/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

  • They're also good at collaborating together to both protect the wealth they already have and to get even richer.

    They have class solidarity and are always cooperating to advance the interests of their social class.

  • I'm not even necessarily comparing costs, I'm demonstrating that that solar is surpassing nuclear in the real world and it's only going to accelerate. Dirty energy doesn't benefit from being lapped by solar, there is no advantage for dirty energy if we just invest in solar+grid-scale battery storage instead of nuclear energy. You can't just say "every power source is the same, nothing is different" and expect that to be a coherent idea. Some clean energy sources are better than others.

    Nuclear has its place, but it's small and it always will be.

  • You can't vote away fascism.

    If fascists allow themselves to be voted out, fascism didn't go away. It's just been put on pause until they win again.

    We have to win every single election for the rest of history. They only have to install someone willing to end US elections once. Unless we solve this problem in a more permanent fashion, the fascists will always just be one more election from taking over again.

  • We could build a solar laser with a ton of mirrors

    Jump

  • Lasers are coherent, I think you need a lasing medium for that.

    You could focus the light into a single point, sure, but that's not really a laser in the technical sense.

  • The sheer historical revisionism that the anti-communist left does whenever the Black Panthers are mentioned!

    Jump

  • The Panthers were pretty explicitly pro-China, pro-Vietnam, and pro-DPRK. That alone is enough for them to be smeared as "tankies" by Western so-called leftists.

  • Parenti haters are coping hard after their pro US state Anarchist professor got caught in the didler's list.

  • There's an interesting assumption going on here.

    You seem to believe that everyone wants to go to lavish rape parties, and the only thing stopping them is a lack of power.

    Why is that?

  • Bold of you to assume they thought about this at all!

  • The Axis massacred hundreds of Muslim POWs whom it mistook for Jews

    Jump

  • That's actually the line being pushed right now:

    'The Holocaust was the murder of six million Jewish men, women and children. 'Ignoring that the victims were Jews, widening the figure to include all victims of the Second World War, or attempting to draw in contemporary conflicts, is an abuse of the memory of the Holocaust and an insult to victims and survivors. It comes after outgoing BBC director-general Tim Davie in December ordered all staff to complete a training course on antisemitism 'Any attempt to dilute the Holocaust, strip it of its Jewish specificity, or compare it to contemporary events is unacceptable on any day. On Holocaust Memorial Day, it is especially hurtful, disrespectful and wrong.'

  • Did I say nuclear was bad?

    I said that nuclear is inferior, and it is. It will play a minor role in the transition, the hype generated by techbros around nuclear is vastly overblown. The main advantages that nuclear has is that enriching uranium is also important for producing medical isotopes, for nuclear submarines and nuclear-powered satellites/spacecraft, and the process is similar for making bombs. Solar can't do any of that.

    But there's a reason that nuclear will always lag behind, at least enriched uranium reactors. It's extremely expensive and it's comparatively not as good at the primary task of generating power for the cost it has.

    Now if thorium reactors could ever get off the ground that would be interesting.

  • They're good at what made them rich and powerful! They're not good at much else, they're not smart about much else, and they can't really do much else. But! They're still they're very good at what they do, and they love doing it.

    They have a specialized set of skills and interests that revolve around making money and gaining influence/power.

    Your enemies aren't dummies, that's why they win. Stop underestimating them. They're gonna fucking kill us all.
