You only speak for yourself.

What can you recommend?1·4 months agoHe’s right to point out that either no alternative is offered or the alternative is just more regulated capitalism with a stronger safety net.
teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•I want to spend a half hour this evening reading an essay that contains ideas I have probably not considered before. What can you recommend?1·4 months agoThere’s never any real discussion of detailed fixes in this kind of complaint—because that might acknowledge we can fix the problem without overthrowing the system. There’s never any argument about how under socialism (or some other alternative economic model) public policy tradeoffs, political failures, or scarcity just wouldn’t exist.

teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Bernie Sanders says defeating oligarchy now most urgent issue111·5 months agoAs someone not from the US (but who has lived/worked/studied in the US), Sanders seems like the only member of the US upper house that is willing to speak honestly and engage in haram speech that goes against local provincial orthodoxy.

Here, let me get into the mood:
The only thing we need to do is make Bernie president, then we’ll never have to think about politics ever again!
teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Bernie Sanders says defeating oligarchy now most urgent issue125·5 months agoDid you read the part where 25 Democratic Senators have higher lifetime ratings than him?
Anyway, the contention here is the stupid notion that the only “good” US Senator is Bernie.
teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Bernie Sanders says defeating oligarchy now most urgent issue224·5 months agoYeah, the “only Bernie loves us” bullshit.
Here are ratings from the AFL-CIO, America’s union federation, where you can find the current year and lifetime ratings of all US Senators.
Bernie has a 98%.
Twenty five Senate Democrats have higher pro-union ratings than him.

Thanks Bernie.
Before I graduated I was encouraged to apply for a job that required a four year degree.
Don’t worry about it - we know you, they said.
When I submitted my application online it was automatically rejected because the application program correctly flagged that I didn’t meet the requirement of having a four year degree.

I hear grass crying out to be touched. Trees crying out to be seen. Plants crying out to be smelled. A sun, desperate to touch skin.
