Deceptichum , to Work Reform in For years, I suspected MI5 interfered in the miners’ strike. The truth was even more shocking than I thought | Mark Hollingsworth

I'm confused after reading this? So during this strike, a court ordered the union to pay some money, instead the union moved its money into overseas accounts, and a politicians worked with MI5 to track these accounts down and freeze them?

Like I fully support the union, but I thought it was going to be something serious such as MI5 infiltrating the union and becoming agent provocateurs, this just seems rather tame and less shocking than I expected.

No, no leftist is for privatized ownership of the means of production.

Even market socialists, an extremely niche group barely even worth mentioning still advocate for it public ownership of most things.

We do still believe in those solutions?

The left is not relative, nor has the meaning shifted in all this time.

The left is the same communists and anarchists it has been for over a hundred years world wide now.

Political party popularity does not change political ideological meaning.

And the American system doesn’t encourage duopoly, it literally enforces it. So yes, of course many leftists are going to feel disenfranchised after close to a century of being villainised and neglected by their “representatives”. The solution to that is for a party to adopt leftist ideals, but that goes against the interests of the ruling class who’s money and influence runs the game.

No. The left has a very clear political meaning, it does not simply mean “Whats less to the right”.

When leftists talk about leftist policies as solutions to issues, we dont mean “oh right wing policies but just not super right”.

Left —————| Middle |—A——B— Right

Tell me, what side of that spectrum do you think A is?

When has the left ever had power in the US? Labour in the UK had a bit post war, but they've since stopped being left.

You cant just call neolibs the left and complain that the left didnt do anything.

The earth does however indeed orbit the moon (or technically they both orbit a common centre between the earth and the moon).

Heres you referring to the Earth moon barycenter as just ‘the moon’

Deceptichum , to xkcd in xkcd #2898: Orbital Argument
@Deceptichum@kbin.social avatar

Are you saying that in no way shape or form, does the moon and its affect on the earth and earth-moon barycenter not influence the solar barycenter?

Id accept no way worth caring about, but as an absolute?

Deceptichum , to Star Trek in The Cast Of ‘Star Trek: The Next Generation’ To Receive Special Lifetime Achievement Saturn Award
@Deceptichum@kbin.social avatar

Doesn't look like it, but it also looks like they don't award shows prior to their founding ('72). So TNG has the benefit of winning multiple awards since airing whereas TOS only has a few movie and re-release awards. Plus most of TOS already have lifelong wards individually.

Deceptichum , to Work Reform in Gen Z is prioritizing living over working because they've seen 'the legacy of broken promises' in corporate America, a future-of-work expert says
@Deceptichum@kbin.social avatar

I’m curious about how different Gen Z is from Millennials here, because everyone in my age range that I know seems to share this sentiment with them?

Various forms of the kangaroo build are spreading across the world, it's apparently a pretty efficient form factor. Wallabies I believe have spread to England, Vietnam?, and the US and are now invasive species in every continent.
