Childbirth costs isn’t what’s preventing people from having babies though

Je ne sais pas si voyager est le réseau où ce genre d’articles ont le plus besoin d’être repostés, mais je me permet d’y joindre une entrevue récente d’un ex reporter de l’observatoire de la laïcité qui traite le problème à l’échelle plus large, commentant au passage l’étude IFOP de l’article : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DKV8ZyC6MM

The first disclaimer in the video is the most relatable thing I’ve read in a while

I love these guys so much, what they are doing is truly incredible. Immich is how I started self hosting and they’ll be the first 100 bucks I take off my first big boy paycheck.

I am more and more learning about how personal interests often conflict with societal interests (as simple as it may sound). We are globally going to understand soon enough that democracy isn’t worth shit as long as feedback loops that allow personal interests to creep in are “meta”.

Loads of people have lots of ideas on how to run countries and communities, but ideology and doctrines are not really proven concepts.

And the other big problem is that to declare new forces within existing infrastructure (creating counter power to prevent positive feedback mechanisms), societal interest must still be powerful enough to not require a revolution to be enacted in a sensible and effective way.

A lot of countries have already in my mind gone way over that threshold, it’s recognisable when actual societal interests, long term initiatives and big questions about the future are not asked anymore because the political power is working at consolidating their position and redistributing favours they owe to the soon to be oligarchy.

But you can’t really allow anyone to be a defeatist because cynism is the last nail in the coffin, staying awake and fight hoping that enough will join soon enough is the only way to keep existing.

Adding components to a system alters the output therefore changing the system.

Si tout le monde se met à utiliser Tor pour aller mater des vidéos de cul le réseau sera instantanément saturé, alors que déjà c’est pas rapide de base.
