politics @lemmy.world•Trump says he doesn't 'give a damn' about gas prices as US making 'fortune'
2·2 days agoAs a far more casual observer, round 1 the cartoon business villain from “the apprentice” promised to use his signature catchphrase on the crooked politicians everyone was already so sick of and round 2 has been a victory lap where perhaps the most crooked ‘politician’ of all time revels in the hypocrisy of gleefully marketing us to the highest bidder, with the full support of his only constituents that actually matter (the corpo scum buying). Remember that supreme court thing where they said corporations were people now? At this point I’m waiting for one where they just come out and say people aren’t anymore. Already kinda went and made speech meaningfully impossible without money

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Optimists of Lemmy, what gives you hope about the future?
1·2 days agoYou’re more than welcome to come pitch in. I feel like it has a lot to do with how someone’s currently handling their burdens. If you’re thriving now, fundamental change is a threat. If you’re struggling, there’s room to see it as salvation. I think it sounds lovely to be warm and have enough to eat, and am quite confident I could find another goal should those suddenly be achieved. Maybe it’s just the grass being greener as usual :p

2·2 days agoCan you see any difference between the “drain the swamp” stuff from round 1 and openly gloating about how profitable the little people’s struggles are?
You’ve gotta make them wonder

1·3 days agoI didn’t mean it as a callout or gotcha, just seemed relevant to the potential appeal of having them met by a machine. I certainly wouldn’t feel lost or directionless in that scenario, there’s so much I want to do but can’t now. Liberation from the chop wood/carry water processes that occupy more time than I’ve got would unlock so much potential

3·3 days agoInteresting, thanks for sharing. Would you say most of your material needs are met now? I’m somewhat behind on mine, and freedom from the constant struggle of not quite meeting them sounds (and is) too good to be true. I’m not against offloading that burden to a machine in principle or out of an attachment to want itself, I’m against it because that machine has been well-proven not to be acting in our best interests or capable of shouldering that burden even if its operators would ever allow it

2·3 days agoOk first off “post scarcity” is never going to happen, we are the resource their system extracts from and it will never give anything back. But if it did somehow, if we built a loving god? That’d be dope as hell. If you genuinely don’t have interests beyond your needs to pursue right now I hope you find some. There’s nothing hedonistic or degenerate (nazi buzzword btw) about passion and engagement. What gives your life meaning beyond meeting those needs as-is?

How do you say “truth social” in Portuguese?
