socialism never works

lemmynsfw.com has been defederated - sh.itjust.works

Edit - This is a post to the meta group of Blåhaj Lemmy. It is not intended for the entire lemmyverse. If you are not on Blåhaj Lemmy and plan on dropping in to offer your opinion on how we are doing things in a way you don’t agree with, your post will be removed. == A user on our instance reported a post on lemmynsfw as CSAM. Upon seeing the post, I looked at the community it was part of, and immediately purged all traces of that community from our instance. I approached the admins of lemmynsfw and they assured me that the models with content in the community were all verified as being over 18. The fact that the community is explicitly focused on making the models appear as if they’re not 18 was fine with them. The fact that both myself and one a member of this instance assumed it was CSAM, was fine with them. I was in fact told that I was body shaming. I’m sorry for the lack of warning, but a community skirting the line trying to look like CSAM isn’t a line I’m willing to walk. I have defederated lemmynsfw and won’t be reinstating it whilst that community is active.

I’ll get hate here (this instance/community) but I don’t give a fuck.

There’s more than one way to skin a cat. I don’t care if it’s welfare capitalism, UBI, socialism or fucking whatever. SOMEONE needs to do something SOMETHING to give people that work less profitable/high class/whatever jobs a decent humane life.

Everyone’s work is important, otherwise it wouldn’t be done. And they deserve to live a decent life.

Does that mean they go on intercontiental holidays to 5 star hotels? No. Does that mean they can afford food, heat, shelter and the ability to start a family? Yes.

Shouldn’t you? I mean this is pretty basic fucking knowledge for some ways to go about it, and it’s not like you have to go 100% all in either. Also, what you’re describing is the core ideology of social democracy with a strong welfare system. It seems like you live in a country so completely fucked in all available directions of politics, and in that process forgot what workers rights were 50 years ago.

I live in Norway. People in otherwise underpaid professions such as teaching can afford to go on intercontinental holidays. Though I will agree that staying at a 5 star hotel would be a silly expense. That stuff still requires the perks of exploitative capitalism, for which teaching is too useful.
