Turns out people are actually more productive if you don’t force them to do it in order to live.

I never said anything about not voting for industrial action. But if you look at it logically, if there’s no industrial action with or without consumer choices the world burns, but if there is industrial action then with or without consumer choices (partly because the industrial action would alter what choices are available) the world has a chance to survive. So in our current situation devoting energy and thought to consumer choices is not just pointless if you would otherwise be working towards industrial action in any capacity it is actively detrimental (hence why BP created it as a concept)

No amount of individual choices can save the planet. The climate change causes by corporations is sufficiently world ending. So even if literally every single person on the planet went vegan it wouldn’t be enough. The idea of a personal carbon footprint was created by BP in order to make people put the blame on themselves. The only way to stop it is mass industrial action. Personal choice, at least at this point, is completely irrelevant.

If they’re using “communism” to control the people, then they’re not really using communism

What you’re probably noticing is that a lot of people don’t have the ability or tools to figure out how the world works themselves. So like we always have done as a species we defer to those that claim to know the answers we seek. It used to be that religion was the place we would get those answers. Nowadays science and the scientific method has been shown to be the most effective and reliable source for answers about the world, time and time again. So people “blindly follow” science because it has been shown to be the best and most trustworthy source of information. Not to say it is perfect in every way, but there isn’t anything else even slightly close to it’s ability to give concrete answers about the universe.

It’s that we don’t like the company google probably. But also it could be a combination of the factors you listed.

In an immediately seen sense, the US is not really committing a genocide. However, the corporations that control the US through lobbying and bribes and whatever else are literally destroying the planet past the point where humans can survive. So, while before we all burn your living conditions might be better, the country is working towards a far greater death count.

Ironically, Russia doesn’t even follow communist ideals. They are communist in name only.
