Mark Zuckerberg wants Meta to launch its own prediction market
How come humanity gives so many resources & time to realize the hallucinations of somebody who didn't have a single original idea in 42 years, while the people who have solutions to solve our actual problems are left without them?

Good point, I wonder how we can change that, do you have any reasonable ideas? :)
itβs all about little battles for me
choosing FOSS software and open services
voicing my opposition to the greedy
exercising earnest support for every person I encounter (since as far as I know, I only encounter working class people)
repairing instead of trashing
volunteering to help the most vulnerable in my community
cooking meals instead of eating out
choosing free-range when selecting eggs, etc.
growing a few veggies each year
and many more
this enhances my local experiences and maximizes my power to affect the world
great list, awesome work friend! I try my best to do the same, but I allocate a lot of my resources into initiating macro changes, however low the chance of success, the local work is definitely more reasonable and prone to success :)
Any heinous thing that sucks money and power into fewer hands they want. I'm convinced if hostile aliens arrived and starting sending out fleets of mind-control drones, billionaires would be like "actually we've spearheaded our own exciting brain drone program that makes you work until you die"
haha yeah they would probably sign up them aliens to Instagram, so they can be integrated into the work force asap!
