Private property? Freedom of speech? Freedom to breed? Freedom of thought?..
Private property. Remove that and many problems will solve themselves real quick, though that will also cause a large number of human deaths before things stabilize
Those are all things that can make a better society. Why do they need to be given up?
Define better.
Nice try conservative policy maker!
We dont need to give up anything we just need change. Regulations are what keeps capitalism from killing us all and this planet. We have allowed deregulation to put us in this spot and its going to get worst.
I would don the black hood and swing the ax
Tis messy work, but it’s gotta be done
Billionaires, to the god Quetzalcoatl.
I think we could sacrifice billionaires to Peppa Pig and it’d still get the job done.
I’m the guy dancing in this image
Hey can you tell me what’s the source of this please? Seems interesting
Conservatives.
Convenience.
Sadly it is something far fewer people are willing to give up than any of the above.It really depends on the kind of convenience.
Some conveniences are easier to give up, especially if giving them up will benefit others.
Example: if we are willing to walk around with smartphones that are 5mm thicker and 50g heavier, and a bit less slick in design, we can fix them instead of buying new ones. This kind of things. And we are not even willing to give that up.
This guy speaks about this (I’m not sure if this is the right video)
Who is “we”? You got a mouse in your pocket or something? I absolutely would make that sacrifice. I hate smartphones. I didn’t own one until 2020 and only ended up with it because some scumbag salesman tricked my aging mom into buying it and adding a new number on her account under contract. So she gave it to me. I wish smartphones would go away. They are as “smart” as AI is “intelligent”. I’ve gone without a car most of my life, i’ve never had netflix/instagram/amazon/twitter/etc accounts, I didn’t have internet for the first 15 years as an adult and I am ready to give these things I have now that I don’t want, which are somehow mandatory to participate in life these days. The prospect of getting rid of it all and trying my hand at hermit life or as a hobo grow stronger every day.
the ability to lie and “falsely claim”.
imagine everybody is stricken with that boy’s wish from “liar liar”
sure there would be a bunch of hurt feelings, but maybe the better world can compensate?
Out of the ones you listed, freedom to breed
Provided they don’t touch freedom to not breed, and we don’t put racist ducks in charge, I think that works be the easiest for me to bear.
But I don’t want kids, so it’s not much of a sacrifice.
It won’t be a better world if there’s no private property or freedom of speech or freedom to breed or freedom of thought.
The instant these freedoms are forfeited, the world becomes worse.
Every last person working to make it a worse world.
How much better we talking here?
Super better. All the important stuff free and top quality. Moonbase.
I’ll let you have my cats but you have to take both because they’re family. And I get to visit.
I think we have more fundamental things to worry about than the cost of stuff.
I don’t particularly want to be remembered for anything in my life. I don’t need fame or standing. I dedicate my life to trying to improve people’s lives as a teacher. I’d give my life if it meant everyone would live a significantly better life forever.
