"Human greed" is a lie sold to you by capitalists to convince you that nothing can be better. Read Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution

Additionally, even if "human greed" were some kind of absolute constant, the worst thing we can possibly do is structure our society to reward it. If humans were perfectly greedy and selfish, then the ideal society would be one in which the selfish and greedy course of action is also the one that benefits society as a whole. In other words, a socialist one.

Fuck that, give her a medal and a therapist and send her on her way. Killing this guy was not a crime it was community service.

A cancer can't just stop being cancerous. Calling humans a cancer inherently implies that they should be exterminated, saying "humans are a cancer so maybe they should stop doing cancer stuff" is just incoherent.

Humans aren't a cancer and saying that is ecofascist bullshit. Capitalism is a cancer and it should be exterminated.

Lots of blind people don't read braille for fun. Of course they'll use it to navigate public buildings and such but braille books are crazy expensive, cumbersome, and not typically very well put together.

Nobody's making you overeat garbage food no matter what it costs lol. If it was free would you be 900 pounds? Come on man.

Why should they get a rental property? Why should basic fundamental human necessities of which we have plenty be treated as commodities? You get the house you live in, and I get the house I live in, and if you want to try to extort me for payment for that house no one should support you.

Some very naive people sign up under the mistaken idea that that is what they will be doing. Those naive people are quickly disabused of this notion, and they either quit, are fired, or join in on the corrupt bastardry. There is no such thing as a good cop. What they do is enforce unjust laws, regardless of what they thought they were going to do.

Keep in mind that if you've got 3 bastards in a police department and 17 "good guys" who don't stop those bastards, you have 20 bastards in that department.

Because hexbear is full of socialists and most instances are full of rabid pro-genocide liberals.

You only got replies from hexbear haters so let me balance it out a bit. Hexbear is by far the most LGBT+ friendly instance in the fediverse and has a supermajority of queer users. They're aggressively anti-bigotry in all its forms and are extremely happy to educate and engage in discussions as long as you approach them in good faith.

Most people who go out of their way to shit talk them in the wild are just mad hexbear banned them for saying some racist or homophobic shit

Hexbear is older than most of the fediverse, and didn't have federation enabled for years. It's a very self-sufficient community.
