You know what “radicalized” me? Existing in a poorly regulated capitalist system.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 23 points 4 months ago

Even regulated Capitalism is brutal, unsustainable, and dangerous.

It's almost like no matter how old or how advanced we get we need somebody to break up our fights and to make us share our toys so that our little siblings can play with them.

That's kind of weird but treating any sufficiently large group of humans like a child eventually becomes a necessity to prevent them from turning into an unregulated group of psychopaths.

Sure, even in Socialism and Communism there would be laws and a government.

I don't think this has any bearing in reality, it just sounded nice in your head.

Kay : A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

No, I don't. People work better socially than individually.

It's a quote from Men in Black.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

I disagree with the ideas you're presenting through Men in Black quotes.

[-] bizarroland@fedia.io 1 points 4 months ago

Your disagreement has been noted

That about sums it up, yeah. My beliefs aren't radical, but my thoughts on the means that should be taken to realize them are becoming more radical.
