It’s so fucking stupid. We don’t need an AI water shortage. The water exists, it’s just not in fucking tax havens like Texas elon.
Course, can’t blame the corpos that governments wont do their damn job protecting citizens water supplies.
Also, aren’t these places pretty hot!? Capitalism is weird.

Lol they get a capable chatbot that blows everything out of the water and suddenly they are like “yeah, this will be the last big thing”
From a class perspective the rich are those who hire labor rather than laboring themselves. But we could start with billionaires.
We don’t have it. We don’t have anything.
Why do a general strike if not to overthrow the normal non-working system and do something we can’t otherwise do. Like force an impeachment and an immediate election.
The reality is a general strike is unlikely to happen.
But if it does happen it happens with some organization.
Someone will gain popularity.
They can win an election with such an organized base.
They can then do what Trump is doing but x10 in the other direction.
But there’s always the better option that the general strike leads to some kind of mass conflict and Trump and his cronies get simply removed via coup.
But I mean, ideally, the GOP and anyone associated with the party would all rot in jail like the Germans did with Nazis. Hopefully with some Dems next door.
Well as I said in another post, all of the government needs to be investigated for financial corruption. R’s and D’s. We are literally no better having Trump than anyone in the R’s because the party as an apparatus as well as a cultural institution has sold out to both capital and fascist foreign powers. But that doesn’t mean we need a Dem, unless it’s a non establishment Dem.
Ideally the new President would be a worker president coming from the general strike.
I know I really think we need to unify on the fact you literally don’t need to be even socialist to realize we need to eat the rich in America.
After that we can argue over what next
No one in the Nazi party is an acceptable alternative to Trump.
Almost everyone in office today is a serious criminal, usually for financial crimes. Bribery and insider trading. We really just need to get the FBI to stop being controlled by the president and scared to prosecute sitting reps.
Unfortunately with my last post, a real general strike needs like a 2 word rallying cry, or a vanguard party which is dangerous. Those are just my ideas.
Sure but it’d have to be with replacement.

Demolish the senate as undemocratic, and empty the Supreme Court. Somehow end gerrymandering in the house. Federally fund elections and re-establish bribery as one of the worst felonies in our government. Put election of all positions directly in the hands of the popular vote. Allow any person in any position to be replaced at any time with referendum. Appoint a special department beyond any judicial, federal, or state authority with the sole purpose of investigating and prosecuting active representatives for unconstitutional activities. Arrest representatives for the very appearance of misconduct, frequently and constantly.
And I guess end advertising and corporate ownership in journalism so we can get actual news again.
Rank choice voting to end party dominance.
Sorry the USA basically needs to be replaced for anything to get better
Yes I made a long time ago an openscad project that converted text to braille. Those kinds of things are where it shines.
Yes and there’s a good Python adapter language if I recall.
However freecad is also OSS and it has good parametrics. I don’t know how to do fancy stuff so works for me.
Yeah I 100% agree. Protests do absolutely nothing. It’s legal for instance to drive someone to get an abortion. It’s legal to organize a union or organized interest/lobbying group. In the illegal space, if you are of the drug dealer affinity, get people their abortion pills and hormone therapies (and cheap GLP-1s and insulin while your at it). Get ready to hide people in your attic like people did during the nazi’s. Organize offline and “clean” interest groups that can share information by word of mouth, and meet in public not on zoom, because all online activity is monitored.
I don’t believe anyone can organize to directly confront the police/military or institutions that are defended by the police/military. Actual disobedience needs to be in the shadows.
I think socialists and liberals would both benefit from having more politically filtered in-person interest groups. A. to bring people out of their online bubble, B. to associate leftism and liberalism with community and fun, and C. so the community building offline is there since online is a surveillance medium. video games, sports clubs, etc. ESPECIALLY in spaces that are currently right leaning.
