Copyparty is not that known I guess.

I love baking biscuits but is a good gateway to moving to baking bread… and space cake.

When you colour 80% of all bike lanes orange the defence that a driver didn’t know it was a bike lane becomes moot.

I’m not talking about trust, I mean two enclosed single bicycle lanes that merge at a bicycle crossing before entering an enclosed 2 way bicycle lane.

The dutch solved this by colouring the bike lane orange. Yes occasionally we add bollards but the entrances to 2 lanes often end/start in protected intersections

Nice try Peter Thiel you ain’t getting my birth year that easily.

This is news to me that the meat industry isn’t already owned by billionaires.

Classic Stazi - yes any form of criticism of Marx’s socialism must be stamped out and silenced

Thanks yes this seems to be a mistake, reading more into history I’ve even found that the push for better working conditions has come from elected social democrats and political union parties (1906 in the Netherlands) long before the Russian revolution.

Sorry I should have used effectively, being ideological about democratic centralism is nice until you find yourself organising a workers demonstration against one.

Every single piece of information Marx Lenin Mao Stalin points to: the replacement of power of any method a worker has, in a capitalist democracy and migrate it after the revolution to a state held apparatus above which the flawed democratic-centralism takes grasp to hold absolute power. At which point strengthening a secret police is all that’s needed to let fascism in from the back door. At least Mussolini stated his intentions from the beginning.

The whole mass of the people must take part in it. Otherwise, socialism will be decreed from behind a few official desks by a dozen intellectuals.

Classic Marxist Leninist.

workers ownership of the means of production

Great lets try that out; how much ownership do you think a worker has over the means of production, without the ability to choose a union not pre-appointed by the state?

Communism (not DemSoc) is an economic system where a government essentially owns the population ruled by an autocrat, under the veil of a single union. The ML way of democratic centralism completely fails when the opposition is blocked from voting which assures total enforced hegemony.

Independent unions are illegal in China with only the All-China Federation of Trade Unions(ACFTU) permitted by the Chinese state and the Chinese Communist Party to operate.

This doesn’t sound like a good idea.

Public ownership of production: isn’t that advocacy for public sector like public transport, state run utilities, stronger backing of unions.

Is this lemmy.world or lemmy.usa?

[…] a surprisingly low number given the junction’s complexity and heavy usage. This paradox suggests that the very complexity that makes drivers nervous might actually be its greatest safety feature, forcing everyone to approach with extreme caution.

It’s almost like making the road harder to navigate make drivers slow down similar to crimping the road.

The Dutch segregate sports cyclists (wielrenners) from bicycle users (fietsers) for a reason. The appropriate way to do this is to take over one lane but these adrenaline pumped wielrenners only care about themselves and their racing performance.

lol I missed the joke on the “your right to push back on this”
