Honestly wtf was up with old time adventure people? They’d like drag a whole fucking house with them, “Oh dear I can’t spend a week in Antarctica without a claw foot bathtub!”

UBI without some sort of partner program to de-commodity the things humans need to live (food, shelter, healthcare) and eventually things we need to live a decent life (education, recreation) would likely lead to a situation like in The Expanse where the “basic income” is truly basic, just enough to live off ramen noodle and rent a crap studio. What jobs there were would be hotly competed over since everyone wants more to life than microwaved noodles and playing the first Halo on a 20 year old Xbox.

This may sound a bit weird, but it’s a random thought I’ve had, does anyone ever feel like memes like this almost make us leftists come off a bit too idealistic and romantic?

Lemme clarify where I’m coming from here. As I get older, I’m in mg 30s now, I’ve come to the realization a lot of people don’t want the life of a bohemian artist who’s traveling constantly and does six different types of creative hobby. A lot of people want a kinda boring stable life with a house, a job that’s rewarding but not too physically or mentally taxing, enough time off to take a nice vacation once or twice a year, and the resources to keep them and their family comfortable. I guess I say this cuz this is increasingly how I feel as I get older. Add this to the fact that I don’t think FALGSC is coming anytime soon, if Mecha Lenin pulled off the perfect revolution today we’d still probably have a few generation of people needing to pull 9-5s before we got to the point we could all be space traveling poets like in Star Trek so maybe don’t oversell what we can deliver to people alive now? Focus on shit an actual socialist government could achieve in our lifetimes, like public housing, more vacation time, free healthcare?

It’s better citations than you fucking Libs can ever provide

I’m only sexually attracted to people I find repulsive

It’s pretty clear the Soviets expected Germany to violate the pact, they wouldn’t have bothered building a massive fucking defensive line between them and Germany if they hadn’t.

I do fear that you’ll be dissatisfied with the quality of that government housing.

IDK Austria and a few other Euro nations seem to be pulling it off okay.

Can I rent from someone who isn’t a capitalist who’s charging me way more than the cost of upkeep for the property to make a profit? Also even if we have a housing market wouldn’t the option to live in public housing be good for less well off people to help drive down rents on the private housing market?

so you want the government to be the landlord

Is this government controlled by the bourgeois or the proletariat class? If I can’t afford to buy a home (and even then, unless I’m rich enough to buy with cash I’m going to be beholden to the bank I get the loan from) I’m going to have to rent from the bourgeois class no matter what under capitalism, I just get a choice in which member of the bourgeois I get to rent from, they’re gonna be taking my money regardless. If the working class is in control of the state I actually get a say in who’s running the housing authority in my city, I can vote and advocate for housing policies I like, potentially I can make housing totally free, or at least cheap as dirt, cuz it’s not being run as part of the profit motive anymore, which is good for me as a renter. Or I can promote policies where the state build housing for people to own, Cuba for example has one of the highest home ownership rates in the world because the government funds the construction of very cheap housing that people basically “rent to own”.

Soviet Union and Nazi Germany had a pact with each other

The pact that was formed after France and England failed to enter into an anti-Nazi pact with the USSR?

How to libraries, public schools, and roads get build?

Society.

I can vote for who runs the state, I can’t vote for my landlord.

Take a selfie of yourself and the entire state of Rhode Island in the background. You may need a small box or a selfie stick or something tho.

Nothing in your posting history is relevant to this site. So maybe fuck off.

Online, yeah I’d say about 2/3s of them are, but the shit they’re saying usually originates from actual Flat Earther content.

Libs are definitely getting a tingle in their cocks over the idea of China collapsing. That’s why they love those Balkanization maps.

Sure, they’re both loud, immature, hateful

Real civility cuck moment
