Ok great some people affected liked it. You win and have a huge penis.

That does not mean it is popular here and I still don’t see a way forward for it.

Until we all see that, we will generally bounce between unregulated capitalism and (what I favor) which is well regulated capitalism with worker and environmental protections.

Biden won, BTW.

You didn’t address any of my questions. If this stuff is so popular, why isn’t it used more? How do you propose to overcome the objections of the vast majority of Americans and Europeans, including the rich and powerful?

Very glib. My point remains though - if this stuff were popular, it would be used more. So why don’t we have it in the US? How do you propose to get around that?

50s now, so went to college during reunification.

I know several former East Germans. None of them was happy. They all agree that things are better now. You don’t have a good example.

To the extent that the bourgeoisie are able to vote, buy political ads, hire private police, use private schools which reinforce their preferences, etc this will never fly. Again you need to find a third way that is popular. My solution is regulation, but I would happily jump on a bandwagon that has people on it. GDR is not that bandwagon.

This has never been reduced to practice. Completely theoretical. You need to find people where they are, not where they should be.

Western culture won’t work like that. Germany is about as far as we go, and that’s still capitalism.

Sure yes but I don’t see a workable alternative.

No it won’t.

Add glp1s to all sugar ingredients in processed food.

Eh, regulations are generally in collaboration with the government and the governed. Smart industry partners know the political process provides air cover, legally and morally.

Flock should be pushing for new regs here and for this guy to be prosecuted. It would make everyone more comfortable with the cameras.

Unfortunately all farming - including vegetables - involves doing unpleasant things to mammals.

Is there a way to direct all the iffy traffic from the tv to a pi hole?

One reason is that our dairy industry needs to find a way to sell a gazillion tons of excess whey protein.

Oh no, not 2 summer holidays!
