If anything, communism has been tried, but it's never been achieved. A stateless, classless, currencyless society still sounds frickin awesome... But that's not we've had :(

Man, a group like Info Wars would probably love data like. They could prop it up as "proof" that the Hollywood elite are corrupt and eroding traditional values.

Every time I start to listen and learn from people more left than I am, they get to the part about how after revolution there's probably going to be a period of autocratic rule that should then dissolve by the will of the people. Except none of them talk about plans to actually facilitate the transfer of power, or better yet, prove Lenin wrong by not going thru a period of more authoritarianism.

I some times feel a bit alone on lemmy solely because I'm not as tech inclined as a lot of the userbase, but it's reminders like this that make me feel a bit ok about it.

The amount of sugar and palm kernel oil in Nestle chocolate makes me not even enjoy their products if I get them for free. They barely taste like cocoa

We either move on to Sonic, Heathcliff, or let Odie have his day in the sun.
