Why don’t you have a second account?
Lazy. Don’t care if my shit gets fucked. But if you do care if your shit gets fucked, then you shouldn’t rely on centralized social media.

Do you think you could work towards ActivityPub integration so it would be able to talk to PeerTube instances? IMO diversity is strength but cooperation is a factor in success. Hope this project goes well and is fun 😁

So what is the difference between this and PeerTube?

Even if we can’t, should we not try?
Of course we should try, that why I said it feels like capitalists can’t be rehabilitated, not that they definitely cannot be rehabilitated and we shouldn’t even try.
Yes I’m definitely biased to predict that almost all of the capitalists wouldn’t succeed in even attempting to rehabilitate themselves, but I’m absolutely not willing to close the door for rehabilitation either.

What are you smoking, and can I have some?
Like yeah there’s lots of disagreement within the anarchist movement (which is a sign of a healthy critical space!) but all anarchists agree in broad strokes that hierarchical authority is not good and for this reason that the state, capitalism, and property must be abolished, like this is the minimum ticket price to be an anarchist and has been since Proudhon.
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
I mean there are psychopaths out there who don’t do heinous things like these people. Like it would literally be ableist IMO to tar all psychopaths with the same brush as Epstein and company.
- Comment on Rent is theft 3 weeks ago:
Anarchists by bare definition are not anti-anything except permanent rules and laws. Banning rentals would make you a tyrant and Anarchists would hang you for that.
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
There are degrees of sickness, right?
Absolutely, 1000%. And the example you gave, 1000% with you on the possibility of rehabilitation there. Frankly, I think that 99.9999% of people can be rehabilitated in finite time. The other 0.0001% are literally the billionaires and their cronies. (And I believe that this is numerically in the ballpark, since the billionaires number about 3000 and there are about 8.2 billion humans on this planet.)
On the other end, people in the Epstein files might need to be hospitalized for more than a single human lifetime.
Yeah that’s really who I’m talking about when I have my doubts about rehabilitation for a very small subset of people.
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
The “monster” framing precludes the idea that they even can be rehabilitated.
Maybe this makes me a bad anarchist, but it truly feels like capitalists are monsters that can’t be rehabilitated. Like I really want to believe that everyone can be rehabilitated with enough help, but can we really rehabilitate the few thousand people who are like Epstein in finite time?
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
Think less illness and more…idk…corruption of the mind?
Yeah I’m with you, but I really think it’s crucial to make a distinction between framing it as an illness vs framing it as the logical conclusion of the capitalist mindset, for which we have thousands of pages of prior analysis to understand.
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
Affluenza is a capitalist framing. We don’t need to capitulate to capitalist framings (not even the tiniest amount) to say that the capitalists need to have their assets seized and be involuntarily committed for rehabilitation 🙂.
- Comment on Starting to think affluenza might be a real thing. 3 weeks ago:
The problem with “affluenza” is that it is used to deflect responsibility from these capitalist monsters for their atrocities. Like it’s not an illness like influenza, you don’t just “catch” it and suffer the consequences through no fault of your own.
- Comment on Income Tax Is Theft 3 weeks ago:
Broke: Taxation is theft, therefore it’s bad. Woke: Taxation is not theft, so it’s okay. Bespoke: Taxation is theft but stealing from the capitalists is good, therefore taxing the rich is good.
- Comment on Rent is theft 3 weeks ago:
Anarchists are anti-rent too. See this user’s comment. Anti-rent and anti-property has been a staple of anarchist philosophy since Proudhon.
Really, any socialist worth their salt should be anti-rent.
I think number of home units should be strictly limited
We need way more home units, all of them free.
- Comment on Rent is theft 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, anarchists don’t like capitalism and rent-seeking behavior either. See this comment by another user quoting anarchist theorist Peter Kropotkin’s The Conquest of Bread (this is “the Bread Book”, and where “breadtube” gets its name from). (Kropotkin is not the first anarchist to come to the anti-property conclusion, and in fact it has been a staple of anarchist theory since Proudhon.)

Awesome so it’s a variable named X. Set X := 10^100 and you have passed all your classes for life.

- Comment on YSK that the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is one of the best engineering school in the world. You can take free courses at MIT online. 4 weeks ago:
Agreed…but they also do a lot of useful engineering/math work, and they’re giving it away for free (well if you’re AmeriKKKan you already paid for it, but now you get to access the thing you paid for).

I mean this is just a good post even if the user is sus. I’ve learned lots of stuff by watching MIT online classes.
- Comment on Does university email give you any free server? 4 weeks ago:
Check your university’s policies. Unless you can justify it as related to your education, you probably won’t be allowed to do it if they notice it.
