I love that I can easily correct and annotate bike lanes

Typical dues are 1-2% of pay

These layoffs didn’t happen because Google is out of money. It’s insanely profitable.

I’m an anarchist, and my take is that anarchism isn’t pacifism, and “no coercion” is a bad summary. It’s more about the absence of hierarchical coercion and instead distribution of power to all people and communities.

If you’re going around burning down houses, your anarchist neighbors are going to use force to take away your matches and gasoline if you don’t stop.

Left libertarianism was first… But nowadays it only exists to “well actually” people with, at least in the US.

You good, man? You good?

Cigarette butts, the thing op is complaining about, are not mostly ash. They’re mostly plastic. Not cool to litter.

Constant capitalist and corporatist propaganda: I sleep

A single anticapitalist idea: real shit?

There’s a lot of space in the left that isn’t stalinism. You can be a communist and have a deep critique of how 20th century communism worked, a learning from it and not wanting to repeat the bad parts.

In leftist circles in the US, weird Stalin and Lenin fans are loud, but ultimately not that common.

Socialism is not inherently authoritarian. Yes, 20th century socialism following Lenin’s example was. But it’s not inherent.

Socialism is about workers controlling economic production - at it’s core. That’s a democratic, anti-authoritarian idea.

Libertarian socialist like me are extremely salty at the leninists and others like them for giving the rest of us a bad name.

You’re gonna have to explain a little more about this because on its face I don’t see why I should read what a specialist in the philosophy of science has to say about an ideology based on a historical and sociological analysis of the world. They’re totally different spheres.

Plus, Marxism is not the entire left, and there’s a whole world of thought out there that very likely covers whatever issues you’re thinking of.

What’s the cross posting implementation? I’m not sure I’m getting what it is.
