Wind turbines? Solar thermal? Nuclear in exchange for all of those Bitcoins, perhaps?

🤔🤔🤔 I guess I can empathize. People are always traumatized by whatever their parents tell them. What a shame.
I mean, fair, but still. People should push them to go green.
You can get solar panels for like $100-$200 on Amazon right now. Nice ones. The price of them dropped like a fucking rock since China got involved.
I agree with you. That still means Bitcoin is on the hook though.
🤔 I wonder what the hell it is that’s so scary about admitting they’re wrong to other people.
You’d think with all of the money they’re pulling in, they’d invest in solar panels or something to lower their overhead.
Or am I making the mistake of approaching the situation with common sense?
How would they go about it, do you think? Is there a legal way such a thing could be shut down?
You don’t sound any better to be quite frank. You’re not only lowering yourself by stooping to their level, but you’re legitimizing their behavior by doing exactly what they accused Flying Squid of doing.
I’m surprised no one here has organized something like this yet.
What really matters is that shelter, food and basic necessities is put into the hands of those who need it and no one is discussing how best to do that.
It’s a thinly-veiled justification for allowing AI-generated art on a platform whose user base clearly does not want it.
So I propose a solution:
We start and fund a non-profit organization designed to produce basic living essentials and sell it at the cost to manufacture, regardless of market pressures. Then we all collectively buy from this non-profit and have a functional means of production legally owned and controlled by the people.
Set up strict rules to ban anyone who has ever worked in any upper management position in any for-profit basic essentials producing company from ever holding any position of power in the non-profit. No one from the corporate world at all. No one from any position in state or federal government. No lobbyists or consultants or members of their think tanks or any of their goons.
Use open source designs for the factories and everyone in the community works together to automate them as much as is possible.
I wonder what it would take to convince people to fight for what is right.
Yes, the CEO needs more baby oil to keep the old gears turning.
That poor girl. May her community avenge her.
The article gives barely any details on her rapists. I find that deeply problematic.
What happens if an employer empties the business’s bank account and runs to avoid consequences? Does anyone compensate the employee in that case?
That wouldn’t be practical for most things, especially disposables or perishables like food. It’d be best simply to fine the owner or garnish their bank account. The IRS should enforce wage theft cases since they’re the ones with the power to do that.
People on Lemmy are just as bad.
