I'll start, I missed the outdoor cats struggle session so i don't know what its deal was except a vague idea that outdoor cats were bad, so I've let my two cats stay being outdoor cats because I feel bad locking them inside, like I want to give them some experience of freedom to go where they please so they can live more fulfilling lives

Edit: also kruschev is imo a lot better than most hexbear users give him credit for

All vegans are faking it to make me (a man who only eats pepperoni pizza) feel morally inferior. After all, nobody actually eats vegetables, right? anakin-padme-4

Something about Dengists vs Maoists could work for a struggle session.

In particular we need more old school Maoists that believe China could have achieved it's current position sooner without Deng's reforms. Then we need more Dengists that say that Deng was just continuing on from the foundation Mao laid. And then...

Alright, for a serious question: I have always wondered and never really found a satisfying answer to why something like Cybersyn doesn't currently exist in any socialist states. I'm sure that it's complicated and multifaceted and there's a lot to say about material conditions and internal politics and all that jazz, which is surely a lot of juicy stuff to get people arguing over.

I'm also specifically wondering about the role that 3D printing and CNC might or should have in a more automated Cybersyn-like society. It feels like that technology has the potential of creating a shift towards extremely local production for a lot of things, which I think would be really good for the environment, for building local community, and for strengthening individual freedom.
