Copyparty is not that known I guess.

I love baking biscuits but is a good gateway to moving to baking bread… and space cake.

Counter: Bars should have taxes lifted on the first round of beverages purchased in bars. And increased taxes for alcohol purchased in shops. And maximum music dB enforced.

In the current time of AI, music by bands should be required.

Social drinking should be promoted to counter loneliness.

When you colour 80% of all bike lanes orange the defence that a driver didn’t know it was a bike lane becomes moot.

I’m not talking about trust, I mean two enclosed single bicycle lanes that merge at a bicycle crossing before entering an enclosed 2 way bicycle lane.

The dutch solved this by colouring the bike lane orange. Yes occasionally we add bollards but the entrances to 2 lanes often end/start in protected intersections

Nice try Peter Thiel you ain’t getting my birth year that easily.

I personally have found it to be dangerous to talk about socialism without knowing if the person is a staunch ML or can converse about their critics.

Like wise if the ownership of the socialism definition and revisionism like Democratic Socialism, Anarchic Socialism is associated or excluded.

Stepping into socialist theory it seemed like Manifesto of the Communist Party was the one and only way, joining lemmy.ml seemed to reaffirm that but then one listens to Socialists from a different media thier ideas are far less strict. I’m assuming they’ve read other books and pamphlets by other people.

No no I’m talking about real unions like the German Auto Industry union IG Metall

Trump, this is how you do tariffs properly.

1. You create an economic block that already know how to produce the product
2. you cut out outside competition of said product
3. worker unions happy, company ceo’s happy

This is news to me that the meat industry isn’t already owned by billionaires.

Classic Stazi

Thanks yes this seems to be a mistake, reading more into history I’ve even found that the push for better working conditions has come from elected social democrats and political union parties (1906 in the Netherlands) long before the Russian revolution.

Sorry I should have used effectively, being ideological about democratic centralism is nice until you find yourself organising a workers demonstration against one.

Every single piece of information Marx Lenin Mao Stalin points to: the replacement of power of any method a worker has, in a capitalist democracy and migrate it after the revolution to a state held apparatus above which the flawed democratic-centralism takes grasp to hold absolute power. At which point strengthening a secret police is all that’s needed to let fascism in from the back door. At least Mussolini stated his intentions from the beginning.

Classic Marxist Leninist.

workers ownership of the means of production

Great lets try that out; how much ownership do you think a worker has over the means of production, without the ability to choose a union not pre-appointed by the state?

Communism (not DemSoc) is an economic system where a government essentially owns the population ruled by an autocrat, under the veil of a single union. The ML way of democratic centralism completely fails when the opposition is blocked from voting which assures total enforced hegemony.

Independent unions are illegal in China with only the All-China Federation of Trade Unions(ACFTU) permitted by the Chinese state and the Chinese Communist Party to operate.

This doesn’t sound like a good idea.

I take it you haven’t seen my red rose profile picture 😉

But no not as literature, I thought I’d get the foundation of Marx but took a detour on Mao do you have any recommendations?
