- Comment on Since militaries are authoritarian, even in democratic countries; What would a military of a stateless/anarchist society look like? 5 days ago:
If it is possible for a stateless society to exist long term then there is likely no longer a need for militaries.

Stop using the internet. You will literally never be safe online. If a fascist regime like the US wants to find you it will.
- Comment on What art style you want to reproduce? 1 week ago:
I really wish I had the dexterity to create textiles especially through crochet but I would also love to make rugs similar to the Incan style but this requires much more skill. I also really love pottery and wish I had the time, materials, and money to engage in it regularly.

- Comment on Do you think Social Media is just exaggerated as being placed of being the source of all problems? 1 week ago:
The actions of capitalist are always inherently political when they effect the working class but I know what you mean
- Comment on Do you think Social Media is just exaggerated as being placed of being the source of all problems? 1 week ago:
The issue is not necessarily social media as a concept its how social media interacts with the profit motive to encourage addiction and hate.
- Comment on What's so important about keeping military operations secret? 1 week ago:
They involve killing people and you gotta make sure you aren’t the one being killed which is easier to do if your enemy knows your plans
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 2 weeks ago:
If by poor representation you mean misrepresentation then Islam hands down. If you meant lack of representation then I’d say zoroastrianism and celtic paganism. There are plenty others I’d love to see but I picked what I did because we know enough about them with enough certainty on details that we could accurately represent them if we tried.
- Comment on Why is a two-party system considered democratic? 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, democracy is incomplete without economic democracy. You could have a million political parties but it wouldn’t matter because all of them would still support the supremacy of the bourgeosie. Those with actual power, the business owners who control all of our material resources, would not allow them to exist otherwise. We never had democracy but this is only just now becoming apparent to the general populace.
- Comment on Why can humans seemingly only imagine like 3 different forms of government in different flavors? 2 weeks ago:
Because political systems are not purely ideological. They are derived from a material (economic) basis and must satisfy existing relations to production or change them. In our case the two primary relations to production are those who own the means of production and those who produce. Under the economic base of capitalist production there are multitudes of political superstructures but you will be most familiar with the liberal democracy. This form of political structure provides some extra freedoms and luxury to its domestic working class but is only able to do so while maintaining the infinitely expanding profits demanded by capitalist production by exploiting a foreign working class for cheap labor. When the cyclical crises of capitalism eventually places an insurmountable strain on the liberal democratic political superstructure which can no longer hide or balance the class contradictions at its base you get one of two things. Communism or fascism. In the case of fascism it is essentially the owning class going all in, exploiting a foreign working class stops being enough so their imperialism turns inward on their own working class. Since they cannot increase oppression on every worker without inciting revolution they pit one section of the working class against another often along ethnic lines but who is pit against who is arbitrary. An out-group is intentionally created and alienated so that the owning class can maintain economic power. In the case of communism/socialism it is basically the workers taking full control of the economy and political superstructure because the capitalist class failed to maintain it. There is also anarchism but I am not well read enough to speak on it too much.
In short, western liberal democracies have essentially only two classes and the economic contradictions that the state exists to mitigate originate from a conflict of interest between these classes. If we are to be frank there is only the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, the dictatorship of the proletariet, and classless society.

Reddit is publicly traded so its moderation has become intrinsically tied to politics. The many capitalists who own stake in it have political interests and this is just a manifestation of that unfortunately. Can’t even say luigi there anymore

- Comment on Reddit will warn users who repeatedly upvote banned content 4 weeks ago:
The motives behind the actions of these groups are vastly different though. A corporation silencing anti-establishment speech is not equivalent to lemmy moderators abusing authority in their micro-feifdoms

IQ is a stupid pattern recognition measurement made by a eugenicist and has been used to justify racism ever since. Don’t take it too seriously, it does not measure intelligence.
