I have always believed that the next step in development is to return power to the people by moving to the next stage, which is the transition from a centralized system of government to a decentralized system of government. This is the solution to the world’s problems.

@markhburton @urlyman but in a #capitalist economy that precious green steel is being squandered on #AI data centres, SUVs, armaments and ballrooms, and consequently the rollout of the infrastructure needed to give us a sustainable future is being sabotaged.

A #reminder: #Disney did not reinstate Jimmy Kimmel because they care about the opinions of their viewership or because they are resistant to the US's late-stage #capitalist descent into #fascism. They reinstated him because of the #financial backlash. Don't start seeing Disney as a "good guy" suddenly just because they caved under #profit pressure.

For fuck's sake, I'm BEGGING #liberals to understand that the #capitalist government, run by #capitalists, owning a stake in a #company, is #capitalism, NOT# socialism. It's not socialism if it's not done by a #workers' state for the benefit of the workers.

Like hell, no wonder #liberals hate people to their #left. They honestly think fucking #DonaldTrump, the #billionaire #capitalist, is a #socialist.

Aren't these the people that used to brag in 2016 about how "smart" and "well-educated" they were?

I've got good news, if you're willing to follow my argument.

The toxic #capitalist system we're suffering under depends increasingly on hundreds of millions of us generating attention-grabbing content for the Big Tech platforms. I assume this is true.

In other words, if those millions of (unpaid) content generators were to stop generating attention-grabbing content for Big Tech, at least some of the Big Tech enterprises would be in crisis or even topple. That'd be good, right?

How to get there? Draw attention away from Big Tech platforms to alternative platforms that don't destroy our souls, humanity and the planet. En masse, of course. Generating attention-grabbing content then becomes a revolutionary practice to destroy the current attention economy.

The idea is that if we post and share interesting things only via wholesome networks like Mastodon, the Big Tech platforms will collapse and the toxic attention economy will eventually wither away.

So, what's the good news? It's that posting interesting things on the Fediverse is revolutionary work! And getting comrades to join the movement onto the Fediverse is revolutionary work too!
