We have a fair amount to show for it (like over 750 overseas military bases), it’s just that very little of it is for the working class.

Because bad pun memes are the bee’s knees.
Damn, out of 4,000 years of literature.
MMT isn’t a tool for modeling all of inflation’s factors. It’s simply a description of how sovereign fiat money works. Some people mistakenly (or knowingly, for disparagement or promotion) attribute things to MMT that it just isn’t.
This graph gives the false impression that federal taxes actually pay for anything.
I don’t think Metafilter is structured as a coop (nor is it federated), but you do have to pay to join, and the workers do get paid. It is being converted into a nonprofit. It is long-established and changes very little, so their software development costs must be very small.
lemmy.sdf.org is run by SDF Public Access Unix System, which might be somewhat similar, but I don’t know the details of their structure.
It appears that the dead website that @rotmulaaginskyrim@programming.dev mentioned was not much more sophisticated than what @sub_ubi@lemmy.ml suggested, “federated reviews”.

Nothing is stopping you from creating a Lemmy community for general product/service reviews, but I doubt it would work very well nor be very popular. But ActivityPub-based federated reviews sounds like an intriguing idea. I don’t know if/how ActivityPub can handle structured fields (https://web.archive.org/web/20220608160103/https://www.exitreviews.com/submission), and you’d probably want a search system that leverages those fields.
Other than your own blog? AFAIK not really. For most services, Yelp? For most products, Amazon?
Glad what you got what you were looking for, as opposed to a “dumbass bad faith take” 😂
Also, best of luck with your current candidate, @jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.world, keyboard warrior.
Zionists are as bad as the KKK, so the last presidential candidate would be Kamala Harris just last month.
Whether they put them all on a single page or on a dozen is neither here not there. They’re all intentionally, publicly interlinked. I just started with their links on https://lemm.ee/u/shinigamiookamiryuu profile, and followed the links on those profiles, etc., as anyone can.
That person doxes themself all over the internet. They went out of their way to link all their own accounts together.

I think you know this isn’t normal. You know people twice as old who are in less pain.
because I put the effort in.

Wut. You’re a human Markov chain. A firehose of nonsense and drama stirring.
The discussion is about why progress has gone backwards on societal acceptance.
A primary reason that progress is going backwards in many capitalist states is because fascism is on the rise in those states.
Why is fascism on the rise? Is it a meme that just randomly started spreading throughout the imperial core, for no particular reason? No, there is a material basis for it: it is because capitalism is in decay in those states. And fascism doesn’t simply run on vibes: fascist movements are funded by the wealthy, by billionaire oligarchs like Elon Musk and by people who own car dealerships & restaurant franchises. Trumpism: It’s Coming From the Suburbs
Specifically in the US, there is also the ratchet effect, which has been causing politics on the whole to lurch ever more rightward.
And it doesn’t take a Marxist to see what’s going on. Chris Hedges is a liberal who saw it coming 14 years ago in Death of the Liberal Class, long before Trump entered politics.
In any case your answer to the question was, “good intentioned politicians making deals with homophobic devils so to speak in order to save other people.” I don’t think that is a very good answer at all.
What little I know about about today’s Iraq comes from Hakim’s personal stories on The Deprogram podcast.
I think the US military can’t get out soon enough. I hope Iraq joins BRICS, dedollarizes, and has continued success with BRI. The neocolonial * imperial core* is no one’s ally, and is in decline.
