> Three groups want power ("communities", government, and corporations). Republicans reduce government. Democrats reduce "communities". All that's left are corporations.
not really. government is formally democratic elected
corporations are feudal
British crown call themself corporation
Varoufakis knows what he say:
>However, today the vast majority of capital and wealth belongs to a handful of companies, a sort of modern feudalism. Moreover, these companies own the vast majority of existing media institutions and by default, the information provided to consumers.
because elected representative will not violate your human rights (under normal circumstances). a feudal doesnt concider you as human being. you belong to lower caste in the feudal society and you will NEVER be able to change this
democracy is corrupted now, but corruption is a social technology. feudals/elite/corporations turn democracy into a farce not without reason. they even engage clowns, alcoholics and idiots as politicians
Overpopulation is literally the single most important problem for this planet.
Yet somehow literally every single ideology leads people to scream in fits of rage at everyone who tells them this.
- rightwing extremists say it leads to white genocide
- leftwingers say you are some kind of racist because you want less brown people to be born
- normies say it is all a lie and will inevitably balance out at 10 billion (as if that isn't way too much already)
- traditionalists/christians and some others want to pursue their personal dream of having 10 children and don't care about the picture at large
It's why the ecosystem of this planet will collapse or at least radically change radically worsen the living conditions for the human species. Humans in general might survive in greatly reduced numbers, civilization will certainly not.
If we opened our eyes we could prevent this catastrophe by strategic planning, but with the dumb majority of people this is not possible. We are driving our car full speed against a wall and some with open eyes are along for the ride, seeing the disaster, while everyone else has their eyes closed.
Low IQ answer. If you do that in Germany, you will literally be standing on some kind of ground that is covered by human industry and unavailable to natural ecosystems. From here to the horizon I can see nothing but human settlements, farms, and forests used for industrial wood and timber production. Native animals like wolves, aurochs and even lions are gone.
Wild animals or undisturbed nature basically don't exist anymore. It's all humans, animals bred for human consumption and land used for human industry.
Pretty spot on.
People think that democracy is about voting while its actually about local communities self-organizing, recognizing own interests, selecting able leaders and articulating their needs through them. Without parishes, unions, farmer associations there can be no democracy.
We has been sold a lie that democracy is inefficient and that we should move more and more goverment tasks to the apolitical experts, emancipate central banks from goverment control etc. Covid crisis had shown that it doesnt make goverment reaction any quicker, and experts in general were proven to be useless scum with own group interests. Unelected and unpunishable.
