Articles whining about ProblemX are tedious in a capitalist system.
Convert all of that whining energy into improving the situation, so as to do more than perpetuate it.
Now, if there is substantial ReasonY that ProblemX cannot be addressed, there is genuine basis for complaint.
- mkmk2 6y agoSure, whining is tedious, but polling a populace to get an overview of public opinion seems to be a different thing.
- ClumsyPilot 6y agoOk, so we should have no articles about Covid19, climate change, Boeing crash or 2008. May i ask how does the public even realise a problen exists? Secondly, if you are going to make that argument, you should highlight our system is democratic. Slaves in enjoyed capitalist system too, you know.
- aspenmayer 6y agoSlavery still exists. Illegally, in places many don’t go, for various reasons, all of which are wrong, because slavery. And also legally, in American prisons as forced servitude, which is also wrong, because slavery.
- ClumsyPilot 6y agoI am not clear what point you are making
- lm28469 6y ago> you should spend time fixing the problems also > don't talk about the problems How does that work ? No one is going to solve these multi faceted issues alone in their garage. Creating a discussion around them is part of the solution
- Nasrudith 6y agoAnd what to do thet do when solving it? Talk about possible solutions. Instead whining is constantly "someone else should do it"! Which is neither helpful nor wise.
- lm28469 6y agoWhat if someone who never thought about the issue and doesn't talk about it in his circles find this article, start thinking about it and end up finding your "solutions" ? If you don't want to read it you don't have to, I really don't see the issue here. Doing something, even as small as that, is still better than doing nothing or actively trying to shut down people talking about it...
- smitty1e 6y agoMy point here is that: word != deed If we hate Twitter, but aren't using, for example, Mastadon, then what are we doing to inject competition?
