Honestly, with the way Mexicos leadership/politics and economy is heading, it’s positioned to be a decent power, and potentially be a more desirable location to live than the US sometime in the next century. Big fan of AMLO and hope he is setting them on a good trend. It’s probably only a matter of time before the US intervenes and makes sure they don’t go too far left though, so maybe I shouldn’t get my hopes up.

It is when you start assuming non-bigots are bad people because of what they look like.

Tbh a good percentage of Americans would turn down a million dollars if it meant minorities didn’t get it.

I have the Leaf 2 and would highly recommend. Works great, and is much better for your eyes. I use it every day.

The distinction between socialism and communism gets a little silly imo. Some people claim that communism is a stateless society, and that countries like the Soviet Union practiced socialism, which is just a stepping stone towards communism. You seem to be implying the opposite. Either way, there’s like a million different things you could call these ideologies (state-socialism, market socialism, democratic-socialism, communism, anarcho-communism, Stalinism, etc)

Ultimately, I just want workers to own the means of production in my city, whatever you want to call that.

I hope it isn’t locked into a liberalism ideology too much. If I want to make food and housing a human right, workers employed by the state, and/or democratically owned workplaces do I have the option for that?

My utopian city has no landlords or bourgeoisie and I hope I can make that happen.

We set ours on a pedestal and give them a megaphone though.

I’ll throw a shoutout to Onyx Boox, rather than Kobo or Kindle. It runs Android, can run literally any file type, doesn’t lock you into an ecosystem with DRM where you don’t really own the books you buy. I despise Kobo and Kindle for that reason.

But I totally agree about how nice e-ink is. It’s literally as good as paper. Maybe better. Soooo nice.

I got an Onyx Boox Leaf 2 e-reader, and it’s fantastic, I’d highly recommend it. The great thing about it, is that it runs Android, which means you can get Hoopla, Libby, Overdrive, the Barnes and Noble app, the Kindle app, etc, so all your ebooks are in one place and can be read on your device.

I get all my ebooks for free, by getting public domain stuff from these two places. PG has more selection but Standard has better formatting and is just generally higher quality. This ereader has paid itself off in like 6 months with the money I saved on buying books.

I rent ebooks from the library using both Hoopla, and Libby.
