Some poor people really really love being cucked by rich people. Uggh

Exactly. Sure, shutting down existing plants is dumb af (looking at you, Germany). But building new plants now with the aim of having an impact on climate change just isn't the most effective decision.

Exactly. Building nuclear power plants in the 80s should've been the way humanity went. Now, advancements in batteries (Sodium ion for example) and established supply chains means that solar/wind + batteries is the way to go.

I don't agree with ur safety take on nuclear energy though. All nuclear energy accidents were the result of shitty operational management who were warned waaaay before. It's like airlines in the 60s, where safety standards were hilariously bad. Now, with extremely stringent regulations, we can solve the safety issues.

It's a joke my guy...

I see. Are there any clothing coops? I'm not really seeing even a single one of those online among the coop federation.

I don't understand. You can still vote for Calgary Coop's Board of Directors, get rebates and stuff like that, no? Same with the credit unions you mentioned, right? I don't mean to challenge your position of course- I just want to understand the problem better.

I also see that you dislike the merger between the two credit unions. Why's that bad? Won't it be better to have a larger democratic bank?

Awww thank u so much!!! Really excited to get there!

Libertarian socialism (and its subsets) is the most logical political position. Capitalists are tyrants. However, a large state is definitely not the answer. A large state is slow, inefficient and almost always tyrannical.

We can achieve a classless post-scarcity society while still having a small state, with the help of worker-consumer hybrid co-operatives and free federations of these. Free association should always be important for any political system.

That is not quite true. Electric cars over their lifetime are definitely a lot lot better than ICE cars. HOWEVER, they are definitely not the solution for transportation. Public transit is.

Getting new electric vehicles makes sense for vehicles that simply cannot be replaced by other alternatives (examples of such vehicles being pickups for businesses, those little vans for the post office, buses, etc.).

Of course, the most eco friendly thing is generally what u already have. Switching to an electric car from ur five year old ICE car is more environmentally damaging.

Be vigilant, and also protect your joy in living everyday life, bc at the end of the day that's kinda all you have so don't let it slip away with too many far-off thoughts that you have no control over.

True. It just feels so depressing on social media due to stuff like this. Do what needs to be done. There r many like u doing the same thing. U r not alone.

Don't let our fear crumple us into not acting at all, but instead focusing on what needs to be done.

Perfectly said! No need to be all sad n depressed (like I was today) due to events like these. Do what needs to be done. Know that u r not alone in doing this. There r many many people working to make the world a better place. Have trust in them.

<3 to u too!!!
