    Also the soldiers people typically treat a little nicer are usually long past their service and regret what they did heavily while arguing against further imperialism. People are incredibly wary of the ones that loved their time in the military.

    Meanwhile the cops are actively working their jobs or living off a fat taxpayer pension which was their reward for killing 10 black people or dogs.

    To your point though, military recruitment is, by nature, open to all but a small number of people, while cops are ostensibly a boys club that will turn anyone they “don’t like” away. They keep the best pay and pensions for “their kind”; while the military pays pennies and makes people beg like dogs to get medical treatment. The difference is fairly grim.



  • An antitrust lawsuit put forward by… massive gaming and tech corporations who want a total monopoly.

    Those “low prices” they’re talking about is selling games at dirt cheap prices through a subscription model. Meanwhile paying developers fuck all, and then when the competition goes under they jack up prices through “fees”. Another way they plan on reducing prices is playing ads in-game through kernel level players you can’t block, wonderful. No free modding either, you might add things that prevent the company from making a profit, and we need you to buy our premium currency like Roblox.

    Also better hope you don’t develop any “problematic” games or you might get blacklisted from ever selling a game again due to Visa and Mastercard wanting more profit too.








  • True, but there isn’t much of a society left. Productive forces don’t really exist beyond artisanal and sustenance production, and neither does organized or capitalist modes of production. There isn’t anything to really organize, let alone lead.

    They live in commune societies where the collective own the means of production, reject money, they attempt to elevate tribal groups through education, they’re anti-fascist and only maintain a tenuous relationship with the liberal NCR, and attempt to recruit through their outreach.

    Society tetters between tribal and early feudal at best, and even then barely. What is a socialist to do in a “society” like that? Volunteer outreach is all that’s left, not like there’s much to do a “revolution” against.
