    Yeah. Wealth generates wealth. Wealth is power. You got born into a world owned mostly by the super rich, and therefore don’t have equal opportunities.

    No amount of redistribution will prevent this state from re-emerging until wealth accumulation is made impossible.

    It’s pure luck: even if the playing field gets completely leveled once, without systemic changed some people will luck out, get wealthy again, buy newspapers and apartment complexes and therefore monopolizes public expression of opinion and profit from living space.

    Capitalist anarchism doesn’t exist. Capitalism is a form of unjust hierarchy (or if you want to stick to the literal meaning of “anarchism”: capitalism is a way to create rulers)

    There are capitalist anti-statists, bit being against states isn’t sufficient to make you an anarchist for above reasons.







  • It’s been great almost since I started using it.

    I started using it exactly when 4.0 came out, because that’s when I started using Linux and I thought learning 3 didn’t make sense. But 4 only got stable around 4.4 I think. The problem was that 4.0 wasn’t intended to be for end users yet, but distributions didn’t realize that and packaged it right away.

    KDE didn’t repeat that mistake. 5.0 was almost completely smooth sailing (some applications took a long time to port and looked ugly, that’s it), and 6.0 was completely seamless.
