  • I want to nationalize seashores. It’s unfair rich people privatized entire coastline.

    Make them rentable. I want a private piece of seashore for vacation. But nobody should be able to own it for life.

    Same with natural resources. WTF are they owned by corpos? Anything mined and drilled should be owned by all citizens

    as sad as it is, that failed miserably in the soviet union. The soviets initially had way better computer but because all industry was publicly owned noone competed and noone bought computers which is why they fell behind the US.

    There is a sensible middle ground that allows for the pressure-driven innovation of capitalism without its extreme and unfair exploitation. We just have to find it.











  • He’s talking about a different Thing.

    Trump appointed a Person that was heavily anti-big-tech. The Proton CEO congratulated him on this Choice, saying something along the Lines, I’m paraphrasing here, “this anti-big-tech guy is a big Win for the simple Man. 10 years ago, the Democrats were the ones who would have been the ones for the simple Man. now it is the Republicans. Congrats on your good Choice”.

    This comment was meant purely in the Context of this Appointment and not as an Endorsement of the wider Trump Government or its Actions but has been misinterpreted as such by a lot of People.

    This is probably what the OP meant.

    I’m not sure. That could actually be a nice Idea.

    Make the audience sympathise with the Nazi, maybe even identify with him. Then show his gruesome actions. All while having him remain being a wonderful father/brother/whatever.

    This stark contrast, this shock might help them realize that everyone, even them, are prone to falling for fascism and cause them to think about their relationship with this most gruesome of ideologies. It might show them that Nazism doesn’t come from the outside and occupies the country but that instead it comes from the inside, form ourselves, our neighbours and our family members, whom we never would think it possible of.

    … you do realize Nazis were humans, right?

    This is literally one of the most important lessons from Nazism. That anyone, any normal human, loving father, mother, son, can become a monster if the circumstances are right.

    God, no wonder fascism is on the rise again if the lessons of it were forgotten.
