Oh yeah the gap in surplus value is ridiculous, and continues to get worse. Sorry my comment was meant as a lazy “and you too can have $28B” joke 🤣

Feel free to correct if I’m wrong, but my understanding is basically an attempt at accounting for all civilization-collapsing-level catastrophic event. Maybe not global, but massive-scale
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
In my experience, your first sentence sums it up nicely.
They assume a moral high ground because they’ve adopted a diet that is generally deemed healthier and better for the environment (I don’t always agree with this).
But unless they’re also doing all the things we could all do better (e.g. not buying new, not upgrading the the latest and greatest, not taking 40 minute showers, not eating out every second day), they’re only somewhat less guilty of environmental damage than the average person, they’re taking a generally undeserved “holier than thou” position and then shoving it down your throat. This isn’t everyone, and I don’t really care what you eat, but these are the vegans that get under my skin.

Okay curious question. There’s a legal movement arguing that nature should be protected by law/be considered when undertaking things that might affect it (esp. resource development).
Does anybody with any legal knowledge know if this would create some kind of legal precedent? Obviously it’s not enshrined in written law, but a tree that owns itself (even by mutual agreement) seems to suggest it’s somewhat plausible, and it’s not like laws always make sense lol. Or am I just reading too much into this?

Not a realisticoutcome, but he deserved to have been blood eagled. Real torture/execution or not, fuck Hitler

Yeah I don’t understand why they don’t just own it. You’re a company trying to maximize profits, and tried money grubbing your way to more. Then you got caught and your customers didn’t like it. Admit it, move on to your next appallingly bad idea. Weak lies are the worst

I think there’s an addictive cycle element to it too. A point where it isn’t just validating the decisions you’ve made, but a compulsion to see the number get bigger

I actually find myself wondering lately “what’s so bad about stable (+/- 5%/annum) profits for some stretches of time.” Sure you’re not eating up market share, but a couple million in the pocket every year really isn’t that bad…
I… May not be cut out for capitalism…
