      unfortunately capitalism will never be fully eradicated, the usa will continue to murder bipoc till the end of time

      we can still hope more and more countries adopt communism, cuba and venezuela are doing great so i expect many countries to follow soon enough

        It really doesn’t look like USA is going to be around much longer. In fact, a model US themselves produced is predicting collapse and a likely civil war in the near future. The model identifies factors like the pandemic and a loss of a war as major drivers.

          we are going to have a civil war and, unfortunately, capitalism will likely win. capitalists would rather nuke their own country then let progress win

            I expect that extreme weather due to climate change will be what ultimately does US in. A river in Colorado that around 40 million people rely on is already drying up, and California is running out of fresh water as well. Meanwhile, heatwaves this year resulted in massive crop loss. Then there were megafires, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events like Texas cold snap. All of this is straining failing infrastructure, production of goods, and supply chains to the breaking point. As a result there are already shortages of essential items.

            We’ll see more of such events and of greater intensity each and every year going forward, and there’s little chance US would be able to react to these problems in a coordinated fashion. All it will take is a single extreme weather event that will kill crops to cause a famine. And historically that tends to be the breaking point. People can put up with a lot, but there’s really nothing left to lose when you’re starving to death.

            So, I don’t think capitalists are going to win per se, but horrible things are likely in store for US in the near future due to capitalist failures.

              Imagine how many of those problems could have been mitigated with regulations and public investments. But no, i’m sure people like musk will save us all…

        Right. Capitalism or any form of society is evolved to be so. If a theory predicts it fails, it’d better predict a stronger replacement.

    FreeBSD. I want to see how it grows, I think it will eventually be one of the most popular OS’s.

      How?

      The BSD license means companies can use and not give back. In practice, that’s exactly what they do. Hardly any of the big corporates that use BSD have employees who give a damn about the free ecosystem (OpenBSD foundation, Wind River, etc etc. I’ve lived near offices for both of them and interviewed people who used to work there), and the BSD community has lately taken a hard on for getting angry at the Freedesktop guys because… There aren’t enough BSD contributors to keep Freedesktop’s BSD sections pristine.

      I’ve spent years trying to understand the BSD ecosystem and community, and come to the solid conclusion that I’m not missing anything, it’s just an outdated project and philosophy.

          100% agreed. Copyleft is a cancer. It grows and grows and it imposes restrictions.

          But it’s a great cancer - because these restrictions prevent removal of freedom. These restrictions throttle greed and hurt those who don’t want to give back. GPL forces companies to help the little ones, and it’s one of the reasons why BSDs can’t catch up to Linux.

              Theory vs Practice, BSD vs GPL.

              In theory, using BSD means companies give back. They don’t.

              In practice, using GPL means companies must give back. They do.

              There’s exceptions to both rules (i.e Onyx or Netflix) but those are undeniably the exception rather than the rule. This is supported by the progress made with copyleft licenses.

      freebsd will die soon. openbsd will be the one to live

      freedom is inherently unsustainable

    I don’t see capitalism going anywhere, and in our current system i’m basically a slave with extra steps. so.
