Video games aren't a duopoly. There's lots of great indie games coming out. I just started playing The Talos Principle 2, which came out this year. Helldivers is from what I hear a smashing success, and Hades 2 is coming out soon!

"Yes, we already have more empty houses than homeless people, but I'm sure building more houses is the solution to homelessness. We can't disrupt the economy, after all."

We need to instill voters with the courage to vote for actual left wing parties so we can get some politicians in Parliament who'll just do what needs to be done, and seize the empty houses from the investors and landlords.

Users on Lemmy think another person's feelings, if those feelings are in any way self-positive, are a direct and personal assault on themselves.

Do you think under a communist gift economy, release dates for media wouldn't matter?

This rule comes into effect in 2032, mind you, so it's not as aggressive as I'd like, but it is good.

Why doesn't the Chinese federal government just ban new coal developments?

It doesn't work like that. The biggest danger of plastic waste is that it can release microplastics into our waterways and food supply. You can clean up tossed bottles, but you can't clean microplastics.

Good fucking luck. I'll just cycle away. Where is your god now?

If there's a nuclear war I'd rather be using the decentralized, free to use mode of transport that is bikes. Or legs. When the war comes all the car drivers will run out of fuel in a couple days and have to steal it, but I already have a bicycle and cannot be stopped by the breakdown of society.
