Dear fellow Earthlings, you have two main options:
- A post-capitalist future.
- A post-human future.
Pick wisely.
@aral It seems many would choose the latter, just to be "on the safe side" of the "political reality."
@aral Just got sent this link to a Guardian essay on neoliberalism, which i thought was a good read and timely.

@aral The more I watch the news, the more I tend to the latter.
@aral while I appreciate the sentiment, I'm fresh off learning a bit about Diocletian. Really large scale central planning led to a worthless currency, barter economy, serfdom and the middle ages. Let's not do that again.
@aral Post Human wäre besser für die Umwelt.
@aral i'm leaning towards post-human, for similar reasons as others have pointed out: probably safest bet for the other habitants of the planet.
@aral what does your alternative to capitalism look like?
@aral what about both
(wishing for a communist catgirl future)
@aral hard choice... maybe the post-human future is the best at this point.
