  • Point 2 and 3: If I already “leak” (should be: get my activities monitored and collected btw), then surely the most beneficial legal standard for the people (if one meant it as a safeguard again fascism) would be a ban on collecting any private information without explicit, affermative, expiring and unprompted consent?

    This technology has zero potential for fascist abuse.

    This is not “technology”, this is a law being enforced on technology. All laws can get used by politicians to push their ideologies, there isn’t a single regulation that can’t be used to push some agenda.

    Point 5

    There are already tools that allow parents to limit their childrens autonomy. It is the responsibility of the parent to make sure their child is safe, if somebody can’t guarantee that, they shouldn’t be one.




  • I appreciate that you feel strongly, but being this agressive and calling the other person “propagandized” and telling them to “educate yourself”, and not adresing any point made, just makes you seem irrational. You are acting like a redditor, be better.

    Read Marx and Lenin

    I’ve read Marx and Lenin, their work while fundamental to quite a lot of socialist movements, is now mostly outdated. Read something modern, there are more relevant analysis of workers material conditions. Do you want some recommendations?

    For one, anyone educated would understand that Americans are the best example of sheep in the world and that many Europeans are good second examples. The British for example with their high tolerance for a surveillance, laws that criminalize all manners of small trivialities, etc, etc.

    This doesn’t connect to anything I wrote btw.


  • China isn’t run by an “oligarchy” but by a dictatorship of the communist party via a mandate of the masses

    Almost all one-party systems meet the definition of a oligarchy. Also not via a mandate of the masses, not anymore, read about how Xi Jinping came to be the general secretary.

    they execute CEOs and rich people there

    You could have worded this a bit better, it reads as “being rich is enough to get you executed” and not as “being rich doesn’t make you exempt from capital punishment”. There’s plenty of those over there ofc, over a thousand billionaires.

    They need a police state to control the workers

    Bit irrelevant because all states seek to control the workers, that’s how states work. And why all communistic political ideologies aim to abolish the state at some point.

    Edit: To be clear, I agree with you in general. I just got bugged a bit by those three things 😅
