In volume 1 he says capitalist society had to force capitalists in general to stop killing the working class before it could reproduce itself. Cites places where average mortality was 17.

The only freedom capitalist relations grant is be exploiter or exploited.

Utopian comes from Engels’ book “Socialism, Utopian and Scientific”. The worker class must be in charge or any gains can

@Radical_EgoCom @neptune22222 @starran @Rob100@sakurajima.moe Dear old Karl said very little about this imaginary regulated capitalism earlier in this thread.

Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains.

From each according to his ability, to each according to their needs.

Philosophers have only interpreted the world, the point, however is to change it.

Their problem with protestors is not that they "disturb the peace". It's that they disturb the violence.

USC went from cancelling their valedictorian’s commencement speech on a made up claim of safety, to canceling all commencement speakers, to canceling commencement altogether—all to prevent the student USC educated on genocide studies from applying her USC education at USC.😑

What a complete failure in leadership.

Shamelessly pinched from the World Bollard Association ™️

Think Asimov at his most boring when Hari Sheldon is explaining things.

Ah well.

I really enjoyed 3 Body Problem on Netflix

Remembered I'd read the first volume on Kindle unlimited ages ago but bought the trilogy

The second book is so hard to read. Full of people making speeches explaining things, like the SF written in the 1950s.

Really interesting characters with fascinating internal lives, but those speeches, just not necessary.

Needed a really good edit, but maybe it works in the original literary tradition.

Sticking with it because I want to know what happens.

Email asking for participants in a study of disabled people.

All the information in an attached JPG flyer.

With no text alternative. 😵

@zimpenfish I installed it to make cutting and pasting from some instructions easier and it kept telling me it didn’t like the commands and I was root. Lost the will to live.
