Just your average friendly neighbourhood radical.

  • a democratic decision to do the takeover

    That's why you are not allowed anything that remotely resembles democracy - instead, you get an interactive horse and pony show every few years where you are allowed to choose which gang of racketeers gets to represent the rich's interests.

    u don’t see how the police would stand in the way of that.

    They are standing in the way of that right now. It's their only function - it's the only function they have ever had and ever will have.

    But at least that is a peaceful path.

    There is no peaceful way to dismantle capitalism. The capitalists and their cronies has seen to that.

  • I don’t like how the comic seems to encourage a violent takeover of property like this.

    May have something to do with the fact that the capitalists have armies of state-funded paramilitaries called "police" that makes any kind of peaceful takeover utterly impossible.

  • TIL: There are still people that trust Microsoft.

  • So that's what they pay the most irrelevant person in the company?

    Perfectly fine and rational economic system we've got going here...

  • During my project management days one of the things I learned the hard way is to nail down exactly what something has to deliver and getting everybody involved to sign onto it in black and white - if you don't, disaster follows.

    Agile seems literally designed to make this impossible.

  • Who did you think presided over colonialism, genius? Martians?

    By the time of the Great Irish Famine (one of the British Empire's earliest achievements) the transformation of England from a feudal society to a liberal one was complete.

    The US was literally founded as the model for the liberal nation state - it's entire history of genocide, slavery and yes, colonialism was drenched in the tenets of liberalism from the moment the constitution was signed right to this very day.

    Go redo your history - and, this time, don't get it from PragerU.

  • Isn’t it more that people tend to use agile as an excuse for not having any kind of project plan.

    I'd say it's more about continuously milking customers on projects that never seem to end. I've never done software project management, but I have seen it's "tenets" applied to other types of projects. The results were arduous - to say the least.

  • opportunities

    Really? It has nothing to do with the hundreds of years of colonialist looting and pillaging liberals presided over that is still ongoing today?

    freedom.

    Really? This has nothing to do with with the targeted maldevelopment of the 3rd world presided over by liberals that is, again, ongoing to this very day?

    Way to go outing yourself like that, white supremacist.

  • Liberty means freedom

    And has liberalism delivered any of this?

  • And a good thing it is, too - if you liberals were managing it lemmy would have been sold off to Meta or Google a long time ago.

  • whether under a socialist regime,

    There is no such thing as a "socialist" regime... not in the way we generally use the term regime, anyway. And the regimes that (falsely) attributed to themselves the characteristics of socialism never claimed to make a virtue out of human greed like our neoliberal ones do.

    all it takes to destroy the system is for greedy people

    Are you trying to say that a disjointed and incoherent jumble of pretexts, justifications and outright lies masquerading as an ideology that specifically exists to justify said human greed will (somehow) be destroyed by human greed?

    Looks to me like it's working as designed... and not "destroyed" at all.

  • It's always been crony capitalism. There is no other kind of capitalism - never has been.

  • late-stage crony capitalism.

    So... capitalism.

    crony capitalist system which feeds corporate greed.

    Sooo... capitalism?

    Our government is controlled by a handful of mega corps which have their hands pulling the strings due to the lobbying system.

    So just bog-standard capitalism, then?

    Regulated capitalism is fine

    The Soviets tried that and failed. The Chinese tried it too, and it turned into... bog-standard capitalism.

  • People keep pointing the finger at AI, but miss the fact that the problem is corporate greed capitalism. AI has the possibility to help us solve problems, corporate greed capitalism will gate keep the solutions and cause us suffering.

    No need to thank me.
