Privacy@lemmy.ml•Flock Cameras are PUBLIC DOMAIN in Washington state. You can file a FOIA for your Flock data. Now police say that citizens getting public docs are now a "privacy concern".

Look, you don’t have to convince me that capitalism is ultimately problematic and we should live in more anarchistic communities. You have some fine points here but the thing he specifically mentioned was as follows:
We need to build wind farms in order to shut down coal plants, but then environmental reviews (and NIMBYism) are blocking projects. You might argue the solution is to consume less power, but I think that we’ll find that an unconvincing argument until the big collapse arrives.
Another example could be CA’s high speed rail which has been continuously derailed (heh).
My main point is not in support of fascism but instead we often let perfection be the enemy of good enough.
As a final comment, I believe liberalism is morally bankrupt and that is specifically why I used the term leftist instead.
p.s. I don’t think conservatism is making mistakes. they are fulfilling their agenda but they have different (and IMO problematic) goals. I’ve heard two things that can help put their arguments in perspective: (a) they believe the world is zero-sum; (b) hierarchy is something to be embraced instead of challenged
I left my comment on the repost. Here it is:
He goes on to have, what I believe, is a valid complaint: Leftists have ideals which block progression towards our goals.
One example: Instead of building a wind farm, we are arguing about economic impact, and then still stay on coal while we that argument occurs.
I think overall the video misses the point. The complaints are that bureaucracy/red tape/seeking perfection (in states such as CA) prevent society from doing things with impact such as building high speed rail, creating 15 minute communities (Shout out to !15minutecity@slrpnk.net), and providing shelter for all.
This is completely valid, but it has nothing to do with solarpunk.

Solarpunk magazine is a great place to start https://solarpunkmagazine.com/
I cannot find the reference now, but I remember reading about favelas and how they are designed with courtyards so that there can be a shared responsibility of childcare.
The other thing that jumps to mind is dorms for students in the US which have a very similar coliving feel. I believe the Dutch and some Nordic countries were also collocating the elderly into similar areas to create a mixed generation encampment.

4·1 year agoHey, someone using your template just blasted all my work. the NK was overlaid nicely and the trunk was preserved. Can you perhaps make a note somewhere in your Canvas 2024 channel?
I have found that this site from the Australian government has provided lots and lots of useful information that can be used as a reference to prevent a lot of fighting https://raisingchildren.net.au/







Amazing. Did you make these yourself?
