And Star Trek.

What about GNU+Linux?

I just browse the feed by top x hours and I see so much of it. Also buttholes.

Be cool if we had more communities like Superbowl

I subscribe to nothing. I just browse the local and global feeds.

I want to seize the means of production as much as the next guy but it gets kinda boring after a while if that's the only content available

socialism itself is just, kinda weird. From a philosophical perspective it makes sense and has clear distinctions. But from a practical view it's just sort of. Capitalism but if it was more confusing for some reason. If you go too far into one direction, it's just communism, and that's not socialism, obviously. The other direction and it's literally just capitalism, so it has to sit in this weird space between where you can't engage with the best parts of capitalism (or it just weirdly handicaps parts of capitalism) and communism.

and then of course you've got people (probably grifters) like hasan piker who claim to be socialist while having millions of dollars, but doing literally nothing with it, because investing it wouldn't be socialist, and you can't really just give it away, because well, it's a lot of money. I mean you could, but it's also just, sort of redundant at that point.

Realistically he should be investing that money into a lot of different things, increasing returns on revenues, and creating a content creator collective or something silly like that, but to my knowledge he hasn't probably because he's either stupid or lazy. I don't blame him for either of those things though.

socialism, particularly modern western socialism that's based on capital needs a fundamental proof of concept work-through before we can really do anything with it, i think.

Capitalism, while it has problems, it at least makes sense on a fundamental human perspective. I own things, you own things, we own things, that also applies to capital as well. It's so fundamentally tied to the human experience and history that it's just sort of hard to deviate from. Even china does a lot of capitalism.

man that was much longer than i anticipated. Apologies in retrospective lol.

Anyway for the second part of the admittedly very old and dead joke by this point in the post. It's a meme about socialism on the internet. (particularly a farther left space on the internet)
