It’s illegal migrants cleansing party. Never saw anything about ethnic in their claims

handing social welfare to poor and disabled, etc

The fact that you implement some policies that are socialist in nature, doesn’t mean that whole system you’re running is socialism. Especially considering that all these states run capitalistic economies at their core

Well, woudn’t be the first time words get new meaning due to events in history.

Thing is, socialism as a system has surprisingly almost no strict definition. The best I’ve ever found is “Democratization of access to means of production” or “State control of means of production”

By these definitions Polish socialism with its centrally planed economy was an actual socialism.

Because it appeals to misguided people who have no idea what shit show it was.

Seriously, in Polish Sejm there’s currently no party with “Socialism” in the name. That brand doesn’t sell here

In reality the model you described earlier runs in majority of European countries - state run health care + state run or at least state controlled critical infrastructure + some welfare for poor - all of this financed by taxes collected from capitalist economy.

By all possible definitions it’s a welfare state

Most of civilized world outside of US works like that.

You seem to confuse free education and healthcare, government control of essential resources (water, electricity) and government taking case of the poor and disabled to some authoritarian communist shitshow behind the iron curtain.

You’re mistaking socialism for welfare state. Socialism IS the authoritarian shitshow behind iron curtain

Who the fuck cares. Elon, is average moron playing average game. If this was something important, I could understand, but this is nothing more than attention whoring.

The Worst Person You Know

Asmon isn’t even close to to the top of the worst people I know. What even is that title?

Yeah, my parents and grandparents lived through socialism in Poland. Heard enough from them to not have any delusions about it.

Socialism, communism, fascism, nazism - it’s all the same shit, the only difference is just the idological mumbo-jumbo on the surface level

Gasoline, and if that doesn’t work - Acetone

/b/ has no moderation other than removal of child abuse and other illegal stuff. There are no rules on that board

And lets be honest, when people say 4chan, they mean either /b/ or /pol/

I think that might be the reason why lemmy.world admin forced loose moderation policy on everyone recently.

I’ve seen what unmoderated platforms look like

They look like 4chan

“you have freedom to agree with us” - communists

Necktie - it fits the hat

announced content moderation changes that will allow users to say that LGBTQ+ people have “mental illness,”

Someone gets triggered by free speech here.

Anyway, wind blows the other way now. Zuck doesn’t want to piss against it

Talk about misinformation: Wired purposefully didn’t cite actual statement which was: “The biggest success after that terrible era in our history was to label Adolf Hitler as right and conservative. He was exactly the opposite. He wasn’t a conservative. He wasn’t a libertarian. He was a communist socialist guy,”

With the context it reads more like communist-like person, not literal communist.

But the context be damned, we hate Elon and Wired confirms our bias so we eat misinformation like it’s a gospel written by God himself

You didn’t answer the question. I wasn’t asking whether Musk is right or wrong. I asked if you would complain if he was supporting far-left

So if it was far-left it would be ok?

emergency stop do just that on his phone…

Bruh

So where’s the big red button called, “emergency stop”?

Renewables are an invisible revolution that everyone seems to be ignoring. I don’t know why, but if you look at the numbers, solar alone grows at staggering rate of ~20-25% EACH YEAR. This is a massive, exponential growth that won’t slow down until some limiting factor kicks in (either resource availability or price of electricity falls down)

Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_of_photovoltaics

This is GLOBAL. This has nothing to do with ecology, I’ve run some rough estimations few years ago - solar is CHEAPER than fossil even in temperate climate. Similar story with the wind power - well managed renewable power plants print money, it’s a good business.

That said, this is about electricity production, fossil fuels are still unmached for transportation and this isn’t going to change any time soon
