minus-squareRampantParanoia2365@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up28arrow-down6·1 年前I think the whole lack of sustainable fusion thing may be a slightly larger factor than capitalism.

Basically, technologies like sustainable fusion, replicators, etc, are the result of a post-scarcity leave-no-one-behind philosophy, rather than its prerequisites.

minus-squareClent@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down2·1 年前Because we are stuck in a capitalistic world? Even if something starts without capitalistic intentions, capitalism will consume it. The internet is an example. Hell, water is an example.
