waiting around for a government to think, decide and do anything and everything ever for me. I‘d rather find an instance admin who doesn‘t sell out at the first sign of a dollar.

    If that takes me spinning up my own instances to contribute to that and have at least one place which doesn‘t sell out, I guess I will.

    Agreed, I hope we have more sympathetic and nicer people in charge while we run the world into the ground too!

    Since I‘m a woman, I feel like maybe we could let some more women help run the world into the ground too, just a lack of representation there that‘s a bit disappointing.

    Totally, none of the more socialist countries have any of these issues whatsoever, completely climate neutral, zero emissions, zero toxic chemicals spills, no overfishing, no deforestation, no paving over everything with more roads and factories.
