I'm new to lemmy world. I'm noticing every top comment is something negative about capitalism. Either the clueless reddit communists came over or it's just Russian trolls. It could be a stubbed toe, "CAPITALISM FOR YA!!" I picked to post here because this is 8 out of 10 posts now. It's pretty much equivalent to "THANKS OBAMA!"
This is just an interesting artifact of internet communities at work. They are stuck there because Boeing's design was unsafe, Boeing has been suffering from engineering culture decline due to MBAs seeking to maximize profit. Maximizing profit is the end state of late stage capitalism. Thus this is Capitalism's fault.
People are frustrated thus they amplify these posts and ideas. You can notice the effects everywhere once you start looking. However it leads to a boring discussion. I can already see doomer questions flooding Ask Lemmy. While I may agree, it can't all be based on that.
Check where they're from lemmy.ml is literally just a bunch of fucking tankies and russian/ccp apologist. They're idiots who blame everything on capitalism and think communism has never been tried and that everything would be great under communism, so long as they were running the show. It's pretty much just people with no life experience shouting off these things.
Lemmy in a nutshell.
I think capitalism is ruining earth, and is at the heart of most of the problems and challenges, AMA (jk, I don't care). It doesn't mean that I can suggest a good alternative, but observations are what they are.
Yeah, I really hope at least most of them are trolls...
