The truly unpopular opinion is the one you’re pretending is popular, people aren’t advocating for immediate replacement without building up green energy and replacing it entirely.
This town, in fact, has more than enough room for the two of us

Growth and stability of necessities aren’t mutually required.
You can have controlled or even negative growth and plenty of food and necessities.
Imagine it this way: what if we made it completely illegal to make party favors and other single-use items with no benefit? Growth would lower, but food production isn’t hurt in the slightest, and other jobs can exist.
Yep, Marx predicted this actually. A huge portion of Marx’s literature is even more relevant today than ever before.
The best product should not be what’s most popular in Capitalism, what’s profitable to produce is what’s most profitable. With tons of competition, you just have competing levels of automation, corner cutting, and exploitation.
Competition and markets in general are the cause of enshittification.
Competition doesn’t lead to innovation in improving people’s lives, but company profits. See: enshittification.
Just finished Signalis, got the “Promise” ending. Feel pretty empty after that, it’s such a good game and is further proof that games don’t have to have incredible graphical fidelity or huge teams to be fantastic and look great.
You don’t understand, she gave us the clue. It has to be this way.
If anyone has actually interacted with corporate engineers, that’s exactly the kind of conversation they have, lmao.
Yep, fucking terrifying.
That’s why I said “unsurprisingly,” and considering South Korea has developed far more recently, it’s also important to recognize that their social progress is behind much of other developed countries. I wasn’t implying that Korea has anything specific about them that made them especially misogynistic, rather, it’s pointing at their current conditions and trajectories.
In theory, yes, though the number of shares required to go against the Chaebol is just not feasible. There’s a reason South Korea specifically has a word for a specific group of Billionaire Capitalists, they are essentially untouchable.
Oh, absolutely, I agree. The only thing that truly brings solace is that reactionary movements get louder when progressive movements grow stronger.
Unsurprisingly, a rising feminist subculture among women. Because Korea in general has been historically misogynistic, exposure to more feminist media and culture as well as societal progression has led to rises in feminism among women. As a response, men have felt threatened, and claim feminists are “going too far,” and call feminists “femi.”
An example of recent incel “controversy” is when an idol character in a video game had a frame where her index finger and thumb appeared like this: 🤏 and incels took that to be offensive to Korean Penis size, and had the man who animated that fired from Nexien. I wish I was joking.
There’s also a massive and rising anti-feminist incel subculture, which the current President Yoon took power from. Women in South Korea don’t trust men in South Korea as much.
Insane work culture, huge wealth inequality, and rising anti-women movements all hurt birth rates.
You actually can’t, Samsung is owned and run by Chaebol. It’s essentially the same family at the top, with no sign of their power shifting.
Fucking Factorio. Tried that shit years ago for 2 minutes and never touched it again.
Not because I didn’t like it, of course. I stopped because I knew if I played any longer I’d have to drop out.
I try to keep it to one longer game, and one shorter game at a time. Right now that’s STALKER Gamma and Signalis, with Signalis on the Steam Deck.
Speaking of, Signalis is fucking amazing, fantastic horror for anyone new to the genre or fans of Silent Hill 2.
Fair! Haven’t done that yet.
People who touch grass tend to enjoy it.
