News like this gets out and it should just be automatic unionization. Idk why people are such pushovers.

lol that’s great. I had to write an auto clicker to do it.

And I was agreeing with you

My one other media type is “the cloud”.

I use hard drives, I can’t imagine trying to put something on a disk or something.

One thing I do recommend, I keep one unencrypted hard drive copy in the safest most hidden part of my house. This is in case encryption software disappears, or I just forget my encryption keys or something.

Other than that, one encrypted copy of files in a thumb drive in my wallet (selected files, not everything). One in my car. One in my firesafe. Then daily cloud backup.

Imagine eliminating all philosophical figures that were eugenicists. Wed have to start over.

No ghandi didn’t fuck kids. It’s weirder than that, but he wasn’t a criminal.

Usually you plug/unplug sata when it’s off. But I don’t think that should happen. Take it to a pc repair shop. You might have blown a fuse.

That the worst thing the left could do for itself, for its standing in the American population, especially in the present era, is to ridiculously focus on a moral crusade against meat. It’s another culture war topic that divides the working class.

People will stop eating meat when they can’t get it anymore, in which case nothing could lead to revolution faster, or when it grows in vats, no other reason.

lol that’s what they have always said https://youtu.be/0ens0WjAyOc

I mean you’re the one who can’t imagine a person on the left not being vegan. Who can’t imagine more than two kinds of people in this conversation? Are you going to form a workers movement with those very same working conservatives you are upset with by telling them about how their cooperation in a union benefits themselves and everyone, or about a moral crusade about the animals?

Like sure we gotta cut down on animal products for environmental reasons, but that’s not veganism, that’s practical environmentalism. There’s no moral argument there. But to be frank, I and most other people do not care at all about the morality of eating animals, and will not be convinced to care, ever. An economy without animal products is not something most people ever aspire to obtain.

Lol, I’ll add that to my list of things I need to be on the “left.”

How you going to lead the revolution without guns and protein? Fuck workers interests and owning the means of production, we should be concerned about their diets!

Capitalists will sell you meat if you want meat and vegetables if you want vegetables, one is certainly more green, but not more left.

The worst thing the left could do is go after people’s meat.

Set environmental targets and cruelty laws, but get out of here with associating the left with veganism.

I assume he’s asking “why can’t steam be considered a monopolistic platform”

Exactly.

Is it? Pretty much every philosopher thought so, even the federalists, which is why they made a republic. And it’s always been a bourgeois republic. Democracy pure is a bunch of idiots listening to social media influencers picking good talkers at the margin of 1% every 4 years. It’s always been theater. It’s manufactured consent.

I mean that’s your model. As far as it’s absolute, it’s wrong. There are good laws that don’t protect mere property: murder, rape, assault, etc. And we don’t want vigilante justice dealing with these things. Basically I can admit laws can be unjust, but you can’t admit laws can be just. In such a case, you need to meet your burden of proof.

lol what about all the lone actors who didn’t succeed. Worldwide. Don’t just cherry pick the losses. And those guys did not bioweapon the earth.

Sure laws can be bad /c/im14andthisisdeep. Now you do it! Can laws be good?

What you’re advocating for is not trying, because freedom is more important than practical safety.

Here’s your guide: hit your cellphone and laptop with a hammer until it’s a fine paste. Then dump it randomly into 3-4 different trashcans. Drive a beater.

They are already possible so we have massive networks of laws and security to try and detect and stop them. That security imposes its will by force onto the perpetuator. Thats not anarchism

Your second paragraph just proves you don’t understand the nature of power. Why did Russia Cuba and NK need nukes? Because people without nukes are weak to their enemies. So until the anarchist territory is global, it needs to participate in global geopolitics, in which nukes are actually one of your primary bargaining chips.

Otherwise you’re just a piece of land with no government, and most historical invasions take place when land becomes an easy conquest. Because land is materially useful.

The communists had to be militarily STRONG to survive and continue the revolution. And that’s why they tended to kill their anarchist neighbors instead of the other way around. They did power better.

No war ever fought was fought for or benefited the working class. It was always to benefit someone else. Even when the socialists did it, they did it as a vanguard party, and that vanguard ultimately did it to benefit themselves. Sometimes they have the ancillary benefit of redeeming some horror in our past, like slavery, but people are naive if they think the north went to war with the south to eliminate slavery, or that the Americans won against the British without French help, who mostly had victory against the British on their mind, not American independence.

Instead, society changes when material conditions change. It rarely changes through ideologically motivated struggle. It changes overnight because someone invented the lightbulb, discovered a new continent, or a new farming technique, etc. Entire empires have fallen practically overnight because of the switch from peasantry to steam powered industry. Nothing can prevent it, and barely a drop of blood need be spilt, because it’s inevitable.

Trump CANT stop green energy development, because now it’s cheaper than coal. That’s a material condition change. That’s the best kind of resistance you can do.
