@AmyZenunim except the people who would prefer Threads over fediverse instances to contact the rest of the fediverse are already not here. Them joining via threads and leaving via threads will make no difference.

@coolboymew at this point no mortal can possibly think up an isekai scenario dumber than those that already exist.

@thor @Phil I'm not, people who are incapable of working in a way that can't be fixed should be supported, and those that can be helped and returned to the workforce should get that help instead of being thrown out to the curb. "Socialism" is when that goes to the extreme, with people getting the same rewards no matter if they work hard, hardly work, or not at all, which promotes the latter and results in a quick degeneration of the system.

We've had a proverb in the socialist times in Poland, "czy się stoi czy się leży dwa tysiące się należy" meaning "whether you stand or lie down, you're owed 2k", as that was the common practice – why work if the gov guarantees you a place to pretend to work and get rewarded as well as those who work hard?

With every decade of that system the proportion of those working efficiently to those not bothering decreased because of course it did, with a direct incentive to slack off and reap unjust rewards. Cultures adapt and ours adapted so that people choosing being lazy made fun of those working hard as suckers. The gov tried to fix it via propaganda, which was so obviously dumb that the only people that could possibly listen instead of making fun of it were and still are idealistic commies that really want to believe in the system working even when it so obviously doesn't, like our @moffintosh.

@Phil @thor the voluntary part is both important and cool! You can have mini-socialism inside capitalism but you can't have mini-capitalism inside socialism. It's probably the only form of "socialism" that's not severely harmful, precisely because of being voluntary. They also work much better than actual socialist states because they can still ensure everyone not working fairly is kicked out, which is something a state can't do, they either let people not work and degenerate, put everyone in jails, or both.

Though of course co-ops are usually less efficient than "normal" companies, the ones in Poland are mostly barely staying competitive.

@coolboymew looks like they wanted to show off their high FOV renders and their ability to cell shade / interpolate on them. That's at least what it seems like to me, just showing off an effect. Doesn't look drawn, looks rendered, gives me early 3D fan animation vibes.

@freemo don't forget the rare cases where they seem to agree and therefore are the best science and proof that all those beliefs are valid.

@thor maybe it's particularly good at creating updrafts

@darek67 tu już są społeczności. Ta planeta nie jest nowa, jest zamieszkana i traktowanie jej jako czegoś do skolonizowania może być średnio odebrane przez obecnych mieszkańców, szczególnie że mają oni już swoją kulturę dzięki której jest tu mniej zawiści, podłości i społecznej patologii.
