crows call me breadladyNo one needs to starve. No one needs to freeze. No one needs to die. There is enough for everyone. More empty homes than all the people without them, more food than grocers can even sell. The labor and the materials to end scarcity exist now. It is not a far-off dream. We can end scarcity in this life.
Ryusei (obsolete/lurker)@garbados Artificial scarcity in the name of profit is one of the most egregious things about the modern world
@And_Zoidberg it’s nightmarish. you stand hungry at grocery windows and know they’re just gonna throw it away and by golly when they do you hope they don’t lock the bins, or you’re gonna stay hungry. you find yourself without reliable shelter amid neighborhoods of FOR RENT signs in front of empty homes. normies cannot stop looking when they think you can’t see them; they pretend you do not exist when you can. warehouses of vital meds get stuck behind procedure and inaction, creating shortages.

Crom, Kobold King@garbados let's do it
Ɠεɱɩoɠ@garbados @jjg Do you guys have a good site to send ppl to? I mean I know already that we (in the west at least) waste over half of our food and so on. Don't have good links on empty homes, but I know china for e.g. has entire empty cities...
Thanks when you have time to link me up. If there isn't somthing comprehensive already, we should make one.

NitroNills@garbados except everyone needs to die, I dig your points!
blankideogram@garbados In fact we're destroying our planet with the excess of stuff to satisfy needs, but still people suffer.
Yeah cool.

predator8bit@garbados except for the fact that everyone needs to die, life is finite and that is what makes it meaningful.
the swagon@garbados if I can add: if your solution to these problems isn't to feed the hungry and house the homeless freely? You're pro-death and also fuck you to hell and back
Ceratomia@garbados Agreed. When people say overpopulation is the world's disease they are (in)directly saying it's just pragmatism for people, especially the poor who tend to have more children, to suffer and die. Inequity is the world's disease and that can be treated if ppl stop blaming a lack of resources on the same ppl who are provided with the least amount of them in the first place.
