Dippy,

People with hope do more to fix things

You don't have to use gyroelongation (lemmy.ml)

An image of an icosahedron formed by three mutually perpendicular golden ratio rectangles sits in front of That Feel Guy. The caption text says “They...

Dippy,

Regardless of your perception of socialist countries so far, socialism is a newer system than capitalism. And if you look around, capitalism is not working out too well and has to be bailed out on a regular basis by socialist policies

Dippy,

Lol

Dippy,

Well, it makes sense how that has happened. The revolution in Russia had many groups working together to kill the Tsar. Once he’s dead, the most militant and authoritarian is going to have the easiest time saying “I’m in charge, no objections right?”

And they did object sometimes, and the tanks turned around when they did.

Dippy,

The soviets spent their entire existence trying to make all countries interested in socialism fall under their thumb. And the USA consequently spent a lot of time trying to make those socialist countries fail. Nothing happened in a vacuum

Dippy,

It’s not like the endorsement of Stalin was chopped liver in the success of the CCP

Dippy,

Bizarre Love Triangle. The original is some very bad pop music. New Years Day brought it not only to rock, but into being really good too.

Dippy,

Meh, I saw this as an excuse to talk about something I wanted to

Dippy,

And a god tier trivia question in 20 years. Who was prime Minister when the queen died?

Dippy,

They would make easy retrofits into college campuses, or any kind of campus really.

Dippy,

Hot take, it wasn’t well adapted and that’s why it’s not around anymore. Trash animal

Dippy,

Trying to recover from ending a couple bad friendships and the fallout that cokes with it

Reminder: crypto isn’t solarpunk. It’s cyberpunk.

Listening to a recent episode of the Solarpunk Presents podcast reminded me the importance of consistently calling out cryptocurrency as a wasteful scam. The podcast hosts fail to do that, and because bad actors will continue to try to push crypto, we must condemn it with equal persistence....

Dippy,

You sure are going to bat for it as though it were

Dippy,

Well I think that’s a very limiting way to have a conversation. You are now placing an expectation on everyone to spend time to make their posts about topic A longer so it can include topic B. That makes it less likely people will engage because post length is a big factor in attention.

Secondly, many of the people excited by crypto, and nearly everybody engaging in solarpunk discourse, recognize the problems with the current system. So OP addressing people who have been led into thinking crypto will solve XYZ is a good thing. Those people know we need change, they just got excited about the wrong change, OP trying to steer them in the right direction is a good thing.

Dippy,

We do have a better idea, it’s called communism as imagined in the solarpunk movement

Dippy,

I don’t believe that you were speaking as clearly as you thought you were. Happens to everyone. When I get caught up being misunderstood, I try to look at what I’ve said and see if there was a better way to have said it.

Dippy,

If you don’t want to be part of the solution, then get out of the fucking way loser. Shut up and let the people who care about the planet change the world. You aren’t special for being a climate nihilist.
