Of my two examples, one is a cooperative, indeed there are people in Spain who go work there, and the other one is not a country, but a people inside Turkey, who has to military defend their existance
I’d be very happy to go work in Mondragon or another worker cooperative. I was looking for a job in one yesterday

If you are interested on contemporary socialist economy professors talking about the experiences in the soviet union and in China, there are some, Richard Wolff is a nice one to start with. He carefully explains concepts of Marxism and to what extent they were applied in various cases, but then focuses on what current socialists advocate for.
If you want working examples of non-capitalist systems, that are sorts of socialist systems, we have worker coops such as the Mondragon coop in Spain, or the Democratic Confederalism of Kurdistan
If you are not interested in learning anything of socialism past what billionaires’ propaganda tells you, you are very free to do so

“Those in control” should be the workers, otherwise it’s not socialism, no matter how dictators like to call themselves
“Everyone treated like crap except those in control” applies to capitalism too, especially in colonised countries

Popularity is a curse, and the fix for a fair economic life is anti-capitalism
Capitalism will exploit people’s qualities, if that is looks, they will exploit that too

Imagine have your parents control your looks
Like, your parents growing up in the 80s deciding how you’ll look in the 10s

Tbf to them it’s not their fault that the once leftwing party “randomly” decided to put a boneless liberal right before an election that had them winning for sure
I wonder what lobbies and their media have to say about that magic trick

- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 3 weeks ago:
I just really have to say that in my experience and for what friends have told, that is simply not a realistic concern in my mind
As for it being “more common” than abuse, I just have your word for it. And I simply don’t believe it. Because female friends talking about sexual abuse is something both more taboo and more frequently happened to me, than male friends telling me they had to jump a date because the girl was a gold digger.
Hence our difference of views on this
Ofc my suggestion is not to date people until you know them a bit, if that’s so common in your life.

Yeah… you see, exactly because people who think like you exist, women have to look for clues right away that they are not going to date a misogynist…
Women need protection when meeting with strangers, basically all women have life experience that make them feel they need it. I’m sure you as a guy are able to take no for an answer, but your date doesn’t know that yet, and it takes just one guy who doesn’t to ruin a woman’s dating experience and possibly her health and safety.
I do know women who don’t feel that need, but that’s mostly because they are ignoring their own and their friends’ past experiences. It’s their choice ofc, but it’s universally accepted among women that it’s not a strange thing to do, in fact is the safest thing to do.
If some women then abuse that need to try to freeride, it’s another discussion, and as a guy I would simply drop the date if I were in that situation. But the need exists, it is valid, and not validating this need to your date will raise a red flag.

I see… Yeah I’m pretty sure that in such a case, where I’m expected to pay, not even asked to, I would definitely cancel, be it one or two people… This is so uncommon in m6 experience that I didn’t even think that could be a case
- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 3 weeks ago:
Mh is he not showing he’s annoyed by her friend tagging along? And why bringing money up?
I mean, if it were happening to me, where I live, I wouldn’t even think she was going to expect me to pay not even for herself, and if she ends up expecting or pressuring me, I just know she’s not the one. What’s there to be scared of? Worst case scenario I just leave my part on the table and go away
I know of memes about women going to first fates just to have nights out without paying, but it’s very far from what I see happening where I live, and I suspect it’s just manophase echo chamberism. Because, again, one can just put their part on the table and leave, and perhaps date within one’s social circle so to avoid this kind of social distortion

Dude showed he’s annoyed seeing girl seeks protection, by calling the friend RoboCop, and implied she might have wanted him to pay for both, putting carriage before horses.
What you say literally can often show what you think inside, and in a first date scenario every sign will be interpreted
For example, not showing much respect for the female need for protection on a first date can mean dude doesn’t think women have reason to feel unsafe

I read B’elana as a point that the chief engineer doesn’t always need to be some composed nerd. Even a person with deep anger control issues, with interest in (Klingon) religion, can be a good fit for that position and can stand her ground to a literal Borg.
Plus ofc Janeway + B’elana and + 7 later, meant that most science-related decision were made by a group of women.
But as everyone on the cast, once 7 and doctor were out, the screentime was really compressed 😶

Difference being that the ? in URLs separates the resource from additional information
So unless some website decides to identify the resource in those query field (for example search results pages in a web search), you are generally safe
In any case, messaging apps will try to navigate to the site to create a caption for your message, and that can be a way to check if it works or not

- Comment on What Could Go Wrong? App to help parents find childcare on demand 5 months ago:
Mh, perhaps there can be a partial “Lemmy contrarian” side to the story, probably because we are used for stuff in private companies to become monopolies and ruin the availability of good service in general, out of greedy dividend-focused choices monopolies do
- Comment on What Could Go Wrong? App to help parents find childcare on demand 5 months ago:
I guess the question is if that’s the correct way to do or if we’d prefer public investments on childcare
Like, are the people in June Care background checked? You know to avoid bad service before some parent has a terrible experience

Not to mention that currency from a specific country is valuable if others are interested in investing there or in their products
As less and less governments and banks want to invest in the US, they lose interest in selling products in dollars, since the US doesn’t produce much anymore, just services
So they create currency in absolute value, but in terms of real buying power they are dependent on the opinions of the rest of the world
