Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

Longtermism is Silicon Valleys' own retooling of purchasing indulgences from the church, except they don't pay anybody. Dismiss it for your own sanity. Every one of these people writing these manifestos and Forbes think pieces are all going to die like the rest of us, covered in mud and shit and worms. They will not conjure post-scarcity, they will not (safely) help the population cap out at 50 billion, and they will never take our species to space. And if one of these slugs makes it into cyberspace, the proletariat have a duty to melt the servers containing their mind with fucking thermite. Death to the God emperors. Let them die stillborn rather than escape earth. FUCK "longtermism".
This right here.
Longtermism is a ponzi scheme wrapped up in eugenics and white supremacy
Not too sure about that, but it'll make the live of a belter in "The Expanse" look like a holiday, beratna.
Based comment btw.
