Funko Pops, to me.
I understand that some of them are fairly overpriced, but I also really like them as is. It doesn’t work on all characters, but it sometimes work on a lot and there’s so much representation and variety that it’s good to have a few.
If people want to talk about waste of plastic and vinyl, they should bark at the companies who make teeny tiny figurines that serve no purpose and have so little detail that spending any money on them is a waste.
Communism.
Yep. Especially on right-wing instances like Lemmy.world in particular, but it’s far worse IRL in the West.
my opinion is that people who push for it havent lived in it. everything is lowest common denominator, if you can even get it. no incentive to invent, no reward for innovation.
You live in a fantasy invented by your own propaganda. I don’t even know how you’d measure what you’re saying at a mass scale, much less notice it while living in a country.
“Oh man, if we were in a capitalist country, Jim would have invented a new form of sliced bread, but alas we are unmotivated by our available housing and food.”
id be shocked if i didnt see a gavel response from a lemmy.ml user. all the best.
low effort
Refusing to answer and instead insulting the user based on instance usage is childish.
i shrugged off an insult and you figured to dog pile on pretending that i’m the insulter.
You decided to say something really ill-informed on a platform with many Communists, you could have just disengaged.
really not ill-informed. this isnt a communist platform, and i’m aware that i’m pushing against a hive mind.
You’re on Lemmy.ml, which is admin’d and moderated by Communists, and Lemmy itself is made by Communists. It isn’t a hive mind.
Most people who oppose socialism haven’t lived in a socialist country. Meanwhile I’ve lived my whole life under capitalism and can see it doesn’t work for the vast majority of the population, or for the planet as a whole.
Most of the world is capitalist, and most of the world is poor.
Can you explain what you mean by “lowest common denominator” as well as the bits on “no incentives or rewards for innovation?” The USSR was one of the mosy scientifically advanced countries in the 20th century.
