    I feel like the first example in your comment implies a different intonation than it’s equivalent in PooloverNathan’s comment. Also I feel the need to admit that I first read ¿)Nathan’s(? username as “Pool-over” as in “pull over”…

    I find a lot of people arguing that one shouldn’t vote because although easy, it is the least effective form of political engagement.

    I’d argue that you should vote because it is the easiest form of political engagment and, if possible considering your material conditions, you should also try to participate in other forms of engagement.

    Yep, I think that’s uncontroversial…










  • what many people dont understand is that foreign policy isn’t about morals, it’s about power. capitalism too isn’t about capital, its about power. that’s why the capitalist class’ interests often aligns with interests of fascists. when money stops securing power, the capitalists will try to maintain it by any means necessary


  • I mean, sure… but it’s hard to build specialized medical facilities for people who need them in every rural area they decide to live, right? and it’s basically impossible to keep them running when there’s only a few people that will need them in that area, no? at some point, the places they can choose to live will be heavily informed by the disabilities they may or may not have.

    eventually, you will probably end up with highly concentrated areas of people who have similar disabilities that can be treated in that area (as well as their loved ones, medics/physicians, people who provide food, transportation, etc…).

    I don’t want to come across as against UBI, I think it’s a very interesting first approach. but I also definitely don’t believe it’s a solution by any , you see…
