  • I’ll adress all your questions and concerns:

    1. What is the Anarcho-Syndicalist view on world trade? While we support local communities we also explicitly dont believe in the concept of borders. Furthermore international syndicates are used under Anarcho-Syndicalism to facilitate trade and cooperation.
    2. Is Anarcho-Syndicalism ablest? Absolutely not, while we talk a lot about workers we belive eveyone has the right to life, freedom, housing, and bread. Even those who cannot work still recive support, those who require additional assistance would be given by mutal aid organizations and community effort.
    3. How does Anarcho-Syndicalism define community? A local collection of workers who look out for eachother through mutal aid
    4. Can Anarcho-Syndicalism build advanced medical infrastructure? Absolutely, if anything medical advancements would be greater. Medical students wouldn’t have to worry about being shackled to crippling debt, insurance companies wouldn’t be able to extort people, no profit incentive and no patents would insure the prices for medical technology remains low, and hospitals would generally speaking recive more funding.





  • “Erm acturally thats tankie propaganda, dont you know our Good Guy Candidate™ isnt Fascist he’s actually Fascist Lite™ which is totally different. Yes he’s going to blindly support genocide, yes he’s going to support imperialism, and no he wont do a damn thing to help the workers, but you see these silly graphs we made up say the economy is going and therefore our guy is qualified. Now blindly support the candidate and the party or I’ll downvote you and call you a Tankie or a Russian bot.”

  • As an Anarcho-Syndicalist we dont support government owned social programs because we prefer community based and worker ran solutions to issues like housing, food, and education. Furthermore most social ills that exist today are a direct or indirect effect of capitalism, the problems that cannot be solved by simply destroying capitalism can be solved with more syndicates.






  • I have used Windows all my life, and I have some questions

    This is a great place to ask

    But all I know about Linux is 1: it’s a cantankerous beast that can smell your fear and lack of computer skills and 2: that’s apparently not true any more?

    Yes and no, the primary skill that you will be tested when using Linux is the ability to learn new things and adapt to changes. People misinterpret this as being complicated when in many cases its simpler but different.

    I’m pretty much a fairly casual PC-user, I don’t do much more than play games. So I wrote down some questions I had about Linux.Will my ability to play games be significantly affected compared to Windows?

    Depends, if you mostly play single player games then most likley not. If you play online games than maybe not also maybe not.

    Can I mod games as freely and as easily as I do on Windows?If a program has no Linux version, is it unusable, or are there workarounds?

    Depends on the game, for something like Minecraft or Doom youll be fine but games with less support may not have good Linux support.

    Can Linux run programs that rely on frameworks like .NET or other Windows-specific libraries?

    Yes, Wine has alternative frameworks and libraries

    How do OS updates work in Linux? Is there a “Linux Update” program like what Windows has?

    OS updates can either be done through the package manager or your distributions GUI software center

    How does digital security work on Linux? Is it more vulnerable due to being open source?

    On the surface it may seem so because more CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exploits) are found on Linux but they’re also patched faster than Windows and mostly before they find their way into the wild. In addition Linux is designed more securely such as, using repos (so software can be verified as legitimate), not allowing user mode software to run in kernel mode (so no anticheat), and having more eyes on the code.

    Is there integrated antivirus software, or will I have to source that myself?

    Not really and nobody uses it, it’s like MacOS in that regard

    Are GPU drivers reliable on Linux?Can Linux (in the case of a misconfiguration or serious failure) potentially damage hardware?

    For the most part yes but keep in mind there are new drivers that arent ready to be used, as long as you stay on stable drivers you’ll be fine. Also hardware damage will most likley only occur if you do heavy overclocking and. Ignore temps.

    And also, what distro might be best for me? Pop_OS


  • I have absolutely no faith in this project whatsoever, there is a 99% chance itll fail like all Linux phones and tbh they all deserve to. Not a single mobile Linux OEM has even the slightest idea what the average person wants, hell im a highly technical Linux enthusiast and it doesn’t even do what I want. The average person wants:

    1. Long battery life
    2. Fast charging
    3. A good screen
    4. Decent performance
    5. A good camera
    6. Software good enough to tie everything together in a cohesive experience (this one especially they lack in)

    Meanwhile more technical people (such as myself) want:

    1. Good security (both hardware level security and software level security)
    2. A relockable bootloader (with it being locked from shipping)
    3. Extended software support (including firmware and microcode updates)
    4. The ability to seamlessly work on multiple different sim networks
    5. Longevity (I should not need to get a new one once every three years)
    6. Reparability
    7. Software that can accommodate technical usecases without falling apart

    Meanwhile Linux phones:

    1. Can be a portable programming station (why??? No genuenly why would anyone want to do this??? Just get a cheap Thinkpad)
    2. Can run desktop software (ok thats neat I guess but not neat when all the software is optimized for desktops, the downsides to this completely overshadow any tiny benefit this may provide)
    3. Have support for multiple mobile Linux distros (congratulations, you have multiple choices and they all suck)
    4. Have support multiple WMs/DEs (and they’re all either under maintained, not maintained at all, or they just suck)
    5. Have extensive software customization (its a phone, why on earth would I want that???)
    6. Are cheap (sometimes, also I can just get a cheap used Google Pixel 7)
    7. Run faster (except not when you take into account the significantly worse hardware)
