Is there is any hope? (programming.dev)
submitted 3 weeks ago by Tea@programming.dev to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Looking around me:

  • I started seeing people who support capitalist companies instead of non-profits.
  • People losing their freedoms everywhere at high pace.
  • No one is taking any serious steps to stop climate change.
  • A lot of non-profits had seriously down scaled their operations in the last 5 years, most probably more non-profits will get hit hard this year.
  • On a relative scale, no one is fighting to change any of this.

Do we have any hope?

There is hope. There is no hope for the empire, which is doomed, and therefore there is no hope for non-profits as such because they only exist as part of the tax structure of the empire. As the empire collapses, so will non-profits. But also so will for-profits. It's all collapsing as it fails to sustain itself.

In fact, the empire dying is the exact shape of what hope looks like.
