It’s perception. Like I said, hide the praxis. It must not be perceivable
Hell, discard it even. It’s more important to focus on immediate material issues than loudly dream about a better world
Praxis is not useful in this day and age, it’s a liability. If it’s your driving force, learn to pretend it’s not
Yeah… I’m using the word very intentionally
Praxis is academic. It scares people. We must hide the fact our arguments are driven by ideology and focus on the material conditions and how they can be immediately improved
We need to stop with the praxis. It’s a playbook written in another era, further warped by decades of midwits and sabotage
And it just scares off the masses. No one is going to read your pamphlet unless they already mostly agree with you, in which case why are you talking to them?
Every successful political movement is evangelical
Because your diet sucks. A few months of eating only unprocessed food and you’d probably eat McDonald’s exactly one more time in your life
And I do specifically mean McDonald’s… It’s uniquely disgusting, even among fast food. It tastes like it’s reconstituted food scraps doped with sugar
Gatekeep at the grocery store. It’s easier to resist eating a full tub of Oreos by deciding not to buy them in the first place
It’s easier to moderate what platforms you use than it is to resist their affect on you. Restrict where and how you are exposed to short form video and what kinds of social media you use
Also, take magnesium glycinate, but not on an empty stomach. Basically everyone with ADHD has a magnesium deficiency that makes the symptoms way worse
They’re becoming closer and closer to it though. Scary court decisions are being made, it won’t be long before someone tests it as a legal argument
They taste great to most Americans, the sugar is mostly in there to cover up low quality ingredients
Theoretically? Probably, I rarely touched windows outside of Windows centric shops. Practically, you’re going to have to make that a much more blurry line
There’s going to be times you have to deal with Windows. That can be as little as “effectively never” depending on your path and choices, but if you’re a hardliner it’s going to close doors on you just for picking a dumb hill to die on
Why I signed up to go through this hellscape
Because sometimes you feel like doing a little trolling, and it’s better to ethically source your trolling
=3
Are you sure you’re not talking about a traffic circle?
Roundabouts have specific rules, not every circular intersection is a roundabout
Because companies don’t do R&D anymore, they fund startups and aquire them when they’re ripe
Being able to replace workers with AI is a holy Grail for capitalism, and so a ton of companies have poured their saved up “R&D funds” in order to get in early
I think they’re too big to bail out at this point
Also, no one wants US bonds right now, so we couldn’t borrow our way out of it even if we wanted to. We’d just have to print like a trillion or more dollars all at once
Have you heard of Slate? They sound a lot like what you’re looking for
It’s really not…You could hike the whole inca trail and spend 3 weeks getting there, or you could take a bus and hike a couple minutes
Not hard at all. You can take a bus, then the road ends and you basically have to walk up a big hill to reach the city
It is at high elevation, but beyond that it’s not particularly hard
And the humans move around them, guiding parts into place with mechanical assistance and doing the finer details, because it’s really fucking hard to fully automate the process
Right… Conquer the stars…hides new global warming plan to do nothing about it behind back
And you don’t understand what being effective means.
You’re why we’re fucked.
