Re @northernmnkey @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell It's not about what you'd like to see. It's what will prevent something that is much more painfully transformative, which is global war and displacement of billions. Doing something happily transformative is such a blindingly obvious preferable scenario. We are on the cliff edge.

Re @northernmnkey @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell @NeilMackay That's not going to be sufficient. We need to behave like we did for covid. Actually end the practices and find a way to do without them.

Re @SimonPartridge @northernmnkey @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell @NeilMackay Extinction would be the more comfortable option. We're going to be at war for the last remaining resources. No one will be comfortable.

Re @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @northernmnkey @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell Don't you think workers' collectives are common ownership? That's different from state ownership and from communism where no one owns it because it's not property.

Re @northernmnkey @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell Its problem is that it doesn't understand that it is perpetuating the system of capitalist hierarchy where workers are used as wage slaves to feed the greed of the idle rich. It won't come out and challenge that. There are various alternatives but Labour offers none of them.

Re @northernmnkey @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell @NeilMackay China is already doing far more than we are and from a lower per capita emissions position. This cheap thought that they're not cutting is false. Of course if we keep importing goods from them we're responsible for the emissions from their manufacturing.

Re @CmdrSpace @brokenbottleboy In most rural constituencies anyone who wants the nearest thing they can get to left has to vote Lib Dem. There are more people voting to the left of Tory than Tory plus other far right parties. That's why you can only get the correct answer from the blind policy surveys.

Re @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @northernmnkey @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell Depends what you mean by naked socialism. In blind policy tests the vast majority of people choose to support public funding for health care, social care, roads, education. They think railways & vital infrastructure/utilities should be affordable, publicly owned, not for profit.

Re @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @northernmnkey @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell They think wages should meet the cost of living and that housing should be affordable for families with two wage earners. They think that taxation should be according to the ability to pay and should not exempt the rich or unearned income.

Re @SimonPartridge @brokenbottleboy @dai_alectic @northernmnkey @joycemcm @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell Securing the full fruits of their labour is about wage negotiations and preventing exploitation. That's precisely not compatible with communism. Shared ownership and cooperatives etc reduce the exploitation by keeping the proceeds of the work in the hands of the workers.
