My comment probably included a clause in it somewhere. ‘If’ ‘but’ ‘except’ ‘sometimes’ ‘when’. None of these are difficult words. If you cannot read them, you’re a fucking idiot and your opinion is just noise pollution.
What do you want from your government?
Your government won’t do it.
Do it your fucking self. I dunno. You want better schools? Start one, improve the ones that exist, whatever. You want safer streets? Start pouring concrete and slashing tires. You want asafe injection site?
Very newsom. He’s so shit I can’t even watch the star trek cartoon.
Good. Enshittification of the panopticon goggles.
Yes, and you should avoid it at all costs.
The entire rest of that section goes so much harder and is so much gayer.
The idea of making the behaviors you want easier, the outcomes you want more likely to happen, just does not occur. Like, if you want less reckless driving, make it less necessary or convenient to drive.
You realize punishment is harm, right?
You understand nothing
I’m really not interested in your extremely remedial analysis. I am aware of the various philosophies of law. The idea of making the outcome you want easier just does not occur.
It’s all about proximal causes and assigning ultimate responsibility to a person you assume must be evil and not helping them to do what you want even when its something that’s usually a function of recklessness irresponsibility or incompetence but just hurting people until the world is better.
The violently incurious crescendo of dunning-kruger that you would take out on others is absolutely disgusting. Everything you’ve said here is violently stupid, literally violently. Never stop posting. Not for a moment.
Beat it enough, and it will do what we want!
Why can’t they be… taught? To clean themselves?
Wait, what? Oh no! I think they’re letting him be really important! How sure are you? Are you confident enough to get this out to the world?
‘Prevent crime’
What is crime? How does it relate to undesirable outcomes? Why do you think laws, just threatening people and public punishment and awfulnes, are a good tool for anything you want?
Not even going to start on the ‘eugenics’. You get that gattaca was not a “we should do this!” Movie, right? Jesus buckets of frothy diarrhea Christ are you from fucking San Francisco or some shit?
‘Compensated’.
What if their work was its own reward? Like if you want a smart grid, you build one, or check in with the people building one and ask how to help, and if private property is abolished, you just build shit for everybody, or everybody it’s convenient to build for? So you can’t really hoard shit. You can only inspire and build for everyone?
Or if you want more houses because you’re sick of sleeping outside or hate the streets being full of tents or want your dumbass 23 year old to move out finally please, you go learn about construction, or hook up with your local construction club/crew? If nobody owns stuff that isn’t meaningfully personally theirs, it gets much easier to do shit.
The lady who runs the best construction crew and her friend who designs the most beautiful houses still get prestige for being standouts, they still get to feel awesome, just like the guy who throws those amazing parties, but there’s not this huge bundled abstraction layer of bullshit.
Its not like people want to do nothing, unless they’re totally crushed by capitalism. Maybe the ways we do things change. We build more safely (or way less safely, hell yeah! Watch this!), or work shorter hours, or there’s an air separated musicians cubicle in operating rooms for live dramatizations, it whatever sensible cool or insane shit we decide to do. You can’t really argue we would make worse decisions than the ones currently governing us.
You go through a lot of insane implausible contrivances to keep this ‘money’ system you admit has basically never not been extremely fucked up.
Generally, the lower paid the work, the more women you find doing it :-/
hands across the world
It’s not ideal. I’m starting to think this ‘fascism’ stuff might have issues.
Arguable, but the point about sensible choice of tools and sharkweek’s comment about nonsense blade length still stand.
Learn to garden better?
So women can be Operators and construction workers and mathmeticians and that’s like ‘well obviously’ but the idea of a woman being a politician is management is just, like, ‘wait, no, do you not see she’s the wrong gender?’ That would be a depressingly refreshing inversion.
Less violence is cool. I like less violence.
Its not covered, and its slowed down; the rapid response networks aren’t what I’d like them to be, but they’re not completely useless.
But there are theatrical sweeps every so often, and law of large numbers. Plus all police are ice. Its in the name, and when LAPD/SD kidnaps someone for walking while brown or DUI for sleeping it off in the back seat of their car with the keys in the trunk or whatever, and then hands them over to ice because chatgpt says they look like someone who was at a protest obce or their name was super extra ‘foreign’ or whatever.
You get that ‘the giver’ is a dystopia, right? Of fucking course you don’t.
