Capitalism rests on the presumption of infinite growth which is just incompatible with reality. We live on a planet with finite resources that can and will become exhausted if we keep up extracting and wasting them at the rate we are right now.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Which is why we should kill it before it kills us, it's inevitable if we do nothing about it.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Yeah housing should be distributed according to need. A system where houses stand empty while people freeze their asses off on the street is nothing short of dysfunctional and hostile.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

I'm knowledgeable about computers which is why I avoid IoT shit at all costs. My home will always have mechanical locks, manual light switches and so on.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Yeah. A system that requires infinite growth to keep functioning is obviously unsustainable and will starve us of resources soon enough.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Didn't you know the more stuff the government does the more socialist it is? Trust me I'm an expert. :kagura-goober:In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

These people grind my fucking gears. Do they unironically think the world was a better place when people were working 14h a day in factories and dying from it left and right?In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Financiers and bankers provide absolutely no benefit to society whatsoever. They just leech off the value real workers create.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

>spend the day herding cats to have employees and contractors do the work
Shiver me timbers, it's so hard hiring people to do the dirty work for you. Poor landlords, I hereby retract my previous statements.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

Seriously though, they just leech off the work of the common man. They do not provide anyone with housing, quite the opposite since they buy up properties for the sole purpose of renting them out which drives up the prices for everyone else.
Who built the property? Workers.
Who repairs the property? Workers.
Who cleans the property? Workers.
Who takes care of the trash? Workers.
Now what service does the landlord provide?In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -

My biggest issue is with the ones that have hundreds of houses/apartments and build absurd amounts of wealth off the hard work of regular people. Ultimately though the real beast is the system that allows this to happen in the first place.In conversation from asbestos.cafe permalink -
