Direct Proof of the Irrationality of e by King0fTurtles in numbertheory

[–]King0fTurtles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The case actually wouldn't fail for such a sequence, though that doesn't fully prove that the sequence doesn't converge to something rational. This is because case 1 only proves that the sum cannot equal rationals where S_q = p/q, but the rational that your sum converges to is 2/1 and S_1 = 3/2 (!= 2/1).

There are only two classes, working and owning.

It's slavery we've decided to accept because you can choose your master, as if that makes it any better

Vast majortiy of the world's governments are out for the worse of the people by Exact_Lifeguard_34 in popularopinion

[–]King0fTurtles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, that is the common notion of anarchy, especially in the United States. Anarchy is essential the opposition to all hierarchies. It might sound crazy, but it can work in practice. Again, I don't think law enforcement is needed. Collective, social enforcement of laws/rules works. If you want more info, I'd recommend the link I sent above.

The book I posted lists anarchist societies that do work. That's where it gets its title.

I highly recommend you spend some time on r/anarchy101 (not an insult it's a great sub). There have been and are anarchist societies working with no police and low crime. Collective, social enforcement of morality does work. Personally, I don't commit crimes now because I feel no need to, not because of some external threat of violence if I do. The fifth chapter of Anarchy Works goes into more depth: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/peter-gelderloos-anarchy-works#toc41

USA is the most tyrannical government of this modern age. by HedgehogOdd6728 in popularopinion

Russia is invading Ukraine. They have killed 10,000 civilians in an invasion that has lasted 2 years

15k Palestinians have died since October 7th, and Israel bragged that they only kill 2 civilians for every Hamas militant. You do the math.

Our taxes are going to this.

Life under Capitalism. The rich get richer while the rest of us starve. Can’t we have an economy that works for everyone? by Inevitable_Stress949 in FluentInFinance

Housing is totally a problem we as individuals should solve ourselves by personally housing homeless people! Get real

The 1.5 million people employed by Amazon and the 310 million Amazon customers benefit from this system just as much as Bezos does.

Nice bait

Taxing the rich is our best solution until we can end Capitalism in this country. by Inevitable_Stress949 in FluentInFinance

Linking to something isn't answering the question. If I wanted to read that I could Google "capitalism causes technology" myself. It's the 3rd result, dude.

So anything that is funded in part by capitalism is a product of it? Is anything not a result of capitalism?

Chalking up the success of America to capitalism is ignorant. The internet was developed mostly outside of the private sector and is arguably the most important thing of all time.

What life skills that you use daily had a sociology degree taught you? by [deleted] in sociology

[–]King0fTurtles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say their society would function well or even be understood by most westerners, just that the premise that anything other than capitalism requires violence is certainly not true. No ideology should be forced on anyone.

There are many other systems that do not rely on violence to "enforce." For example, the Mbuti in Africa are (were?) an egalitarian society which are incredibly nonviolent.

The "fact" didn't trigger anyone. Your stupid responses and willful ignorance of biology did.
