You danced around the fact that late stage capitalism is a shitshow of monopolies.
Secondly, “renewable” does not equal “unlimited”.
Food, despite being renewable, is not unlimited, regardless of scientific advancements. It is a limited resource, and access to it is extremely limited in a monopolistic late-stage capitalistic system. Land, housing, minerals, and the physical components of all consumer goods are composed of limited resources.
Time is a limited resource.
Lowering regulations for private entities would empower them against corporations.
Are you suggesting we have a more powerful government to limit incorporation? Otherwise, private entities stand no chance.
If you are suggesting the government abolish the right to incorporate, I’d entertain that notion with you. As well as an amendment to the 14th amendment while we’re at it.
And just for clarity, when we’re talking about regulations, are you also suggesting we dismantle things like the FDA?
These comments look like they’re pulled from Facebook. I have been getting used to expecting Lemmy to provide a more empathetic and nuanced take on topics.
North Carolina is a purple state. With around five and a half million votes counted, the election was decided by 74,000, well within the margin of voter suppression and disenfranchisement.
Regardless, it takes an absurdly callous disconnectedness to look on a tragedy of that level without empathy.
It shouldn’t require looking at vote totals to determine whether people are worthy of being treated with human decency in the wake of catastrophic trauma.
