Reading about FOSS philosophy, degoogling, becoming against corporations, and now a full-blown woke communist (like Linus Torvalds)

    Hah what? So you are running from bad corporations to daddy government? Somwhere I took another turn because this journey turned me into a libertarian.

      Why do so many people think left vs right is government vs no government? It’s fucking baffling. You think leftists just love the government? Just… why?? Who told you that? Why do you believe them?

      “So long as the state exists there is no freedom. When there is freedom, there will be no state.”

      So much love for state, here…

      I’ll tell you something that might shock you. I’m pretty much a communist. I also hate the state. Does that confuse you? It shouldn’t!

        I’m sorry I assumed Marxism-Leninism instead of libertarian socialism because of the predominant tankie culture here on lemmy.

          Don’t let the tankies steal the term “communism”.

          I even don’t want to give up Marx.

      You know that Rothbard stole that term from anarcho-communists (libertarian socialists), right?

      Edit: Thought you meant right-wing libertarianism. Was confused, since IMHO Marx (without Lenin/Mao/etc.) is actually quite compatible with left-wing libertarianism. Even if he had a personal feud with Bakunin.

        In theory it’s great, but have you seen the complete fucking braindead idiots we share this world with?

          You do realize that some of these idiots have way more power (money) than they should have any right to? Elon Musk, Bobby Kotick, …
