major part of it, but I also wouldn’t want to live in a world where we could only get aspirin from willow bark. We either wouldn’t have enough aspirin or we wouldn’t have any more willow trees. Medicines derived from the actual source aren’t possible on a global scale in most cases.

Capitalism is a blight on society and has lead to countless deaths. But in a utopia where money doesn’t exist and people create medicine for the world only to help people wit

I agree with you but in that case, the need to synthesize it could be made entirely based on practicality rather than profit.

Say me say Many moni, Say me say many, many, many

Ill take a stab at it.

Action Plan for Societal Rights

This plan outlines potential actions for enabling certain societal rights. These measures might need substantial changes and persistent, collective action from various stakeholders, including governments, non-profit organizations, businesses, communities, and individuals.

1) Right to Solidarity

• Educate the public about their rights to organize, unionize, and engage in collective bargaining.
• Advocate for and draft legislation to safeguard and expand these rights, including during strikes.
• Establish legal aid funds for workers facing legal action when involved in strikes.

2) Right of Initiative and Right to Recall

• Lobby for legislative reforms permitting citizens to initiate legislation or recall elected officials.
• Launch educational campaigns to inform citizens about these rights and how to exercise them.

3) Right to Free Software

• Encourage the development and use of open-source software through public funding.
• Urge government and institutions to adopt open-source software and contribute to open-source projects.
• Promote legislation ensuring proprietary software companies provide public access to their source code or offer free alternatives.

4) Right to a Third Place

• Invest in public infrastructure, such as parks, community centers, and libraries, which can function as third places.
• Encourage businesses and developers to incorporate community spaces into their plans.
• Implement urban planning policies prioritizing the creation of spaces for community interaction.

5) Freedom from Eviction

• Advocate for housing as a human right and push for legislation that protects against eviction, especially during rent strikes or for vulnerable communities.
• Invest in affordable housing projects and increase public housing funding.
• Enforce rental control policies and establish legal funds to assist tenants facing eviction.

6) Right to Democratic Education

• Advocate for democratic and inclusive education systems allowing students, parents, and teachers a voice in decision-making.
• Encourage educational policies promoting critical thinking, creativity, and active participation in society.
• Develop training programs for teachers to implement democratic education in classrooms.

7) Right to Cross Borders

• Advocate for fair and compassionate immigration policies.
• Support international cooperation to address the root causes of forced migration.
• Improve legal and humanitarian assistance for refugees and asylum seekers.

8) Right to be Forgotten

• Advocate for digital privacy laws, including the right to be forgotten, and lobby for their implementation.
• Raise public awareness about digital privacy and how to protect it.
• Encourage technology companies to design privacy-preserving systems.

9) Right to Purpose/Freedom from Meaningless Labor

• Support the development of employee-owned cooperatives and other forms of worker self-management.
• Advocate for job guarantee programs and universal basic income to offer economic security.
• Encourage businesses to provide meaningful work and ensure fair wages, good working conditions, and employee participation in decision-making.

10) The Right to an Employee Fund

• Encourage legislation mandating companies to allocate a portion of profits for an employee fund.
• Create awareness and provide education about the benefits of such a fund.

This plan, if progressively implemented with broad societal consensus, can help attain the listed rights without necessitating a complete societal revolution. However, these steps require consistent efforts, funding, cooperation, and most importantly, political will.

You’re almost right. Modern medicine needs to synthesize natural compounds to profit fully from them. They can’t just use natural remedies and present them to patients because they can’t patent them.

Until the streaming services can come together to create an open, decentralized protocol, they don’t get my money.

Piracy is an accessibility issue.

You’re right.

Many of these awful pieces keep appearing in my “for you” feed. He is deliberately pushing alt-right trash onto individuals.

This is good.
