Bruh Hitler was an absolute dictator, they banned all other political parties. Not a democracy.

Socialism is democratic control of the factors of production, not just when the government does stuff.

They would probably detect that and limit your usage.

Even not using their service still leaves its pollution. IMO the best way to fight back is to support higher pollution taxes. Crypto, AI, whatever's next - it should be technology agnostic.

Absolutely. It's brainwashing the working class against our own best interests - the opiate of the masses. Nice talking with you Comrade Miao, take care!

Yes it is. I suspect those votes keep on passing because there's a social need for it and we aren't spending that money on church.

Where I live, community centers are typically funded by taxes, not donations. Which makes a lot of sense because it's a positive externality. We have the money and just don't want to spend it on church.

If it's not a real strike, then they're replaceable. A "bye Felicia" sort of situation.
