  • A citizen of the world; A left leaning, anarcho syndicalist and when I’m feeling moderate, a democratic socialist. People would think the same thing they already think about me: that I’m a person that is fed up with fascist boot lickers on both “sides” of the rapidly rightward shifting Overton window.

  • What would the implications of a US constitutional amendment excluding corporations as persons and the constitutional rights that affords them?

  • As a software engineer that delights in recklessly refactoring entire systems at once I think this is an instance where making small targeted changes would be better for everyone.

    As a functional programmer that delights in recklessly refactoring entire systems at once, I think this is an instance where our entire government needs to be rewritten with a proper “types” system in place so the compiler will warn us when there are inconsistencies in our laws and we can keep refactoring until we reach totality or soundness. We can isolate the side effects of laws and make sure they only do one thing. Laws can be free monads! 🤪

  • I’m 99.9999999999% sure that far fewer of those accounts are propaganda than you realize but you just don’t want to hear what they’re pushing because it threatens your world view.

  • Do you think the mostly limited range of political views is a strength or a weakness of Lemmy? (For example, in terms of attracting new users.)

  • “Allergic to analogies” should be your username. I’m not reading that insipid wall of text when the first sentence misunderstands my very clear analogy. Of course no one mentioned banning me. Try to follow along.

  • I’ve run into you a few times. Let me save us both some time with the bullshit lesser of two evils finger wagging, neolib.

    Kamala in no way, shape, or form supported any kind of peace in Palestine. So I have no idea what you’re pretending about.

  • My list was preconceived in a comment I made a while back so you caught me there. But as I went back through the list , 80% of what I was proposing would instantly make the rest of the world a better place because the US is basically the villain of the world.

    The Jon Bolton execution alone would inspire parades across the Middle East.

  • Any non-corrupt politician would be unstoppable if they honestly attempted to strive for at least a few of these:

    • election reform
    • single payer
    • abolish private medical insurance and fold those companies into a 100% taxpayer funded (Single Payer) national healthcare system much like they have in Canada and South Korea. (Anywhere else doesn’t have true Single Payer.)
    • repeal Citizens United
    • bring back Glass Steagall
    • anti-genocide/ cutting off the infinite money tap that the AIPAC/IDF command
    • prosecute Israel (and the politicians that enabled them in the US should also be tried in front of The Hague) for crimes against humanity
    • prosecute George W. Bush and company for the Iraq war. Imprison them for the rest of their lives.
    • publicly execute Jon Bolton in the most brutal way possible using weapons from arms manufacturers that he openly works for 😅
    • student loan reform (without bullshit means testing)
    • reparations
    • stop spying on US citizens and dissolve the CIA/NSA/FBI’s conflict of interest with ALL tech companies in the US. Facebook is a DIRECT feed to the NSA and law enforcement and that needs to stop not be ramped up under the guise of “protecting us from terrorism” like Kamala asserts and ends up being used solely to go after whistle blowers and protesters.
    • break up the conglomerate farms that our government actively encourages to put poison in our food that they then feed to only poor children in our schools while the rich kids get organic diets.
    • reform the FDA and USDA (compare the list of banned chemicals in the EU to here and tell me that someone isn’t greasing someone’s palms in exchange for POISONING us with roundup, etc)
    • police DEmilitarization
    • stop writing blank checks to the military industrial complex under the guise of “helping”, sending vast sums of money that would EASILY pay for Single Payer to be burned in futile proxy wars with Russia
    • force car companies to make self driving car technology open source and introduce rigorous standards and best practices for this software that is responsible for human lives
    • break up the airline industry
    • break up the banking industry
    • audit the Fed
    • disallow Black Rock and other conglomerates from owning homes
    • disallow real estate purchases from non US citizens
    • disallow real estate price fixing and penalize the companies that did it
    • make college free for EVERYONE and raise taxes on the rich to pay for it
    • force NVidia to open source CUDA/ZLUDA
    • decriminalize marijuana
    • fund a high speed rail system in the US
    • reform the Supreme Court and bring Clarence Thomas up on treason charges under the penalty of death
    • immigrants no longer in cages (rather than ramping up putting immigrants in cages and just marketing it differently)
    • end the embargo on Cuba
    • penalize countries and corporations financially for pollution. Make it prohibitively expensive for Temu, Amazon, SHEIN, and Alibaba to ship their goods over oceans on the worst polluting internal combustion engines on earth: container ships. In reality, it was our Clintonite, globalist Democrats (the good guys!) that actively encouraged corporations to manufacture overseas.
    • reward other countries and corporations financially for green policies
    • dissolve the two party system and bring the DNC and GOP up on treason charges
    • give Edward Snowden immunity for his “crimes” and protect him as a whistle blower
    • fund the fediverse and other decentralized technologies that have a direct positive effect on democracy
    • socialize and break up Amazon into twenty companies
    • open source and decentralize Twitter for the crime of election interference
    • force Amazon, Google, Alphabet, OpenAI, Meta, and Apple to open source at least a large chunk of their tech stacks
    • force pharmaceutical industry to open source their tax-payer funded research and products that were created using government funding
    • socialize Google (for the crime of election interference and others)
    • fund RISC-V chip technologies instead of closed source technologies to bring chip manufacturing back to the US
    • socialize Meta (for the crime of election interference and other crimes)
