No, you are not.

You have not been targeted if you were not also targeted under Trump. You are not a victim.

No, you haven’t.

The truly unpopular opinion is the one you’re pretending is popular, people aren’t advocating for immediate replacement without building up green energy and replacing it entirely.

Growth and stability of necessities aren’t mutually required.

You can have controlled or even negative growth and plenty of food and necessities.

Imagine it this way: what if we made it completely illegal to make party favors and other single-use items with no benefit? Growth would lower, but food production isn’t hurt in the slightest, and other jobs can exist.

Yep, Marx predicted this actually. A huge portion of Marx’s literature is even more relevant today than ever before.

The best product should not be what’s most popular in Capitalism, what’s profitable to produce is what’s most profitable. With tons of competition, you just have competing levels of automation, corner cutting, and exploitation.

Competition and markets in general are the cause of enshittification.

Competition doesn’t lead to innovation in improving people’s lives, but company profits. See: enshittification.

As much as I can without harming those who depend on me.

Technically, Lemmy itself is a “radical left” platform. That was its purpose in creation.

To be fair, choosing Lemmy over Reddit is absolutely a political choice, hence people here are going to be more politically-minded.

Just finished Signalis, got the “Promise” ending. Feel pretty empty after that, it’s such a good game and is further proof that games don’t have to have incredible graphical fidelity or huge teams to be fantastic and look great.

He made an account 20 minutes ago just to post inflammatory, hyper-conservative reactionary comments

He made an account 20 minutes ago just to post inflammatory, reactionary comments from a hyper-conservative angle, lmao.

Urbanization and multi-use buildings, change office buildings to residential buildings and enact working from home more.

High speed rail.

Pretty simple to sum it up as collectivization of industry, or as abolition of Private Property in favor of collective ownership of the Means of Production.

Anything else, such as a rejection of hierarchy or a focus on democratization of production, is an abstraction and benefit of the previous statements.

Collectivization of industry, ie a rejection of Private Property. FOSS is leftist as it rejects individually owned IP and the profit motive.

Socialism, Anarchism, Communism, etc. are examples of leftist ideologies.

If you want a true ELI5, instead of one dude owning the factory and therefore everything the Workers create in it, imagine the Workers owning the factory and democratically deciding how to allocate profits and whether or not to elect a manager to help facilitate this.

Spoken like someone who has never been targeted based on the political climate, and hasn’t cared for anyone who has.

Same reason Linux is popular on Lemmy. Lemmy is essentially an explicitly leftist community that appeals to people nerdy and techy enough to leave Reddit and join a smaller platform. Linux is a FOSS, ie leftist techy OS. Star Trek is leftist Sci-Fi.

Nerds, tech, and leftism all congregate on Lemmy.

And yet the political commentary displayed in the series is blatantly leftist in nature, and was written in the context of modern Capitalism.

Just like showing a dystopian hyper-Capitalist cyberpunk future is a commentary on the dangers of modern day Capitalism, showing a more “enlightened” post-scarcity Communist society as a hopeful future is also commentary on modern day society.

Sci-fi is pretty much just political, as it’s all speculative fiction based on different possibilities of modern society abstracted to a future setting.
