I am aware, and tagged me to keep me in thr comversation, so here i am.

And yea he owns twitter, im not not sure what you are suggesting we are powerless to stop? Like twitter from existing? Him from posting? What ia it in an ideal world you want to stop specifically? Seems as you pointed out most of that is stopped by just not using twitter or blocking him on twitter. It seems far from powerless, nor do we need to block everything he owns. Just dont engage in the part you dont want to, problem solved. You can block himnon twitter and never ha e to hear him while still.buying a tesla.

Ideologically pire governments do not and can not exists. All principles exist withi a network of nuanced ideas where some may be more dominante than others but jonone idea can or doea exist in isolation.

Juat as there is nonpurely capitalist coubtry there will never and can never be a ourely communist country.

Ao yea i agree, when we say communist what we mean is "communisn is a dominante, perhaps even central, ideology"

> Concentration of wealth has more to do with the autocratic mechanisms allowed to exist in government than it does the economic landscape of the society.

Right that was exactly my point, thank you.

@WmShakesp3are

What action do you specifically wish to stop that you feel we are powerless to stop?

TIL Wild Rice is not related to the white rice we eat. I always though it was the same plant just with the husk on.

The bastard who attacked the children's hospital.

⚡️ Ukraine identifies Russian general suspected of ordering strike on Kyiv children's hospital.

Ukrainian authorities on Sept. 10 announced war crime charges in absentia against Russian Lieutenant General Sergey Kobylash over a deadly strike against the Ohkmadyt children's hospital in Kyiv two months ago.

@dielan I feel like this is what the PS5 should be... never going to waste money on the first gen ps system again, gotta wait for the pro next time.

@dsilverz

It is wonderful to have you here, thanks for the detailed intro. Reach out anytime if you want to chat.

@jonoleth Nope, I think I'd know what I said and thought. Never once did I think that.

@jonoleth I could have just as easily picked a more modern country. Stalin was just a better documented example than say north korea.

@jonoleth You are right generally people rarely mean what they say. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt however and if you say your issue is with capitalism rather than the world in general i will believe that is what you meant.

@realcaseyrollins

Ita politics, everyone isnlyong all the time and people dont care about the truth in the least.

All people hear ia trumpns screaming about people eating cats. Trump soubding like a raving lunatic while harria just soubded like a politition.

Man as much as i hate Harris i gotta admit Trump is just handing it over to Harris. He was literally a laughing stock at the debate.

The company I am CTO at is hiring for experts. IF there are any out there looking for a job (100% remote doesnt matter where you are), let me know!

@peter_ellis @GrimmReality

Yea half of what you said, the part i didnt comment on, i largely agree with though also find kt the least interesting part kf what to said.

@AmyPetty

Coolmso you agree with what i said and it was never in question. Glad we can have an amicle conversation that wasnt remotely toxic then. Hope to see you around.

@AmyPetty

Its not about defending capitaliam, though i absokutely would defend free market teade. Ita about the absursity of thinking billionairs is a symptom.exclusive to capitalism whennit very obviously is not limited to capitalism.
