It reminds me a little of the old internet. I like how relatively small it feels, and that people post content for the sake of the content, not to promote themselves. I haven’t found my usual corners yet, the ones I used to hang out in on older platforms, but I figure that’s just a matter of time. I’m not super nostalgic for the old internet or anything, but it’s nice to find at least a hint of something human-centered somewhere.
I hope it doesn’t fall apart and that it keeps growing.
I was skeptical when I switched to Linux, but then I ditched Windows on my dual boot for good. It was a hugely positive experience, and it really felt like freedom. I’m hoping this will be the same.
And don’t be mad at me if I act totally clueless here sometimes 'cause all that is new to me.
Yep, but replacing rightauts with leftauths doesn’t accomplish anything - in the end you are under the heel of the boot.
Is an “auth” anyone that supports having a state? Is it not better for the working class to have a state than the capitalist class? These kinds of zingers are common, but they don’t actually say much.
Wouldn’t they become the new dictators, elites, dictating what others should do? The cycle would just go on changing from one master to another with same bullshit. You underestimate how power changes people when they reach it.
Why would it be a problem for the working class to control society? The working class is the mass of the people that creates new value, democratically deciding how to run society and planning production for our own needs is a good thing. I don’t see how “working class controls society” as the same as “elites.”
