I apologize for centrist-slandering you. 😂

People bash centrism because centrism has allowed ever increasing wealth inequality that’s creating the material conditions for the fascism we see descending around us. Centrism is unsustainable. Many of us have realized how the process works and why the downward spiral can only be reversed by moving away from centrism. I’m not here to argue or discuss so please don’t reply defending it, it’ll be waste of time. 🥹 I’m explaining why you see centrism bashing comics.

Yes. I don’t remember which instance did this but I remember I encountered it some time ago.

Can vouch for this. I learned a thing or two from people who had the patience to explain. Including some ML people. @[email protected] for example has nerves of steel. Permanent snark isn’t useful but it’s understandable, especially coming from people who are being actively harmed. Repeating the same things over and over without frustration isn’t something everyone can do.

Are you aware that when they use the term liberalism, they likely mean economic liberalism?

And the harm reduction comes in the form of removing parts of the economy from capitalist control, which is … anti-capitalist.

Mainstream leftist parties aren’t necessarily leftist, especially economically leftist. E.g. the Democratic party in the US.

Our overton window is only a few degrees to the left of the US.

Also the Ontario Liberals conducted a UBI pilot in Hamilton during the 2010s with the goal of proposing some form of it as a policy if results were positive. The OLP lost to the PCs in 2018 and Ford canned the project.

Then there’s been the UBI experiment in Manitoba during the 70s.

Make a nice poster that encourages people to not just lurk, or dig one up if there’s an old post. Post it weekly in [email protected]

100%! Been doing it for a year.

Also, I find a nice way to fill my feed is to liberally subscribe to communities on Lemmy. I’m currently subscribed to 133. I set my feed to Subscribed+Scaled and that works incredibly well to show me what I care about. Then when I get bored, I flip to All+TopDay to get what I missed that day.

If they can deliver. But hey, we’re the VCs now. Not everything succeeds.

Are eggs gonna get cheaper now?

Also: what the actual fuck.

Lemmy.ca will be moved on a fat server in Vancouver colo. Currently on cheap hardware in OVH. Not sure about .world. Probably similar. AWS is expensive. So Bezos would have to have Trump annex Canada before he’d be able to put his fingers on us.

Go and sprinkle the simplest keywords in the thread - Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed - and tell them your experience.

What reason?

Oh no. Centralized social media fights back! 😂

Did hit it. Keep servicing that thread, you’re doing well. It’s blowing up a bit.

Repost this in other communities in Lemmy. Shitpost, technology, etc.

Do egg prices decrease now?
