I used to feel more suicidal. Nowadays I think if I was feeling like I truly wanted to do that, I would want to take an oligarch with me
Not trying to simp. Just saying you and I don’t know what’s really going on over there because of how our dear leaders control all the information that comes out.
Cowbee is mostly correct so I’m not going to address everything but there are 2 pieces I want to respond to.
Greed is rewarded in every economy.
That doesn’t seem to be true. Like an economy that doesn’t funnel money into individuals. Or even moneyless economies like Library or Gift. (Though moneyless economies imply we’re achieving actual communism, going beyond socialism)
No, socialist systems like free housing, healthcare, education can exist alongside capitalism. Worker owned systems like cooperatives still operate in a market.
Are you talking about free housing (etc) programs being managed as a cooperative, alongside a commodities market of cooperatives? If yes, that’s not capitalism, that’s socialism. If no, then you must be talking about a welfare state like what’s in Scandinavia, which isn’t socialist.
Kind of relevant to both points, there are a few different schools of socialism so you could see if any make more sense to you.
First, don’t point your finger at capitalism as the problem.
You already lost me
Second, acknowledge & understand greed and how it is inherent in all human nature.
I would rather acknowledge and encourage humans inherent nature to cooperate and grow together.
Third, build systems that minimize the damage done by individual or corporate greed.
Like building an economy that doesn’t inherently reward greed? I wonder what that would look like.
Check against consolidation, monopolization, and short term Wall St like thinking of endless growth.
These things exist because of capitalism
Four, make sure socialist programs exist to support everyone
That’s social welfare. Being socialist means the workers own the means of production
capitalism is not the only way to live, it’s optional
It’s so easy to live in the USA and just not do capitalism /s
the European nations seem to be doing things quite alright
Do you understand that their wealth was pillaged from the global south?
Can you give me a description of what makes socialism bad solely based on how it works (not referencing any country who may have attempted it)?
I can’t look at NK because the world capitalist economy isolated them, so I’m not going to argue about their material conditions. I don’t think anyone is immune to greed, but I think having a system that rewards greed is going to turn it from an aberration to an epidemic.
To your first point, let’s pretend you’re right and look at it in the abstract. What is to be done? Do you want to kill greed? How would you do that?
Capitalism rewards greed, thus perpetuating it and entrenching it. So capitalism is the root of our greed epidemic
Can you take a picture of something that would show you’re in NK that has no duplicate on the internet?
From the first article.
For the human writing process, we looked at humans’ total annual carbon footprints, and then took a subset of that annual footprint based on how much time they spent writing.
Which seems like a silly method of comparing emissions, given that the human doesn’t exist for the purpose of creating images. The carbon footprint of the human is still present whether or not they are generating art. For an AI, the emissions are an addition to global carbon footprint.
For the final point, a random social media post isn’t a profit seeing endeavor, which is why it isn’t expected to pay for any images it uses. The normal accepted practice is to just give credit to the source. The same is not true for news articles, which does care about there being a watermark and is expected to pay for image use. Unless of course people start accepting the normal use of ai images in which case disrupts a whole industry to provide worse art.
It didn’t need to have a picture
Could’ve been a stock photo or other image and no one would’ve cared about a watermark
A waste of resources that harms the planet (the planet that you’re trying to garden on)
Adds nothing of value to the discussion
Normalizes the use of technology that does in fact steal jobs from people who would be better than the technology
Down voted for ai picture
Is Jesus 4 feet tall?
No, it’s not wrong. But you’re not allowed to take truly replenishing time off in this capitalist system. It’s not just unfair, it’s unsustainable and it’s on the way to collapsing. Hopefully we can create a better system in the rubble. Until then, don’t let it break you.
If you’re in the states, new cars are legally required to have a screen for the back up camera.
I don’t think it really answers your question. But I have been blocking every AI comm that comes up on my feed. Except for c/fuckai
The other commenter is correct, I think you’d prefer a gift economy
Library economy with council democracy
And the media I referenced got it from the Nazis and ran with because they either agreed with their conclusions or appreciated the method of coercion?
I apparently live in a red state but my workplace (in state) is green
It’s already there, blue is the women
